Re: Panasonic TC-P60S30 with 7 blinks

I went through the slides starting on 87 and got the same result every time through slide 92. The TV did the exact same

thing as it does when everything is hooked up normally. I get a couple clicks when the tv gets power, you press the power

button and the red light comes on for a couple seconds, then it goes back to flashing 7 times.

Having no smoking gun there I decided to start at the top (so to speak) and went to slide 70 related to 7 blinking lights.

I get to the first test...

Ok, so here is the picture of the blown piece on the board. Seems like there are other areas close buy that are burned as well. I will report back with additional details as soon as I finish testing....

Re: Panasonic TC-P60S30 with 7 blinks

I will get a picture for you. You mention buffers? What are those? Are they on a board that I may be replacing or something else.

Can you help me with questions before I get home and do the test starting at slide 87.
- Am I using the right setting on the multimeter with it set to 2K?
- When I conduct this test I remove the connections and then turn it on and the display should be 'completely black'. . . does that mean that it looks like it is just off? I guess I don't know what I am looking for here? On page 88...

So I got the 7 blinks after a loud pop on my TV. I did some searching on the internet and got here. Upon inspection of the back of the TV I could visibly see that the SC board had a blown piece. Not sure what it is but it is a small black square and it looks like it has two pieces and they blew and are separated. Ordered a new SC board from Shop Jimmy but when I installed the board I still get the 7 blinks. I did more digging and found the attached guide. I started on slide 50 to check the VSUS, VDA and P15V. When I have my multimeter set to 2K and the reading comes back at 1.00 for all three...
