    AKAI 50" plasma tv no picture no sound

    I have an Akai 50' plasma tv with no picture and no sound , It started about a month ago when one day I try to turn the tv on, it power up with no pic and no sound, but I tried turning it on with the main power switch on the back of the set, some time it will power up with the Akai logo and blue screen for a second or two then the screen will disappear after a few second the akai logo will appear again and disappear and it will repeat it self over and over.
    I opened the back cover and check all the out put voltage , I got 5v , which is stable ,Va 60 v which is stable and Vs 190v which did look to be stable but as I keep checking the all the voltage every now and then I notice that the Vs190
    V was fluctuating from I90v down to 159v and up again , I do not see any bad or bulged caps , I disconnect the Z board and check the voltage still the same
    disconnect the Y board the power drop even lower, when I connect all the boards 5v become stable 60V become but the Va will show 190 v then after a few seconds will start to drop and rise .
    I have three light on , on the ctrl board , some time the d2 light will go off , and comes on back .
    I know the y , Z and Y sustain board are ok ,I am thinking of main board .

    Any and all help is highly appreciated

    Can you post some pics of the board?

        Can you measure the voltage across the input cap?

        (I'm suspecting either the input mains cap, or the PDP HV caps.)

          Tom I will check the voltage on the caps first thing in the morning and post it.
          also I have noticed that one of the diode, #is ST02D-200 (200V 300watts)there is no resistance .
          thanks

            No resistance? Zero ohms or open loop? Did you try diode test mode?

              Hitachi 55HDS69 55" Plasma TV - No Picture But Sound
              by KYBOSH
              Picked up a bahemoth plasma TV not too long ago and just now getting around to looking at it.
              No picture but you hear the TV static (white noise) playing loud and clear.
              The back was already taken off (and no screws were provided) as the previous owner had already taken a look.
              But it seems they didn't get too far and just left it.

              When I first took a look I was amazed at how pristine the inside looked.
              Its as if the TV had been in a time capsule.
              Caps looked like they were just pulled off the self.
              Copper coils had no sign of corrosion on...

              Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
              by TR103
              Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
              - sound and backlight, but no picture
              - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
              - it keeps rebooting
              - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
              - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

              Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
              by Mgiffune
              I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

              I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and
              ...

              Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
              by Ierwin
              Hello everyone,
              Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
              The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
              He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
              I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
              Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

              Samsung UN70NU6900F no picture and no sound
              by jchang
              Hi all

              I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



              Symptom:
              No picture no sound.
              When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
              No sound at all.



              What I tried:
              1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...
