Blue spots at the corner of a Panasonic TV.?

Question

I have a 4" blue spot at three areas of my PT 61LCX65 LCD projection TV.

The spot is only visible during certain lighting conditions.

Any ideas.

Answer 1

I had the exact same problem.  It's a corrupt EPROM.  

You have two solutions.

1. Find Part No. LSUQ0100 which is a jig device to reprogram the EPROM.

2. Call Panasonic tech support and tell them about the problem and the will send a tech to fix it for free

Since you have to be a Panasonic Tech to be able to buy the part plus you probably won't know what to do with it if you find it, I suggest #2.

It's a known issue and Panasonic is covering it even out of warranty.  Should take about 15 minutes if you have a knowledgable tech with the right equipment that makes houses calls.

Answer 2

Thumbs up to the above answer.  First thing to check before you call us, though (because we'll have you do it, anyway) is play back a movie and change the aspect to check if the spots move.
