    Panasonic (HP) Plasma Green/Red Noise on Left Half of Screen

    I just picked up 2006 HP Plasma with some snow (Red and Green) on the left Half of the screen. It's very visible with black screens.

    The seller said the screen was perfect and now is out of sight and not returning emails. So, it looks like I will have to see if I can troubleshoot.

    No idea about plasmas but good in electronics so I can troubleshoot if I know where to look.

    Any tips would be GREAT!! Thanks so much!

    pictures and exact model would be helpful. maybe something as simple as reseating cables and ribbons, maybe the LVDS cable

      Thanks! I just took the back cover off yesterday and vacuumed up all dust while checking for burned parts or bulged caps. And... low and behold, the picture noise is gone.

      Not sure if it was because it was run with the cover off, the dust, or just coincidence that whatever was failing went back to good at the same time I performed the maintenance and check. Hopefully it doesn't come back.

      I did see a few caps that I wondered about but it was VERY hard to tell if they were bulged. If so it was EVER so slight.

      Also turns out the screen is made by LG (sticker on the inside of the TV) and not Panasonic as the seller had stated.

      I double checked the Va and Vg while I was in there.

      Model: CPTOH-0709

        panasonic TH-42PC77U plasma television half screen problem
        by renech
        hello,
        I hope someone on this forum can assist me.
        I have a panasonic TH-42PC77U plasma television.
        the lower 1/2 of the screen has become flaky....in and out, then finally goes black and you can only see the top portion.
        i have performed the reset to default settings quite a few times. Panasonic recommended..did not believe this would help...it didn't.
        I have removed the back panel and looked around for something obvious...burn marks in a board, etc....nothing obvious...
        I have read some posts that suggest the problem is related to the boards on the left...

        Panasonic Plasma screen interference on left half of screen
        by Zelek11
        My Panasonic Plasma model P55VT50 has started displaying "interference" on just the left half of the screen only (left when facing the screen). Sometimes it's concentrated in about the first 30 seconds after startup, then disappears. Other times it's fine at startup and then randomly does it later on. When it flashes the interference it's very quick and doesn't stay on the screen unless it flashes repeatedly in a row.



        This image is a screen shot from a video I took. This is an example of the interference at its worst. Often the interference is much smaller...

        Panasonic plasma TX-P42ST50 - 6 blinks
        by jm1234
        Hi,
        anyone able to provide the service manual for old plasma Panasonic TX-P42ST50E?
        It turns off almost immediately (0~5 seconds after pressing the on/off button) and starts flashing the red diode 6 times.
        I disconnected the left-hand side board (SC?, both the ribbon cable and the power cable to it) and also another ribbon going to bottom left board. Then the led signal is 8 flashes. According to service guide to another Panasonic plasma it would mean the left-hand side board is faulty. But I'm not sure it 100% applies to my model.
        I checked that board for any obvious faults...

        by stecos
        Hi everyone!
        I happened several times, in the search for help from the web, to consult this very interesting forum.
        So I decided to sign up and I intend to participate actively by making available my knowledge and experience on the subject, I'm a new user but at the same time I'm old in the sense that I have 4 decades of experience in repairing and designing electronics but above all I'm a great passionate about the subject.

        Having said that I come to the gist of my post on the forum as the title suggests.
        For my passion for technology I'm now collecting several...

        Panasonic ZT60 plasma tv with strange behavior and 8 blink code
        by cloo
        I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
        It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.


        So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
        After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...
