I have a Sony KDL-XBR46 TV. It recently began displaying a red vertical line on the far left side. Factory reset helps only temporarily.

I suspect it has to do with your display area setting. Press "tools" on your remote and then select "wide mode". Then select "display area". Once in "display area" make sure that you are not in "full pixel" position. Select either "normal";"-1", or "-2" and the problem should go away. Hope this helps. Let me know! ramilford@aol.com.

That happened To us and we had to use an hdmi cable and it fixed the issue. We we used a cord connect the cable box to the TV instead of the hdmi, we had that issue. Hope that helps!

it's old, I don't even have the tv anymore, the pixels died in a huge vertical line, my best guess is around 2007. I would not recommend this tv anymore.

NO I had green horizontal lines. More than likely a circuit board( refurbished one ) . Mine died twice in 2 years. They change so fast that parts are not readily available. Good luck . It's probably time for a new T.V.

Yes, I am having the same issue with my same model television. Mine was purchased the end of 2/08, it started doing that about a month ago and it is out of warranty. Have you had your repaired? If so, what was the cost? wants $150 just to come out and diagnose the problem.

I would test the TV by using a DVD player to see what the picture looks like. If there is no lines then it is the box, but if the lines are there when using a DVD player then it is the TV. Also check the cable between the box and the TV it could be bad and causing the lines. Most boxes either work or they just quit all together with nothing showing.

Possibly defective. Had the same problem. I contacted the seller and got a replacement which seems to work fine. It could also be a problem with your TV interfacing with the adapter. My experience is that my old 46" Samsung TV will have issues during playback vs. a newer 32" Sony TV where it works well.

I don't know. My husband contact Sony & they gave us the name of a local company that was able to repair the television, however it does not negate the fact that we will never by another Sony product ever again. My suggestion to you would be to contact Sony.

I believe this happened to me 3 years ago. I looked it up and I believe it was a loose component on one of the boards in the TV. Mine was still under warranty and Panny had someone locally come by and fix it for us. Good luck.

I purchased mines from a Sony outlet in December 2010 and the only issue I have had with it is a distorted line on the right side of the screen every so often when it's turned on. The line goes away afte about 10 minutes tho. My son has used it as a gaming tv the last three years and its still the best tv in my house..

They only issue I've had with the TV is there are parts of the screen now but have no back lighting in the room showing certain colors come on the screen you can see a distortion not in the picture but the back light inside TV but I've had the TV for over 5 years and it does get used a lot I've had problems also with when I would change from ps3 back to the TV there would bea picture but no sound that has happened a few times for or had to do to rectify it was just turn the TV off and turn it back on again sorry I couldn't be more help I've never had this problem.

Have not had this problem. I suggest you check with Vizio service. They were very helpful with an issue I had.

the problem is not in your RDR-VX560 on this issue. do check your TV's picture configuration e.g. zoom, wide, zoomwide, normal....settings. hope this helps.

I'm unsure of the problem since I currently have digital cable connected to this tv. You should try calling your digital cable provider.

This tv seems to be susceptible to electrical noise or so. i fixed it with a 3-prong adapter like this one http://rsk.imageg.net/graphics/product_images/pRS1C-2266744w345.jpg I installed in the tv electrical cable and now i don't see the pesky lines.
