Horizontal Black Lines on Sony KDXH9505BU

[Benny5]

My, almost 6 year old, TV has just developed fine Horizontal Black lines (30mm apart) across most of the screen.

It was purchased from Richer Sounds and they directed me to what appears the be a third party repair centre (JFA). Having provided them with all the details, coupled with images of the fault, they have concluded that its a faulty Panel and as Sony do not supply replacement as spare parts its been deemed to be beyond economical repair.

Initially when I looked into this I was hoping it was the T-Con board that was failing as a repair seemed possible.

While I await a response from Richer Sounds has anyone experienced or are aware of such issues with this particular TV.

Thanks for any input.

I had lines across my TV (Different brand) but turned out to be my £60 gold plated hdmi lead coming from cable box.
Poundland hdmi lead works fine.
Unplug everything.
Turn off at socket for 10mins.
Power back on.
Open settings menu so you have a picture.
Still got lines?
If yes nothing you can do
