    Panasonic 50" Plasma

    Hi...I just joined the forum and it looks like alot of info is available here.I have a background in servicing electronics and still like to tinker abit.It was many years ago but now it seems you replace boards instead of individual components.I have a TC-P50U2 that is just off the one year warranty.It's not my own but they already purchased another and I thought I would give it a go.

    Tv works fine for about 10 minutes and then lines start appearing on the bottom and eventually there are full blocks of red and cyan.Also a single red line across the middle.
    Thanks for any advice.

    i would suggest trying the connectors along the lower edge of the panel if it has lower buffers, never seen a buffer that didnt make halfway of the screen though, could be a possible bad screen issue. unsure on this one, never seen this exact thing before. also i would check va and vs voltages to be on the sure side.

      just found the manual, the boards across the bottom are c1,c2 and c3. it could be the line supplying them too. you can get the ser manual here.

          Panasonic plasma TX-P42ST50 - 6 blinks
          by jm1234
          Hi,
          anyone able to provide the service manual for old plasma Panasonic TX-P42ST50E?
          It turns off almost immediately (0~5 seconds after pressing the on/off button) and starts flashing the red diode 6 times.
          I disconnected the left-hand side board (SC?, both the ribbon cable and the power cable to it) and also another ribbon going to bottom left board. Then the led signal is 8 flashes. According to service guide to another Panasonic plasma it would mean the left-hand side board is faulty. But I'm not sure it 100% applies to my model.
          I checked that board for any obvious faults...

          Panasonic Plasma main board repair (ST30 GT30 VT30 ST50 GT50 VT50),LED with 3 blincks
          by stecos
          Hi everyone!
          I happened several times, in the search for help from the web, to consult this very interesting forum.
          So I decided to sign up and I intend to participate actively by making available my knowledge and experience on the subject, I'm a new user but at the same time I'm old in the sense that I have 4 decades of experience in repairing and designing electronics but above all I'm a great passionate about the subject.

          Having said that I come to the gist of my post on the forum as the title suggests.
          For my passion for technology I'm now collecting several...

          Panasonic ZT60 plasma tv with strange behavior and 8 blink code
          by cloo
          I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
          It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.


          So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
          After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...

          Panasonic Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
          by Alicat
          Hello,

          Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

          Model number is TH-50PZ85U

          Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

          Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

          I also hear a few clicks.

          I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

          Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...

          Panasonic P42S30 Plasma - Pink sparkles
          by Lintesir
          My parents' Panasonic P42S30 died recently, and they asked me to have a look at it. I was able to identify the SN-board as the culprit, as it was shorted. After removing Q401, Q402, Q421 and Q422 the short was gone, so I replaced these components and that got the TV working again. However, when testing the tv a bit, I noticed quite bad pinkish sparkles on some colors. For instance the greyish bar on this forum seems to trigger it quite badly. I made a fullscreen test picture with only that color, with the below result.

          There is about a 5cm high region at the top without any sparkles,...
