Re: Panasonic Viera G20 54in. W/ A Board From 50in?



Thanks! I may take a chance on this. Anyone else want to chime in?...

I need to replace an A Board on my Viera G20 54 inch Plasma and have been holding out for a decently priced part. A really good deal popped up in my area for the same set in the 50 inch model and I was thinking about buying it to harvest the part. The part numbers are very close and upon closer inspection the boards themselves look identical in every way. Does anyone know if the 50 inch board will work in the 54 inch television?

Thanks!

Thanks Capkid. There is another active thread for the exact same TV with nearly identical symptoms. The OP has replaced the Y-main, X-main, then control board and finally PSB with no change in behavior to the set. Hoping to pinpoint the problem before throwing parts at it. The thread has now gone completely cold.

I'm going to get my hands on a better MultiMeter and test the board again....

When I power the TV on I hear the standard double click, followed by a faint 'tic tic tic' noise from the PSB and then double click and power off. Nothing shows up on the screen. Red light on front of TV lights during power up attempt as well as the green light on the control board.

All boards appear to be very clean with no visual signs of trouble that I can find so far. Caps look great. Back of boards look good as well (haven't pulled out x main yet).

After doing some reading, tried powering up the TV without the Y and X main connected. Like many others, I got the...

This has not been an encouraging read. I have the same TV with a similar problem. Just starting the process of diagnosing it. Any updates?
