Re: 14 blinks TC-P50ST30
My apologies for the AT&T reference, as it's country-specific. AT&T provides service for my TV (IPTV), Internet, and telephone. I attached a picture of the network box that's on the back of my house. It has a cable connecting it to the breaker box. The signal comes in from the network box through two bonded-pair copper wires, into a gateway (modem/router combo), out a coax cable, into a set top box next to the TV, and then into the TV via an HDMI cable.
I figured it was probably a coincidence that the TV went out at the same time the tech was here, but I had to wonder.
ModuslinkPTS may have revised their prices after you inquired. I'm seeing the same price ($85.58) for both models (TNPA5349AB and TNPA5349AD).
The Panasonic repair tech training manual doesn't include instructions for replacing boards, and I haven't removed the back cover on my TV. Does removing the SN board only involve removing screws and disconnecting cables, or is soldering required?
Last night, I read this entire thread. If I remember correctly, isolating the problem to the SN board required using a multimeter, because the blink codes can indicate that other boards (A board or P board) are the problem
, when they actually aren't. I have a cheap multimeter, which I've never used. I can read up and learn how to use it. Do you think it will be sufficient to correctly identify the problem?
Thank you for your advice!
