LCD TV SCREEN PROBLEM RED HORIZONTAL LINES OF DOTS ALL OVER SCREEN PLEASE HELP

it happens on all sources but not on the menue screen it happens on all sources but not on the menue screen

I have seen the same on my Philips 32PFL5332D 32" LCD. It appeared on the regular TV and HDMI input from DVD and the set up menus. I shut it off and unplugged it for a few seconds. It went away after I plugged it back in and turned it back on. I am not sure if it has to do with a build up of static charge. I have heard LCD TVs are prone to being affected by static charge.

Can anybody confirm this?

I have a Samsung 32 inch model LNS3241D, 18 months old and all of the sudden multicolor horizontal lines started appearing. More and more untill 80% of the screen was covered. I could still see the channel picture through these lines, but, the lines were there. When I turned it off, let it cool down, the lines were no longer there. Within 1-2 minutes, they slowly returned. Can anyone help, much appreciated. I have a Samsung 32 inch model LNS3241D, 18 months old and all of the sudden multicolor horizontal lines started appearing.

I've had exactly this problem with this Samsung TV. I called Samsung who were worse than useless. I tried taking it to a repair shop and was quoted £300 -£350 to fix it. With brand new versions costing around £450 it's not worth it. All I can recommend is never buying a Samsung again and telling everyone you know to avoid them.

I have a similar problem. It affects all sources, a bouncing vertical red dot appears when the set has been on for a while. The red dot appears about 8" in from the left. My set is still under warranty however and I will contact the store re this issue. Otherwise brilliant TV. I have a similar problem.

Took television to repair engineer, he advises me that the set is not repairable, and samsung are aware of the problem, which is a board fault and they have discontinued the set, and there is no parts available for the set, told me to bin it or sell it to someone who might require a screen.

Hi, I have an LN-R408D with little random red lines. They are very thin and come up on darker spots of the screen. Best Buy just came and looked at it and said he'd order the parts...but you say they are no longer avialable to fix these older TV's? What is the part number that causes this or at least what's it called? Hi, I have an LN-R408D with little random red lines. They are very thin and come up on darker spots of the screen.

I have a similar problem. samsung 40" LCD LNS4095D, white, red and green flickering dots, mostly white. Happened 14 months after i purchased,samsung, would not help because it was 2 months out of warranty. Cannot find info anywhere about the problem, it happens with al inputs. If i view the menu without any inputs, the menu shows up crystal clear. Its not a pixel problem but some kind of signal or processing problem. Don't buy samsung. Crappy company, won't address the problem.   I have a similar problem. samsung 40" LCD LNS4095D, white, red and green flickering dots, mostly white.

My Samsung 42 - now has almost a half screen of horizontal lines...

they have grown exponentially over the past 2 months.

I think this is really terrible - and something we should post on the SAMSUNG site!

Just encountered the same problem this week...exactly 20 days after my one year warranty expired!


Where can I sign up to be a part of the class action lawsuit?

I have a 15 month old 47" LG LCD HD. It developed red line on left side and anything that would ordinarily be black is now red. LG customer service told me they have never heard of this problem and I am on my own since it is now out of warranty. This is the 2nd LG I have owned that has not last more than 2 years without having a problem. I have a 15 month old 47" LG LCD HD.
