Black blurred vertical line of LED TV

agentsmith · 2019-09-28 12:13:47

Samsung TV recently showing intermittent/regular Black vertical line down screen (see pics). It looks worse when viewing from a side angle. Does this mean TV screen on way out or worth repair effort? model is Samsung UEKU556400U so not too old.

From the pictures you posted, that does not look like an LCD failure - it could be that part of the backlight has failed ? Getting it repaired is a bit of a mystery to me - you could ask who ever you bought it from or ask in the Richersounds forum for advice on what to do (even of you didnt buy it from them, RS are pretty good at giving advice to Boardies).

Keep your consumer rights in mind, even if the manufacturers warranty has expired, you can go after the retailer.

TV is probably 2-3 years old and only came with a 1 year warranty. Think I got it in HN?
