Quite frankly, alot of times a TV like this can be replaced cheaper than it can be fixed.

SOURCE: Black line on screen

It is usually a problem related to the LCD controller board. This board is responsible in delivering the appropriate video to the LCD panel. The problem could be a simple loose connection between this board and the LCD panel or the board is faulty and must be replaced. What you have to do is look for this board on the upper part of the inside back of the TV under a shield. Remove the shield, disconnect the two ribbon cables that run from the board to the LCD panel, clean the terminals with a soft-bristle brush and alcohol making sure no spots or dust are left, reconnect the ribbon cables then reinstall the shield. If it does not solve the problem, replace the LCD controller board. Do not run the TV without the shield and make sure you touch an unpainted part on the TV chassis repeatedly before touching any part.

Feel free to post an update and/or inquiries if there's any.

Sinegalnatal -
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that sounds like your TV is broken. There's very little chance that you'll be able to fix it yourself, as modern televisions are incredibly complicated and dangerous to work in without training. I'd suggest sending it in for service if it's still under warranty. If not, you could look in to a local TV repair place.
Good luck!

WHITE LINES

Hi kmb0516.
Depends how old the set is, if it is more than 5 years old, time to tell it goodbye, if it is less, might be worth fixing.

I believe the problem is in the vertical output section, it sounds like the picture has shrunk.

Hope this helps, Greg.

Black vertical lines on flat screen

All plasma an lcd tvs have boards that control vertical and horizontal output to their respective areas. They are connected to the screen by ribbon cables. If one of these boards fails all together, has a failed chip, a bad connection, or a bad ground somewhere it will result in a black line in the area of that board. A bad ribbon cable connection on the bottom will result in a vertical black bar though the screen. Many times reseating the connection will fix it, if the ribbon cable has been nicked there could be a severed connection. They can sometimes be fixed, but it is a pain. An yes I have done it, and the bar is gone. The same will happen if the chip that outputs to that area opens. The connectors are the first place to look paying close attention to the cable, they are extremely delicate so great care must be taken if you decide to tinker with em, the usually have lift locks that release them, but it is very easy to wreck em. Good luck.

Sylvania TV

this is called a "collapsed" picture. it is normally a simple repair for a tv technician. simple for them but almost impossible for the average consumer. if the set is fairly new and not under warranty it might be worth your effort to take it to a tv repair place and get an estimate on the repair cost and go from there. if it is an old set it is time for a new one.
