      Needs to be grounded to the chassis.... Fan mounts work well I've found

        So what do you think of the pictures?

          If you see that, you haven't got a good ground.

            The 3rd picture is the default setting when scope is on. LAst pic is when i put the probe to pin 11/12/13

              Your right, pin 11/13 the line is horizontal but 1 square higher.
              On pin 12 its default horizontal line

                Is it on 5V/div or 1V/div?
                For 1V/div you may need to move the trace down a little using the V POS control.

                You should now check AC DET signal, MC501.

                  Its on 5v/div. I took a picture of the setting so you can see by yourself.
                  First picture of the scope setting is on 1V/div

                  Then you asked me to change it to 5 and thats the last picture. The horizontal line is going 1 square upwards. ( Means 5v right? )

                  How do i test AC DET signal? Where do i put the probe?

                    Re: Panasonic TH-42PZ85E --> Completely dead!

                    Again 2 pictures.

                    First is pin 12
                    Second is pin 11/13

                    If i change the time/div it just slows down the signal ( visually).
                    Vpos is set to the middle.

                      AC_DET is on pin 16 of MC501... look at the schematic...

                        I searched for ac det but i did not find it sorry.

                        With pin 16 i get this on the scope

                          Ok, this means the AC detection is working... So... this is where I draw a blank. Did you try bridging MC552 standby switch?

                            Ok thats good. Not yet , was thinking i did it all wrong but I'm glad i did it right

                            Does it matter if its pin 11 or 13?

                              Btw , scope is a good way to measure! I'm really surprised!! What do you see at the last picture? Its starting at 5v dropping to 0v?

                              So if I'm correct its just a way to measure if the DC line is working throughout the PS?

                                  Pin 11 bridged to P25/Pin 9 did not do anything.
                                  Pin 13 bridged to P25/pin 9 does not turn on the TV but there is something happening.

                                  I used the multimeter to test the 5V STB on diode. ( Pins were connected the whole time ).
                                  I bridged pin 13 to pin 9 and the 5V dropped to 0.8v and i hear something ticking real soft , sounds like a old clock that you wind up. ( tickticktickticktick ).

                                  No power/clicks/led!

                                    Sounds almost like the 5VSB may be shorted on the main board... That would be odd...
                                    Maybe try powering 5VSB from a lab power supply separately?

                                      5v STB on P25/Pin9 or Pin12 on MC501 or directly on main board? So your now thinking power supply is ok?

                                        I don't know, I'm just brainstorming right now.
                                        Try keeping power board disconnected, just feed in 5V, and set a 1 amp current limit.
