    LG50 PA6500 Plasma no pic/sound

    Hi,

    I have a LG50PA6500 that I need some advice with. The set has no picture or sound and does not respond to the remote or the control buttons. On the front of the set the standby light stays red and on the back there are a couple of other lights. On the main board there is another red light and on the logic board there is a green flashing light.

    I have tested the outputs from the PSU board to the main board to determine if the PSU is at fault. The results I got are listed below in the same sequence they can be seen on the guide next to the plug. Can someone please tell me if these measured voltages are correct?

    M_ON 3.342V AUTO GND 0.006V
    RL_ON 2.561V AC DET 4.165V
    STBY 5.196V STBY 5.196V
    GND 0.02V GND 0.02V
    GND 0.02V GND 0.02V
    5.2 5.192v ERR DET 3.855v
    5.2 5.192v 5.2 5.192V
    GND 0.02V GND 0.02V
    17 17.04V 17 17.04V

    Any advice would be welcome.
    Thanks,

    Anthony.

    These sets had a tab issue on the top most panel flex
    check for a bubble or split on the panel flex before you go any further ,because if the flex is damaged the tv will be a write off
    do this by removing the top buffer board
    Also check the top buffer chip or shorts
    If you have a shorted chip you will need to replace the ysus ,both buffers ,and this will be uneconomical
    If interested i have one of these sets working with sound ,but with faulty buffer boards
    how to test buffer boards

      do you have any power to both ysus and zsus boards ?
      Check the fuse on the LHS ysus board and the fuse on the RHS xsus board ,both these are small yellow fuses marked fuse.

        Hi Chris, Thanks for the reply.

        I've had a look at all the flexes going into the buffer board and they all seem good. I've also tested the buffer boards for shorts by running a meter probe along the connectors and checking for any shorts to ground. The Y-sus does make alot of noise when it is powered up though. Is this normal?

          I've tested with a meter that there is power to the z-sus and y-sus boards via the plugs.
          I'll double check the fuses.

            On your control board

            Ie: this one.




            Put a wire jumper between the two holes marked ext auto gen.

            Here:



            Unplug the LVDS cable to main board.

            Plug in the TV and if you get test patterns on screen you have a faulty mainboard.

              Hi,

              I connected the two holes you mention with a jumper cable but got nothing on the screen.

              I have also tested the fuses on the y-sys and z-sys boards along with the PSU board and all the fuses seem ok. The voltages are recorded below.

              Y-sus. 16.4v
              Z-sus. 55v
              PSU top 140v
              PSU bottom 240v

              Are these the correct readings?

                Firstly before looking at your voltages, You did remove the LDVS cable when you jumpered the control board right?

                  Y-sus 15v ok but check Va should be 205v
                  check the voltage at the 8 pin plug right/top pin 8 as shown on the board
                  Your VA z-sus looks ok

                    Hi,

                    I jumpered the holes with the ribbon cable to the main board unplugged. Was this the correct one? I got no picture.

                      I'll double check the vs going to the ysus at pin 8. I'm sure I checked and it's ok. Will let you know.
