Re: Sanyo DP50747 50" Plasma issues

Still no parts, local shop doen't have the correct sizes in stock, so I will not have any better pictures or video of what the issue looks like until I can get some ordered online. Are there any brands that are recommended when I do order them, or does it not make much of a difference? I had originally planned on getting whatever I could get locally, but since the internet offers a nearly limitless variety, I might as well get some that are reliable.

Attached are a few pictures of the internals of the tv in the event that they...

Re: Sanyo DP50747 50" Plasma issues

I think random noise would be a good description. It looked like there were pixels that retained the image that was being seen for a short time after I brought up the OSD. Sections of the blue stayed the color they were, and itlookedlike abunch of tiny bar graphs that were shrinking. Its definitely not easytodescribe, so sometime Monday night (probably late, once the kids are in bed) I'll be abletoreplace the bad capacitors, and assuming I haven't fried the power supply board or myself by then, I'll get better pictures and videos uploade...

Re: Sanyo DP50747 50" Plasma issues

I'll try and get a couple pictures of whats going on that are decent quality. I've got the power supply board out and the capacitors removed, waiting until payday to get replacements and put them in.

Also, I did try to get a video of what was going on. Uploaded it here [URL="http://youtu.be/T5NU_JOnh60"]http://youtu.be/T5NU_JOnh60[/URL]

If my understanding is correct,it is a Samsung panel (based on a big Samsung sticker inside the tv) and the power supply unit is indeed a Samsung LJ44-00132A. The set...

Re: Sanyo DP50747 50" Plasma issues

Thank you for the confirmation, wanted to be sure I was understanding correctly prior to making the trip to get replacements.I'll update with a bit more info once I get them replaced.

Am Iunderstanding right that the bad capacitors could result in poor picture quality as wellas the power issue, or is it more likely that they are two different issues? Either way, I know it is a one step at a time process, mostly just curious.

First off, thank you to anyone and everyone who is able to help me out.

I have recently been given a free (yay) 50" Sanyo DP50747 plasmatv that has a few issues, which I've been scouring to find information on, and I have made some slight headway on resolving the issues, though I am no where near done with this beast.

First off, a list off things the tv does that seem abnormal.[LIST][*]Powers off a few times before staying on for irregular lengths of time[*]Image has what seemtobe called sparklies, of no particular color.I describe it more as a snowy looking...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Stopping by to say hello to everyone. Found the forum searching out information relating to a plasma tv that was given to me, and for a few days now I've been sponging up an amazing amount of information relating to the inner workings of my set. I've not gotten far into my diagnostics of the device aside from starting to check voltages, but I wouldn't have even known where to start had I not found everyone here. A big thanks so far and hopefully I will eventually be able to help someone out with an issue they are having.
