    Panasonic TC-P55S60 multiple black bars



    So the dreaded black bars have appeared on my set. As you can see from the picture it is at least the left 2 sets of ribbon cables. I re-seated them this morning and the problem reappeared after a couple hours. They both turn black at the same time so I'm leaning toward a board issue. It is very intermittent & doesn't seem to last long, any ideas? This is the 2nd Panasonic plasma of mine that has taken a dump in a total of 6 years, both had problems right at the 3 year mark... what a shame. The picture quality is hard to beat.

      Re: Panasonic TC-P55S60 multiple black bars

      Update: the bars have shown up 3 or 4 times in the last few months, now a different problem. Set is shutting itself off & giving the 8 blink. If I disconnect & reconnect the power cord it will work fine for hours on end. Starting to wonder if both of these issues are related, possible A board failure?

          Panasonic cf 20 will no longer boot-only black screen
          by Rescogitans
          Hello all. Only my second post.

          I have a panasonic CF-20C5142VM which was booting to bios with no issues. I needed to add an ssd that was not initially being recognized by the bios. Found a link that suggested that I disable uefi mode and clear keys then to reboot to allow bios to now see New ssd. After restarting, screen is entirely black with no image. Found another post that suggested unplugging bios battery because some remnants of the bios may still exist in other parts of board but did not fix issue-screen is still black.
          Anyone run across something like this before?...

          Panasonic TH-50PX60U Plasma Black Bars
          by canadaboy25
          Hey guys, I have a Panasonic plasma here with two black rectangles in the display. As you can see from the picture, they affect the menus as well. Both black rectangles extend to exactly the center of the screen. I'm not super familiar with the workings of the display driver layout. Would this indicate a bad ribbon connection on the top and bottom boards? The TV has ribbons along the entire top and bottom of the display.

          Any ideas are appreciated....

          Panasonic TH-50PX8EA Black screen, only relay clicks
          by Rensiee
          Hello,
          I have been reading a few threads on here regarding Panasonic plasma tv's. I've found one thread which explains the same problem as mine, unfortunately the thread has not been completed.
          I got a free tv (TH-50PX8EA) from a friend which shows no screen. When plugged in only one red light shows up and when pushing the ON button, the red LED turns of and will only turn on again when pressing the ON button again.

          When plugging in the TV i hear two relays click fast and after a few seconds the third relay clicks.
          I have measured the voltage in the VSUS line, which...

          Problem

          This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....
