    Pansonic plasma TV diagnosis & repair

    I am helping a friend fix his Panasonic TH-42PV8AZ plasma tv. I have basic electronic knowledge but have a multimeter, soldering iron, heat gun etc.

    Problem Symptoms:
    When the TV is turned on it flashes the red light 12 times repetitively.

    According to panasonic blick codes this suggests:
    Sound SOS H Board

    I've done some research which suggests it could be anything from:
    A short to ground
    bad speakers
    Bad logic board (TNPH0713)
    Bad power board (LSEP1260 OR LSJB1260)


    I've tried looking for physical signs of burnt components / bad capacitors,
    checked fuses / diodes / connectors, looking for a pinout for the power board to test outputs however unable to find one.

    Can anyone please offer some help with diagnosing which board/component is at fault so that I can either order a replacement part or possibly fix it? or provide pinouts diagram etc for the power board etc so i can test these.

    Thanks!!!

        Sound SOS, checkpoints are P and A boards.

        "12 Blinks SOS: On the A board, transistor Q2301 monitors the Sound 15V line and the operation of the audio power amplifier IC2301. If the audio output circuit, IC2301, or the 15V lines develops a short to ground, transistor Q2301 goes into conduction and applies a high to pin 70 of the MPU, IC1100, triggering a SOS condition. The power LED blinks 12 times.
        A short circuit in the sound P15V normally shuts the TV down and the power LED blinks 2 times. It can also cause the TV to shutdown and make the power LED blink 12 times."

          Thanks, appreciate it. I will study the service manual attempt to diagnose which... Any further help would be great, though i'm guessing to test 15v line and ic2301, and if both ok assume audio output circuit and replace A board?

              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...

              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

              LG OLED77G1PUA - No Video / Audio after a TCON Board change and Software Update
              by Hakuu
              Hi There,

              This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.

              After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

              More Details

              TV Model - LG OLED77G1PUA

              Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt...

              Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
              by jb_Bak
              Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

              Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
              Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
              CN6401
              Pin 01 NC
              Pin 02 NC
              Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
              Pin 04 "N/C"
              Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
              Pin 06 "GND": N/C
              Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

              Panasonic TC-P54VT25 No image. A or D board?
              by canadaboy25
              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...
