SOURCE: my tv is hitachi 55pd plasma

snoopmikeym - Have you found anything out on what is causing the line?? I am completely frustrated with Hitachi no tech help what so ever. The nearest service place is in a town of about 500 people and 30 miles away... I doubt they've worked on a 55" plasma before....

SOURCE: 42HDS69 42 in. Plasma has several thin green vertical lines in middle of screen

If the set is still in warranty, call for warranty service. If not and you feel comfortable working on the set, carefully open up the back and reseat all of hte cables and connectors. This can be caused by marginal connections inside the set.

Keep us posted on your progress and results.

I think that you have dry solder joints on either the vertical scan board, the focus board, the line output stage, or the chroma panel. Hope this helps.

I have an Hitachi 42 PMA400e Plasma Tv. The problem is that when I switch the unit on it gives me a picture for a brief second before going blank. This is happening on both the Video 1 & 2 channels....

I also have this television, and it baffled me too. Apparently the 42PMA400E isn't so much a television, it's more of just a "display unit". It hasn't got any built-in channels (can't even connect an aerial into it) and hasn't got any speakers either. To use as a television, you need to connect a reciever (I use a DVD player, as I only use it for the Xbox) to it to display the video, and get some surround sound speakers to connect to the DVD player.

Hi,

Did you check the cable connections? They may have become loose or have obtained some dust. I would suggest to disconnect the cables and reconnecting them. The cables could have also malfuntioned.
