Friend just texted me a pic of this panasonic plasma thats at a garage sale.. Any thoughts on what MIGHT be the problem ? Owner said only thing that comes in clear is the words/numbers and the pictures from the sd card reader

I pay very little for tvs anymore.

The fact that the tv panel is working you just need to fix the timing control issue.

A garage sale implies cheap so I am sure it is in the proper price range.

Nah since the OSD's good, it's gotta be on the board with the video inputs on it. I'd pay at most £50 for that TV.
