    Panasonic TX-P42G20 bad panel?

    Hi

    I think that the problem with this set is the bad panel, but i would like second opinion
    As shown on pictures problem is on the left side of tv. This black bar is spread from midlle to the left edge in width as the four connectors on C2 board (out of 7 IIRC). Tried to reseat cables on mainboard and on C2 board, but nothing happened, everything remained the same.
    Also tried test patterns and mirror optinon in service menu, but the vertical bar stayed in same position. It's black bar, nothing in it, completely dead.
    Well i tought that it can be C2 board problem until i noticed one black horizontal bar that is going from the left edge of the screen to aprox half of this wide vertical bar. I don't think that it could be buffer connector on SD/SU board (it would be across whole screen)?

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Yeah you'd wonder what the chances of an area sideby side going but seeing that line suggests panel damage/shorted?

      No chips/cracks in that area? Odd fault...

        Wel i tried to find some, but no, there isn't any (although it was my first guess to...). I'll try to check it once more.
        Don't know if it is smart move to buy a C2 buffer board, but i doubt it is really?

          The pic that shows the deop down menu. Is it in the vertical black section of the other pics? If the menu works in the black verical section then the screen shoud be good and the Main board is bad

            Ya I'm confused. Pic 2 looks like it has the service menu overlaying the bad area ?

              No, service menu isn't shown on bad area, look at LSI DATA line and you will se the number 5 cut at half
              No chips/cracks on panel, so conclusion is bad panel I assume?
              At least all boards are OK (except maybe C2) so it will go for parts...
