        So, did you find the service manual yet?
        I see two ways of doing this. 1/ Get the service manual and try to figure out which board is defective. 2/ Don't get the service manual and replace boards by guessing. You already replaced two boards on this. As previous post said, there are big chances this failure is caused by the control board. BUT, it may also be caused by the mainboard.
        That's why I suggest getting the service manual and carefully check if there even is a testmode pattern available on this set, and so on.

          Re: plasma with vertical lines

          the service manual has no info regarding assessing the test patterns for my model, it do have info about voltage adjustment and the panel block diagram.

            Then you have to decide if proceed with the repair and replace the control board aswell. Hopefully you might find a used one on E-bay.
            Wizard here on the forum might give his opinion about the chances of control board failure when looking at your pictures in the early posts.

            Just to make sure, did you download the model service manual or did you search for a panel manual? It can be quite confusing but the model specific manual use to be quite short. Looking for a panel manual could help in getting additional information regarding the possibility of placing the set in a service/pattern mode. If you look at the panel itself, a sticker usually tells which panel it is, for example LG42V4, LG42V5. Then search for this instead, if you haven't already done so.

            I found this when googling for the model:
            http://jasonkoller.blogspot.com/2011...ma-tv-fix.html

            I know this isn't the same lines as you see, but in this case the control board was the problem.

              When I was referring to control board in previous post I of course meant the logic board and nothing else. Sorry for this.

                Re: plasma with vertical lines

                i did download the panel manual a shorter version than the model manual, even the model service manual doesn't cover any info on service pattern access mode for my model or panel version. my panel is PDP42x2a and the model is DU-42PX12X.

                  RECHECK ALL OF YOUR CONNECTIONS!

                  Small ribbon cables going in and out of y and z board and also to x drive (lower boards).

                  Patterns all across screen are related to logic control as mentioned above.

                    In that case this set probably doesn't have this feature.
                    I would go for replacing the logic board.

                              I know this is a super old thread. In this situation (you have shotgun-replaced two boards without fixing the original symptom) buy the third suspect board on ebay from a supplier who will accept returns. Failing that, resell the bought boards that did not fix the issue.
                              Given the enormous complexity of plasma sets, I don't touch them anymore and wouldn't without first accumulating a significant amount of experience repairing LCD TV's.
                              Yet another possibility is that one of the boards you replaced already is just as failing as the original it replaced. The only sure way to evaluate this is testing in a known working set of the same chassis/panel, or via a board repair depot that can test your boards.

                                Clearly a control-board issue to me--Run test-patterns from control-board to confirm.

                                Vertical-lines would never been caused by the X or Y sus boards, as they have No vertical input/output/references!!

                                    This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

                                    Problem
                                    TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

                                    5.5 year old 85 inch Sony Bravia X950G started showing gray horizontal lines across the bottom of the screen and the picture shifts slightly vertically when it happens. The lines sometimes get bigger/smaller vertically and bounce back. See the video for the problem. It seems to be happening after it warms up after an hour or so. Happens regardless of source. Right now there's nothing but power cable connected and it's happening. We did hook up a new Nintendo Switch to our HDMI switching receiver today, and played for a while with no issues, but this problem didn't occur til a few hours later while...

                                    Hello, I have a screen in where sometimes when I open it pop-up vertical multicolor lines (I would say the most of them are green). If I tun off and turn on the screen the lines dissapear or if I leave open the screen after approximately five minutes the lines gone. I measured the below voltages on the main PCB and on the T-CON board and the voltages are the same when it doesn’t display the vertical lines and when it displays the vertical lines. Also, I cleaned all the connectors very good with IPA. I moved back and forth the connectors and the COF tabs but the vertical lines didn't displayed...

                                    This is my 2nd broken TV I'm trying to fix and haven't been able to figure out... currently going without any working TVs so am hoping to be able to fix one..

                                    This Samsung PN50B430P2D Plasma has this big block of vertical lines which will fade in shortly after turning the TV on. The lines will sometimes flicker a bit or fade in/out and sometimes it just stays present. The length of time it takes them to appear varies, sometimes its a few minutes and other times it appears immediately after powering on.

                                    I have attached an image of the TV with these bars displaying....
