    Magnavox 42mf231d/17 - low Vsc

    Hello,

    Found this guy in the trash (how unusual...). My wife loves it when I bring home orphans....Heavy son of a ...

    No image, steady blue power-on LED. Three bad caps in all. One on ps, two on y-sus. Replaced.

    All voltages check out except for Vsc. Should be getting -190, getting a steady -80 which drops to -30 something if I take off the the y-buf boards.

    Any suggestions? Many, many thanks in advance.

        Magnavox 27MS5402/17 CRT - no picture, flashing green light
        by sudz28
        I'm going to assume my beloved Magnavox CRT is toast, but also figured maybe this was a good opportunity to dip my toes into he circuitry waters and maybe learn something new. Also, I don't want to trash it if it's a fairly cheap/easy fix!

        My 20-year-old Magnavox has gotten me and my kids through many a gaming console change and worked great up until the other day. Following a long distance move, it sat in our garage for a year and now that I brought it in and turned it on I get no picture; instead, a green light blinks on the front of it; 7 flashes, one long flash, then 3 more...

        Magnavox 32MD350B/F7 getting a false on/off control voltage
        by barrybahr
        Hello,
        The unit is stuck in an intermittent on/off cycle. When I plug in the power cord, the green "On" light activates without any command, flashes for a few seconds, then turns off. The red standby light comes on for a few seconds before the cycle repeats. During this time, I cannot turn off the unit manually; it will shut off automatically after about five minutes, and there is no picture. Occasionally, with repeated attempts to power it on, I eventually get a picture and sound, which function properly. When it does work, I measure several voltages, and they appear to be normal....

        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...
