Vertical band of missing image

Block Image

hi everybody, I have a perfectly formed rectangle of missing image that has recently developed on my Samsung samsung un46eh5300fxza.

In checking for various screen problems, I haven't run across this one.

Can someone with more experience tell me if the panel is bad (and probably not worth fixing) or if it is something I could handle by replacing some parts?

Thanks!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Travis Ayres this could most certainly be a failed gate driver on your panels control board. Check the LVDS cables and see if you can get to the top of the panel itself. There should be a couple of fine ribbon cables that enter the LCD panel itself. Put some pressure on that and see if that changes the line. Let us know what you find. If you can post some images of your boards when you take the back of your TV.
