Toshiba 27WL46 27 in.LCD- Lines top of screen getting worse.

We have a 27" flat screen LCD tube TV that we've had for about 3 years that we have started having a problem with. There are white lines on the top of the screen that extend several inches down from the top. It started out w/just a few lines and it has gotten worse. What might the problem be? We've had Toshiba's before and they have been great products.

thanks!

If they are vertical lines, then the LCD panel is going bad, it will get worst with more lines appear as time goes on.

Why has my Toshiba flat screen tv got a broad green horizontal band across the top?

One of the circuit board ribbons connected on the vertical control is probably loose there is a few vids on you tube for this repair , failing that some of the driver capacitors need replacement with higher voltage caps same microfarad.

Horizontal lines across tv

If your LCD TV or monitor has stopped working, or is displaying one of the following
symptoms, then it's a candidate for some new capacitors
- Flickering screen
- Screen image disappears after several seconds
- Dim screen
- Slow start
- Power LED on, but no picture
- Unusual colors and/or lines
The primary cause of LCD TV and monitor failure is caused by faulty capacitors. You can
examine the capacitors in your LCD TV or monitor and actually see if they are bad.
If they appear bulged on top, then they need to be replaced.
New capacitors will solve a host of problems in LCD monitors and TV's and will extend the life
of your monitor or TV by several years.
Check the cables, connectors and connections.
Take it to a repair shop.

I've had my Toshiba 46RV530U less than 2 years,

Diana, did you ever find a solution? My Toshiba (same model) is about 2 years old and it started getting these 4 horizontal lines spaced pretty far apart and a double image at bottom. When I lightly tap the top of the TV, they went away. But now that is not working. Please let me know. Thanks.

I have a Sanyo 46 inch flat screen hdtv purchased from walmart aug. 31rst, 2008. Sure enough, 13 months later my tv is having picture problems and getting worse. It started having portions of the screen...

I have the same problem, my television is faded black on the left side with lines on the left top side. I have had the 46 inch unit for 1 year and 7 months. I am planning to write a demand letter to Sanyo and then taking them to small claims court woth evidence that this is a common problem with their units that they know about and is not trying to remedy. Also the Attorney general in Texas should have an interest in them (Walmart and Sanyo) selling these defective proucts in the state.
