    Magnavox 42mf230a/37

    it just stopped working last week...

    no picture no sound

    led is red, push power button on remote or tv and led turns blue... have to unplug to turn off

    checked the y-sus and buffers for short both passed as non-short

    found a bulging cap on the y-sus and replaced it (no change)

    started checking voltages today...

    1. Check PowerSTB5V(U516 3PIN)
    Voltage: 5V (shows 4.95v)

    2. Check the REL-SW state of power IO
    interface,
    High Voltage:Turn on
    Low Voltage:Standby
    Test Point: C pole of Q5
    High Voltage:5V(4.2---5.3V)
    Low Voltage:0V

    I get 0 volts, so i am not coming out of standby

    what should i check next, this is my first plasma project...

    thanks,
    chris

    found another bulging cap on the main power supply

    also discovered fuse f5004 is blown on the y-sus

      components replaced...

      no apparent power on secondary side of main power board...

      what now?

            I also have a 42inch Magnavox plasma I picked up for twenty dollars. It looks brand new inside and out but no power.I replaced the power board and another smaller power board but it just does nothing like it isn't even plugged in. There is power to the inlet, I know. All fuses check okay. but no power, no indicator light, nothing, Can anyone help?

              Is the model of your TV the same? Regardless, it would be best to create a new thread.

                Hi is any one can help me on getting the Schematics for Magnavox MDR515H/F7 And Magnavox MDR537H/F7 PDF file thank you I really appreciate it. Just need to change some component on
                the main board and the power supply board. I looked all over for the internet and I cannot find the Schematics sheet for both of them. I don't know where else to look I hope someone can help me...

                Is there any high current pouch battery that are size 60mmX80mm maximum thickness 21mm for a battery operated tab welder
                by sam_sam_sam
                I have a battery operated tab welder and the battery does not have enough current for the battery tab welder because after about 30 welded it does not have the same current output it voltage has gone down by at least 0.500 volts or maybe a more than that

                I can fit 21700 battery cells in the enclosure it is very tight fit for four of them that are 35 amp high current capacity 35X4=140 high current output this should work a lot better than what is installed right now

                I tested the battery cells there are installed right now and they are testing good with no issues that I...

                Extreme High Current & Low Voltage Short Killer ??
                by DynaxSC
                Hi Folks

                I'm looking for a extreme high current short killer solution for a reasonable cost.

                I have an LGA1700 motherboard (ASUS PRIME Z790-P WiFi) where I exchanged the LGA socket already 3 times, and every time after the socket exchange I get a short of power supply lines VCORE (V variable) and VCCIN_AUX (1.8V).
                After taking off the socket, the shorts dissappear again.
                The soldermask on the socket is already partially demaged from the heat, so I have reconstructed the soldermask by manually painting the missing soldermask parts with a very small top of a...

                high voltage high resistance marking resistor

                Is there any reason why high voltage high resistance resistor use weird marking and value on it? Standard nomenclature, EIA value not used?...

                LG 42PC3 buffer output doesn't follow YSUS
                by legg
                LG42PC3D -UD originally with green lamp but no display or audio.
                Owner says was working, then went 'pop'.
                All 5V caps bulging. replaced.
                All PSU output voltages within spec but -Vy is low on YSUS.
                One of three parallel fets between SUS_OUT and SUS_DN is zenering,
                eventually shorts DG. Replaced all 3 - -Vy now OK.

                Y scan buffer test point does not follow YSUS output below -50V

                Note: This unit seems to expect YSUS output to park at -Vy in between
                drive signal pattern periods. A replacement drive signal board confirms this....
