Backlight Failure: If the TV has sound but a black screen, performing a "flashlight test" (shining a light close to the glass) can reveal if the panel is still producing an image. If shapes are visible, replacing the internal LED backlight strips is a common and practical repair.Screen Lines: Vertical or horizontal lines often point to issues with the T-CON board or loose ribbon cables. Cleaning the "tab bond" area with isopropyl alcohol is a common DIY attempt for vertical lines.Cracked Panel: If the glass itself is physically cracked, it is generally considered irreparable as the liquid crystals leak between layers.
