The reason for the thick black line is that the screen is receiving no information to that section, either because the screen itself has developed a fault or the processor is not supplying to that portion, either way Im sorry to say the item is more than likley a uneconomical repair.

    ok when u say processor ,are we talking replacing a board,cause i have no problem with that,when i first got it,it had no pic at all,i inspected it and found the power supply had loose solder joints ,i repaired that ,then i got the pic,but it had the black line,i also have no sound ,so im thinking main board problem

    Without being able to physically examine the item its impossible to say, but I would go with your hunch, but if you and I are wrong then it could be a expensive mistake. Is it really worth the hassle ?

Any advice on what board I should replace if the left half of the screen is no good, just showing white and black vertical bars? Right half is fine. Is the panel kaput?

Toshiba 32sl410u have 2 vertical lines on screen

Likely a shop repair but:

Either a bad board (main, or power or even a inverter board)

Worst case if Black line and thick would be the panel (screen unit) which would be fatal but is not likely if lines not black.

Your plasma screen is made up of 1080 verticle lines and now a few of these lines are not working. This is the screen itself and needs replacing.

Mines a LG RZ42PX11 it intermittently gets a black vertical line down the middle of the screen.

Hi I have a LG RZ42px11 there are 6 vertical thick black lines running down the middle off the screen, when cold the TV seems OK but if it has been on for around 10mins or on standby the lines stay on screen.

Thanks.
