Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Thanks for chipping in, but I'm ready to give up on this one. It's an 8 year old set, and as much fun as it was to try these repairs I'm done throwing $ and parts at it. Knowing my luck the next board is gonna fail in a week or two and I'll just be running circles around it.
I'll see if I can get $50 for it as a parts TV!

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Just wanted to say thanks again for all of the help on this.
I'm going to return these parts and see if I can sell the TV for parts.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Quick update, not sure if it matters at this point though.
I undid all of the repairs I've done on this TV as I'm going to return the parts I bought.
I also wanted to see what the original problem was, and see if I was even on the right path.
So, the photo on my first post shows the results of a new YSUS and both YDRV/Buffers.
With the old YSUS and old buffers I'm seeing a black/white image that flickers.
Audio works.
I have it laying down so I can't really get a idea of full screen image, just the...

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Ok, no problem. I should be able to return the parts I've purchased and only be out the shipping costs.
At least I learned a lot!!
On a side note, do you have a brand or model that you strongly recommend when purchasing a used TV?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Sorry to keep bumping, just looking for opinions on whether I should call it quits with this TV or attempt anything else.
I appreciate any ideas/thoughts!

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Any other thoughts here? I'm hesitant but ready to give up unless there is anything else I can try!
Thanks so much for all of the help so far, I've learned so much!

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
The ebay seller is going to let me return the YSUS.
He did not have any others to do an exchange, so I'll be getting my $ back minus shipping.
Would you recommend that I try another YSUS? Or just move on?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Well that's a bummer.
Sounds like I should go ahead and throw in the towel, try to minimize the cost damage.
Unless you have any other ideas?
The first folks to reply in this thread mention the control board, are you still feeling like that is not an issue here?
I'd really like to get this working, but if it's just gonna be running in circles and spending $, then maybe it's time to bail.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
How would you know there are vertical lines if there is nothing visible on screen?
I'm definitely seeing vertical lines, pink hue, and the split screen.
I'll go ahead and contact the ebay seller about returning or exchanging the YSUS.
Any thoughts on what's causing the split screen or pink? Are they related?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Unfortunately no I don't. Didn't even think about it until after I saw the lines and pink hahaa.
I do have the old board though. Would it be worth my time to put it back in?
On the same note, what would I be seeing if the buffers were bad?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Well it is no longer an issue with this new YSUS board. From my understanding the ZSUS is related to backlight issues.
The screen was always "lit" up, it was lacking color would be a better description.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
I'm not sure what you're asking.
I was getting a black screen, could very faintly see the image, with black spots all over.
Replaced YSUS with part from ebay, which resulted in the image you see in the original picture.
I assumed it was buffers, as they are recommended to be replaced as well, but after installing the new buffers there is no noticeable change.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Seeing as I just bought a YSUS off of ebay, would you recommend that I return it and get another one?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Been messing with it more, nothing makes any difference other than the down.
The lines, split screen, and pink are still present and don't really change when making adjustments.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Nothing very noticable, definitely not "fixed".
When adjusting the down, I could get some sparklies to show up. That's about all I could notice.

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
Also, should I be making these adjustments while the set is powered on, or off?

Re: LG 50PC3D Issue
I see them, and marked them.
How much adjustment should I be trying?
Baby steps? Quarter turn? Half turn?
What should I expect from up or down?

Not sure what else I can test, let me know if you have any other ideas.
