    Panasonic Plasma TCP65VT60B - Black vertical bar

    Hi everyone, I have a Panasonic Plasma TV (TCP65VT60B ) that, before one year of use (500 hours), started to show a black vertical bar (4´wide) in the right side. Can you guys confirm if it is a bad panel problem ? Is there any chance to be other issue?
    Find attached a photo.
    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately, it does look like the panel is bad
    This is really bad, as the VT60 is a very nice TV. (I keep looking out for a cheap faulty one to fix!)
    I guess you are lucky it only affects the far right of the TV and not the centre. You now have a 63.5" display with a slight aspect ratio distortion.
    Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
    For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

        Panasonic TC-P65ST50 plasma vertical black section repairable?
        by evanroheff21
        Hello,

        I've acquired a 65" Panasonic TC-P65ST50 for free from someone while purchasing another TV for repair from them. I've repaired ~10 LCD TVs over the years with decent success, and I enjoy doing it. However this is my first attempt at a plasma, and I'm treading carefully.

        The TV when I got it would power up, however the left ~5 inches of the display was entirely black, basically like a letterbox image would appear. I disassembled, looked up some info, and determined that it was likely either dirty/loose connectors between the panel and the C buffer boards...

        Panasonic TX-PR65VT60 plasma flickering pixels on black
        by Stasonio
        Hello!

        On my Panasonic TX-PR65VT60 plasma, flickering pixels (or subpixels) run uniformly on completely black areas of the image or on a completely black screen (for example, an image with completely black areas, black fill, or hdmi, AV input without a signal). This can be clearly seen in complete darkness at close range, and is very similar to how it is shown in these videos:
        https://youtu.be/IgcqC12Wc2U
        https://youtu.be/Bfzaw4D2Byg

        I repeat that this happens only in completely black areas, otherwise there are no complaints about the image and the operation...

        Panasonic TX-P42S20E Plasma tv. First purple sparkles, now completely black
        by Nirrain
        Hi,

        I have a Panasonic TX-P42S20E plasma TV that lately has been showing flashing pink pixels when the picture is bright (similar to picture 5 in this post), primarily on the top half but to a lesser degree in the buttom half.

        I've tried to change VSUS to high but it made the issue even worse so changed it back.

        However, this is all a backstory as yesterday after being on for about 5 minutes the screen turned black. I've tried to hard reset (hold power on tv for 30 sec).

        When turned on the green LED flashes 6 times and then stays on continously....

        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...

        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...
