Thin horizontal line across picture

Toshiba 2577DB: My TV is working (picture and sound), but there is thin bright white horizontal line across the picture about a quarter of the way down. It moves slightly up and down, so it is not burnt in. When I go into service mode and press '9' for Self Check, the bottom line (labelled 'Block') shows V1 and QV01 in red (sometimes they are white and UV is red. Is this a fault with the tube or can it be fixed?

Same problem, good picture and sound, but there's a thin line that is brighter than the rest of the picture about 1/3'd from the top.

There are white thin horizontal lines across the top 2" of Toshiba 27DF47 TV. Can this be repaired and how much would this repair cost?

Check and replace all the electrolytic capacitors at its vertical output section circuit. There will be five or 6 of them. Replace all.

Only thin white line across my toshiba tv

This is an easy repair if you've ever soldered and would not be too costly for a repair shop to do it for you. The problem is a bad Vertical Output IC (usually mounted on an aluminum heat sink with the part on it labeled LA78?? ) and 1 or 2 bad capacitors. Some times you can even fix the problem by re-soldering the contacts of the IC- To find the IC follow the 4 wires that come from the Yoke (which is a contained coil of wires slipped over the neck of the picture tube(s)) back to the board. 2 of the wires go to the horizontal o/p and 2 to the Vertical o/p the thinner gauge wires are for the vertical.

Tv not working

this symptom, sometimes called the tube light effect, it is characterised by a bright thin horizontal line across the middle of the screen. this symptom is caused by a breakdown in the vertical deflection circuit. hence maybe the trouble maybe in the vertical oscillator, amplifier or output circuits. but if all i have said is not clear to you, better bring it to a qualified tv technician. good luck!
