    Lightning surge Panasonic TV help

    We had a storm last night and the tv was on. The power went out momentarily 2 or 3 times. No big deal. Today it seems the cable channels in the 50 range are more fuzzy than the others. Our other tv is perfectly clear. Is it possible that its an easy component fix or more likely a board replacement for the channels? I never knew that just some of the channels could be affected but that seems to be the case. Its a cable ready tv.
    Thanks

      Re: Lightning surge Panasonic TV help

      Thanks to all the help I got here the tv is working again...Seems the lightning messed up a filter from the cable company as the neighbor had them over yesterday. The guy climbed the pole and messed with it and now all is normal. The funny thing is that the other tv seemed unaffected by the problem so it must be a better tv. Weird.
      Thanks again,

          Panasonic TC-P55ST50 8 blinks then no blinks
          by Andre Gilbert
          Hello! yes I know there is already lots of information about this issue. I have a Panasonic TC-P55ST50 that originally displayed an 8-blink error code. Following the troubleshooting flowchart, I ended up replacing the SS board. However, even after replacing it, the issue persists. The TV turns on and stays on without displaying an image, and continuity is confirmed on all connectors. What am I missing here🤔?
          Ok Im a mechanical engineer ...but I thought I was able to follow a rather simple flowchart for electric troubleshooting 😂.

          Panasonic TH-50PX80 killed by lightning strike, help me save her!
          by SluggerB
          Yes it's a 17 year old Panasonic plasma!

          I was watching TV when there was a huge lighting strike nearby my house that shook the house. When that happened, the picture on the TV froze and the TV wouldn't turn off except by pulling the power cable. Now if you plug in the TV, it seems to turn on (it makes the turn on "clikcs" it always does, the red power light comes on but there is no picture, although I can see the back light around the edges. And the TV doesn't respond to the power button on the remote to turn off, and doesn't respond to the manual power button on the front...

          Problem with PANASONIC CF53 laptop after changing BIOS settings
          by AquaMan Ua
          Hello. I am asking you for a hint on how to solve the problem with my touchbook Panasonic CF53-2 standart model. After setting up the BIOS, the laptop displays the wrong image until Windows loads. (More precisely, it displays, but distorted, instead of the Panasonic image immediately after turning it on, it displays what is in photo #1 in the attached file) Then the image appears when Windows starts loading and then there are no problems with the screen until the reboot. If you enter the BIOS, just a black screen. If you connect an external screen, the image on it is the same as on the built-in...

          Harmon Kardon AVR340 no sound on 4 channels
          by r2digital
          Hello, i had this amp sitting in the closet knowing that none of the channels were working. After taking it all apart i found 4 bulging main filter caps so i went ahead and replaced those with low ESR kmet caps. However after doing this it only restored sound to Surround L, Surround R, and Center channel. The main speaker fuse on the transformer F905/F906 keeps blowing so i decided to remove all of the transistor's on those 4 channels and measure them. All transistors appear to be in good working order(turned receiver on with none of them installed and fuse still blows). Checked dual emitter resistors...

          Advice needed-Technika 32-207 works but sticks on channel,won’t change channels ok
          by rustinjust
          My tv will work for a while and change channels with the remote as it should but then it will stick on one channel only and work ok but it won't change channels. I have tried unplugging it for hours and whilst unplugged pressing the power button on the tv to reset it.

          The volume button on the remote still works but it just won't change channels once it decides to stick on one channel

          It has built in basic freeview tv here in the uk, I've tried doing an automatic search to reset the tv but nothing works.

          I have to turn the tv off and then on again with...
