Samsung UE55B7000WW Slow response, Lines on Screen - Green on startup

[Diveboy]

This is actually quite difficult to explain, the TV was fine and now it starts up with a green tint which wares off. There is a ton of lag and images don't display properly and have lines through.

I've uploaded a video to youtube to try ans show this as I'm stumped. Plus I cant see any of the menus to try do anything.

Any idea what it might be?

Worth noting that there is no signal in the video so it would just be snow if it were working.

Looks like the Screen is on its way out, if you have any form of warranty then nows the time to use it

Definitely screen fault.

Thanks guys - Shame was a good TV

I had an old LG that behaved like this- I could get it to work again by twisting the whole set- just pulling gently on one corner whilst pushing on the opposite- with a bit of help from a knee so stop it sliding about. This usually 'cured' it until next switch-on.

Seems a common thing
The problem...the white ribbon cable inside the TV was dirty (oxidation and dust). The fix... wiped it down and cleaned the connecting points.
