HELP! Red Line on all my pictures

[ukak]

Hi All,
My E-500 seems to have developed a fault.
On all of my pictures I can see a very thin vertical red line about 3/4 of the way across the frame reaching to about 3/4 of the frame high.
If my photograph is quite bright the line is not visable, but if the part of the photo is dark, it is very nasty.
Anyone any ideas?

Can you post a photo showing this.

There was another person with a red line problem on this forum last year: Red Line on Sensor at High ISO

I had exactly the same thing on my E-3 last year, and it had to be returned to Olympus to have a new sensor fitted under warranty.
