I own a LG 42PC3DVA Plasma TV, and I have these little white spots that appear on the screen. It does not effect my viewing that much but every now and then I focus in on these spots. They don't appear on the dark colors only on the bright colors especially red. What is the problem and how can I fix it?

Hi
I just bought a 42pc5d plasma tv it's an LG I bought it in Sept. 07 it started doing the exact same thing your talking about here the red glow type thing. Luckily for me and I hope in your case that the tv is under warranty, although if you know someone or even a repair place I don't think it would cost much to fix (just a guess but the guy told me that it was an easy fix so don't let them try to screw you). It really is a simple fix according to the tech. You need to adjust the voltage. He took the tv and watched it until he saw the red and adjusted the voltage and I had my tv back the next day. This was about a week ago and I haven't seen it since. I hope this helps and I hope you have a warranty. By the way LG comes with a 2 year manufacturer's warranty standard so if you didn't get an extended warranty from where you bought it if it's less than 2 years old call LG and they will arrange to have it fixed that's what I did. Here's the number 1-888-542-2623. Good luck.

Have you tried adjusting the contrast within the sky menu.
go to services and alter the settings from there, maybe change the outout from rgb to cyan/red/green.

The dancing spots can be sorted by you taking the back panel off and adjusting the va and vs adjusting nobs , you will need a multimeter so you you can adjust the voltage to the right settings that are on a sticker on the back of the panel. You must remember to connect the black pointer to the earthed wire to get and the red to the live wire that has va or vs at the end of it. The right voltage measurements will be be found on a sticker at the back of the panel.
I advise you not to touch the setup and setdn nobs as these are factory settings and should not be touched.
If the va and vs do not sought the problem then try the vy and vsc adjusting nobs but only touch those if the va and vs does not fix your problem first.
Once you have done everything right your tv should be better then before with clearer pictures.
I hope this helps and be careful not to get zapped.

I have the same model and went to the www.lge.com support site and did a "chat" explained the same issue as you ... in dark areas, there are many red pixels ... 2 days later an LG tech came to the house and told me that is the result of multiple dead pixels and a "misfire" in the chip board. He said that LG had a zero tolerance policy and he would replace all parts inside or replace the TV if parts are not available. Very nice gentlemen and very nice chat support. I would do the same if I were you, which is exactly what I did.
