Line Open or Short with the Same Distance
This is an MCM of Control board defect. The MCM cannot be
replaced separately. So replace the Control board.

5.1.4
Bar Defect (Horizontal)
Most horizontal defects can be repaired. In case of adherence
between a part of the film and the rear panel electrode, or a
panel electrode open/short, replace the PDP panel.
Connector
If the connectors on the Y board and Z board are not plugged
in well, it can result in a horizontal bar, because the sustain
voltage cannot be supplied to the panel. So check the FPC
connectors and YSUS<->YDRV first.

Scan IC Check
Check the diode value of the right side part of the output pin.

5.1.5
Line Defect (Horizontal)
FPC Check
In case of one or more horizontal lines, this is probably due to
FPC or panel inside the Control board. Y board is just normal.
