Re: Panasonic Plasma has 7 sos flashes and went pop

i would like to maybe do some testing of the sc board etc and buffers as mentioned, i work with mains voltage as a sparky and do have an interest in electronics but lack majorly in knowledge

Re: Panasonic Plasma has 7 sos flashes and went pop

i was wearing a coat with wooden ties to fasten it, wonder if screens rested on one, all i can think of.
its a bit of a dilemma really, i know tv's arnt expensive second hand and could probable get a near identical tv for £250, which will be worn and could break anytime.
on the other hand ive still got alot of tv left in my panny so to speak, might be better replacing the screen next month if poss and maybe picking up some cheap replacement boards as a reserve.

Re: Panasonic Plasma has 7 sos flashes and went pop

nice find, i couldnt find one all day. does sounds odd for like you say a lot more hassle.
i found a Tx-p50g10b aswell complete set with seven flashing lights for £70 an hours drive away, wonder if anyparts would match. ive tried the link to the service books but doesnt cover my model

Re: Panasonic Plasma has 7 sos flashes and went pop

i might store it to one side for now incase a panel comes up, do any other panasonic panels fit do you know ?

Re: Panasonic Plasma has 7 sos flashes and went pop

thanks alastair, i still cant believe its cracked, came down this morning to take it all appart and noticed so it does kinda make it bin fodder, shame as chances of getting a panel cheap and remedying any other defects is unlikely i guess. can screens break themselves? i know it sounds ridiculous but ive always been careful

hi all, ive been looking around here and think this is the place to be for the vast amounts of knowledge kindly available.

i own a panasonic plasma tx p50st31b bought at least four years ago with a date stamp of 03/2011 inside the rear panel.

it has been very reliable uptill now :-(

im currently getting 7 red flashes off the sos. i disconnected the two connectors for the sc panel and i was presented with 8 red flashes, i then re attached the two connectors to receive 7 flashes once more.

the tv died during using kodi via pc hdmi etc....
