    TH-50PHW5 Panasonic Plasma Display (Monitor)

    This is typical for me. I have this issue with my 16 year-old plasma monitor as portions of the screen go all WHITE intermittently. Lower left quarter, upper left quarter, left side altogether. Never right half of the monitor (yet).

    I found this forum, and went back into the living room to take a picture of the picture. No white sections. This is typical for me.

    I know they will be back, so I am posting anyway. Any ideas?

      Do you have the back of the set off?
      I would check the LVDS cable between the main board and the control board is well seated. It's a common issue on some older Panasonic sets causing issues with one half of the display.

        Thanks. I don't have it off at the moment, but that will go on my to-do list this week. Thanks, I am grateful for the lead!

            Upload a picture of the boards in the chassis and we'll have a look.

              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 main board repair (ST30 GT30 VT30 ST50 GT50 VT50),LED with 3 blincks
              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 Tx-40cx400b top left half screen not displaying correct
              by armoured_smiler
              Hi,

              Trying to work out if this is TFT problem or TCon issue.
              The TV powers up but the top half of the screen, from the right it is OK, but as you look across to the left halfway across it starts get duller and duller until it is very dark on the lefthand side, currently I trying to clean the remote as it seems to have something film wise on the pads stopping it from registering buttons pressed.

              Also when changing the screen size of Windows PC display to say to a smaller pixel sizewindow, the original window displayin the top left stays/takes a few seconds to disappear?...

              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...

              Panasonic Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
              by Alicat
              Hello,

              Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

              Model number is TH-50PZ85U

              Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

              Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

              I also hear a few clicks.

              I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

              Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...
