    Akai pdp5073tmc plasma no hdmi

    I picked up a 50" Akai plasma from 2006. It works well and has a nice picture. Component inputs work as expected but when I plug an HDMI cable into the TV it registers as "no input". I've tried a few different sources (blu ray and cable box) and a few cables. Tried 720p, 1080i etc- nothing. Not a "mode not supported" but "no input" - like it is not even registering a signal.

    Any suggestions?
    I've attached a couple pics of the main board where the hdmi input is.

    I'm tempted to remove this board and reflow in an oven, but it has quite a few electrolytic caps (unlike most main boards).

    Can these cylindrical electrolytic caps tolerate a reflow at 380F for 10 minutes?

      No no no ! These boards are prone to blowing the caps will link my video on the same board.

          In fact I can already see some blown up ones on your board bet thats possibly the issue.

            Thanks for the info. I didn't see any obvious bulging caps when I first looked at the board but I might have another closer look...

              Its the little ones, I measured some with my esr tester even ones that looked ok but had esr of 40ohms aka open circuit so be careful. You have an esr meter ?

                Thanks again for the help! No I don't have an esr meter, just a digital multimeter. I replaced 5 X 200uf 16v caps that were slightly bulging with 200uF 25v caps, but that made no difference. There are so many electrolytic caps on this board that I don't think it is worth it to go any further. I don't feel like replacing 20+ caps just to (maybe) get HDMI back. Component still works fine I guess.

                  The tv will give issues in the future if you dont replace the caps. The little ones that normally dont bulge are already bulging. So if you want a tv for a few weeks then dont bother , if you want it to play a good picture for a longer period of time then replace the caps.
                  I only repair Panasonic plasma tv's! Currently owning a TX-P55VT50 and still searching for a ZT60!

                    HDMI issue is prob the controller chip--in addition to the cap issue....

                      Thanks everyone for the input.

                      There are at least 100 caps on this board so replacing most/all of them would be quite an undertaking to say the least. Unless someone can pinpoint the ones I should be focusing on.

                      And I'm also wondering if the HDMI controller chip might be bad as mentioned above. Probably not much I could do if that was the case.

                        Marantz SR4003 AVR HDMI board issue, seeking for help
                        by aliougm
                        I have problem with my AVR(Marantz SR4003) HDMI board issue. I connect to my TV but screen color distorted,see attached picture.

                        Connection as below:
                        Set-top box HDMI output >AVR 3 HDMI input/one HDMI output>HDTV HDMI port
                        If I bypassed AVR then HDTV screen color be good.

                        I take out HDMI board from AVR and check services manual the schematic shown the HDMI signals path:
                        3 HDMI input port > SIL9185 chip(HDMI switch) > SIL9033 chip(HDMI receiver) > SIL9030 chip(HDMI transmitter) > HDMI output port

                        I replaced all...

                        Certain DisplayPort-HDMI cables can disable HDMI CEC communication
                        by japlytic
                        With a setup including a TV and AV receiver where HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) and Audio Return Channel (ARC) functions were working, these two functions stopped working after changing some connections (not the one between the AV receiver and TV), so I believed it was a corrupt setting in the AV receiver or TV, but when I disconnected a passive DisplayPort-HDMI cable (which a Multimode DisplayPort connector supports HDMI with a low cost passive cable or adaptor) connected to a home theatre PC, HDMI CEC and ARC functionality was restored.
                        An examination of the HDMI CEC wiring...

                        Toshiba 50UL2063DB randomly rebooting with HDMI-CEC and/or HDMI-ARC enabled
                        by spleenharvester
                        I have this TV hooked up to only an AppleTV 4K and a Creative soundbar. Originally HDMI-CEC and HDMI-ARC wouldn't work at all, I replaced all the HDMI cables with decent UGREEN cables meeting the latest standards, now it all works perfectly but once or twice a day the TV itself reboots while watching a program, the AppleTV keeps running. I haven't fully pinned down whether it is ARC or CEC causing it yet. All are running latest firmware.

                        I assume it is just HDMI-CEC being buggy as usual on a shitty Vestel machine, but can anyone think of anything I can try before disabling it?

                        LG LCD TV HDMI PORT FAULTY
                        by RossMoodley1967
                        LG LCD TV picture comes on intermittenly using hdmi port.The sound is on permantly.The hdmi ports looks fine and soldered in securely.The 3.4v coming to the main board is not present(not sure if will affect the hdmi port or where that voltage goes.)The hdmi cable is fine because it works on another tv.The ceramic caps connected to the hdmi controller ic is reading 39 ohms.Could the hdmi controller ic be faulty(feels very warm to touch).The RCA jacks work normally .Thank you in advance for your assistance..

                        Pioneer VSX-44 receiver HDMI dropouts
                        by RatherLoopy
                        I have an older Pioneer receiver (VSX-44) that's been dropping the HDMI output (black screen) for a few seconds every few minutes. Setup is HTPC -> Pioneer DVD HCMI in -> Pioneer HDMI out -> Samsung TV HDMI in, all with cheap HDMI cables that have never caused trouble before..

                        I initially found a lot of play in the receiver's HDMI inputs and output so I kind of squeezed them back into shape and they're making a tighter connection, but the problem persists.

                        And also, often, the HDMI will drop out in exactly the same way (black screen) just as my central air...
