The spot doesnt move and looks like someone shining a green spotlight on the screen. Panasonic is sending a tech, and informed me that if the problem is what they think it is they will fix it for free. My tv is 4 years old and out of warranty.
We had a similar problem with colored dots all over the screen. It looked like a 70's disco light box except the colors didn't move or blink. Even though the TV was out of warranty, Panasonic sent a tech. According to him, it is a software problem with the light engine?!? Whatever that is. Anyway, they paid for the fix.
Take the offer,even they charge u it will still cheaper than the repair shop and quicker too,because they have the parts with them they don't have to trouble shoot like the shop,if the prob.the shop never seen it before.

TV turns off after 5-10 min. Replaced the bulb about 2 months ago. Couldnt reset the timer because I don't have the original remote. Lamp Light has stayed on and message comes on when turning on TV.

Does this have something to do with not resetting the timer or is the bulb going bad or is it something worse?

TV was working fine this morning. Turned it on this afternoon and no picture. Green power light comes on and flashes. TV makes a faint rapid clicking noise that might repeat a few times.
