    lg 42PX4DV-EA switches on then off

    Hey guys I've found myself a plasma and so far I'm not a fan!

    This one clicks on the light goes from red to amber to green and then clicks off and back to red. Caps all appear ok from a visual inspection. Also once its put itself back in standby if I attempt to turn it back on again the light will turn amber but theres no clicks from the power supply and the light doesn't go green I have to disconnect power for a short peroid before the supply will click again.

    I have no clue other than some thing else on the power supply is bad, any ideas?

    Thanks

    havent liked plasmas since I tore 1 apart, panny, with 2 loud fans and a whole lot of parts to deal with, no tab bond issues tho.

        could still be a cap, they dont have to bulge to be bad.

                  I think I'm making progress, with the zsus board disconnected the power supply doesn't click back off it stays on

                      Probably zsus or the buffers at fault then, could you take pics of the boards please.

                            Also the fuse near the capacitors on the zboard, when thats taken out the psu remains on as well.

                                Hello everyone. I have a problem with an HP laptop, when connecting the charger the amber light comes on for 6 seconds, changes to white and does not charge, I have checked all the components with the multimeter and the values seem correct, I was guided by the diagram, I do not know if it is a problem with the BQ24728H charge controller, investigating it seems that the voltages given by the charge controller are correct, I made the measurements connected to the power source and without the battery:
                                - ACN (BQACN) 19.6v
                                - ACP (BQACP) 19.6v
                                - CMSRC (BQCMSRC) 19.6v

                                Dell Latitude 5420 / GDF40 LA-K491P REV 3.0 / Amber / Orange light when power button is pressed
                                by zwect
                                I have this Dell Latitude 5420 with ST: CMF62F3, board GDF40 LA-K491P REV 3.0 that does not power on, i already searched for some clues about this problem that happens on mine but no BIOS i downloaded and flashed did anything.
                                Only when the power brick is connected, when pressing the power button an amber light lights up at the front and slight decreases its brightness, the RAM and the CPU seem to heat up if the laptop is left connected but nothing else, other than USB devices getting powered.
                                Here is the original BIOS dump from the 25R256JVEN chip.

                                LG 50PK590 - three clicks and steady red light, won't turn on.
                                by Noah Glasse
                                Hi all,

                                I've got a LG 50PK590 plasma TV which upon plugging in will click three times and the red LED in the corner will come on and stay on, the TV however doesn't come on (no humming, sound, video, etc.) and using the touch controls or the remote does nothing. On exceptionally odd occasions, the TV will come on and work normally when plugged in and will last about 5 minutes before going back to off and unresponsive.

                                I've got the back off of it and none of the caps stand out as visibly buggered, I've also tested the three resistors in the corner of the power board which...
