    Re: Fixed - Panasonic TX-P42U30B how to locate thermal fuse

    It's fixed so a big thank you to all who offered support and knowledge, it was appreciated you believe me in my time of need!

    Now for future reference and addional information for others who have the solid Red Light fault, not the blinking light fault of any colour.

    My cure wasn't the "P" board or "A" board it was this instruction given by a Panasonic repair engineer, so this is the instruction for a reset:-

    Power cord plugged in but tv power on the side set to off.
    Press and hold the “F” function button and "(volume - )" button on the side of the tv at the same time, keep pressing.
    Then press and hold the power button on the side of the tv
    Hold all 3 for 10secs.
    My tv powered on and started working and the red light changed to green.

    Now I never noticed this instruction quoted in any of the information I read but others may have. However, on the plus side I've enjoyed reading various threads on this site, so I will continue to visit but only as a lurker, as I have limited knowledge and some posters on here are exceptionally talented engineers who offer quality advice freely which is highly commendable.

      That's an interesting fix and one I've not heard of before! Thanks for the update.

      It sounds like your TV had a similar issue to mine where it started crapping out but I did the reset just in time, before it was totally dead, and it seems to be fixed now. Odd!
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

        new one on me too but that confirms the issue was on the A-board at least.

                Thermal fuse for DeLonghi coffee machine EN 167.B
                by JupTec
                I would like to know the "thermal value" of the thermal fuse for the coffee machine "DeLonghi EN 167.B". This value is nor longer visible on the fuse itself (maby 167°C or 192°C or somethong similar ?).
                THANK YOU for your help!

                Help me to identify this Thermal fuse from my sister's mixer
                by Francesc V.
                Hi everyone:

                This is the second time I have my sister's mixer on the bench. First time I identified a blown tiristor......this time I guess it's the thermal fuse (reads open).

                My understanding is that it should be (NC) normally closed and open at 85C?????

                Could you help me to identify/get a good one? How many amps? I was about to buy a NC 10A, 85 celcius in Aliexpress. (ceramic one)......but I guess is too much.

                Wording in the back......... "limitor 16", "T160".


                Thanks in advance,
                Francesc....

                A funny fuse story – Lumix LX100 II
                by corrize
                Hello, I disassembled this dead camera, and found this WTF… Two fuses soldered one above the other !
                I was pretty sure nobody touched it before, but that can't be from factory. There is flux, and capacitor is probably missing.
                The other weird thing : the fuses are « G » fuse : (0.75A – 8V), seems very low. The original fuse should be « O » : (32V 2,5A).
                There is « O » mark beside. All fuses have the same mark letter on main board. So, I can deduce it's a « O » fuse.
                And this correspond to the issus I saw : when I plug the battery, I measure the voltage dropping...

                Hello everyone, how can you test a thermal fuse?
                I don't have a sign of life as an ohm or diode
                Thank you​
