    LG 42" Plasma TV - Howto invoke AUtO GEN?

    Hi all,
    I got in this beast of a tv of which i am needing advice on how to access the AUTO GEN function so that i can test if my main board is perhaps faulty.
    There is a 4 pin plug on the plasma control board but i don't know what to do there and i cannot find any reference on the web to it.
    I have added photos to jar your memories...
    This is PDP42V8 chassis.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Angelos

    I believe you need to short pins 3 & 4 on the plug (2&3 are the same point)

      Will Do R_J. I need to test that the main boad is alive before i move to suspect the plasma drive boards. Then i will create a new thread on my observations.
      Thank you.

        Lenovo G50-80 Auto Power On when AC is detected
        by classicandy
        Hi Everyone,

        I have a Lenovo G50-80 that auto powers On when AC (Charger) is connected. I have checked the BIOS settings and there is no option to turn On or Off that feature as it is in some HP EliteBooks. I did update the BIOS and still same.

        I then flashed the BIOS with a different bin file I downloaded here, It worked (didn't auto power on) for some time (after testing up to 5 times) but has now started again to auto power on when AC is connected.

        The CMOS battery voltage is 3v. I have also tested with two main batteries as well. I would be glad if anyone...

        by ArMaaN376
        Hello,
        I am having Samsung PS51E550 Plasma TV. While the TV was working, a crackling sound heard & video went off with audio still ON. After switching it off & ON, the red LED on TV blinks six times & then off.
        Opened TV cover & observed foll
        a) Green LED on the small PCB blinks at @5-6sec ON & off for 3-4 secs. Red LED on logic board ON
        b)Vs & Va on power supply board raises momentarily to 209v & 58v resp & then drops.
        c) Cold test on Y-main board shows all 3 pins of FGPF4536 IGBT short to Grnd.
        How to confirm Y -Buffer board...

        Panasonic plasma TX-P42ST50 - 6 blinks
        by jm1234
        Hi,
        anyone able to provide the service manual for old plasma Panasonic TX-P42ST50E?
        It turns off almost immediately (0~5 seconds after pressing the on/off button) and starts flashing the red diode 6 times.
        I disconnected the left-hand side board (SC?, both the ribbon cable and the power cable to it) and also another ribbon going to bottom left board. Then the led signal is 8 flashes. According to service guide to another Panasonic plasma it would mean the left-hand side board is faulty. But I'm not sure it 100% applies to my model.
        I checked that board for any obvious faults...

        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...
