So I bought another $10.00 42in Plasma again. This is a Tatung P42HSMT. I was told that the set was fine & then 1 day it was turned on and it shut off after 10 sec. (Protection Mode I think) Well I got it home and pulled the back off of it and powered it on. Immediately the PSU's Led8002 & Led8001 turns off and then Led8004 turns on red and the TV turns off and cannot be turned back on until I unplug it and reconnect. I have done some research trying to find a manual but it appears that the PSU (which is Samsung LJ44-00068a Rev.02) is fairly common & found in various Samsungs (Duh!), Phillips, Magnavox, Sanyo, Norcent & apparentley Tatung Plasmas.
So far what I have done is unplug the Y-sus & Z-sus to see if the psu still shuts its self off because of those boards and it does the same thing (red led) plugged in or not. I cannot find any obvious damaged caps or blown/fried components on any of the boards. I have checked all of the bus like fuses and they are fine also.
I would really love to fix this thing for I have many PSU boards to get parts from and I have two other (Sony KDE-42xs955 that needs a YSUS & a Vizio vw46L that needs a tcon) large panel tvs that im into around 10.00 each, so I would really love to get this thing working.
PS. I have a service manual for Phillips 42MF230A which supposedly shares the same PSU as this tatung, only prob is the component labeling on this LJ44 does not match the exact labeling on the manual & I am already having a tough time trying to read the thing and find the areas its pointing out the diagnose.
Please help me Budd.M or anyone as good as him.
