I have just turned on my tv and I see a red line going down the left hand side of my lcd tv. What does that mean and what should I do. My tv is about 5 years old and it is a Sony Bravia.
 
Solution
Typically a red line means you have something that has gone bad on one of the boards inside the tv. If you're handy you might try opening it up and taking some pictures and posting them here. Typically capacitors to bad in tv's and cause alot of problems.

This solution worked for me. My Laptop screen suddenly started showing one redline going vertically. I pressed panel right below the red line.Both from front and back. Red line disappeared :bounce:
