Thomson RCA ColorTrax Plus 36" TV has horizonontal lines on screen

How do I fix the horizontal lines that go from the top of the screen to the bottom? The picture isn't as sharp as before. I unplugged the TV for 20 minutes and plugged it into an unused socket with no luck. I also purchased a new wire with red,white and yellow jacks. No luck. I have never had a problem with this television until now. PLEASE HELP!

SOURCE: Sharp 42" flat screen LCD T.V.

You have a bad buffer ic,which is part of the lcd panel.Definiately call sharp to get it repaired.If it doesn't have a warranty,persistence through sharp will get you results.

SOURCE: Horizontal green line appears on screen

My RCA F36648 36" TV has only the bottom half of my picture working. The top half has horizontal lines that distorte the picture. It looks like when you pull a rake through the sand the lines that are left...

You have vertical output problems.There is distortion at the top because of a faulty vert. output i.c. or a faulty electrolytic capacitor.It's possible there may be a problem at your yoke also.It needs a professional repair.

Wavy horizontal lines on bottom of RCA 36in Truflat TV

The convergance or y-sus board can become faulty. The capcitors do tend to burn out. It is about a $250 + repair for this. Not all parts can be repaired, but they can be replaced. A capacitor tester and multi-meter are about the best tools for the job. If the price you get is over $250, I simply would replace it instead of repairing it..

My tv doesnt show the complete screen and i need help on how to fix it

If this has a format or spicture size button the remote, adjust to format 2. If not , discribe the picture, if it is cut off top & bottom , you have a vertical problem, if it side to side,then you have a horizontal problem.

Front panel blocked or locked

RCA Entertainment Series 32" Plus Gold, GEMSTAR, xbox ready has been in the shop twice so far. Transformer replaced and 6 months later the picture suddenly had horizontal white lines that gradually spaced apart more from top to bottom and it had a gray hue and fuzzy, but I still watched it for 3 months that way. Today I turned it on and about a minute later I heard a loud crackling sound coming from the back and the picture disappeared, screen went black. Is it worth fixing again? Please contact me at [email protected]
