My beloved Panasonic TC-P42ST30 has been stricken with the 14 blink code.
I've spent many hours reading through forums, watching YouTube videos and reading the Panasonic plasma troubleshooting guide. But I'm a novice at this, and still need some help to cross the finish line.
I understand the Panasonic troubleshooting guide suggests that the 14 blink code usually means there's a problem with either P-board or A-board. However, I also learned the problem frequently rests with the SN-board.
Using my multi-meter, I was able to confirm the P-11 pin on the P-board is working fine, which leads me to believe the A-board is probably fine, too.
The P-2 pin on the P-board is testing as a short. I ordered a replacement board, tested it and had the EXACT same problem with P-2 testing as a short.
Question: Just double checking, if the P-2 tests as a short, that means the board needs to be replaced, correct?
The SC/SN-2 pin on the SN-board is also testing short.
Question: If the SN-2 pin tests short, that means the SN-board should be replaced, correct?
Thank you!
