Should I replace both the capacitors on both the MC201 and MC301?

Should I replace both the capacitors on both the MC201 and MC301?

Might as well of course can't be sure this will fix it but I have had the 2 blinker and after reflowing the cap it worked for a month then quit, did the caps and all good. Never had any freeze spray so it was a punt but the fact it was intermittent then working then quit I was confident. Could be the IC but ry the cap first. i bought a kit and never used the IC.

Hello. I have a Panasonic TH-50PZ80U as well. 4 weeks ago I had no video for about 30 minutes, but then, everything started to work fine again.

Today I am watching a show on the unit and I loose the image. The unit is still powered on and primed. Remote control access all works including power, vol, menus, etc...

I was using HDMI input but tried component and composite, with same result. I tried Panasonic plasma D board test Tom had posted but no pattern appeared.

Any ideas for next steps if D board test fails? Could I have a loose LVDS Cable?

Thanks.
