Re: Viore PDP42V18HA has Red Pixel Static?

Thanks Tom66!

Awesome! No problem, I'll keep it to the forum. Thanks for all advice so far. I'll post pictures as soon as possible, so that hopefully someone might walk me through the next phase.

I trash picked a Viore PDP42V18HA the other day, and brought it home to test it. Everything works perfectly, no power up/down issues, all inputs work perfectly.

Defect is that when playing video from any input, IE: coax, composite, component, hdmi, etc. there is a red pixel static that appears on the display, intermittenly.

I'm a newby, engineering tech student, and would love and appreciate some advice in trouble shooting and diagnosing the problem to make a repair if possible. Any ideas?

Thanks,

sorry for the double post...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

I'm a newby to this forum, and would love to make the accquantance of all of you! I see so much knowledge, and I'm eage to learn from the collective!
I'm a Student of Engineering Technology, and will graduate in the spring 2013 with my AS, for starters. I work for (Gov't contractor "that's classified") so I'm a bit tech savvy, not seasoned, but enough to be dangerous. I was a tech on the Space Shuttle Program before the 1st wave of layoffs in '07. I've seen alot of amazing stuff.

In my spare...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Just wanted to introduce myself! Being a new poster. I'm really hoping to learn from the collective wisdom I've found here so far. I work in high tech. for a (gov't contractor) and am about to graduate with my AS in Engineering Technology. I'm certainly a newby here, but welcome the chance to learn.

I also DJ and Produce Electronic Dance music called House Music. Not the crap on pop radio, electronic music with soul. d~~b

Thanks for having me....

Re: Viore PDP42V18HA hit by lightning! Now what?

Also, I'm not trolling posts, this seemed to be the closest to the issue I'm experiencing... Best of all with my problem is that there are no power control issues, at all... all buttons input, menu, and volume and channel controls all function perfectly!

Just need guidance on determining the cause of the red pixel static.

Re: Viore PDP42V18HA hit by lightning! Now what?





I have a similar situation, though mine is more promising! I just hand-picked the same model plasma from a trash pile. I plugged it in and everything works! all inputs are funtional, as well as outputs... total score! Except randomly firing scattered red pixels throughout the display.

And suggestions? No idea about whether it was pulsed by lightning, would not know if it was.

But, if it's just a board... I scored!...
