Hi! 

 

I purchased this TV in late 2016, tested it for banding, clouding and other flaws, but only found minor clouding. Some days ago I noticed these dark lines across the TV during a light background. They're visble through everything that's not dark.

 

How can I fix this?

Hi @nlk, certainly a few problems here and does seem like back lighting failing.  You could perform a self diagnosis- Settings-Support-Self Diagnosis-Start Picture Test  to confirm issue.  However I suspect that you will need to contact Samsung Support, could possibly use Remote Support and see from there. There is also posssibility of redress with retailer if not under warranty.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.
