I recently started noticing flickering and scan lines on my TV, which is a Vizio. It seems like the LEDs might be failing. My initial thought is that the no-stud mount could be putting stress on the TV and causing this issue. Does anyone have experiences or insights on whether the mount could be damaging my television?

Typically, issues from mounting usually manifest as visual problems like a black line if the panels separate. What you're describing sounds more like a possible driver board or connection problem. Try swapping out the cables first to check if that solves it. If not, consider whether the TV might be overheating; running a fan near it can help. If that doesn't work, it might be the driver board or the device outputting the signal that's malfunctioning.

Thanks for your suggestions! I've changed out cables and tested different devices, and the TV feels cool. I’m starting to think it’s the driver board. Do you think it’s worth paying to fix it?
