I wish to use closed captioning but I can't find the function on my Panasonic TH-42PWD6 monitor. Does it have a closed captioning function, and if so how can I turn it on and off? Thanks.

Hello in plug unit and check for blown fuse

yes, go to menu and find close caption then enter then you able to choose off/ON,

Check whether closed caption function is ON or not. If it is PN, make it OFF. Refer the user manual to your TV for details. If you do not have its user manual with you now, click here to download it.

Hello; If there is a black box covering part of the picture, it is likely a " TEXT " box that is used with " closed captioning " Read your owner's manual to see how to TURN OFF all closed captioning functions. Download the manual if you don't have one. John

I had a similar problem with the blue tint going away. I solved it by replacing the terminal board with a new component board I picked up on eBay. You can also use the PC input with a D-sub connector using a component cable adapter.

If connected to a HD cable or satellite box then disable the closed captioning there.

If you are connected via a HD cable or satellite box. The closed captioning has to be turned off on that device instead.

Just use he remote and push the cc button or the display button until cc off appears on the screen

Assuming whatever your TV receiving from has close caption. (Not all TV channel has close caption) Solution 1) Get a new universal remote that support your model and has close caption button. Once you program in the code for your TV model and it works then all button should also programmed including th close caption button. Solution 2) Search online for the owner manual and read see how to turn it on using buttons on TV (if possible). Solution 3) Get new TV with close caption. (If you have an old old TV with bad and huge pixels then this solution is the best. Your eyes will thank you.)
