55LV5500 has slight vertical lines

[BadCapsTx]

They say a picture is worth 1,000 words. That is the best way to describe what my issue is. These lines appear to the right of higher contrast areas of the picture.

Everything else on this set is 100% operational. I have changed the TCon with no effect. The ribbon cables from the Main Board and the TCon have been cleaned, again with no change to the picture quality. While the picture I have attached is a built in Menu system, the same issue occurs on OTA and HDMI inputs.

Any ideas???

Thanks in advance - Peter

I'd guess BGA soldering issues... Do you have freeze spray?

Nope, all out but a good excuse to restock and try it!

I'm assuming you are suggesting the main BGA under the big heat sink on the Main Board?

Yes, and that would be the main CPU. This certainly looks like it could be at fault.
