Deadish Goodman GTV42P6

[sabre504]

Hi I have a Goodman GTV42P6 plasma that I picked up to play around with (never touched one before) with the aim of repairing it so the kids can use it with the games consoles .
Bought as dead no power or standby lights opened it up and checked the psu after reading about repair kit and tested what I could before replacing the blown fuse .
Screen now lights up but is grey and there is still no standby light .
The boards either side have green led's on them that are lit .
Basically is it worth buying a psu repair kit and seeing how it goes from there any input welcome can do pictures if needed

Ok bought a kit

IC1005 PC817 op coup
D1001 B250/1500 Bridge rec
R1018 R1019 22K 3Watt res
D1012 FUF4007 Diode
FS1001 3.15 amp fuse
ZD1002 Zner 12v

Also changed C1031 as it was swollen and C1023 bit charred .

As yet not changed the zener as i wanted to check voltage before fitiing
one side showed no volts other showed 0.7v and still have grey screen no standby light

Right problem solved thanks to FIXITNOW i went back and rechecked everything tracing as to why i had no voltage at the zener diode .
All components checked ok until out of frustration i checked the fuse and it was dead popped in a new one and all fired up .

So moral of this misadventure even if its new check it

Interesting. Looks a lot like a Panasonic plasma TV, but with the Goodmans name on it. I didn't know Panasonic sold panels to other manufacturers...
