Line, faults & possible causes to LCD & Plasma screen are given with illustrations. You can get an idea about the fault to an extent.

prob a loose wire from the inventer board to the backlight,need to open andsee.should be easy fix

The display is controlled by the T-CON board. You may have faulty contacts on the connector for this board or a bad board. If the connector is cleaned it may improve. Sometimes disconnecting and reconnect the cable can solve the problem. The heating/cooling cycle from turning on the set can make the contacts loose.
IF you know how to work on electronics you can do it yourself or if you have a friend with working knowledge of electronics.

check for a software upgrade by the model number

ck the sound at the headphone jack --if it is ok there the problem is most likely the main board

Hi my name is Roety,
I can help you with your issue ,
If the line is present on all inputs, and effects the TV menu you most likely need a new screen.
You can try changing buffers, reseating cables.

hum bar. possibly related to power supply filtering. sometimes reversing the power plug will help. check cable connections for tight fit.

All I can say is when you watch T.V. the plasmas run off of plasma gas and when you leave something on for so long it burns in the screen. I have the same T.V. and when watching like the weather channel it leaves lines but they go away. If yours are permanent then you can't do anything, but it may help if you go on your remote and go to "menu" then look for "setup" and scroll down with the arrows on your remote. Look for "screen burn protection" and select "white screen". This will make your whole screen white and it may take out the lines. If you let it sit white it won't hurt it. All one color won't hurt, the only thing that hurts is like bright white lines in front of a dark background. Just give your T.V. a break from time to time ESPECIALLY ON VIDEO GAMES. T.V. shows that are HD usually have their channel icons that move or are very dim and they won't hurt. Just go to what I told you and let it sit about 20 minutes, if that doesn't help, then the T.V. you have i believe comes with a 2-year standard warranty and if it's under warranty take it back if you have the reciept. If no reciept then call 1-800-SAMSUNG.
