Dark spot on right side of LCD screen in the shape of Illinois has appeared gradually over the past few weeks. Very noticable between commercial and when news channels show graphics/slides. Pixels are not completely dead, still show a little light. Any help? TV is a little over 4 yrs old so is obviously out of warranty. I could probably replace it (with another brand, likely) and tolerate the dark spots as my new big screen monitor for my work computer if it can't be fixed.

In most of the case, the problem is a defective display LCD panel, this problem in some terminology is called PIXEL RETAINING, it means the pixels are locked up, there is no good permanent solutions for it, you have to change the LCD panel.

SOURCE: Problem with the picture on my Vizio flat panel

a better solution is to replace the LVDS cables or just reseat them as the contractor stated it could be a motherboard but about 90% of the time it is actually the LVDS cables ohm load that puts toomuch load on the motherboard. the cheapest solution if out of warranty is buy an lvds cable and simply replace it if the issue still exist after the cable is replaced it will be a motherboard issue but any time you have red green or blue speckles on a vizio TV you should always swap the cable first since quite simply put it is the most common point of failure with that issue.

Faulty T-con board or mainboard (AKA tuner board)...the tapping would make me believe it to be the connection of the LCD panel to the T-con board that is causing the issue! This board is located on the top of the tv while looking down from the back. Replace it and you will be good to go!

Dark spot on kdl60r510a why?

As it has an LED backlight, maybe a few are failing.
I would contact Sony for advice, it is unlikely anything is behind the screen, it may be just a failing screen. That does happen.

I have sanyo projector model PDG-DSU20E. Few white spots appeared on the right side of the screen. Gradually the spots has filled the right side about 1 feet is width till bottom of the screen. Now few...

1,white spots appeared on screen,means the DMD is broken,you need a new DMD.
2,the projector running off after only a few minutes,means the Inductor (Sensing element),near the Color Wheel. Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to wipe the Inductor.

Have a good day!

Red spot on LCD

Hi,
1) That red spot means that a pixel is stuck, actually it's very common on LCDs.
2 and 3) It usually occurs for a manufacturing issue.
4) The most of the time it doesn't mean that the whole screen is going to fail, but in my case I would take advantage of the warranty if the laptop is brand new and the warranty is still there.
Good Luck!!!
