Re: Panasonic TC-50PU54 8 blinks picture flashes then dead
I just completed the 8 blink repair on my TC-P50U50. I bought the repair kit (Panasonic TXNSS1SDUU (TNPA5623) SS Board Component Repair Kit) from Shop Jimmy. I have very little electrical and soldering experience but was able to complete it successfully. The kit comes with a diode, transitor, resistor and a chip. I tested my resistor and it still read 5.6ohms the same as the new one so I decided not to replace it cause it looked like a huge pain in the a**. I followed the panasonic tech bulletin that someone posted earlier but only replaced the diode and resistor (which are the easiest to replace) and the TV now works. I reccommend a 40W soldering iron with a pencil tip and a small flat blade tip as well as using a solder wick to clean up the old solder. Good luck to any completing this task in the future and join us in never purchasing from Panasonic again!
