Slight shadow on part of screen

There is a slight shadow on the top right 1/4 of the screen, more obvious against a paler background but not so noticeable on darker. Never used to be there and now that it is I notice it all the time. Is this something that can be fixed? or something that happens these TV's through wear and tear? TV only 3 years old.

Hi, There have been several problems lately with the screens doing that. The only way is replacing the screen. I have located the problem causing it, It is the light filters in the panel,not replaceable at this time."pain in *** too"Did it from a broken panel. The light filters diffuse the light evenly so you do not notice the backlights. If you bend it,it will cause shadows like your getting. They heat up and swell a bit. And that is what is causing it. I have contacted Samsung,And Magnavox about the problem. Will not sell replacement light filter at this time tho.The LED backlit will not do this. They run cool.
If I can help you out more contact me at...

Testimonial: "Thanks very much for response, at least I know what it is now, will just have to live with it for a while and maybe get one of the led backlit sets."

Screen refresh problem

Sometimes it is as simple as separating the wires behind the computer, so they are not touching. With the interference gone, all is fine.

Shadows on screen

Try moving a medium powered magnet (not one for picking up heavy objects and not a refrigerator holding one) over the distorted area. If that doesn't work, try a more powerful one. This worked for my Toshiba LCD. Good luck!

Vertical strip paler than rest of the screen

Check connectore for that area, may be loose, release the cable before pulling, and reinstall it. See if that works.
