    60" LG Plasma - Sound but no Picture

    Model # PDP60R30110

    My 2 year old LG plasma has been showing sign of issues for the past month.
    There were "splotches" of shadow or color change, especially in uniform, bright areas.

    Now, the set will power up, click and play sound, but no picture, no On Screen menu etc.

    This is similar to another post on this forum:
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=33454

    I have followed some of the diagnostics suggested by tom66.
    Here are my preliminary findings:

    Green LED on Logic board flashes on power up, then quick flash, pause, quick flash etc.

    Checking voltage at P811 VS (right hand side) on the main Power Supply board (XP5 60R3), the voltage spiked quickly, then dropped to zero.
    With the connector P811 to the Z-SUS board unplugged, then Voltage on VS is +203.6 VDC
    VS on left hand connector P812 is +203.6 VDC

    Fuse on Z-SUS board board is blown.
    No obvious evidence of blown caps on any board.

    Before I start looking into replacing the Z-SUS board (suggestions for sourcing appreciated), are there any suggestions on checking the rest of the boards?

    **EDIT**

    Delved a little deeper and checked for cold solder joints on the coils of the Z-SUB board (As suggested in another post).
    All coils had cold solder cracked joints.
    Re-soldered coils and replaced fuse on board.

    Same problem.
    Power supply relay clicks, Z-SUS board whines loudly, relay clicks off and back into power save mode.



    Thanks

    Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
    by Tynan Dill
    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...

    HP Pavilion 15-eh Board DAG7HAMB8F0 - CPU throttling to 0.4GHz (PROCHOT_EXT) and black screen
    by m1ch43lzm
    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...

    TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
    by howardc64
    All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
    • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
    • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

    [SOLVED] M1 MacBook Pro clicking sound logic board 5V no power on A2338 820-02020
    by slimmy182
    Hello, I bought this Mac from a friend, he said that it simply stop working. The MacBook looks very clean but does not power on, stuck on 5v 0.42A, and sometimes display 5V and 0A (then 0.071A and again 0A).

    I opened it looking for some problem, it was not touched before for sure and the board is very clena, no spot of corrosion at all from what I can see. Voltage on multimeter of the board off the case it's the same, 5V 0.42A. But then I noticed this "clicking sound" come from the board ( I attached here the audio file).

    Looking on google I found this:...

    by mrtek
    Hi I am new to this kind of repairs but I want to learn..I have a Samsung UN65JS8500F. the TV used to work and I tried to fix darker areas in the middle only ( img 1,2,3).

Took the TV apart and put it back together. Now the tv shows no welcome screen and no sound is available thru the speakers. ..just a black screen..Backlight LED do turn on...also noticed a 5 blink code , not sure if that was there before. I can...
