    The 3.1v is there till it clicked the second time then it goes to 0v

        Re: panasonic tx42-p42x20b

        I think I'll try find a a-board or a broke screen on but that model is really hard to find is there any other model with the same a board?

          You may find that the same A board is used across the range for all the different sized X20B models but the firmware will be different for each size.

          It is possible to do a EEPROM swap from your board to another tomake it a 42" board but we'd have to assume they are good still.

          I've done it to convert from a New Zealand X20Z to an Aussie X20A. NZ and Aust have different frequency standards. It worked but except I had image issues which I donot know if they are A board related or not. The TV was a mess as it had bad SS,SN,C & A which i component level repaired so part of that could be my doing.

          For yours it may only be 1 eeprom to swap.

          I don't quite understand why the US boards i listed would not suit? For me a board with the same appearance, same PCB number and the same revision suffix should in fact be an identical part?

          It'd be nice to continue to fault find the A and see if it is possible to nut it out down to a component. I'm not sure i can do that for you, not something I've gone too deep into before.

          I'd be curious to see what those sub voltages measure.

              I'm actually starting to think the TX-P42X20B is not a US model at all but somehow SJ has the parts. I only get UK hits for it and the US Panasonic site does not recognise that model.

              The antenna socket does not even look like a typical US connection. This is only a guess but maybe they were in transit in the US and damaged there so that's where they were written off.

              Maybe they got the opportunity to get them cheap. They ship worldwide so why not . I was chatting online a while back and the guy suggested SJ was considering setting up in the UK too. But that's hearsay.


              It might be worth asking the question if they suit UK but If it's the price you don't like I can understand that with freight .

                  Well you have the schematics etc so why not. You could resistance check those sub voltage lines and see if shorted. You have a clue that the SD slot was related to it shutting down whether that be 100% true or not but that may point back along the 3.3V which that IC I mentioned also regulates the 5V which i reckon it will be the voltage that's wrong if I was to have a guess.

                  If the 5V is shorted, determining which device would be hard as there will be several things all running off the 5V. may even be something simple like a fusible link on the board being open. That's where the schematic might help.

                    Open the manual in PDF, look at P61, identify the SUB voltages, there are points labelled as TPxxxx. They're test points but you could follow the cct and pick any point or item the SUB5V feeds for example. use the search function.

                    e.g. if you put TP5603 in the search it will take you to P82 and shows it on the A board on the foil side or underside which is a pain as you don't want the board flopping around unbolted possibly damaging ribbon cables or shorting on the chassis.

                    So search sub5V and see where it feeds on the board.

                    Either side of L5605 on topside for 5v

                    L5604 for 3.3V

                    Search sub9v,sub5v.

                    I have to get a few more winks of sleep, I woke up and jumped on here for a bit.

                    have fun.

                      I've never tried checking these voltages myself but I suspect once the 10 blinks starts the A board will stop trying to generate them so thye may only be present on startup meaning you'll have to keep cycling the TV on for each test point.

                      Hopefully if anyone else out there knows more about the A board they'll chip in with some info too.

                        Well i had 10 blinks problem on my TX-42PY85 and it turned out that was the a board problem. It was shorted one of sub voltages, i think it was 3.3v but not sure ), shorted ceramic capacitor caused that. 15v read ok on p6 connector but it wasn't even going to the dc dc converters because due to short the 5 amps fuse blew .
                        So, listen to the Panasonic master aka tw2005 and look for shorts on that sub voltages

                                      A20 feeds the SN board, only voltages there are 5V & 15V.I suspect 15V won't be generated unless those sub voltages are produced first and it gets past SOS10. The 5V should be there though, if not it just brings us back to what we already suspect. Problem with the SUB 3.3/5V.

                                      Did you locate those inductors? there's probably easier points . Measure resistance to ground for both of those see if either are really low.

                                          Took me a little while to digest this but did you mean CN0102 pin 1?

                                          Should be STDBY 5V there. 3.3V is low for 5V

                                          CN0101 is the unpopulated 20 pin pad above it.

                                          You already reported 4.8V for STB5V at pin 1 of P7, same voltage should be at pin 1 CN0102.

                                            I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                            Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                            I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                            The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                            With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                            Assuming...

                                            Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
                                            Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

                                            Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock

                                            I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

                                            This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

                                            After all of...

                                            Panasonic TC-P54VT25 No image. A or D board?

                                            I have a Panasonic TC-P54VT25 that will power on and prime the display but there is no image at all.

                                            The panel is primed as there is a slight glow from the entire panel. This means the problem should be logic related. The service manual also confirms this and recommends replacing the A or the D board.

                                            I have tried to get the TV to display the test sequence but I have been unable to and I don't even know if this TV has a test sequence or not. I tried following tom66's instructions in post #3 on this thread https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=26790. There was...

                                            Hi everyone!
                                            I happened several times, in the search for help from the web, to consult this very interesting forum.
                                            So I decided to sign up and I intend to participate actively by making available my knowledge and experience on the subject, I'm a new user but at the same time I'm old in the sense that I have 4 decades of experience in repairing and designing electronics but above all I'm a great passionate about the subject.

                                            Having said that I come to the gist of my post on the forum as the title suggests.
                                            For my passion for technology I'm now collecting several...
