Fix Panasonic Plasma TV Vertical or Horizontal Bars

This video covers how to fix a Panasonic 42 Plasma TV model TH-42PX600U that has vertical distorted or solid black bars. This fix may also apply to other Panasonic Plasma TVs models as well as other Plasma TV manufurers. Most Plasma TVs have a similar design and therefor can be effected by a similar problem (poor ribbon cable connection).\r
\r
A similar fix is possible for horizontal distorted or solid black bars on your Plasma TV. Instead of cleaning & reseating the ribbon on the bottom of the TV, you clean & reseat the ribbon on the left (or right) of the TV corresponding to the bad row.\r
\r
It has been over four years since I made this video and the problem has not returned. The TV picture quality is great. I hope others have similarly long lasting results.\r
