TH-46PZ85U Screen Failure
I know this is a common problem most people have with these TVs and I have reviewed many posts about them, but the vast majority of people are having blinking red lights, but mine is solid. And in all of my researching and hunting around, I can't seem to find anything other than possibly A board, D board, main power board, or POSSIBLE sub power board. Looking to narrow that down a bit. When I power the TV on, the red light comes on and stays lit(no blinking) and the backlight also comes on. But that's it. Nothing can be seen or heard, no menu, no input selected, nada, just the backlight. When I open the back of the TV up, I have 1 green LED on the SS board, 1 green LED on the SC board, and the 'digital audio out' on the A board has a red light in it, but no other lights. No noticeable arc-burns(unless I've overlooked it and I haven't removed the A board to check the D board yet). Fans come on, I hear the relays clicking. When I disconnect the A5, A6, and A7 connectors on the A board, I get a solid white screen. I'm assuming this is either the A board or the D board, but as said before, I saw someone commenting on another post on AVSforums saying this means power supple board, but unsure which route to try first. I picked the TV up from a woman whose house I painted and she just wanted it gone. Any help in direction would be appreciated.
Also, it looks like what appears to be a bulb on the sub power board is present but not lit up like the leds and is defintely larger.. is this supposed to light up? I can attach pictures if anyone needs to see them, just have to attach them from my phone. No test tools at the moment, but I can pick something up if needed. Thanks everyone in advance!
