    Panasonic TC-P50ST30

    Hi folks, I am working on a Panasonic Tv and the SC board has shorted IGBT's (GT30F131) so I purchased a repair kit from Shopjimmy.com pn:Panasonic TXNSC1PHUU (TNPA5351) SC Board Component Repair Kit for TC-P50ST30. Got 20n60sfd TO 263AB as replacements for the GT30F131's.
    I replaced all defective components and after 10 Minutes the IGBT's blew again. I checked the buffer boards for shorts and didn't find any. Do you think the replacement IGBT's are Suitable?
    I have a set of 2PG003's and I am also wondering it they will work as these (GT30F131)IGBT's and other replacements are non existent any more. I mounted them standing up right but I thought I would ask your advise before I tried them out. I Never tried this before. Please see pics and let me know if they will work. Thanks in advance.

    Do NOT use these 2PG003 in place of SMD IGBTs, the solder pads works for cooling them, even if they could handle the current, they woudn't be able to sustain the heat and would fail very quickly.

    About the rest of the board, I have no experience on this model and do not know if this is part of the SC boards that have that stupid grounding screw that fails over time, but keep all the screws, screw holes, and screw pads clean.

      I agree with Biruslapio - These upright-mounted chips cannot dissipate heat and will fail very quickly.

      The metal-backed surface-mounted IGBTs will conduct heat to the SC board and the board helps cool the chips. The way you installed yours, they probably got extremely hot and failed right around the 10 minute mark as you said.

      If you need to upright-mount the ICs, you must provide a small heat sink for EACH one. and that heat sink must not contact the board or the rear case of the TV or else you may short everything out.

      Best solution is to re-install surface mounted ICs. and ensure your soldering is very good. dodgy soldering will lead to poor heat transfer and the ICs will fail shortly. I use a hot-air reflow station that heats the board from underneath and hot air from the top, along with lots of flux to flow the solder correctly.

      If you don't have hot-air rework station, an adjustable temperature heat gun will work well (400-450 degrees).

      Best of luck.

        30f131 have a rating of 360 volts 200 amps. The ones Shopjimmy.com sent you are 600 volt 20 amps. Contact them and ask them why they sent you such low rated parts.

          Hi again everyone, hope all is well. I really apologize for my delayed response and I thank you all for your responses. Anyway a long time has passed and I decided to take another look at this set to see if I can get it going (It has now become a little project). My question this time is.. Can I use DG302 igbts in place of the GT30F131(I came across about 10 of them from a few old boards)? Also after some more investigation I found Q661 (RJP63G4) also shorted any suggestions on a suitable replacement for this? I have extra DG302 can I use one of those as well in that location? Any further advice will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

              Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
              by Tynan Dill
              I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

              Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

              I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

              The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

              With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

              Assuming...

              Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
              Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

              Panasonic TX-P42UT30E, IGBTs on the SN board
              by rivetcity
              Hi,

              I'm having problems with my plasma Panasonic p42txu32e. The issue started about 12 months ago.

              I have a remote controlled main outlet so whenever I turn off the TV set at night, I also switch off the whole power outlet.
              It gives me a better feeling to know I don't have 230V on any cables, so my dog can't get hurt if he gets the idea to start chewing on something.

              About 12 months ago the TV started to have the following problem: when pressing anything on the RC to get it on, the red led would go off.

              Sometimes it would turn...

              Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock
              by sam_sam_sam
              I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

              This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

              After all of...

              Panasonic TC-P54VT25 No image. A or D board?
              by canadaboy25
              I have a Panasonic TC-P54VT25 that will power on and prime the display but there is no image at all.

              The panel is primed as there is a slight glow from the entire panel. This means the problem should be logic related. The service manual also confirms this and recommends replacing the A or the D board.

              I have tried to get the TV to display the test sequence but I have been unable to and I don't even know if this TV has a test sequence or not. I tried following tom66's instructions in post #3 on this thread https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=26790. There was...
