Hi, Today my Samsung Q7FN 55” starting to show horizontal lines when I use it. It has 4 lines to be specific, one line at the top sometimes flicker (normal white line and brighter line) the 3 others are faded lines. The lines are present on all outputs, HDMI and built-in apps like Youtube. I have been using this TV almost everyday for about a year and half. Do you guys know what is broken in this TV? I just had this TV’s panel replaced about 5 months ago. I am really disappointed with this brand now… Constant issues here and there. Hopefully not panel again this time. :( Any advice or suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

@weks yep. Sure looks like a bad panel. Looks like bad connections between the LCD driver board and the LCD panel which really cannot be fixed by us mere DIY’ers. Try to see if you find very thin ribbon cables going into the panel. IF you press on those in the area where the lines currently show, those should disappear with that pressure. That’ll be an indication of a failed connection.
