Black Vertical line appeared on my Daewoo Plasma

My 42" Daewoo Plasma TV has a black 1 3/8" vertical line that appears in the center of the screen. It comes and goes. The TV is 3 years old and out of warranty. Is there anything I can do?
Thank you.

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.

1" black vertical line in center of screen. Sony Plasma.

NOT DEFECTIVE!!!
There are 4 or 5 ribbon cables on the bottom or on one side, they control part of the plasma screen. Check the ribbon cable2_bing.gifnear the black lines. Unplug the ribbon cable and look for black chipson the underside of it, I think they say 100 on them, you need toresolder both ends on each chip. Should fix the black line issue.

Vertical black line on screen

Your set has either a bad driver board or more likely a bad plasma panel.
