Insignia 42 in plasma tv

Sometimes when I'm watching a show there appears like a flash of light on the picture or a red spot once in awhile. The TV is only 6 months old. The flash seems to be maily in one spot but once in a while appear in another spot. Thanks for any help

    I have the same problem with flashing in the middle of the screen when white is present. As the tv warms up it gets worse. I work in Comcasts Headend as an engineer and have tried to use Sat feeds, DVD,DVR Comcast direct feed and have determined that this happens on all of the inputs. P.S. What is the deal with the TV coming on as a default. Twice we have had the power go out and at 3:00am when the power comes on so does the TV. Cableman

Cableman try this exactley to the "T" with the instructions in front of you. The procedure resets your monitor to factory settings. On step 13 use the factory setting on the right side menu block not the left. It may or may not work if you have a bad board or eeprom. 1. Using the Volume button (Remote or Monitor) turn the volume all the way down.
2. Hold the Menu button on the Monitor.
3. Press the Menu button on the Remote.
4. Press and hold the Volume button on the remote for 5 seconds and then release the Menu button on the Monitor. After this step the date will appear on the left side of the screen within 10 seconds.
5. Click the Menu button on the remote.
6. Click the Left Arrow button on the remote.
7. By using the Down Arrow button, scroll to Settings and then click the Left Arrow button.
8. Highlight "Eepreset" and click the Left Arrow button. (The monitor will turn off at this time)
9. Push the Power button on the remote, the unit will turn back on.
10. Click the Menu button on the remote.
11. Click the Left Arrow button on the remote.
12. By using the Down Arrow button, scroll to Settings and then click the Left Arrow button.
13. Highlight Factory and click on the Left Arrow button to select "Off"
14. Click Menu on the remote.

Picture goes out and red power light flashes

Up , i also encountered the same problem 3 days ago. 42" Fujitsu Plasmavission. I'll try to call an expert, i hope its not a digital board again for me, it will cost around $2,000usd so better buy a new Korean made LCD for better and cheaper parts. I guess you also experiencing trmendous heat at the back of your plasma right?

New 42inch plasma turned off while watching, can't turn on

Panasonic requires an authorization number first from them. Our parts suppliers require that before we can even order the part. I recommend calling a svc co. to have it looked at, preferably an authorized panasonic service center, it will be much faster.

No picture, sound ok

I have a similar issue. Sometimes the entire screen goes black and sometimes only one-half - either the top or bottom half goes black. The only solution we have found is to gently tap the TV (usually the front side) and the picture will come back for awhile. It almost seems heat related as it only goes out after the first 10 minutes of use. There must be a fix to this.
