Time for the Sony Repair Shop. This problem is a major one. The least it could be is a bad zebra strip on your LCD panel. Only a good camera technican can do this. There are too many very small screws. Also only 25volt of static electricity charge can zap the electronics.

thanks for that information i shall take it to a shop
