Bad inverter, or a dirty one. Remove the power cable and battery, then take apart the screen bezel, or casing. Remove the LCD by unhooking it. Disconnect the inverter. Clean it. Reconnect it. Fixed.

you need to replace the electrolytic capacitor in the horizontal section of of your tv sets,cause the capacitor is weak.need to repair

i have a whie line going horizontal all the way across the sceen. how do i get rid of it?

you just say horizontal lines / and across a top of your television.I expect your trouble is the vertical line of your television . sound ok? try trouble the vertical section the check the resistor?

Failure in the vertical deflection amplifier section. This is usualy from failed components, and sometimes cold solder connections. Most of the time, I found bad capacitors, and sometimes the output IC or transistors (depending on the model type) that have failed.

Take the set to a service center for an estimate. You may find it more feasible to buy a new set depending on the parts that failed and the time involved to do the work.

Yes. Plan on spending about 85 to 125 bucks for a repair..accordianman

have u ever modded it? it can (and probably will)damage the screen (graphics driver)

Yes, this sounds like you'll need to replace your back-up batteries. That will probably resolve the problem.
