You should only ever take the back of any electrical device if you know what you are doing. A lot of people have been electrocuted whilst working on electrical devices or they have cause damage leaving the TV useless. If you know someone that has has experience of disassembling electrical devices or repairing them, ask them to do the cleaning.

Hi, I have an Hitachi 42PD9700 plasma TV. When the TV is off you can see a mottled/patchy area on the top right hand side of the screen (this is still visible when the TV is on if you look closely). This...

Same problem. Gray clouds INSIDE the external (plexi)glass of the screen.
I guess either:
1 - Screen collection dust or some electrostatic phenomenon.
or
2 - Some coating peeling off.

1 may be solved by dismounting and cleaning.

Any solution you know about ?

Red light is on but the tv wont work

Unplug tv, open the back and vacuum all dust that you can see... also remove the power supply board and brush/vacuum the back side. Hold any metal part while you're vacumming to eliminate the effect of static electricity. Good luck.

Hitachi 42 inch plasma tv shuts off by it self

This is not really a solution, but read on... I had these symptoms in my 42 inch Hitachi plasma also.When I took it in to get it looked at , I was told that dust was accumulating on and around the cooling fans.He gave it a quick cleaning ( vacuuming I assume) and it worked for a while then started malfunctioning again. Now I'm trying to decide whether to just pitch it or keep cleaning it myself.Hope this helps.
