I usually just fix LCDs and don't really like dealing with plasma tvs since I never have much luck with them (probably fixed 1 out of 5 :[ ). But this one was given to me for free so its worth a shot. Though with my luck I don't have much hope.
TV symptoms are, after the power button is pushed, the TV makes the ON sound however no picture appears on the screen (no light on TV at all, even in a dark room).
Checked the screen for any internal cracks but there isn't any. So I'm most likely concluding it has a bad Y-sustain and probably bad y-buffers as well? What do you guys think?
I checked two fuses on the YSus Board and both are good. No burn marks on the IC leads of the buffer board HOWEVER the uppermost IC looks like it blew and burned from the top of the chip with two white spots (see photos)
I don't know much about plasmas either. Having all those different boards in a plasma always seems to scare me sometimes lol.
