LG 42PC3D 42 in. Plasma Television Logo
Posted on Dec 06, 2009

I have an Lg plasma 42" and it has no color. It is used but was working in the store. I have red, green, blue cables hooked to my direct tv but it is black and white. Is my hook up correct. It also does this with dvd. Should I use s-video cable?

Try changing the cables to s-video or hdmi to see if the problem solves. It could be defect or reverse component cables

The people are blue and we have no option for changing the colour

the component video cables are switched around. there are 3 colors for video - green, blue and red
two for sound - white and red

make sure you didn't swap the red cables, or swap the blue and red, this is most likely the cause of your issue, check on both the sat box and on the tv

let me know if you require further assistance

The picture is good but i noticed color sprinkle red and green

that could be a high voltage that feeds the panel, that can be adjusted (that voltage need to be verified first)
Also there is a couple of boards that may be creating the problem (X & Y main boards )

My husband moved the tv from one table to another, and now the color is all screwed up. Mostly purple and green. What's the problem? It's an Hitachi 42" plasma tv.

Usually this is caused by unproperly hooked up component video cables. Check the green, blue and red component video cables on the tv and on the device (cablebox) to hopefully solve the issue. Sometimes one just pulls loose also

Sansui 42" Palsma

I assume you are saying that the DVD player only has RCA jacks. It would be good to know if the DVD player has Component output as that is the preferred output. You will know this if the RCA jacks on the DVD are color coded green, blue and red.... You would by a set of component cables, hook to DVD matching colors and then find the same color code on input of the TV. You must also run the red and white cable from the DVD output to the TV input for audio. The input on the TV would be labled component in or input and a #. Simply select the input, or source button on remote to select the input that matches your choice and all should function. If there is no component on the DVD output and only a composit hook up (color code by yellow, red, white) again just match that to the corresponding input on the TV.
