Black bar in middle of screen

There is a wide (about 4-5'') vertical bar running through the center of the screen. where did it come from? is there a way to remove it?

  • wsong1 Mar 21, 2009

    It's a plasma and the line is vertical - up and down - not across - about 5" wide

    Is your set an LCD or Plasma? Is the bar black? Up-down or Top-bot?

It is either the Plasma display panel or a upper or lower buffer board. If the display is bad, they are almost the price of a new set. I suggest letting a local service company look at it to be sure.

2" wide bar in center of Panasonic plasma TH-C42FD18 TV

The C5 board is bad. It is replaceable. Warning. always disconnect power cables from power board to y main on left and x main on the rt before ever messing with fat cables on boards across the bottom . The are created if power power is not isolated will vaporize these flat cable destroying the plasm panel. thes boars across the bottom are the c boards. If one of the connectors is loose it will create an vertical black bar in proximity to that connector. If the connector is not loose then replace that board. Also panel could be bad if c board does not fix. But remember to never connect or dissconnect these flat without disconnecting the power board from the sustain boards.

Vertical black bar on my LG 47" LCD shifting the image to the right

Two possibilities are there. The first one is, with loose LVDS cable, that connects the T'Con board to display panel. The second is the fault with its main digital processor board.
