I replaced one fuse on it and same issue.Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
You may have a faulty Y-Sus if the fuse blew. Here's what I'd do:
(1) Check all Y-Sus and Z-Sus fuses.
(2) Check all standard panel voltages:
Power supply: VS and VA
Y-Sus: VSC and -Vy
Z-Sus: Vzb (aka Zbias)
Edit:
If you're unsure how to do the voltage checks, I can diagram them for you tonight. Also, there are lots of threads that mention the voltage checks specifically for LG-based TVs like yours.Last edited by capkid; 10-31-2013, 03:04 PM.Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Yes, please do. I would much appreciate the diagram and I will check, I appreciate all the help. I'll stand by on ordering a z- sus board.
Thanks

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Ok, here you go. The voltage checks are listed on the pictures I've attached. The black and red arrows denote the black and red probes. If there is no black arrow included for a test point, that means your black probe should be placed on chassis ground (a metal part of the back of the TV is fine). Post a pic of the panel label that lists the voltages so we can help you compare your readings to the label.Attached FilesLast edited by capkid; 10-31-2013, 09:46 PM.Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Tom. this is a great help. Thank you for taking the time to break it down..Although I do have a problem with a set that i am working on, that is real similiar to your posts.. I have a 50pfp5332d/37 and it came to me with sound and no picture. Normally i would do a little testing and then replace the x or y sustain boards.. Although I have been working to become more confident in component level repair. So guys with this being said voltages were a little off and i was thinking that something was dragging them down or bumping them up. so i've checked all fuses including the thru-hole and sm ..All fuses are good, so i was looking at the ysus and noticed that the voltage on the lower half was gone and like 1/2 of what things should have been.. Then I notice a mosfet or power ic 7 leg MR4720 is the part number marking and a pin is burned in half. so I have ordered a couple of them, only available from hong kong, and am waiting to see if this fixes the set.. I guess my question is DO YOU THINK SOMETHING OTHER THAN THIS PART CAUSED IT TO FAIL? I iwll let you know once that part arrives abd soldered in. Is there anything else I should look for? I will post a pic of the part and the location on the board tomorrow. thanks again jamieComment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
vinceroger69, thanks for the link there is some really good inforamtion here. thanks again..If anyone knows where i can get ccfl replacement tubes for sharp lc6554u sharp 65" i need ccfl. also if there is a way to trick the set into thinking it has the bulb please post or nessage me. I have one bad ccfl in the set and have moved it to the bottom of the screem but cant find a replacement and have a huge tv taking up space in repair area due to bad bulb..thanks jamieComment

I changed the fuse that was blown on the toshiba and has not blown since, whst is the more complex issue?Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
I would do the voltage checks to establish a baseline then worry about other possibilities afterwards.Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Ok this is what I got
Vs-172.9
Va-55.4
VZb-.60
Vsc 1.26-9.94 fluctuated between these numbers
-Vy .7-1.5 fluctuated between these
Hope this helps us trouble shootComment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Your Vs is really low - unlikely to be your problem but do adjust it later.
-Vy and Vsc are faulty which indicates a Y-sustain fault.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Agree with Tom. The Vzb is also low or not measured correctly. It should be 100V. When the fuse on the Y-Sus blows, it's usually an indication that the large IC under the big heat sink has shorted.

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
So not the z-sustain board. ?Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
At a minimum, your Y-Sus is bad. Your Z-Sus may also have issues if the Vzb voltage reading you posted is accurate. Typically, the recommendation is to replace the large IC on BOTH boards at the same time.Comment

Re: A guide to fixing/troubleshooting some common plasma TV problems
Ok Tom, here are the pics of the back of my TV. To refresh, it is an LG. Model no. RU42PZ61. I have located the place to send the board for repair, but need to know which part I am supposed to remove.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/6871QCH038A-...item2a22d26aa4
So here is a pic of inside. This is with the small access panel removed. Do I have to remove the entire back or just the smaller access panel? How do I know which part I am after?Attached FilesTrying to fix my: LG Model no. RU42PZ61Comment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.
Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.
I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.
The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.
With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic... -
Problem
This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached.... -
Hi There,
This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.
After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

TV Model - LG OLED77G1PUA
Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt... -
Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.
Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
CN6401
Pin 01 NC
Pin 02 NC
Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
Pin 04 "N/C"
Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
Pin 06 "GND": N/C
Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...
