    Panasonic TC-P55GT31

    Have this 55" Panny and, after replacing the SC board (twice, with two different boards), the SU and the SD, it is still showing the 7 blink SOS.

    Question is: Being fairly convinced that these three boards are now in working order, is there anything else on these Panasonics that could and would cause the 7 blink code to appear?


    There are no shorts on the SU and SD boards, and as far as I could test it the SC (or, Y-SUS) board appeared to be in working order.

    Note: Did find this from a post here back in 2016, but both of the fuses on the PSU seem to be in working order:

    Looks like your repair kit is missing the micro sized ic and transistor. That could be responsible for it.

    ALSO check the power supply secondary fuse. It can fail together with the SC. If they are blown, it could also trigger the 7 blinks code.


    Unless there is another fuse on the PSU that he is calling the secondary?? Is there something else I should be checking on the Power Supply (or elsewhere) on the set in order to eliiminate this 7 blink code? I'm getting an initial jump of 197V coming out of the PSU and heading over to the SC (before the 7 blink code kicks in and the voltage then slowly descends), so I don't think anything is faulty with this particular Power Supply Unit.

    Check Q101 and Q102 on your SS board.

      Panasonic ZT60 plasma tv with strange behavior and 8 blink code
      by cloo
      I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
      It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.


      So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
      After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...

      panasonic TX-P50V10E 6 blink led problem
      by Vebririon
      Hi everyone,

      I'm new here and trying to repair my Panasonic TX-P50V10E plasma TV, which is currently showing the 6 red blink error code.

      Just for context: I'm used to building PCs and installing modchips in old consoles, but this is my first time trying to fix a TV. I'm French, and while my English is okay, I'm using ChatGPT to help translate and clarify my messages as much as possible — so please forgive any odd phrasing.

      I'm also not very experienced with using a multimeter, but I'm very motivated and ready to follow instructions carefully and report...

      Panasonic TH-42PZ800 8-blink error mystery
      by nervx
      Years ago my tv gave a 7 blink code which turned into 8 during diagnosis. I had ordered a replacement ss board but somehow the tv started working again and i never used the board. Now a week ago my tv flickered and shut off at random and gave the 8 blink error code. The same issue it had all those years ago. The only difference this time is that over the last few months there has been some purple and green tinge that comes and goes in more solid colors such as white.

      Anyway i checked all the screws and replaced the ss board with a known good one and still got 8 blinks. I saw a...

      by SentraDude
      Greetings from SoCal I am new to this forum but not new to forum world. I come from Automotive end of side which is my main passion in life. Give the automotive nature, I love fixing and restoring things and I have in the past fixed many simple electronics, soldering, etc.. but this is a bit more involved so I found this forum, and I am very glad I did.

      I picked up a Panasonic TC-P60VT60 with the 7 BLINK error.
      Upon removing the back plate I found spider webs, dead spiders, and an amazing amount of dust. I did my best to clean the surface of the boards with a portable vacuum...

      Panasonic Plasma repair - TH-P60GT50 - Dead, 3 blink code
      by rmacintosh
      I aquired this Panasonic 60" plasma around the time my first child was born. It was meant to be a project tv, hoping to fix it chipping away at the repair in my free time. Well that was 2 years ago and i'm really just getting around to making a sincere effort to see if I can ressurect this beast.



      The symptoms of the tv ar as follows:
      • Plug AC in to back of TV
      • After about 2 seconds the relay on the P-sub board will click on and then a fraction of a second later it clicks back off
      • The 3 blink code is given by the power LED
      • If the TV is unplugged and then
