    Panasonic TH-42PX80U

    I have a TH-42PX80U, it shows no picture, no sound and does not respond to the remote control. I confirmed the remote is outputting a signal by looking at it thru the camera on my phone. When I plug in the set, I hear a triple click from the relays and can see the red light from the toslink port. When the power button is pressed the panel comes on, I'm guessing the back light works. I've taken the back off, both the SS and SC have green leds that illuminate. Last night I unplugged both the power and control wires for the SS board. When I did this the tv would no longer turn on. Does this mean the SS board is bad? I didn't try the SC board.

    Thanks

    Is the Power LED on the front flashing any error code? You must be very careful on Panasonic Plasma sets. They are extremely susceptible to further damage if you disconnect the wrong things then power it on while troubleshooting.

      It is on, no error code. It will stay on constant. In fact I have to hold the power button down to turn the unit off. Then it starts a power cycle. Finally I have to remove the power cord from the back of the unit.

        Check the voltages coming out from the power supply. Also check the fuses on the A and D boards (A may not have one).

        Blindly, it sounds like a main board (A) prob.

          I'll check that, this model only has the one input board.

          Thanks for the help

            Pioneer VSX-522-K remote control not working???
            by tmhobadcap
            I have this receiver for at least 10 years. Usually, we just use the remote for turning on/off and adjusting the volume. Recently, the remote control started not able to turn the receiver on. Later, the volume also could not be adjusted by the remote control.

            At first, I thought that it was the usual problem which can be fixed by cleaning the contacts on the switches and the pcb. I opened the remote and clean it with alcohol. The remote did work again after that. But after one day, it did not work again. I opened it again and clean with alcohol and contact cleaner. Again it worked...

            Panasonic tx-40cx400b not responding to remote control
            by Chrissygizmo
            Hi all

            I've just repaired the backlights on this tv. I didn't get a remote with it so I'm using a universal one. The tv works properly via the buttons on the back but the only remote command it registers is the power off. It will power on if I try immediately after switching off, if I leave it until the standby light stops blinking then it won't turn on again from the remote.
            I don't think the remote is at fault as I've got other remotes that do exactly the same thing.
            Any help would be really appreciated....

            Thank you...

            Old Privileg 5.1 speakers remote control question
            by piipo
            Hi, I have an old Privileg brand 5.1 speakers. I have lost the remote control. I have an universal Harmony remote but there is no Privileg brand in it's software to add. Does anybody have an idea what alternative brand for a remote can I try instead? I'm attaching an image of what the speakers looks like. The image shows 2 main speakers, they are 5 + 1 in total. Thank you very much

            Schematic for Denon Remote Control RC1156
            by hemant_2222
            Hello Everyone,

            Hope everyone is enjoying their repairs at hand!.

            I am looking forward to get the schematic of Denon remote control RC1156. Actually long time no use of the remote leaked the battery thereby corroding few parts as well as the tracks.

            I was able to join few of them but the remote is still not working, so i am looking forward for your help, in case anyone understand the schematic or the remote circuit diagram and could me assist me in repairing it.

            Please refer to the attached picture, i think the voltage divider is missing...

            hitachi 75hl16t64u - not responding to remote control
            by dfear
            I have a hitachi 75hl16t64u tv in for repair and it is driving me crazy.
            It came in for a power issue which I have finally resolved by replacing the power supply.

            The current issue is that the TV does not respond to the remote control. I have replaced the IR sensor board with a used one but the fault persists.

            Anyone have a clue how to fix TV?

            FYI: I have checked the remote work s by pointing it at my camera on my phone....
