Hitachi 42 Plasma TV

Hi,

Got home, turned TV on and vertical white lines. Changed TV Input and colors changed. Took out Monitor In and still had lines. Turned on DVD and still had lines. Even unplugged the TV, still had lines. Do you think the TV is toast or can be repaired?

    The lines only move when you hit the TV Input. They move from Right side of screen to the middle of screen and change from white to yellow.

Do the lines move at all, or are they static? Someone else had a similar problem, and a fix that might work for you was posted at:

Good luck!

    If the lines are moving at all, even with changing the input select, then that's probably a good sign. You may want to try buying an inexpensive ground isolator to help with possible power interference or grounding issues. It couldn't hurt to try this easy fix first before investing any money in sending it out for repair. I hope this solves your problem!
