Re: PN60F8500 Bad Power Board Shutting Off

would it actually turn on if the solder was failing?

I purchased a PN64F8500 used with an issue where it would not turn on and replaced three caps on the Y-Board and it was fixed and been working ever since.

Few months later I see a PN60F8500 for sale on CL with a note saying it does not work, so figure the same easy fix and I'll have a new TV.

The issue is slightly different, the TV will power on but after around 5 minutes or so it will power itself off and not turn back on.

After opening up the back I notice the boards are completely different and those three caps from the 64 inch do not even exist...
