    Insignia 50" plasma, clicking and standby only

    I have an Insignia Model: NS-51P680A12
    Died while watching. Plug it in clicks, standby blinks then remains solid. I disconnected x-main from y, as they are chained, and pluged in and got sound and remote seems to work but no pic. Anyway I ordered a new x-main. Does this sound right? And there is a small board attached to bottom of x with 2 ribons going to panel. I cant find this board. What are the chances it's bad??
    Thanks

      That will be an extender board or X-buffer. usually there's nothing on them except maybe a cap so unlikely anything wrong with it.

          Ok. Thanks. Does it sound like an x-main problem?

              I know this has been a few years but was the x-main the problem?

                  Samsung UE49KS7000SXXH - fast clicking sound in standby mode
                  by B0r1s
                  PSU - BN44-00878A

                  Symptoms:

                  The TV turned itself off, and I haven't been able to turn it back on. The standby voltage was unstable and lower than it should be.
                  A weak clicking sound was coming from the transformer.

                  Video with clicking sound:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAduhjNtqCA

                  Progress:

                  After the transformer, I measured four Schottky diodes. DM862C and DM864C diodes readings were 003 in both directions. After detaching them from the circuit and measuring them, DM864C was the shorted one. These Schottky diodes are SB550.I...

                  LG 60PN6500 Plasma with standby, but won't power up.
                  by XCon
                  Symptom is TV has standby, I get relay click, voltage rails come up, but no screen and TV shuts down after 5 seconds. If I disconnect the Z from the y sus, the unit stays powered up and I can read voltages.

                  So I've read the two other threads on this TV and I can confirm the Y-Sus #EAX64789501 does not have diode or resister failure. Did not see any fractured solder joints on the transformer or anywhere else. All power boards have slight discoloration on the hot spots.

                  The board in question is EAX64789601, Z board. I have 208 going to Y Sus, 5v standby. Pin 5 on P174 connector...

                  Insignia NS-50F301NA24 No standby power, no +Va, Vm, +Vl etc.
                  by tbsmith
                  There is voltage on the bridge rectifier and main caps (163V). Fuses all check good. One of the smaller electrolytic caps (C9112 which is 50V, 100uF) looked bloated, it measured 60uF with one tester, and defective with another. I replaced it temporarily with same uF rating, higher voltage since I don't have the exact one. I also found that one of the switching mosfets (for lower voltage DC supply I think) was shorted. It is a 50R800CE which I didn't have, but had something with the same voltage and current rating and a similar Rds. None of these fixes helped. I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions...

                  Samsung 60" Plasma TV, Blinking Standby LED
                  by rju
                  A sports bar/restaurant with ~40 Samsung Plasma TVs. This is the 2nd TV that has a blinking standby LED. I'd like to learn how to repair these TVs because I'd guess that over time more and more of them will develop this symptom. My hope is to repair the bad PCB, however if that's not realistic then I'd replace the bad PCB.

                  Model PN60F5300AF, Type PN60F5300, Model Code PN60F5300AFXZA

                  Upon applying power, the red standby is steady. When I tap the power button, the standby LED immediately blinks twice, then it blinks once ~ every 4 secs. Also, Upon applying power, the...

                  2014 LG 60" Plasma shut down just clicking unless I disconnect 17V line to main CPU
                  by bffargo
                  LG 60PB66550 NOV 2014
                  PSU: EAY63168603
                  PCB: EAX65359531 2013.11.01 Rev:1.0

                  Main board: EAX65399305(1.0) 13.11.27 PU42A/PA42A/PD42A

                  Symptom:
                  While watching, just went black and started clicking relay every few seconds.

                  Initial diagnosis:
                  Removing JUST the main CPU/Input PCB from circuit stops the clicking. No problems with any other boards/drivers. (Removing all other boards and only putting Main back in is all it takes to start clicking again)

                  Deeper diagnosis:
                  Pulling pins #1/#2 (Blue/Grey) from the connector housing...
