    Free Panasonic Plasma

    My buddy was tired of this tv shutting off after 5mins
    code is 13
    A board?
    Model is Panasonic TC-P50G10
    looked online for this board $170 with trade in of the bad board?
    Has anyone seen this problem? Or should I be looking somewhere else?
    My buddy had a power spike in the house during a thunder storm, lost a lot of stuff along with this tv
    So I took it home hoping I could save it?
    I have some electronic background mainly in cars. Want to learn hoping I can fix this thing myself.
    Thanks for any help!
    Love the site

    13 blinks is "A" board error, you can try unplugging the cord to the sd card reader as some have had it give 13 blink error as well. I found one on ebay for 140, pretty pricey for a single board but it did have an "or Best Offer" you could try to get it for less. Or if your really adventurous you can try a component level repair.

        There are many individual components on each board, on that A board there are hundreds. Usually only a few fail, the main problem is locating which ones have failed and getting the replacements installed without fouling up the rest of the circuit. You might get lucky and have one of the regulators or other large components fail but if this is your first go round with this type of thing you would be better off with a board swap.

          The problem is going to be heat related - if you start heating up parts you can likely find the cause quickly - freeze spray may get them going again.
          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.

            Update: Got to talking to my buddy more about this problem, He tells me that this problem happened 2 years ago and he replaced the A-board and it fixed it. Then he hands me the original A-board that came with the tv. So since it fixed the first time I will probably do it. I looked at the board it looks ok but im sure things need to be tested?
