How to fix horizontal lines in Samsung LED TV

Horizontal lines on a Samsung LED TV screen This is a problem that users face in the form of horizontal lines and sometimes vertical lines. Today we will discuss it in detail. No matter what LED TV screen it is, this fault always occurs. After some time, in this article, we will cover all the reasons for it and also explain its solution.

Vertical line in LED TV screen

When vertical lines appear in any LED screen, its side COF is causing the problem. It depends on the size of the screen and how many side COFs there are in it. The exact side of the COF where the vertical lines appear is causing the fault. To remove this fault, you need a professional COF binding machine owner who can replace your faulty COF and make your screen perfect again.

Horizontal lines in LED TV screen 

Now let’s talk about the source cof. These are placed on the front of the panel. Horizontal lines are generated due to them. Their number also depends on the size of the panel. If any of these COFs is causing problems, then you may see black and white or colored lines on the screen. Here too, you need to replace the cof.

My Experience with COF Bonding

Now coming to my personal experience, my personal experience regarding the bonding is not good. You can understand it like this: if you get 10 panels fixed, only two of them will be fixed. The rest are easily returned to us, saying that the media is bad and this panel will not be fixed. At least that is what happened to me.

The structure of each panel is different, and I think the machine operator should know how to handle this panel, for example, its alignment during COF bonding and the cleaning of the area where the COF is to be bonded and the quality of the chemical to be used for cleaning. The temperature of the machine head is different for each panel.

I have had cases where I sent a screen to fix a line, and they returned the screen with ten to twelve lines. Now think for yourself what I would answer the customer, that is, I have fixed one of your lines in ten to twelve lines. My intention is not to criticize. I am just saying that you should do your work professionally so that the customer does not suffer.
