Hog III Touch Screen Issue

One of my clients has a Hog III that has developed a "line" down from top to bottom on the right touch screen. It looks to be maybe one or two pixels wide and runs the entire height of the screen.

The console is approximately two years old and out of warranty. It does not affect any opertions other than being annoying to see running down the screen. Does it sound like the screen needs to be replaced? If so, is this something I can do myself?

Thanks....

    I'm still thinking that this is probably a hardware problem.
    Have you tried swapping the screens or the connections to the screens so we can see if the problem follows the LCD or the video card output?

    I fully agree. It's something that can and does happen on all LCD screens from time to time. It doesnt always go away (unless it does turn out to be a bad connection, which shouldnt cause that issue in a specific place -- it would create it over the entire screen).
