    SONY KDE-42X5955 No Picture

    Make: SONY
    Model: KDE-42X5955
    Type: Plasma
    Manufacture Date: October 2004
    Service Manual Attached

    About 6 months ago, my plasma didn't come back on after a house power outage.

    I had to remove the AC plug and wait 5 min and then plug it in.
    The issue then escalated to where if you turned the TV off for longer than 10 or so minutes that it would not want to come back on until you kept removing the AC and putting it back, that's when I got nervous that something was on the way out.

    So, we put the TV in a power save mode at night where the TV was on, but screen in power save (blue screen off light), but you could still see a back-light.

    TV was in this mode for 4 months.

    We just lost power six days ago (off for a second) and now, the screen will not come on at all.

    Turn the TV on and it cycles then it goes into a 9 blinking standby (panel error).

    Opened the TV up, did a voltage check on everything (F, G1 and G2F) and the only issue i could find was G1 card, PRI_VCC was 0 volts. So, I replaced the G1 card.

    Now, when I tried to turn it on, it blinks green and then goes into 6 blink standby.

    Well, to my knowledge, that's a LowB Error.

    I looked around and did some resistance checks and found an issue with R6301.

    After replacing R6301 on the G2F board (10ohm resistor was reading 15k ohms), the TV now will start up, still no picture, power light blinks green at power on, which is a normal process, then its goes to a steady green and no longer will go into a standby blink mode.

    The system has no sound when on, but will have static sound from the speakers if i put the tv in maintenance mode (display+5+vol up+power) the Xsus board gets warm, have not opened up the Ysus side yet.

    What has changed is that I did voltage checks again and this time a big problem for me is that VSS on g2f is 0 volts, for all 3 of the vss on CN6013, it should be 85.3.

    if i remove power from G2F to Xsus, the system will go into standby blinking 9 times (panel error) i cannot get a steady reading from Pri_VCC on G1 or G2F it fluctuates from 0 to 20.5v

    5v standby on G1 and G2F is good and steady, 5.1v.

    Because I have no voltage reading on VSS (any of them) on G2F is the G2F the issue?

    Is it the Ysus or Y-buffers?

    I so want to resolve this but am struggling with isolating the issue(s), can someone please help?

    I am getting an error 500 on service manual upload.

    here is a direct link, hopefully putting this is on here is not a rule breaker.

          I tried to find a free Service Schematic to look up the error code but could not find one. Google the make and model and error code search. Normally most sets have voltages listed on the P.S. If the voltages are low or zero try disconnecting the cables from the P.S. to the other boards.

            My computer would not dowload the file. Too slow a connection due to Sat bad reception. I will look at it later tonight and see.

              I looked at the Schematic and did not see a beep code. I did see the G1 and and G2F power supply drawings. There is also a 2FU Relay Board that provides power too.

                  Sony KD-65XE8596 no standby light
                  by brithepi2k
                  Hi,

                  I’ve got a Sony KD-65XE8596 here that has no standby light coming on. I’ve tested the power board with the test meter, the TV needs 3.4 for the standby but only getting 2.4. Anything that I can change/check on the board to get it working? Pictures of the board are included.

                  cheers...

                  Samsung UE75TU7020k No picture, Standby blinks 2 times
                  by brithepi2k
                  My Samsung UE75TU7020k lights up fine when one of the ribbon cables are disconnected from the main board, lights stay on but not getting half a picture, I do the same with the other ribbon and put the other one in and lights stay on but not getting half a picture. The standby light flashes 2 times then reboots then it then tries to come back on again and just keeps looping until I take either one of the ribbon tables out (doesn’t matter which one I take out it stays lit when either one is out). I’ve tested the backlights but all working with none shorting out, I’ve replaced the main board...

                  Sony XBR-85X950G Gray horizontal lines and vertical picture shift diagnosis?
                  by noisykid
                  5.5 year old 85 inch Sony Bravia X950G started showing gray horizontal lines across the bottom of the screen and the picture shifts slightly vertically when it happens. The lines sometimes get bigger/smaller vertically and bounce back. See the video for the problem. It seems to be happening after it warms up after an hour or so. Happens regardless of source. Right now there's nothing but power cable connected and it's happening. We did hook up a new Nintendo Switch to our HDMI switching receiver today, and played for a while with no issues, but this problem didn't occur til a few hours later while...

                  Sony KD-75XF9005 grey Picture but Sound. TCON or panel?
                  by iglitare
                  Hi,

                  i want to repair a Sony KD-75XF9005 TV that initially only showed a grey picture.
                  Backlight seems to work, Sound (Setup menu after reset) works.
                  If i dissconnect the left FFC cable from TCON to panel i have half a screen on the right. If left cable is connected always only the grey screen.
                  Interchanged the cables, its always only the right side that is working. Always grey if left side is connected.
                  With my small knowledge i would think at least the cables are good.

                  Can this happen because of a bad tcon board?
                  Or is it always a bad/shorted...
