Why not repair the plasma pixel cell?
A 42″ plasma display TV with 1024X768 resolution has 786,432 individual pixel cells. There is no way to effectively repair one pixel cell because they are enclosed in the plasma display element “envelope”. Replacing the plasma display element is considered more costly than replacing the entire plasma display. While only 1 in 100 plasma displays may have a pixel cell defect, there have been less and less instances of this occurrence.
