On a modern LCD TV screen, white (or any color) vertical lines appear when the individual "tab bonded" wire connections of the ribbon cable servicing a column of pixels on the LCD display begin to fail.

If the column wire is damaged and "stuck high," one of the 3 LCD display colors will show as a solid line.

If the line is white, all three colors are "stuck on."
This could be a manufacturing defect of the panel, or a result of the TV operating in harsh temperature conditions.
Alternatively, the timing controller board (t-con) may be failing and not sending signal to the display in the first place. It could also be a loose connection of the ribbon cable between the t-con and display.
Test sequence:
- Reseat ribbon cables from display to t-con.
- Try replacing t-con. (Sometimes, solder re-folwing the t-con fixes the issue)
- Try replacing display. (Or, try applying pressure to the tab bonds)
Repairing the tab bond of an LCD display is a daunting, specialized task. Some folks have managed to fix them with heat guns or shims between the case and LCD (e.g.,
