Re: LG 60PK550 Plasma TV - Bad Picture

The control board was bad. I found a used one on eBay for $15. TV is working great now. Thanks to everyone who had input on this! It's very much appreciated!

Re: LG 60PK550 Plasma TV - Bad Picture

Thanks for the feedback guys. I will perform the test in the next day or so. If the issue does not happen during the EXT AUTO GEN test, would that indicate that the control board is good?

Looking for advise on my 2.5 year old LG Plasma TV (60PK550). Not sure how to best describe the picture issue so I've attached an image. If I turn it off and then back on, the issue remains. However, if I unplug the unit for awhile, plug it back in and turn it on, the picture is normal but only for a few minutes. This issue happens on all inputs. Any ideas as to what component could be the culprit? Prior to this, we would periodically see a white vertical line (about an inch wide) on the right side of the screen.

Thanks,
G...
