Generic problem for all Standard Televisions

White lines across TV screeen (by 2 users)

posted by Sugar55 on May 08, 2008


My TV has little white lines sort of like dashes across the entire width of
the screen. It runs across the heads of the people on the screen and looks like it will soon come down to the eyes

if these lines are just at the top of the picture then i would suspect an electrolytic capacitor in the vertical circuit.

It's data attached to the video stream - closed captioning and the like - whic is always there even when you can't see it. In some TVs in some modes, seeing this is normal, even a feature. CRT and projection TVs: adjust vertical size or position. LCD/Plasma: feature or software flaw.

Worth noting that some cable systems incorrectly format this data, causing it to be displayed by a TV that id functioning normally. Of course, they'll deny this.

That is, of course, unless you have a continuous line and a CRT set. Then there's a flat cap in the vertical out. As a general shotgun assessment, replace all electrolytic capacitors in the vertical section and it will likely be fixed. Nothing to try if you're not electro-tinkering inclined.
