LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
I am a newbee to repairing plasma tv's.I have an Lg 50PG20-UA that i have been working on. When I first got it and removed the back noticed that a few caps were bad.I pulled the power supply and replaced the bad caps, 5amp and 10amp fuses. The last person to do any work on this set just soldered new fuses on top of the blown ones,so I replaced them the correct way. I also noticed that they had replaced a few other caps also. I just hope they replaced them with the correct sizes. After replacing the PS I plugged it in and powered it on. It turned on for a few seconds then shut down and wouldn't power up again. I pulled the PS again and found that the 10amp fuse had blown and 2 mosfets had shorted out. Ordered more from Digi-Key. When I recieved them, I put the PS back in and it did the same thing again. I ordered extras,so I replaced the shorted mosfets and blown fuse. This time I unpluged the Ysus board and the Zsus board. It powered up and stayed on. I checked all the power readings and they were right on the money. I hooked up the Ysus board and powered it back up leaving the Zsus board unhooked. It powered up and stayed on. I then hooked up the Zsus board and powered it back on again and it blew the mosfets and fuse again. I purchased a replacement Zsus board on Ebay thinking that my board was bad. When it arrived I put it in and powered it on. Again it blew the mosfets and 10amp fuse. Getting a little flustrated at this point!! Now I'm down to my last set of mosfets and fuses. I have checked both boards for shorts to ground and haven't found any. I put everything back together and unhooked the Ysus board just leaving the Zsus board hooked up with my fingers crossed. It powered up and stayed on. So now I can hook up either board alone and it powers up and stays on just fine, but not both boards. What would cause this set to blow the mosfets and fuse when both boards are hooked up?I hope I have explained everything OK.

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
Have a look at this, may help. I'm thinking it's not going full power until both boards are hooked up and that's when it blows. Have you checked that Vs and Va are there when either board is connected and it does not blow?
There's a PSU standalone test and hoping it's the same boards you have.Last edited by tw2005; 02-21-2013, 11:34 PM.Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
Thanks for the responce tw2005!! I have measured the voltages with one board or the other installed as well as without any boards installed. The voltages are the same no mater which way I try it. They are; Va 65,Vs 193 and 5V. I've been afraid to try both boards again,as I'm down to my last mosfets. The attachment you sent will no doubt help as far as troubleshooting goes. I will read it and try some of the tests. It appears to draw more power than the power supply can handle when both boards are hooked up. I just have to figure out what is causing both boards to draw too much power.Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
I tried a few of the tests for the Ysus board and the Zsus board,as far as voltages. I just had the Zsus board hooked up and the bias voltage was 89v and the label says 100v. I ajusted it up to 100v. I then diconected the Zsus board and conected the Ysus board. The Vy voltage was 197v and label says 195v,so I ajusted it to 195v. The Vsc voltage was what the label says it should be. Do you think that little amount of difference would make it blow the mosfets and fuse? I'll keep testing and reading.Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
What is the panel's Vs rating? Is that in spec?
Such small changes would only cause picture issues, not mosfet damage.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
The sticker on the back of the tv say Vs is 193v,and that is what I read on the Vs leads. All the voltages are what the sticker says they should be. Thanks for your responce!!Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
If it is the Mains fuse that keeps blowing you should try connecting a 120v 60w filament
bulb instead.Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
My mistake!! I stated that the 10amp fuse was blowing,but it's the 5amp fuse that keeps blowing.My fluke meter is capable of reading amperage, so I tried reading the amperage when one board was hooked up and then the other board. The highest reading I could get was 1.5 amps. When you add the 2 boards toghether it doesn't even use 4 amps, so why is it blowing a 5 amp fuse? Without a wiring schematic it's hard to say what all is running off that 5 amp fuse. Would anybody know where I could get a copy of the wiring schematic for this power supply? There are 2 different number on the board; EAY41360901 & YBIK501705.Comment

Re: LG 50PG20-Ua blows mosfets and fuse
Schematics may be hard to find for this power board. If could you post clear, detailed pictures of the front and back of the power board and indicate which parts you replaced, it would make it easier for forum members to help you.Comment

Hi, I'll start by saying that I'm not an expert and I've reached a point where I don't know what to try/do anymore...
Starting from the beginning: I opened this subwoofer for the first time with a very strong smell of burnt electrical components, I realize that on the amplifier board there is a hole between V+ OUT and GND about the size of a finger, the damaged components were the shorted mosfets, two damaged zener diodes and two capacitors. I bought everything, I fixed the hole by cutting the pcb and putting a piece of a perforated board.
I had no problems connecting mosfets and capacitors,...08-27-2024, 12:46 PM -
Hello, I disassembled this dead camera, and found this WTF… Two fuses soldered one above the other !
I was pretty sure nobody touched it before, but that can't be from factory. There is flux, and capacitor is probably missing.
The other weird thing : the fuses are « G » fuse : (0.75A – 8V), seems very low. The original fuse should be « O » : (32V 2,5A).
There is « O » mark beside. All fuses have the same mark letter on main board. So, I can deduce it's a « O » fuse.
And this correspond to the issus I saw : when I plug the battery, I measure the voltage dropping... -
I could have sworn I posted about this before, but I can't seem to find the post..
To whit..
I have a 60LN5400 that came in.. Backlights work fine.. No display..
Traced the problem to the TCON board.. Blown fuse..
Replaced the fuse.. Blows again.. Replaced the fuse again... This time it fries the marked part on the Main Video board...
Got a new Main Video Board.. Replaced the fuse on the TCON..
The fuse is fine and the backlights come on fine if I don't have the cellophane connectors from the TCON to the... -
Hi all,
Need some advice to troubleshoot this TV.
PSU blow the main fuse F100, 3.15A.
I replace the fuse with another 3A (but not ceramic) and blows it again after few seconds when i plugged in to the wall, with nothing connected to PSU, just the power cord.
I checked with DMM for dead sorts but didn't found any.
Checked bridge rectifier and seems ok.
Also check main filter cap with transistor / cap / esr tester (the usual cheap transistor testers from ebay) and found ok.
PSU p/n is EAX64405901 (1.6)... -
Hi guys,
I'm inexperienced with electronics repairs, I've done a little bit of soldering caps and whatnot, but i have a blown fuse on this mimaki printer I got which I have bought a replacement for.
How do I remove this type of fuse (see picture)...it kinda looks like it would pull out of that bracket but it didn't come at first pull and I didn't want to brute force it incase it's soldered on there like most of the rest of the components.
Anybody know how to remove this type of fuse?
(The fuse is toward the bottom of the image labeled F2)...
