SOURCE: No picture, audio OK, HP PL4260N, outside HP's repair for common Problem

Yes you have to replace the Y scan board... the bad part is that this is a common problem with the HPL4260 model TVs and HP knows it. However they will refuse to fix this issue if your TV does not fall with in their serial range of those they claim have faulty parts. I called HP, and the hardware Tech admitted that HP used some cheap sub standard parts in ALL of the models shipped HPL4260... not just the ones in the serial range they (HP) claim... this was yesterday (03 December 2008). However since HP no longer even carries the parts you have to buy them yourself... you can find the parts here: http://www.ued.net/website/index.html

you will need to buy: TNPA3243AB-PA and TNPA3242-PA the Upper and Lower data output scan boards.... aka Y scan... that is according the the HP Tech I spoke to...

it is going to be a failure of the Z sustain board if you can see dark video. you can either replace the Z sustain board or the IPM that is bad on the Z sustain. the board is about $175.00 or so part number is 6871QZH034 I THINK.

My LG 42pc1DV has sound normal but picture just died and is blacl, before this happened I had a lot of green pixels that only showed up across screen on dark pictures, 4 year old and just out of warrenty

Either your Y sustain board went out or your upper and lower Y buffer boards went out. Worst case scenario is your panel went out. But you won't know without replacing the other boards first.

I have a LG 42PC3D. For quite a few months it had multiple "red dotting" around the left side and bottom left that only was bothersome when the 'scene' was dark...it did not affect it when the...

It sounds like you may have a Y sustain board failure. If you open the set, the large board to your left is the Y sustain. Most of them have part numbers on the board and you can order it from a LG supplier or LG them selves. 1800-243-0000

I have snow on a black screen when nothing is on.It is a LG 42PC3D I still have a picture when I hook up my HDMI. How do I get rid of the snow.

Sounds like your y-sustain board is getting ready to go. You need to have a shop replace it along with the z-sustain board to fix it. Hope this helps.

LG PDP42X3 No Picture - I have sound and blue power button in front but no picture. How do I tell if the ceramic fuse is blown? They are all still pure white. If they are not blown, does that help with...

This condition, sound no picture, is generally a result from a failed y-sustain and/or x-sustain board. You can check the fuse for continuity or resistance using a multimeter. I am helping someone repair their LG 42pc3d, that's why I thought I'd help you out too.

Red dots all over screen poor picture more when

This is a "mal-discharge" fault & will need either an adjustment on the Y-Sustain board or a software update to the control board. Contact your LG dealer to arrange someone to sort this out for you.

Sound but no picture

It's very likely the fuse on the Y-sustain board may have gone open circuit due either a fault with the sustain board or the buffer board. If this is ok then check if your Vs & Va voltages are present when switched on if yes you may have a fault with the control board.

LG "NO PICTURE" , IF FIX WILL RECUR? ,DID LG FIX DESIGN FLAW 42PC3D

I had same problem - no picture, but sound worked - LG 42PC3d - was two months past warranty, but LG agreed to fix it as a warranty call. Service guy was out within a week to replace the Z SUS(?) board. Works fine now. This must be a typical problem, as LG did fix it, even though the warranty had expired. Good luck.
