    LG 60PA6500 (Plasma) no picture, with sound

    Hey!

    I'll start by saying I did some reading in this forum and other places, and I looked into this guide:
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18542
    But my case does not match perfectly anything I found.

    I inherited a 7 year old Plasma TV with an issue:
    After some random time (could be minutes, could be hours), it would turn itself off. I could immediate turn it back on. Most of the times it turned on with no problems, but sometimes it came with no picture (but with sound).
    The situation usually fixed it self in a matter of minutes, the picture would come back on.
    After about a week of having the TV, it turned itself off, came back with no picture, and it hasn't recovered yet...

    I'm attaching pictures of the boards in the back. I will try to turn it on with the top/bottom buffers disconnected to see what's the status, but I would be happy to hear your thoughts!

    I'm an electrical engineer with access to, well, everything (Solder, DMM, Scopes, whatever needed).

    Thanks
    Yoav

      Re: LG 60PA6500 (Plasma) no picture, with sound

      Updates:
      1. I tried disconnecting the top buffer. But since then, when I try to turn the TV on, it turns itself off a few seconds later. (I hear the relay click).
      This happens with both buffers connected, or with just one (any one)...

      2. However, If I disconnect the power from the YSUS board (YSUS is the one connected to the buffers, right?) then the TV turns on, and I get only sound.

      3. So I guess that the YSUS board is dead, and maybe also the buffers? Any ideas?

      4. I wanted to measure voltages on the YSUS power connector, but I think I might have shorted something by mistake, and smoke came out of the logic board :\
      Grr...

      5. The voltages are:
      VS = 206V
      VA = 55.3V
      5V = 5V

      6. EDIT - Surprisingly, the TV still turns on and still has sound! And I get a signal from the tuner/antenna! On the back, the red LED on the main board is working, but the green LED on the logic board isn't.
      Is it possible for the TV to work without the logic board? The smoke came out from this chip on the logic board (see picture).

      7. So my plan is to buy a new logic board, a new YSUS board, and maybe new buffers?
      Any ideas?

      8. I can't seem to find a YSUS board anywhere, does anyone have an idea where can I find one? I will also take it off and see If I can find what's the problem and fix it myself.

          Im not an expert but I think you have blown the tcon board.

          But have a look at this it may help

              First of all, PLASMA TVs do not have a T-CON Bd. I think you mean is the LOGIC Bd. Check if you have 5V from the Y-SUS Bd. going to the Logic Bd.

                      Hitachi 55HDS69 55" Plasma TV - No Picture But Sound
                      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...

                      Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
                      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                      ...

                      Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
                      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...

                      Samsung UN70NU6900F no picture and no sound
                      by jchang
                      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...
