    same problem. model is 42pfp5332d_37. i talked to the tech support
    folks at Philips and they suggested i upgrade to the latest firmware

I have a 42" lg hd tv that for some reason has just started to have a 1" line down the center of the screen . we noticed this a few months ago but didn't know what to do . lately the tv has stoped doing this , mind you i checked every since and its seems to be fine , today i turned it on and the line has moved from the middle to 3/4 of the screen to the right -- so like in the middle the colours fade in and out of the line especially blues and oranges for some reason --
IF ANYONE HAS A FIX PLEASE LET ME KNOW --MY E- MAIL IS ( [email protected]) THATNKYOU

No picture on intermittent basis -

If you have tried using different input devices, looked for loose contacts
in power outlet, RC Jack, cable and connectors, the TV might need service.

The vertical lines/bar are sign of bad T-CON (LCD controller driver) board is bad, it is part of the LCD panel assembly, new screen will be needed, not worth it. You may try reseating the ribbon cable at the panel.

Black Vertical line appeared on my Daewoo Plasma

Bad connection somewhere along the bottom or top of the panel, there are boards most likely along the bottom of the screen that control vertical drawing, a connection that breaks as it is heated up sounds about right. check the connectors along the bottom. Be very careful because if you wreck em the screen is junk. The connector that will be at fault will be in direct line with the black bar.

Sony Trinitron KV-32S40 32" TV problem

This is a simple and common problem. The solder joints on the vertical output IC have cracked loose. I actually did a housecall on the exact same set with the exact same symptoms this morning! A good tech will resolder the pins of the vertical output IC and all other major solder joints on the main board and the set will play fine.

Black Vertical Bar

It will burn into the screen overtime. The Akai units have a resistor on the address board that feeds the PDP that usually has a crack in the solder on one or both ends of it. There are about 4 address boards that are right below the panel itself and the suspect one is the board right below the line that is appearing. Have someone with solder skills repair it.
