LG Plasma screen just went nuts

The screen to my 42PC3DV-UD.A LG Plasma TV just went berserk on me. The screen is very fuzzy and flickers on and off. I can see images trying to get through but nothing is clear. Just fuzzy images. Half the screen has lighter pixelation, the other half is dark. Wondering if there is a module I can replace to fix it.

It could be any of 4 boards, either take it in for service or get a new set.

The Lg you have actually has three boards that can cause the problem you are talking about. The control board, the y-board or the z-board. Usually most technicians will change the y-board and z board together since it is usually a combination of both that cause the problem. The control board by itself can cause the problem. The part #'s are as follows and these are straight from the LG plasma tv training manuals. 1- Control board 6871QCH053G, 2- Y board 6871QYH036D, and the Z-board is
6871QZH041B. The boards can be checked by looking at the voltages and signals but as I said some of those problems for no picture interrelate between boards. Hope this helped. Also with the back cover off those boards are clearly marked. The y board is a small board on the left and the Z board is on the right. The control board is of course in between them. They have tiny white stickers with the part # and assy# on them an also directly on the board itself. Always disconnect the power cord when looking at the inside by taking the back cover off.

I have a lg 42pc3dv plasma tv. it made a loud pop

Looking at it from the back, the board on the left is the ysus. You should see a big red cable coming from the power supply board in the middle of the set going to the ysus. Near the red cable plug on the ysus should be a fuse. Most likely the fuse has blown. If it is you need a ysus PCB. Check out encompassparts.com. If you get a new board be sure to set all the controls on the new board to match the old board. If you don't you will have little sparkles all over the screen when it comes back on. I hope this helps. You may want to check all fuses on the power supply and the zsus which is on the right side of the set. I have seen both the ysus and zsus be bad together. Good luck and thanks.

WON'T TURN ON.

Powerboard damaged, if you could not see the Led light on stanby mode it means you have no power at all.

Go ahead and replace your powerboard and your TV will be Ok

Yes you need to replace the board LG 6871QYH048B. The board has a short. Check the fuses and one of them should have no continuity
because it is open.

Replace that board and problem solved
