I wanted to post my experience: After several months of slapping the back of the TV in order to get the horizontal lines to go away, I finally took the TV down, and took the back off the set. I tightened every connector I could find, both the ones with actual connectors, and the ribbon connectors that are held by friction. I put the TV back together, and have not had a problem with it since then. If you're going to try this, make sure the TV is unplugged!

SOURCE: a thin horizontal line across the screen

I know I have seen thin lines in the past on older CRT monitors, these are usually wires which support the aperture grill. LCD is just a panel so this must be something different. What color is the line? It is probably an error in the scanning process.

SOURCE: Distorted white lines running across screen

Disconnect the monitor from the computer and turn the monitor on
it will display a diagnostic colorbar are the lines still there.
if not they are likely a cable or video card.
if they are still there have a tech evaluate the monitor.

I have a 55in roku tcl tv has a black line going down the middle and beside that is a bunch of colored lines on one side what is this

I would think that someone, somehow has hit the TV screen with something. My TV screen has a black line going across the middle horizontally and it intersects with a colored line going down the side vertically. Wher the 2 lines intersect is where it was shot with a bb.

Horizontal lines across the screen

actually it is called a dead pixel. You can't fix it unless you will replace your LCD. Sorry for the bad news but it is for a fact. Hope I have answered your question

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!
