    Panasonic TC-P50U50 Screen Flash Then Blanks Out 7-8 Flashes Power LED

    Just got in a Panasonic.. Nice condition cosmetically speaking..

    I power it up, see a quick flash of the input (HDMI-1) and then the screen goes blank and the power LED blinks 7-8 times..

    The boards look good, no blown caps or burn marks...

    It's something I going to jump on around 0200-0300 EST tomorrow, but just wanted to get an idea of where to start...

    You'll need to get the exact code - 7 and 8 are different errors. 8 is a very common fault on this model and is very easy to fix...

      If I recall correctly, after it blanks out, it gives a 7 blink code and then subsequent sets are 8 blinks..

      I'll confirm more in the morning....

      Thanx for the reply....

            http://www.ebay.com/itm/361208293712...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

            It's got an extra IC in there not mentioned in the other available kits..

              You could probably buy the parts separately for less.

                Yea, good point.. Would it be worthwhile to purchase several?? Do you know if it's a common component??

                  It's going to be reasonably unique for this model.

                      Replacement parts fixed the problem. Didn't want to mess with buying the wrong part so I just got the repair kit from ShopJimmy...

                      Unit is up and running. Thanx to all..

                        pretty easy job by the sounds of it. I thought the price of that kit was ok given it had everything + the screws.

                            I don't think digikey would have had all those parts especially the transistor and the driver IC

                              Hi all,
                              I’m trying to recover a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7-14ARE05 with board DA0LS3MBAF0 Rev:F. I’ve run into an unusual issue where USB-C PD is stuck at 4.7–5V and the system won’t boot (keyboard lights flash briefly, then nothing).
                              🔥 The Problem Started After Suspected ESD/PD Fault
                              I experienced a power issue or ESD event through a USB-C charger
                              After that, the NX20P5090 power switch was visibly burned and was replaced
                              Now the PD controller always negotiates 5V @ 2A, even with known-good chargers

                              Nikon D800 camera - flash don’t work and capacitor don’t charge
                              by corrize
                              Hello, I'm stuck in troubleshooting…
                              The flash system works like that : when the (mechanic) flash button is pressed, the flash mecanically pop up, and a circuit buck boost elevate 7v (batt) to 200-300v (?) for charging the big capacitor. And when the photo shoot button is pressed, the capacitor is discharged in the xeon light.

                              In the D800, there is a first « power board » close to the battery. 2 wires (batt 7v) goes to another little « flash board ». I measured 7v, so ok.
                              When I press the flash button, it's detected by the system, flash icon appear on LDC display....

                              by James Jackson
                              I usually try to figure these things out on my own but am asking for help now as I have been beating my head against a wall.

                              Backstory, I initially ended up with a CF20 Mk2 with a locked BIOS. I used aptio to read the BIOS and made the adjustments to the .rom file and attempted to write it back with aptio before reading other users problems with that setup. Well it bricked the BIOS go figure. Computer no longer boots, black screen. I found a clean BIOS on this forum but now I am having ME issues. So I would rather hand over the aptio dump(pre BIOS brick) and a hardware reader dump(post...

                              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 😂.

                              Canon VIXIA HF S10 A read data from inernal flash memory.
                              by abajor
                              Hello I've had somebody bring in one of these charming little cameras to attempt retrieving data from the internal 32GB flash.
                              Something is damaged inside the cameras lens assembly I can hear it clunking around and it has probably dislodged the sensor, powering up the camera gives a blank screen and the focus motor sounds like it's having a fit.
                              The camera will not connect to a computer via USB in this state, I have no options no navigation, just power up and focus/zoom motor noises.

                              I think my best shot is to figure out a way to read the internal flash memory outside...
