    Panasonic TX-P37C2 1 blink

    I got this set, and on plugging it in it had 1 blink. Tried with isolation of SC and SS board, and everything seemed fine.
    Then noticed that everything is corroded on A board, especially A32 connector, it really looked very bad, so assumed that is the problem and i ordered new a board.
    Got it - again 1 blink. Had no idea what else to try, because 2 main boards gave me 1 blink, thought maybe panel is bad.
    Remembered tw fixed some 1 blinkers. So i got an ebay ch341 flasher. In mean time i acquired a TX-P42C2, and downloaded EEPROM IC9304, save it on my PC.
    Today i tried again to check this 37c2, again 1 blink, checked everything else and everything is pointing to a board.
    Flashed TX-P37C2 with TX-P42C2, plugged it in, turned on, and no blinks
    Perfect picture, didn't try anything else like hdmi, only terrestrial but i assume it should work.
    A board is TNPH0829, flashed IC9304.

    So attached is bin file for TX-P42C2, but it should and it will work on TX-P37C2 1 blinker.

    Thank you tw2005, it's your fix

    So the new mainboard was also "bad" ? Reclaim your money for the mainboard and with the reflash you got a board for free/cheaper.

    I would clean/reflow the old connectors on the mainboard and see if you can get it working again.

      Well i was on the business trip, and was out for 2-3 months so no way to try the board, and i didn't leave any feedback, that was the best thing i could do. But yes basically the guy sold me one blinker, claimed it's working. Well we are used to guys like that, especially when they say that SC board, or buffers are ok, they are pulled from working tv with smashed screen, how yes no
      I took out A32 connector, and i will try to repair it, the original board, if not, no harm, at least i have a spare EEPROM

        True! Good job , i might get these ch341 also. Why buy a new board if you can fix it with the EEPROM. Problem is , you need a working board to get the EEPROM data , you can't dld it somewhere....

            OK, i made a mistake.
            I have both TX-P42C2 and TX-P42X20.
            I thought i flashed board with 42C2 but actually i did flash it with 42X20, because they are all the same and i mixed everything

            Btw, fixed both of this 42" sets, i will try to write down everyhing that i did.

                Well, i am again of to a business trip, so i can't read bin from 42C2 but you can try with the one in my first post, that is the one from TX-P42X20 - i think the only difference between these 2 sets is in the number of the AV inputs.
                You can try it - nothing to lose basically, you can only win a working board.
