Horizontal red lines on UE46ES8000

[mkrfan38]

For the last few months I have had about 6 horizontal red lines on my UE46ES8000.The screen is still watchable but is becoming increasingly irritating especially when trying to watch sport.I've tried the picture test but the lines are still there.

Is anybody experiencing the same problem?Any suggestions would be muc

@mkrfan38: Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue. Do the lines occur on all sources? If you disconnect any external devices from the back of the TV, does the issue persist? When you carried out the Picture Test, did it return any 'Failed' messages at the end?

Hi,thanks for your reply.
Yes the lines occur on all sources and even when I disconnect external devices the lines are still there.When I did the Picture Test it didn't return any Failed messages at the end.

Cheers for trying that. The next step would be to get it inspected by an engineer for a repair. Check out the following link on how to go about getting this arranged: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/repair/tv-av/
