How to fix common plasma TV problems- no picture, lines, buttons not working

[@iheartmacsconsulting7096]

Really appreciate you going through the "growing pains" of diagnosing this issue and posting it. So what.. this video didn't have a fix. I learned so much from your process. Don't listen to the haters. It's guys like us out there creating content that helps out the cause. Your a G to me

[@user-fv8zq5hs4d]

Best informative video online, clear and precise. good work Tampatec

[@BallinMafia]

Thanks dude! Your explanation of the purpose of the boards help me fix my problem!!

[@oljim6407]

Thank you for the help. Good video, informative and quick about it.

[@ichabodcrane2816]

Great video! My Samsung PN42A450P1DZXA has the single vertical line just like the one shown in your video. Finding your video confirms my suspicion that it's a logic control problem and not the plasma screen. TV works, I just have the single vertical line 3 inches from the right side. I'm anxious to try a new Logic Control Board and see it fixes the issue. Fingers crossed!

[@ichabodcrane2816]

+Ichabod Crane Replacing the Logic Control Board did NOT remove the vertical line on the screen as it did in your video. The line appears no matter what the input, so is it possible the (input) MAIN BOARD is defective? Thanks.

[@MrEricSteib]

I had the same results after replacing the control board. Did you ever find a fix?

[@ichabodcrane2816]

Every tech I spoke to including one who deals with SAMSUNG directly told me it's a BAD PANEL. Common issue. I have not yet tried the MAIN BOARD because I moved and the Plasma is back in the original box.

[@ichabodcrane2816]

Well, I'm finally settled in a new location and I'm still using my Plasma with the vertical line. I have not found the MAIN BOARD I purchased prior to all the moving, that's twice, so I'm unable to confirm my gut feeling that it is NOT the panel. The line does disappear at times. For example, when I use my ROKU and select Hulu, the screen is black with the Hulu logo and there is NO line. If the panel was bad, wouldn't the line always be there when there is video on the screen? That's my conundrum. I've learned to live with the line, since most of the time I don't see it consciously until I think about it. As far as I'm concern, NOTHING will ever beat the Plasma picture. I've viewed OLED, Q-LED and XLED and concluded that none of them have a truly natural picture. Their picture is two dimensional, lacking any depth and natural flesh tones don't exist.

[@Lijah578]

Thank you for posting this video Tampatec! I also have vertical lines; unfortunately I replaced the control board; so did the original previous owner. What I should I try now!? Thanks a lot!

Check tcon Cable connections too. Shopjimmy.com sells cables and has good info.

[@thinkaboditichabodit5853]

I've been using my Samsung PN42A450P1DZXA with that same vertical modulating line shown in the video. I tried replacing the control board as you showed, but the line remained. Everything else works as it should. I'm suspicious of the main board, finally found one, but haven't swapped it out. Recently, that single modulating green line had a visitor. Another single red vertical modulating line appeared about 4 inches towards center. And now it's Christmas and another green vertical modulating line appears at just about center. I still don't believe it could be the panel. Appreciate any input. I like this plasma too much to give it up! Thanks in advance TampaTec for any input.

[@craigbaltz4354]

I enjoy your explanations. I have a Panasonic TC-P42x1 Plasma I picked up to learn repair. The Red light blinks once then keeps blinking. The trouble shooting guide says the problem lies in the main board . I have not found anything on this model for component level repair.

[@Lijah578]

Thanks a lot! I have changed the control board twice, and I still get the vertical green lines. I'm wondering if the control boards are bad! Where did you get your control board from? Thanks again!

[@icenesiswayons9962]

Great video! Thanks for sharing with us. I have a Panasonic 52" plasma. The screen picture is split in the middle horizontally, creating two pictures inaffect top half and a bottom half, the top is shifted about a 1/4 of an inch to the right. So they don't quite sync. So now there are 2 pictures, the top half and the bottom half. Both of which are doing the exact same things. Starts when turned on and last for about 6 minutes. Top half has horizontal black scan looking lines, getting thicker as it get to the bottom of that half. The bottom half of the split picture is doing the exact same thing. As the top half. After about 6 minutes the lines start to disappear. Once they are completely gone the whole picture syncs up again, with no evidence of it even occuring. Set is 13 years old and this is the first trouble I've had with it, never taken apart, just had the vents cleaned from time to time. When I first bought it you could hear a fan cooling after you shut it down, lasted about 4 minutes after you shut it down. Haven't heard the fan in a while now that I've discovered this picture trouble. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

[@pacoog77]

@tampatec On the control board is the green light supposed to be flashing or solid?

[@sholly59]

I know this is a very old post, but my Samsung Plasma PN51F8500 has the same vertical line going down the center of the screen. You mention a CONTROL BOARD in your video, but I need more information than that. I'm not seeing anything on ShopJimmy that looks like the Control Board you replaced on your video. Can you tell me more about this control board and where to find one? Thanks SOOOOO Much! Gary

[@Sundaydinner.withthefamily]

Thank you for uploading. I have the same line problem. Can you please let me know where I can purchase the board to fix the line issue. I don't have the power issue. Thanks again. I feel relieved I can probably do this myself

[@zacpires2272]

Talking about control board and ribbon cable connections which added tape under the catch

[@magdolnamadarasz2936]

tampatec, the thin line /band you had in the first place im sure it wasnt solid, it almst looked fuzzy or grainy. Would i be correct?, and if so-would that point to it being the timing control board instead of the panel??

[@ronaldbrooker1081]

I have an older 42" Magnavox plasma tv. I believe the main card is bad. I have power to the screen and the picture works fine for the menu and startup. Unfortunately, when I connect any outside video, i.e.. cable or hdmi for dvd, the picture I get is mainly a green screen with scattered lines running randomly across the screen, like only part of the data is being processed. I've purchased 2 different main cards from 2 different fairly reputable sources and both give the same results, nothing, not even power to the on/off switch. The tv was free, so the cards I purchased were used and I'm wondering if I just ended up with 2 bad cards. Your input would be much appreciated.

[@moevit7725]

@TampaTec I have a 2014 Samsung Plasma TV (PN51F5500) that has developed a one pixel wide solid steady green vertical line that goes from top to bottom on the right side of my screen. It does not flicker and it's there no matter the input, coax, hdmi, etc. I've done a bunch of troubleshooting from voltage checks, to putting pressure or wiggling on the screen flex cables, to inspecting and cleaning board to board ribbon cables, and nothing shows problems or makes any difference to the screen, except for one thing. When it comes to the two ribbon cables that go from the tcon board to the bottom buffer boards, if I disconnect the left side ribbon cable, so only the right side of the screen gets image, then the vertical line becomes a solid steady blue instead of green. Then when I reconnect the left cable and disconnect the right cable, so only the left side of the screen has image, instead of it being a flawless picture, it has four vertical lines in the picture. Three of those lines are only one pixel wide, and the fourth looks to be two or three pixels wide. The wider line is a purply/black color, two are black, and one is green. Those four vertical lines are closer to the center of the screen and are all spaced about an inch or two apart, but are not equally spaced. When I reconnect the right cable (so both tcon ribbon cables are connected), everything goes back to as it was before disconnecting any cables, with the screen being flawless except for that green vertical line on the right side of the screen. I should also mention that about a week ago the tv did a firmware update (2230->2240). I didn't notice any problems between then and now, other than maybe what I would call a bit of slow motion here and there when specifically playing PS4 games, but that very well may be due to just the console and not the tv. I did speak to Samsung about this and they say there's no problem with the firmware and that's definitely not the problem. They also confirmed that the firmware can only be updated and never reverted for some reason. If I assumed there's not possibly a bug in the updated firmware, then it would seem to me that the likely cause is either tied to the screen itself (including the IC chips on the directly soldered flex cables) or some fault with the main processor board (because the tcon is built into it on this tv). If it were the processor board, then it would cover both a potential hardware or firmware problem with it. The processor board is still costly enough that I can't just wing it and hope it works, but if I can be relatively sure that's the problem, if it is, I will spend the money to keep the plasma going. I'm curious as to what you think? I know a solid steady colored line typically means a screen issue, but I can get the line color to change by disconnecting one ribbon cable, plus the opposite side of the screen shows lines as well with the other ribbon cable disconnected. It makes me question whether or not it is the screen that is actually the problem. Hopefully your experience can give me better guidance as to how to move forward.

[@brianhall8440]

Hi there, not sure if you are still answering questions but I just started getting a red line on my PN60f5300bf - Samsung 60 inch plasma. Picture works fine and we can still watch tv. I went to the shopjimmy site but doesn't look like there's a control board per your video available. Any help would be great, thanks!

[@legalsolutions07]

On a Samsung pn43d450a2d plasma TV do you what board will likely cause a couple of reddish blotches on the screen that flicker? The reddish blotches are most noticed when a white screen appears. I've changed the main power board, Y sustain board, X main board and the buffer board. I've not yet changed the logic board or the control board.

[@brightgodday7934]

This is a great work I love it but I'm still learning

[@Golden_unicorn]

Thanks for your fast reply, Do you think more than likely is the Y-sustain Board? after having the tv on for about 10 minutes the Z-board gets a little bit warm (not very warm), but the y-board don't seem to get warm at all,however the fuse did not blow again still holding. thanks again

Hey Tampatec, my tv was having the vertical line issue, like yours. I replaced the tcon board, but the line is still present. Do you have any idea what I can try next?

[@mannyrobinson2995]

Try cleaning all the vertical ribbon cables with a Q-tip in alcohol. I saw several other KZbin videos that fixed the vertical line issues that way. Any minor dust or dirt on them will sometimes cause those lines to appear. At least that won't cost you anything. Next step would be to replace the circuit board.

Hi good video , I was given a 65" HI def GL 1920x1080 with some picture color problems. checked the big coils on the boards and all had broken solder connections, resoldered them now have crystal clear pic. that's what I call a cheap investment TV. But there is a funny display on the black background it shows red dots, in the lateral position and moving, looks like a analog data signal, like code to be precise but it only does this when hard line linked to my computer ( making the tv a second display ) More notably when I view a torrented movie I downloaded. I'm not quite sure if it is the TV or not or it's with the data signals from the cpu. but it only does this with black. All other colors are fine. What's your thought ?

sara Iddings check standby voltage 5v on the power board if ok then main board can be defective if the main board output voltages are 0v but if the voltages are good going to the sustained boards it's possible one of your sustain boards is defective there is voltage labels either on the board or stamped on the back of the TV get TV boards at shopjimmy.com order electropartsonline.com. use code tampatecfriend for discount 😉 also check tv repair playlist on my channel to troubleshoot TVs

I have a 50"Samsung Plasma TV it is less than 6 yrs old. A very thin black line has appeared across the middle of the screen. What is wrong and can it be repaired?
