    LG 60PZ550 Plasma - No Sound, No Picture (quick VSC, VY question)

    Had a quick question on this LG and found another thread talking about my exact issue where within the thread, Tom66 posted:

    "OK, on the Y-sustain, there should be some points or components marked Vsc and -Vy, do you see these? They may look similar to the "Vzb" marking on the Z-sustain in the top right corner."


    The answer to that in THAT thread was low VZB, indicating a bad Z-SUS, but in my set, the VSC and VY are only 19v, everything else in the set checks okay.

    My question is: if my VSC and VY on the Y-SUS are measuring only 19v, is this a clear indication of a defective Y-SUS? This is a Y-SUS that was just installed because the set was in shutdown with an obvious bad Y-SUS; replaced it, now set runs, but no prime. I didn't suspect the Y-SUS, until remembering to check the VSC and VY after ruling out buffers, Z-SUS, logic and Main. (I've checked the buffers: no shorts. No blow fuses on any board. Logic and main board have been substituted with no change and then I found this low VSC and VY.)

    If the buffer is out does Vsc rise ?

      I tried taking the upper and lower buffer out and then testing it, but then there is 0v on VSC when I do that. It doesn't even go up at all when the set is powered on. I highly suspected the buffers, but I've tested them for shorts 3 times and I keep finding no problem. I know they can fail in some other way that is not detectable with the standard short test, but....

      I'm open to any suggestion. I just desperately need to get this figured out as soon as possible.

            Ok seems like the Ysus is dud then, have you check for SC on the board if not just swap it.

              Thanks for replying! Do you mean "check for VSC"? Yes, I did (see my previous posts) and it is only 19v. I ordered another YSUS and hopefully that will solve the problem.

                SC = short circuit

                  Ahhh..I got ya. So on the Y-SUS, check to see if there is a short between VS and ground? And/or check all the fets and such?

                    Yip, the y and the z sus on this model are prone to cracked joints also. So when you replace any part ensure you've throughly checked for cracked joints or it will blow again.

                      Yes, they were checked and resoldered.

                        Another Y-SUS arrived and I installed and BINGO! It works! Very happy on this one. Thank you to all involved! I just never suspected the Y-SUS because it was already replaced and brought the set to life again (out of shutdown, but then had no picture), so apparently it was a partially defective Y-SUS.

                              by KYBOSH
                              Picked up a bahemoth plasma TV not too long ago and just now getting around to looking at it.
                              No picture but you hear the TV static (white noise) playing loud and clear.
                              The back was already taken off (and no screws were provided) as the previous owner had already taken a look.
                              But it seems they didn't get too far and just left it.

                              When I first took a look I was amazed at how pristine the inside looked.
                              Its as if the TV had been in a time capsule.
                              Caps looked like they were just pulled off the self.
                              Copper coils had no sign of corrosion on...

                              by TR103
                              Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
                              - sound and backlight, but no picture
                              - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
                              - it keeps rebooting
                              - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
                              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
                              - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

                              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

                              Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
                              by Mgiffune
                              I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

                              I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and

                              by Ierwin
                              Hello everyone,
                              Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
                              The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
                              He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
                              I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
                              Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

                              Hi all

                              I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



                              Symptom:
                              No picture no sound.
                              When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
                              No sound at all.



                              What I tried:
                              1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...
