The red cloud from the center of the screen is caused by a bad light engine. Original light engines for this model had insufficient ventillation. Replacements will last much longer.

I ordered mine through a local TV repair shop (Newport TV Repair). LE model number was UX22201DR - at the time ('06) it was about $615, which Hitachi paid for. I paid the labor which was $350. If the TV is out of warrantee, it's less expensive now to just buy a new plasma.I ordered mine through a local TV repair shop (Newport TV Repair).
