HELLO. JUST GOT MY TV TODAY...HOOKED S-CABLE AND OTHER CONNECTIONS UP TO MY DVD PLAYER. I HAVE PIC AND AUDIO BUT I GET A BUNCH OF SLANTED LINES ALL OVER THE PICTURE. WHEN I TRY TO HIT THE MENU BUTTON THE WORDS THAT COME UP ARE ALL GARBLED AND HARD TO READ...BUT IF I CROSS MY EYES AND TURN MY HEAD JUST RIGHT I CAN USUALLY MAKE OUT SOME OF THE WORDS..... MY HUBBY IS AT WORK SO HE IS NO HELP!! CAN YOU GIVE ME ANY HELP????
I finally got an answer from Akai customer service center. Because the TV is only 6 months old and I have proof of purchase, it will be repaired from a local Akai repair shop all under warranty. They told me it was a faulty modular chip that has happened to several of these models and had to be repaired in the shop due to some internal soldering needing to be done. I am waiting for the repair center to call me and will let you all know when the repair is completed.
I mis placed the 1-800 number but you can email them at [email protected]. They are located in Cleveland. Ohio.

I have the same problem with my Akai LCT42Z6TM TV as well. So far I found no solution to the problem. I am trying to get an answer directly from AKAI but haven't had much luck getting through to them. These lines are white scrambled vertical lines that appear all the time, even when I play Wii on it. I even tried to hook up an HDTV converter and that didn't help either. When I go into the menu, it is scrambled with color horizontal lines making it difficult to read. If anyone has similar trouble with this model or know of a fix for it ,please respond.
My problem is exactly the same too. Somebody help!
