It is located top of light engine. left side, fan is on the right.Black plastic vent facing up-wards.Right over a circuit board that has a wire going to the fan.Take out 4 gold screws filter is inside.
You can wash it w/MILD soap and water. MAKE SURE IT COMPLETLY DRY before you re-install it.Or use air in a can.
DO NOT BLOW air into the vent.You will damage the lcd by blowing dust on it. or cracking it if air gets cold. Hold can UP-RIGHT so air is NOT cold. If you need picts. Contact me at [email protected] Hope this helps. Todd

All of these projection tvs have an air filter - the bulbs get very hot and require air to circulate to cool them - without a filter you would get an effect similar to insects flying around in front of the set due to dust particles, which are also possibly able to damage the bulb. here is the link for the operating manual for your set if you need it, although it doesnt describe the location of the filter; http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/vProdSupportModel?displayTab=R&surfModel=PT-60LCX63&modelNo=PT-60LCX63&storeId=15001&catalogId=11017&itemId=64594&displayServiceCenter=true# If you are comfortable opening up the set yourself, first try to figure out where the cooling fan sucks air in from. somewhere between the outside of the set and the fan will be the filter - if you are struggling to find it still then try posting us a photo or two of the inside of the set - hopefully we can identify the filter - panasonic/matsushita reccommend very much that you do not replace the filter yourself, there are obviously issues that are more complicated than just taking a mesh screen out and cleaning it, so be careful. Hope this helps some - please post back with photos if you are still determined to try yourself, else if you can give me your general location i can try and find a local service centre that can deal with the problem. :)
