    My LG PLasma lower y-Buffer went out again? why

    Hi All
    hoping i can get some idea with what is wrong with my LG plasma 50PA6500. worked fine for 2 years with no issues then last month i turned it on and got sound but no picture,

    searched online i found out its the Y-Sustain board that could be bad, ordered a new one and replaced it but still same issue,so it was not the Y-sustain board, then i checked both y-buffer boards and lower one was the culprit there was one short IC in lower y-buffer board as i checked with an old analogue multi meter, Ordered a new lower y-buffer board and after i replaced the lower Y-buffer board i got a picture on the Display, but next day i turn it on and there was no picture again, just sound, it was the lower y-buffer board that went out again.

    What is causing the y-buffer board to go out even with a new Y-sustain board? do i need to order and replace both top and lower y-buffer boards or something is wrong with the power supply/Z-boards? can any one help me to identify the problem??

    Could be bad panel ribbons on this model. Im aware the panel ribbons have a habbit of shorting on these and killing the buffer. Could also be bad Zbias cause by cold solder joints on Zsus.

      I agree. Check the solder joints under the copper coils on the board. Check every solder joint under there. Fresh lead solder never hurts.

          More likely a bad panel if the Same Chip went....
