    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.

                              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...

                              by SluggerB
                              This is my first Craigslist freebie fix attempt. 50 inch LG Plasma TV Previous owner said over time it was struggling to turn on, it would take 4-5 times to turn on, the one day it just did entirely. I took it home and plugged it in, I her a click, then a second later another click, and nothing. Dead as a doorknob

                              So I took the back off and check voltages. The power supply appears fine, I checked the VS, VA, and 5V voltages and they all measured correct, on the power supply board and on the display boards (Y and X boards). All the fuses are fine

                              by Chris555
                              The TV turns on and works normally for a short time but eventually the video shuts off and only the sound is playing. The problem has been getting worse over the past couple of weeks. Initially, unplugging for a while solved the problem and it worked properly for several hours until the next failure. Now it usually fails after a few minutes and unplugging does not always reset it to a good state. Also, it does appear that using the remote for functions like accessing the menu or changing the video input sometimes causes the failure to occur immediately, though changing the volume seems to have...

                              The customer of this TV Heard a pop sound before it went dead.

                              The VS and VA voltages turn on imediatly and then slowly die off.

                              I got a replacement Y-Board (Large board on the left) from aliexpress and still no luck

                              If tested all the IC chipson the board all the way on the left by running meter along the connectors and couldnt find any shorts there...

                              I think ive checked most the capacitors for shorts as well as most of the diodes and mosfet/transistors on the big boards.
