Hi I have a Samsung LE40R88BD and it has developed dark vertical bands, this is a screen fault as far as I am aware, is it a possible repair or is it not cost effective? we bought it in October 97 so is it worth approaching samsung?

Hi,

It's well known that a known frequent fault helps extend manufacturers warranty well past initial one   year guarantee period, should you feel that fault is in that catagory - go for it - Chris

The more research I do the more and more this looks to be a common fault, and I thought all electrical items had to covered for two years, so I am just outside this. But would you expect an expensive item (TV) to last longer than just over two years without developing a fault???? Sounds like the start of an interesting exchange  :thumbup:
