Is it the LCD TV lamp?
newguyintown86 asked:
It’s a 42 inch Panasonic, 3 years old. The picture is now very fuzzy (dark and grainy). The other TV’s in the house are fine. Is it time to replace the bulb?
Yes, it is an LCD projection.

LCD’s don’t have replaceable lamps(cost effective). Is it a LCD Projection? Every model we have sold will normally just go all the way out and occasionally get dim/dark then go out, but not fuzzy or grainy. Is your tv a plasma? Most Panasonic’s are plasmas. If it is a plasma, then it’s fried. Hopefully you have LCD projection and $225 lamp will take care of problem.
