    LG 50PC1D need help guys

    Hi all.
    Got an LG plasma 50PC1D. Came in with this failure:
    Picture flashes up bright for 1/10 of a second or so. Goes black for one or two seconds, then start's over , flashes up bright in an endless loop.

    I found a blown upper buffer board (6871QDH088A) replaced but still no difference in behaviour.

    According to my mains power meter , set draws about 200W constant from the mains.
    When the set flashes white , a sharp sound could be heard , probably from the high power consumption during the "flash".

    Pulled out the Y-SUS , without finding anything "obvious" like shorted IPM's or power mosfets.

    Is it safe to operate the set without the lower buffer / just the new upper in case the lower has been damaged?
    I have measured across the lower buffer without finding anything strange.

    Y-SUS part#: 6871QYH039B

    this does not mean you do not have a open IPM. You can run the set with one buffer and but you can also run it with no buffers. But I would advise having at least one buffer installed feel each IPM for a cold one after a few minutes of operation. What you're describing sounds like a bad lower ER IPM on YSUS. when the set is on and you see the bright flashing on the screen still here at significant ticking sound coming from one of the IPM modules?
    Did I leave the soldering iron on?

      Bad ER-IPM breaking down internally or something similar. Seen it before.
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
      For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

        The ER-IPM generates ticking...
        Did not dare to push it so long to make the heatsinks hot (or not).
        OK, so replacing the ER-IPM (the upper of the two) will probably make it good then?

          I have the exact fault here with a rebranded 50PC1D (Toshiba) and I am about to order an ER IPM as well. This will be my last messing with these IPM's, especially where they are paired up. Just replaced one in a 60PC1D and blew after probably less than 10 hours of use.

          I read here it is important to replace with the exact module and suffix.

            Yeah, it's not the funniest of the jobs I can imagine.
            I hate IPM's and favor the discrete designs, but that's another story!

              Hi

              Sorry to jump your thread, but I was wondering if you could help me in providing the details of the components (value/markings) located on the power board.

              The components are shown on the board as C802 and D801 which are located between the two heat sinks.

              I have attached a photo to show actual location.

              Any assistance would be appreciated.

              Thanks

                C802 is a capacitor
                D 801 is a diode

                  LG 50PT350 bad lower y buffer
                  by shiz1
                  Hello everyone,
                  Recently received an older lg plasma for free to fix.
                  Symptoms - no picture but i have sound. I hear the click of the relay, and the hum from the ysus.

                  What i've tried - i remove the ysus buffers one by one, when i removed the lower buffer i get picture on the top half of the screen. Removing the top buffer and leaving the bottom still gives me a black screen.
                  i tested the va/vs at the psu and they're within spec as outlined by the sticker.
                  I tested the lower buffer checking continuity between the white connector - see attached pics - on the...

                  Problem

                  This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                  Schematic or datasheet for Plasma TV buffer chip
                  by Yanleb
                  Hi all,

                  I'm interested in understanding how a buffer board chip is working. I know there's about 90 outputs per chip to the plasma panel, but I'm more interested to know about the input pins. I guess that some of them are address pins, but I want to know more.

                  So far I've found nothing at all. I haven't found any datasheet about the various buffer chips, and I haven't found any schematic for the buffer board using them (Y Buffer Board in Samsung's terminology).

                  Any information will make me happy. It can be from any buffer chip or plasma TV manufacturer....

                  Sony OLED XR-77A80J - 5 Flashes But Turn On After Hard Reset
                  by odie34
                  I am a hobbyist (not a professional) so please be gentle...

                  I recently received an XR-77A80J that wouldn't turn on. (Repeating 5 flashes when plugged in.)

                  I did a hard reset by holding the power button for about 30 seconds until the set powered down. I then tried to turn it on and it powered up, bringing me to the setup screen. There's not a lot of detail on the setup screen but the picture didn't have any distortions, so at least a cursory examination suggests no physical damage to the screen. The set appeared to be working normally, but it shut down after about 15 seconds,...

                  Hi guys,
                  I have problems no picture with LG model 50PT350, first of all, I change the 2 buffer boards who was no good, the TV working 2 weeks and today same problem, I check and I found Zsus board defect now, I change it for a new one and no picture, I check VS VA and 5 volts , all this voltage are there, I disconnect the upper buffer board, no picture, I disconnect the lower buffer board, no picture, what I have to check now?...
