So this thing, for which I have no service literature whatsoever for just showed up at the door to be looked at.
This customer is a bit of a DIYer so he gave me the Y sustain board to recap. A 250V 150uF cap (C5091) was bulging and all of those types (Samwha PF) were replaced with Panasonic EE high ripple type caps. When that failed to fix the issue, I told him to bring the entire TV in as there was no way I was going to troubleshoot this one board at a time.
The symptom is the same: The boot sound plays, there is no image and then the standby LED blinks 6 times. What does 6 blinks mean and what board should be probed first?
This is also the first plasma to grace my bench! I have a general idea of what the boards do, etc but no practical experience actually troubleshooting one. (I'm mainly doing PCs, LCD monitors and big power amps here.)
