    Panasonic Plasma Vertical tearing

    Have a TH-42PX50U that has a vertical tearing issue, ive attached a pic. all voltages check out fine, was wondering if this looks familiar to anyone? Suspecting lower buffer board. any info would be greatly appreciated!

    Re: Panasonic Plasma Vertical tearing

    yeah, that's messed up. I'm thinking along the lines of a sustain board maybe SS or SC or even sd/su buffers. That does not narrow it down much but that's my gut feeling

        I would check -Vad, Vsc, Vs, Va and Ve voltages.
        I would suspect the SC board.

          my vscn is off, only gettin 47, SM calls for +130V +/-4v. new SC on the way i will update when it arrives. originally thought lower buffers but noticed this set uses uppers as well and is split into 3 section totaling 6. so the chances all 6 went bad are not very likely.

            Remember Vscn needs to be measured across the test point or from -Vad (manual should say how/where to test)
            47V is plausible if -Vad is low, e.g. only -90V or -100V on older panels, as Vscan usually 150V above -Vad.

                  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...

                  Hi everyone!
                  I happened several times, in the search for help from the web, to consult this very interesting forum.
                  So I decided to sign up and I intend to participate actively by making available my knowledge and experience on the subject, I'm a new user but at the same time I'm old in the sense that I have 4 decades of experience in repairing and designing electronics but above all I'm a great passionate about the subject.

                  Having said that I come to the gist of my post on the forum as the title suggests.
                  For my passion for technology I'm now collecting several...

                  Panasonic ZT60 plasma tv with strange behavior and 8 blink code
                  by cloo
                  I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
                  It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.


                  So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
                  After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...

                  Panasonic Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
                  by Alicat
                  Hello,

                  Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

                  Model number is TH-50PZ85U

                  Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

                  Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

                  I also hear a few clicks.

                  I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

                  Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...

                  Panasonic P42S30 Plasma - Pink sparkles
                  by Lintesir
                  My parents' Panasonic P42S30 died recently, and they asked me to have a look at it. I was able to identify the SN-board as the culprit, as it was shorted. After removing Q401, Q402, Q421 and Q422 the short was gone, so I replaced these components and that got the TV working again. However, when testing the tv a bit, I noticed quite bad pinkish sparkles on some colors. For instance the greyish bar on this forum seems to trigger it quite badly. I made a fullscreen test picture with only that color, with the below result.

                  There is about a 5cm high region at the top without any sparkles,...
