Picked this up yesterday had 7 blink code, now i have the back off pulled the plugs from Sc and SS to try to find the fault, now with all plugs back in except Sc 20 i get a flashing green to a standing green light and all the fans are running. so is this the same fault that has come up before with the transistors on this board or something else.

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
I have the 7 blink problem on my plasma tv. I have isolated the problem to the su board. With the su disconnected from the sc board the tv stays on and the display works on the bottom half of the screen. I checked the ribbons' from the display to ground to see if the panel is shorted and all ribbons are open. The sc board was checked on another tv and it is OK. Do you think I should replace both the su and sd boards or will the su fix the problem? Is there any way of testing the su board out of the tv? I would not like to ruin a new board if something else is wrong. Tried a supposed to be good SU card and still 7 blinks. Panasonic TH-42PZ77U.Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
Hi, I'm new to all this so any help would be appreciated please. I've got an 8yr old TH-42PZ70BA. It was repaired under warranty in it's 1st year due to the 7 blinks. Same problem again. Is it the 5N2307 fet? I used a digital meter and got the following readings:
Q641- 215
Q642- 222
Q643- 215
Q644- 208
Q645- 150
Q646- 215
Q695- 1058
Q696- 1047
Q648- 823
Q649- 818
Q651- 812
Q652- 819
Q653- 817
Q654- 829
I'm suspecting Q645 is faulty and needs replacing. I'd be grateful for any advice please. Also any reputable sellers for the part in UK please. Thanks!!Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
Hi You can see if it is the SC shorted by removing the SC20 plug and powering set on, the fans should run with a green led showing on the front, testing the SC should be done with the board removed you need to lift one leg of each mosfet ,then test with meter set to low ohms (200) test between the tab (north) and each leg+ across legs, any showing low ohms(short) should be replaced, mosfets 5N2307 you can pickup from eBay for under £2.00 Hope this is of help FlockoComment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
Thanks for your reply! Tried pulling out SC20 connector, not budging! I'm afraid that I will snap something. To remove the SC board do I have to remove SU and SD boards completely together with the flexible cables on the side? That's what it says in the manual. To remove the SD board do I have to remove the AV unit which lies above it? Also when checking the FETs (once SC board removed) by "lifting one leg" does this involve desoldering one leg on each of 14 FETs to check for shorts.Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
the SC20 plug needs to be pinched to lift its tab, then it will release,take care when removing the white plug from the buffers as this can get damaged, the buffers can remain in place for now just remove the screws holding the SC board then it can be removed from the buffer sockets by pulling apart,and yes you will need to lift one leg of each mosfet to test, read though the link in post 4 above for more infoComment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
Screws off, 2 white connectors off by prising towards you. Now tried prising the SC board from the buffer boards but not enough room due to the silver cylindrical rollers which take the wall bracket screws inhibiting further movement. Just need to get the 4 black connectors on SC board to come away from the buffers. Any tips before I start removing the AV and the SU and SD boards!Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
Yes. Moved the SC20 connector away with needle nosed pliers. Powered TV up. Fans working and LED remained on green light..no blinking reds! It's just the AV unit in the way of the SD connectors. I hoping it's not too much hassle removing the AV unit..will consult the engineers manual.Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
An update. Lifted a leg off each FET and it confirmed the faulty one was Q645 (as in post 9) above. Is it necessary to lift a leg off the FETs? I originally placed the negative lead on the S and postive lead marked G on the board. Removing the faulty FET took a lot of heat using a gas soldering iron directly as a mini blow torch. Also soldering the new FET was difficult due to the solder drying up quickly on the base of the FET....but eventually managed it! TV is now back up and running!!! Thanks guys.
In future any tips regarding the removing and soldering the FET? Solder air guns any good?? Solder paste maybe instead of solder wire?Comment

Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ70BA 7 blink code
For this type of work I use an old chisel tip 60w soldering iron,lift the legs first,then by running new solder on the tab wait for the component to come free and lift off, tin the back of the new part and use flux on the pad, heat tab until you see solder run out from under the component.Glad you were able to get your set up and running and happy to helpComment

by clooI 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...01-06-2025, 06:02 AM -
by rmacintoshI aquired this Panasonic 60" plasma around the time my first child was born. It was meant to be a project tv, hoping to fix it chipping away at the repair in my free time. Well that was 2 years ago and i'm really just getting around to making a sincere effort to see if I can ressurect this beast.
The symptoms of the tv ar as follows:- Plug AC in to back of TV
- After about 2 seconds the relay on the P-sub board will click on and then a fraction of a second later it clicks back off
- The 3 blink code is given by the power LED
- If the TV is unplugged and then

My beloved Panasonic TC-P42ST30 has been stricken with the 14 blink code.
I've spent many hours reading through forums, watching YouTube videos and reading the Panasonic plasma troubleshooting guide. But I'm a novice at this, and still need some help to cross the finish line.
I understand the Panasonic troubleshooting guide suggests that the 14 blink code usually means there's a problem with either P-board or A-board. However, I also learned the problem frequently rests with the SN-board.
Using my multi-meter, I was able to confirm the P-11 pin on the... -
by orbit417Hi All,
Thank you in advance for your advice.
I have a Panasonic Plasma tc-p55vt50 that's about 9 years old and has just recently stopped working :-(
I noticed that when I turn the tv on I hear a click then screen comes on for like half a second then shuts off and the led blinks 6 times.
I did some googling and found several video's on trouble shooting all sorts of blink codes. I finally came across one that showed 6 blink error code but for a different model. It recommended disconnecting the SC board to determine if it was the A board or power... -
