Samsung UE55ES6800 - Vertical Lines (moving)

[Billsy]

Hi all

I picked up a UE55ES6800 with bad colours to the whole screen and some faint lines on the left side. I found a burnt COF tab on the left/bottom so removed all the left side tabs. This fixed the colour issue but the vertical lines remain. The lines only appear in conditions where there's a bright object in the lower left corner area. All connections are clean and secure. I guess this is either a side effect of removing the tabs or there's a bad bond on the bottom edge? What do you think? Is there any hope for this panel?

Many thanks

I think.you have to try reflowing the fartest tab's cof chip with the soldering iron gently under it on the amber side of.the tab.
