Diagnosis by Test Pattern

In case of PDP, the picture problem at all over the screen (Picture Noise, Full Vertical Line) is mainly caused by D or DG (A) board defective. This Test Pattern is able to diagnose D or DG (A) board. Because, D board had Test Pattern. So, we can judge by using Test Pattern which is defective. Regarding diagnosis for these board,  confirm as follows.

All Models  Picture Noise, Full Vertical Line

Enter the Test Pattern

1. While pressing "VOLUME-" button of the TV set, press "RECALL" button of the remote control three times within 2 seconds.

2. Push button "1" of Remote Controller several times, and select "OPTION" setting.

3. Press "OK" button of Remote controller for three seconds or more to place the unit in the test pattern.

In case of No picture problem (Sound OK), the defective board is mainly DG (A) or D board. But in this case, Test Pattern isn’t useful for diagnosis. Because, this symptom can not display OSD and not enter to the Service Mode. This method is possible to judge the defective board in this symptom.
