Sometimes when turning on the screen the left hand side (full half screen) picture is distorted showing a multi colored picture. The right hand side is perfect. Can anyone help?
The set uses two boards to drive the screen --one for each half or side.
Different names are used like sustain or in LCD sets inverter.

Just taken mine in for repair and was told this. "After checks to Switching and Data flow to PDP, Suspect the Plasma display panel to be at fault
which also may well have caused damage to the buffer and logic boards."
I am presently trying to get currys to replace it as it 18 months old.
Forgot to say was quoted £1200 to fix!!!!

most likely this is your y or x sustain boards and if that does not fix it . it could your pdp panel cost varise on part . The cost of your pdp panel is very expesive this th has lots of problems. I would call your local tv shop and have them give you a estimate.First ask thme how much they charge for a estimate. good luck.
Thanks doctor video

it you have a repair skills you need to open the TV and make sure all the ribon connectors around the circuit boards are proper connected
and if all seems to be ok, the DG board will need to be replaced.
If you dont have any repair skills I would recommend you to take you TV to a repair shop since this is complex repair

If the screen split is exactly 50/50 top/bottom You are not getting SU or Scan Upper drive.
These are lovely set to work on.
Most likely is SU board itself - Not repairable just to be replaced.
Sorry I work in the UK so I can only guide that the UK part is around £30
SU may have been damaged by failure if the PDP (Plasma Display Panel) but is 9 years only had 2 screens damage the SU board.
There are several setups to do after fitting a PDP. If you don't have the service data - Do not risk it, Reduced life of the Panel and a safety risk.

I had the same issue. I am going to replace my scan buffer boards. The upper half of mine works but the lower half is black so I would replace the lower Scan buffer board but in case of future issues I have ordered both upper and lower for $44.
The scan buffer boards are fairly simple to locate. Open up back of tv there are two biffer boards identical. The item or product code on them contain letters either SU or SD (Scan up and Scan down)Look up tv parts and item code you will find a place to order or just get the 1 800 number from tv manufacturer.

Thanks SD Tech. Does this mean there is a dodgy connection to the left board or even that the board needs relacing? The problem doesn't happen all the time and is often rectified by turning the set on and off a number of times.
