    Thanks. Still stick with low setting? Just closer and longer?

      After attempting to reflow it again, now I'm not getting anything on screen.
      Front led changes from red to white and that's it.
      No back lights either.

      I had a feeling I would make it worse.

        Might have burst a bga solder ball or it was the chip internally faulty, only fix is replace the chip. Maybe get a new board boss ?

          You need to put the flux under the cpu and use high setting on the heat gun. Do it for 3 minutes on 1 distance and make circles around the cpu.

          I just did it this evening and my tv is working. If its already dead just try it again.
          I only repair Panasonic plasma tv's! Currently owning a TX-P55VT50 and still searching for a ZT60!

            I just tried the oven again at 425F for 10 minutes.
            I can't buy bother board reecey. None available on eBay.
            I'm not even going to look on taobao. I've already lost money there once.

            If this bake doesn't solve it, I'll try heat gun on high for 3 minutes.
            If that doesn't fix it, it's scrap.

                After this last bake, I'm back to having the lg life's good on screen but now it stays on there. It doesn't go away.
                I think I'll either spend the $135 to send it in or junk it. I got it free so I'm not out anything.

                Reecey, you just posted as I was lol. I can store it. Along with the p55vt30 and the 2 p42vt30 I have and let's not forget the 32" I'm waiting for the eeprom to arrive.
                My wife is going to kill me.

                    Not a board. Repair services. There are 0 boards on eBay and only one offering a repair service.

                    Ptselectronics has a repair service for $95.

                      What do they do in the repair service ?

                        They don't say. As I said earlier in the thread, I asked the guy if the change the 48 pin flash chip/eeprom and he said no.
                        But like someone else said, maybe they do and just don't say. That's why I didn't press. They can say whatever is convenient and I can't blame them. It's their livelihood.

                          Got the board back from pts and they said it wasn't economically repairable.
                          So, I took a chance and purchased one from eBay for the 55lv5500 and the tv is now working.
                          Got it cheaper than the pts repair would have been.

                          It did an auto update of the firmware too. The only thing is the model is identified as a 55lv5500 in setup, about.
                          Not sure if it can be changed.
