Question LG B6 Splotchy streak.

[OJman]

Hi folks,

I'm having a weird issue with my LG B6. Initiially I thought it could be burn in, but it just doesn't look like a pattern or anything that could possibly constitute burn in.

Anyway I have a dark splotchy streak on the right hand side of the TV that extends until about the middle. I've tried to attach a picture, it's a bit crap so I apologise, but hopefully you can see what I mean, it's far more visible in person, I realise it might seem like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill haha.

I did try the pixel refreshed to no avail.

Any idea what this is?

Thanks

I'm no expert but I'd say this is more likely a panel fault. Is it under Warranty?

Yes the store I bought it from gave me five years, so I guess it's at least worth querying.

Oh my, I've figured out what it is.

It's burn in left by the screensaver no signal input. The yellow flowers on the mountain scene. Surely it's not right or fair that it can do that?

That needs replacing. How long have you had it?

After some back and forth the retailer has taken it in.

I've had it since 21/07/2016. So not ages and ages.
