    Insignia NS-42p650a11 (42in Samsung Plasma). It won't turn on but just clicks.

    Hey folks! Here is where I am at. I have read tons of posts relating to this model and also watched many videos. A picture of the back removed is attached as the wiring for this is different from the 50 inch. This was my neighbor's TV and he moved out. He told me that at times it powered on and other times it turned off. The tv is a Insignia NS-42p650a11 (42in Samsung Plasma). It won't turn on but just clicks.

    When I plug it in, the relay clicks and the red stand by lights blinks. There is no picture or sound. The green light on the logic board lights up and the red light on the main board also.

    I disconnected the from the PSU the y board. The X board is connected to the y board but not the PSU. Screen does not turn on but the relay clicks. If you hit the power button again, the relay clicks once and the green light on the logic board goes solid and blinks once every five seconds. Still nothing on the screen.

    I performed the test just like this guy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovnw8BrsQnY I disconnected the Yboard from PSU, nothing. I disconnected the X from the Y and reconnected the Y to the PSU, still nothing and the light blinks once every 5 seconds.

    This video(at 1:28) indicates https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjrwTZC5nVg that if the light blinks once every 5 seconds, there is a problem with the Y buffer, y main, or x main boards. If this is the case, then why is the TV not making any audio when I disconnect the Y main, and X main, just like in this video? Is the X and Y both bad?

    Insignia NS-LCD019-09 issue: Power light turns blue for 3 seconds, the flashes red before going solid read again
    by cajoeg
    Hello, I'm new to the group and to trying to repair a LCD TV. During the past few years, I've been collecting/repairing/restoring vintage personal computers (Commodore, Apple II, Atari, TRS-80, Texas Instruments, and Timex Sinclair). This has been my retirement hobby. Now I've gotten interested in trying to repair a LCD TV that I have and used regularly when working on vintage computers.

    The LCD I'm working on is a Insignia NS-LCD019. I've downloaded the service manual that I could find, but it must be a different revision since not too many items in the service manual match the TV...

    Insignia plasma n2-42p650a11 black horizontal lines
    by jmandawg
    Hi I picked this up on the side of the road. It has black horizontal lines on the display. It's it repairable?

    I looked for bulging caps but didn't see any.

    Thanks...

    Hello,
    I am having Samsung PS51E550 Plasma TV. While the TV was working, a crackling sound heard & video went off with audio still ON. After switching it off & ON, the red LED on TV blinks six times & then off.
    Opened TV cover & observed foll
    a) Green LED on the small PCB blinks at @5-6sec ON & off for 3-4 secs. Red LED on logic board ON
    b)Vs & Va on power supply board raises momentarily to 209v & 58v resp & then drops.
    c) Cold test on Y-main board shows all 3 pins of FGPF4536 IGBT short to Grnd.
    How to confirm Y -Buffer board...

    Panasonic plasma TX-P42ST50 - 6 blinks
    by jm1234
    Hi,
    anyone able to provide the service manual for old plasma Panasonic TX-P42ST50E?
    It turns off almost immediately (0~5 seconds after pressing the on/off button) and starts flashing the red diode 6 times.
    I disconnected the left-hand side board (SC?, both the ribbon cable and the power cable to it) and also another ribbon going to bottom left board. Then the led signal is 8 flashes. According to service guide to another Panasonic plasma it would mean the left-hand side board is faulty. But I'm not sure it 100% applies to my model.
    I checked that board for any obvious faults...
