    Panasonic plasma A boards/Kuro media box repair.

    Hi all.

    I have 2 Panasonic plasma A boards for ST50 50"/65" and Kuro KRP 500A media box which needs repair.
    I'm not good enough at component repair so I need some help.
    A boards and especially Kuro media box is still very valuable and I can't throw it away like some average Joe,lol

    I'm from Europe/Slovakia and I'm searching for someone who is willing to repair these things or some tips at least.

    Both A boards have HDMI issue either no signal or flickering.
    And media box possibly with voltage regulator issue which is common fault.

    Panasonic plasma ST50 A boards/Kuro KRP 500A media box repair.

    Anyone?

    I know that this forum is mostly US,but there are still guys from Europe,right?
    Regular service centres/technicians reject plasmas,but there still must be someone who can repair these boards EZ.
    While I have other TVs,I just can't throw these 2 away so atleast some tips would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

      Hi Erik,
      I've been going to this forum for years but haven't signed up yet.
      I read your message and decided to answer you.

      Meanwhile let me introduce myself, I'm an electronic technician with almost 40 years of experience in the repair and design of electronic equipment, I write and live in Italy so we are not too far away!

      What you are asking is not simple, the Panasonic plasma boards you mentioned are 10 years old and spare parts are not easy to find, moreover they are very complex boards...

      I have a personal Panasonic TX-P50VT50T in my house, if you want I can try to repair your boards, are you sure the main board "A" is faulty?

        @stecos

        Sorry for the late reply I tried to find help elsewhere and almost forgot about this post. lol
        Yes they're faulty A boards with not working HDMI inputs either no signal or flickering.
        Everything else TV/menus and possibly non HDMI inputs works perfectly.
        And they were tested on perfectly working ST50 50/65 to isolate the issue.
        I'm TV enthusiast and know a lot about plasmas,but I'm just not that good with component repair and it probably need some advanced soldering station anyway.
        I would be grateful if you could help me,advanced technicians are so rare these days.
        Check your PM for my email.
        Thanks.

            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...

            Three 820-01700 32GB Logic Boards Same Issue: Won't Wake From Hibernate
            by ugamazing
            I have three identical-spec 820-01700 boards (2.6/32/512), and ALL THREE boards came to us with the same fault, from different sources: The boards don't wake from hibernation with the keyboard or lid, they ONLY wake when you press the power button. I understand this is a very minor issue, but the boards must be fixed!

            We will of course begin with the obvious (checking lid signals), but I couldn't help but notice these three boards were all 32GB variants. Has anyone noticed an issue relating to these 32GB boards in particular? I of course don't think it's a RAM issue, but it's bizarre...

            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 Plasma TH-50PZ85U No screen No blinks on red power light
            by Alicat
            Hello,

            Stopped by this site trying to fix my parents Panasonic Plasma TV.

            Model number is TH-50PZ85U

            Power comes on and the red power light stays on solid.

            Did a few checks like hold the power button on for 60 seconds, hold the - Volume while holding the menu button, no luck, still@ blank grey screen as the screen lights up very vague.

            I also hear a few clicks.

            I also think my parents said there was a thunderstorm and the TV failed after that.

            Section 6 in the service manual talks about power and no screen,...

            Panasonic P42S30 Plasma - Pink sparkles
            by Lintesir
            My parents' Panasonic P42S30 died recently, and they asked me to have a look at it. I was able to identify the SN-board as the culprit, as it was shorted. After removing Q401, Q402, Q421 and Q422 the short was gone, so I replaced these components and that got the TV working again. However, when testing the tv a bit, I noticed quite bad pinkish sparkles on some colors. For instance the greyish bar on this forum seems to trigger it quite badly. I made a fullscreen test picture with only that color, with the below result.

            There is about a 5cm high region at the top without any sparkles,...
