    LG Plasma TV with no picture fault finding

    Hi friends,
    This is my first post in this forum and I hope I would fetch some of your valuable time

    Let me brief, long story short..
    I am working on an LG plasma TV model 42PQ30R.
    The fault is no display.
    The tv is turning on, the blue led is working, however there is no standby (red light), tv automatically going in run mode (i.e blue led)
    Note: sometimes gets off automatically but it happened only once or twice.

    I began my troubleshooting with the power supply, all fuse ok.
    power supply ok, getting the required panel voltages (Vs and Va) at power supply outputs.

    My next step was to check the Ysus board.
    Ysus P201 to SMPS P812 connector is OK.
    Ysus P209 to left X drive --ok
    checked the MOSFETs, IGBTs, all ok except a few, IRGP 4086, IRFP 4332, K3667 (2), but cannot confirm as they were tested onboard, not standalone.
    Ysus P206 to Z sus ---doubtful, reason -fluctuating voltage received at Er com and VS pins which should be as per panel label i.e 94.9 and 193 V respectively.

    My question is what seems to be the fault , am I going in the right direction, what should be my next step?

    additional info- the fault started with the TV displaying coloured snow in picture and then it went pitch black.
    I am taking help from the LG training manual.

    Regards!!

    Perform a logic board self test, unplug LVDS and power supply cable from main board and short 2 pads on the logic board named EXT_AUTO_GEN, the TV should come on and display test patterns. Without main board plugged the TV powers itself on, then if it runs fine, there is your problem, if not, you need to measure VSUS, VA, VSCN, -VY, ZBIAS and see if they match the panel sticker.

        Trying to Save - LG 60PH6700 60-inch plasma HDTV - Powers ON but no picture
        by KYBOSH
        Saved this beast from the landfill this weekend.
        Manfactured July 2013 in Mexico.

        I love working on plasma TVs.
        Its been a while but I was lucky enough to find 2 this week.

        The TV powers on and stays on but no picture. Havent checked for sound yet.
        No bulging caps although the insides are pretty dusty and the boards are discolored from many years of high heat.
        Will start troubleshooting tonight.

        RCA Virtuoso RHOS581SM-D Picture Fault
        by mmartell
        Picture looks stretched out and it looks like every other vertical line is not being drawn though hard to see that in the pics.

        I've disconnected each half of the panel and the fault remains exact save for the disconnected side being white.

        The original complaint was the tuner stopped working so the main was replaced however the new and old board exhibit the same picture defect.

        Nothing is getting hot and pushing on the panel drivers effects no change in the picture.

        So with that does anyone know how to enter the Service Menu on this...

        T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
        by Tr0ll
        Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

        The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

        Original T-con:
        Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

        First replacement T-con:

        I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

        SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
        by JJAAMM
        This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

        Problem
        TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

        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...
