Vertical line on Plasma

Hello,

Thought I'd post this question here to hopefully gain more knowledge on what this problem can be before I have the repairman show up. I always like to be a little knowledable about a problem before I speak with a repairman.

So... I have a Sony KE32-TS2 Plasma television which a few weeks ago developed a single row of vertical pixels that first was only visible when the screen was blue. The pixels seemed to be greenish-grey in color and went from the top of the screen to the bottom, all in a row. Today it seemed to get worse and is now happening with other colors as well.

Any ideas what would cause this? I am assuming this is covered under my extended warantee, but wanted to see what you all thought before they arrive.

Thanks in advance for your help.

According to symphtoms it is a bad plasma screen.

One month left in the extended warantee.... Sure glad it happened now!

Thanks for the reply!

If you have only one month left for the warranty, ask about buying an extension to the warranty. If you have to service your set outside of warranty, you will find it very expensive!
