Question about GE 31GT740 31" TV

Green Lines Horizontally

My GE 31GT740 31" Television is about 3 years old. It has worked fine ever since i have bought it. About a month ago i noticed that there were about 25 lines about a millimeter thick, and about half an inch apart, going horizontally across the screen. Also, the screen is very bright and has a staticy touch to it. I turned off the television and kept it unplugged at the same time for 24 hours straight. I just cant seem to find a solution to this problem. Could you be ever so kind to help me out?

Yeppers its a g2 control on the flyback thats gone or drifted out of alighnment or the flyback its self.Try turning the g2 control dowm till those lines fade. If they wont go away then you need someone to check the Picture tube or its componets driving the crt.

Fridge temp at 48 degrees even though I have it set for 34 degrees. Sounds like fan struggling. Happened 3 months ago but was fine until now. Is this compressor issue or motherboard? Thanks for your help...

The fan surge is caused by the motherboard & will require replacement.
