Panasonic TH-42Z700U Plasma Image Distortion

[Hair6a11]

Hi there

I have a Panasonic TH-42Z700U Plasma set with issues

I can tell you what I've seen so far - but attached are a few photos. I connected my VGA cable / computer to take those photos.

Before that - I had HDMI connected from a DVD player - same scenario really.

* When devices plugged into inputs are turned off - the TV menu is perfectly fine

The photos reveal the distortion - I'm not sure what to call it specifically - but the picture does fluctuate a bit - I suppose only a video would reveal that properly

Anyway - I appreciate your consideration and expertise ahead of time

So with an input present, the menu is also distorted?

That is correct, the menu shows distortion as well.
I just turned the TV and the computer back on to verify.

I then turned off the computer - it "fixed" the television menu, i.e. it looks normal again.
