Tv picture my tv was working fine then it was dark except for a very small line in the middle. Sound still works. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not sure if this model is the one that has resistors that go bad. You can actually purchase a pack of resistors in a kit. It will come with solder, the resistors and instructions. You can lay the tv out and take the circuit board out to find the blown components, and replace the bad ones. Takes about an hour start to finish and will cost around $65.00. It has been a few years since I did this, so I'm not sure on the price.

So your HDMI inputs work fine without the vertical line?

If every input displays like this, there is a high chance that the problem is in the TV panel itself.

I had something similar with a Sony TV, except the lines were horizontal and the panel was replaced for free under warranty.

These sounds like you have an issue with main board or tcon. Picture slow makes me think this is a communication issue between the tcon and the main board.... This needs a professional diagnostic. The good news is i don't think it is the panel which would make the cost of repair beyond the cost of the tv. If it is in warranty or just out of warranty call sony, sometimes if it is just out of sony's 1 year warranty they will make exceptions. But you need to call them for this exception.
Some solutions are not cut and dried and an on-site diagnostic is best. In your case this is true. I have worked on sony for many years and that symptom (at least the way it is described) is not one I have seen.

just an idea the t.v. is 10 years old ok. Now look at the back can you see inside if so chances are there is a build up of dust which makes a great t.v. wrecker. So vacuum the dust out and see if that helps.

DLP TVs work projecting light throught a tube covered with mirrors, called the light tunnel.

The gray shadow it is something in the middle of the light tunnel, probably a mirror that has gone out of place when you moved the TV.

Your tv has a failure in the vertical circuit. Most likley since you explained that it was coming in and out you could fix it by Resoldering the connections on the vertical output IC. Replacing the vertical output IC would be your next step after this.

The problem lies in you camera's CCD unit which is located on the back of the lens held on be 3 small screws it could also be a setting in the camera's menu try going into the menu and reseting the camera to default it works some times if that does not work than you need the ccd replaced pretty easy fix I fixed 1 with the same problem about two weeks ago for someone it happens I hope this helps you out.

you know its in vertical section, try to look for a capacitor and changed it, this is more of a capacitor problem.

have a tech check your tv the color circuit needs to be looked upon.good luck
