    HP PL5060N Plasma cycling inputs randomly

    Hello all,

    I have an HP PL5060N 50 inch plasma TV that seems to cycle through it's inputs at random times, always after running for an amount of time. I've read that this could be due to the main board heating up, but there doesn't seem to be a clear cut "solution"

    Just wanted to see if I could get any opinions from any of the guys on this forum who have a lot of experience in fixing sets.

    Is there a "fix" for this or is it just best to go ahead and replace the board?



    Thanks all!

      It might be the button board - the board which has the volume/input/power etc. buttons on it.

      You will need to disassemble the TV and unplug the button board. If that fixes it, try using some contact cleaner on the buttons...

          thanks a lot for the tip tom. i'll be sure to try this when I get the TV opened up. everything should function save the buttons if I remove this board correct? I have a remote to control the TV with.

              In most cases. Some* manufacturers put the IR receiver on the button board, so you wouldn't be able to just unplug it if you want to control the TV with just the remote. The contact cleaner worked a treat for my LCD TV though.

              *Samsung and LG do on some of their TVs.

                  Hello everybody, I could use some help on this one... It's got me guessing...
                  I took pictures of all the boards and the pin out of the connector on the power supply that goes to the main board... I measured all the pins in relation to chassis ground, here are the result.

                  (B13v)1. 12.7 volts cycling (Vamp) 2. 12.7 volts cycling
                  (B13v)3. 12.7 volts cycling (PWM5) 4. 1.0 volts cycling
                  (OD_LE)5. 2.8 volts cycling (PWM4) 6. 0.9 volts cycling
                  (OD_ON)7. 2.8 volts cycling (PWM3) 8. 0.9 volts cycling
                  9. ground (PWM2) 10. 0.9 volts cycling...

                  Samsung PN50C540G3FXZA 50" Plasma, power cycling, Y-Main problem, Canada
                  by bcstedt
                  Just starting to crack into this one and wanted to get the ball rolling.

                  At power on (plug in), power light on, relays click, repeat (sometimes)

                  After disconnecting Y-Main from SMPS power stays on and boot up jingle is heard from speakers

                  Removed Y-Main for inspection and testing

                  Hi all

                  There's two other threads about this monitor with seemingly the same problem. The problem was resolved in one case by replacing the entire PSU board and in the second one by replacing an unknown IC.

                  https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=40512

                  The first one has pictures of the pcbs and I noticed that there's one IC and assorted caps not populated on mine (but the PCB itself looks identical) so I thought that'd warrant a new thread.

                  It's my dad's old monitor. He...

                  Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14ADA05 NVME keeps randomly disconnecting
                  by pcwhiz24
                  This issue has me stumped! I have this Lenovo IdeaPad and the SSD (NVME) keeps on randomly disconnecting. It'll stop being detected in BIOS randomly and when I turn it off and back on sometimes it'll detect again and boot up just fine...only to crash after a few minutes and either boot again or stop being detected.

                  Things I tried so far:

                  - Reset the CMOS by removing battery, held power buttons 60 seconds, all that jazz.
                  - BIOS is fully updated (had to use CHA341 because I bricked it the first time trying to update it)
                  - Tried multiple working NVME drives...

                  Bad mains power causing TV malfunctions?
                  by chopduel
                  Hi,
                  I've been living in the same apartment for about 5 years now, and moved into it with my old Samsung plasma TV (PS51F5500).
                  Ever since we've moved in, we would sometimes see strange power-cycling behavior. For example:
                  • TV would randomly turn off then back on.
                  • TV would turn off and the LED light would blink for a while (over a minute sometimes) until eventually it went back to a regular off state and could be turned on
                  • Sometimes it would require disconnecting the mains cord from the TV, waiting several minutes, then putting it back in and turning the TV back on. This had limited
