    P42G15 7 red blinks

    Hi,

    So I've got still broken P42G15E.
    Not so long ago I've started a thread with 5 blinks - > dead SC board.

    So today my new/old working SC board arrived, and after replacement I've got 7 blinks (screen flashes once and I can see a bit red tint on upper corners).

    So what is the next step to fix this problem?

    Edit.
    As I started a thread few days ago with a question regarding board revision the new SC board is a bit different. I had rev AH and the new is rev AD.
    Spotted differences:
    Electrolytic caps
    C414 old 250v 140uF, new 250v 250uF
    C415 old 250v 140uF, new NONE
    C419 old 250v 140uF, new NONE
    C412 old 250v 140uF, new 250v 250uF
    C417 old 250v 140uF, new 250v 250uF

    This blue caps
    C418 old NONE, new PMJI55J
    C633 old PMS305J, new PMS405J
    C632 old PMS305J, new PMS405J
    C631 old PMS305J, new PMS405J
    C634 old PMS305J, new NONE

    I would have kept the post with the original thread, anyway forget about the revision difference, a couple of things you can do.

    One would be check the sd/su for being shorted out or this would be a good indicator if it's the SC or not.

    perform the SD/SU isolation test where you disconnect those from the SC, remove the 4 Vfg grounding bolts for the SD/SU. On the SC at the small 2 pin connector SC50, jumper those 2 pins together, turn the TV on and see if it stays on or still 7 blinks. If it stays on, that would mean it's not the SC

      Samsung DM32D – Red LED blinks 5 times, won’t start (possible mainboard issue)
      by Nairolf
      Hello,

      I have a Samsung DM32D display.
      When I try to power it on, the red LED blinks 5 times and nothing happens—the unit won’t start.

      Here’s what I have tried so far:
      1. Disconnected the cable between the mainboard and the power supply → the backlight turns on.
      2. Disconnected the main T-CON ribbon cable → same issue as before, the LED still blinks 5 times.
      3. Disconnected one of the two T-CON ribbons to the panel (tested each one separately) → same issue, the LED blinks 5 times.

      From these tests, I suspect the problem might be on the mainboard. Could anyone...

      Panasonic TC-P55ST50 8 blinks then no blinks
      by Andre Gilbert
      Hello! yes I know there is already lots of information about this issue. I have a Panasonic TC-P55ST50 that originally displayed an 8-blink error code. Following the troubleshooting flowchart, I ended up replacing the SS board. However, even after replacing it, the issue persists. The TV turns on and stays on without displaying an image, and continuity is confirmed on all connectors. What am I missing here🤔?
      Ok Im a mechanical engineer ...but I thought I was able to follow a rather simple flowchart for electric troubleshooting 😂.

      TV Model: Panasonic TC-P55ST50

      Optiplex 3050 micro 2 blinks followed by 3 blinks issue
      by Taurus12
      Does anyone have an idea of what might be the issue with my 3050 micro? I have tried replacing new cmos battery but still the same

      I am not sure if its the powersupply that I'm using is the issue since its the original powersupply. its a laptop powersupply with the same specifications with the 3050 micro so i guess it should be fine.

      i also tried replacing the bios but with no avail, everytime i try another bios it gives a different blinking lights

      Any recommendation on what I have to do next? Thanks in advance

      Sony A1e 5-blinks help
      by jchon
      Hi I'm new to trying to repair TVs, but I saw a broken OLED offered for a reasonable price and thought I'd try my hand at it.

      I found the service manual, which was critical to know where to probe.
      https://www.manualslib.com/manual/20...1e-Series.html

      With it I was able to determine that my DKA board was bad, when P_ON#1/2 gets enabled REG_12 on the DKA board collapses. I'm assuming one of the downstream regulators has a short, but I couldn't work out which rail/component and replaced the DKA board entirely.

      Unfortunately the 5-blinks...

      Panasonic Viera Plasma TH-42PX75U 7 Blinks/8 Blinks/burned P board?
      by mmischni
      Greetings friends,

      I have a Panasonic TH-42PX75U manufactured in 2007. It has been trouble-free until recently. One evening I turned it on and it then powered back off and gave 7 blinks.

      First a question about the blinks. Everyone only speaks of a single number of blinks. I noticed on my TV, it blinks one fewer times for the first group of blinks, then blinks the full number repeatedly. So for my first code in question, the TV switches off, blinks 6, then blinks 7 repeatedly. When I disconnected the SC board, the TV switches off, blinks 7, then blinks 8 repeatedly....
