Re: TC-P50G20 8 blinks

I'm back unfortunately.

After about 15 hours of use, I heard a pop and then the dreaded 4 blinks. I think at this point I'm back to square one but I'm trying to figure out why the board failed again. Poor component replacement? Other extenuating circumstances? I'm stumped but I think I should remove the board and send it back in as I do have a 6 month warranty.

Any other thoughts?

The man, the LEGEND! If anyone can lead me in the right direction, you can! Thank you for responding.

I had this huge response typed but then then went back and checked all the ribbons. c10-c20 was not plugged in properly. I reseated the ribbon and boom, all is well.

Thank you for you help! I hope I dont have to post again about this TV but at least I know where to come!

I inherited this TV from my father who gave up trying to fix it after buying a supposedly good P and A board off eBay. I was getting 4 blinks before I tried the troubleshooting steps I found on this board.

Unplugged power from SC board and powered on TV. Puff of smoke from SC and then 8 blinks.

Unplugged power from the SS board and power on TV. 6 blinks.

Had the SC board refurbed through PTS Electronics. After I installed the SC board and powered on the TV, I am now getting 8 blinks. I went through the 2010_FHD_Plasma_TV_G20_G25_Series_Troubleshooting_Handbook...

Hello! I recently picked up a non working Panasonic TC-P50G20. No matter what I search this site is the first hit so I thought I'd sign up so I can ask a few questions. From everything I have read, this is a very friendly community and hope to fix this TV.

Thanks in advance!
