Pioneer PDR 6070PU with columns of white dots

[captainkazaa]

I just got a Pioneer plasma tv (model PDP 6070PU) that has symmetrical columns of white dots across the screen. The columns and dots are evenly spaced and are approximately 6 inches apart on the 60 inch screen. I have tried using different inputs, but the dots are always there. Any ideas?? TIA.

The control board is likely failed. Have you got the remote ?

Control-Board most likely, but there's a vague chance it could be mainboard.

Worth checking/cleaning the LVDS cable-plugs anyway...

Maybe enter service mode and run the test patterns ?
