 |
|
Panasonic TC-P50C2 just shut off while watching. No light blinks or nothing. Dead. I have taken the back off and looked at the power supply. I don't see bulging caps. I am going to run a continuity test on the fuses. The power board number is MPF6904A. I have a multimeter and soldering iron. I may just order a new board but, I'd like to find the service manual and possibly repair this one as a spare. Is it likely just the caps? I could just replace them all. They should be marked with values.
Also at diffferent times the HDMI ports ceased working. I got around this by just using the component connection. Still gives HD. Is it possible it could be that board causing no power? Set is 2 or 3 yrs old. |

| Thank you very much JTS1957! No I do not hear any relays click. The TV is my Dads so I will have to go over there tomorrow (Monday) and check that voltage. I did look up that board on shopjimmy but, I'm glad I posted before ordering. I want to make sure it's bad before I order a new one. |

| Update: I checked pin 5 and it only went to 0.02 do volts. I did verify 120 volts on the P board at the A/C connector. Looks like it's labeled P9. Fuses checked good. Bad power board? |

Check edits in my prior post ...
Is there 5VDC at pin 1 of connector A7 at plug in?
YES= Replace A board
NO= Replace P board |

When I plug it in or, when I push the power button? I did check pin 1 of connector P7 on the power board and 5VDC was there. You want me to check pin 1 on the A board (the one with HDMI and component connections) correct? |

"Plug it in"
P="Power"
A="Input"
I don't understand why troubleshooting tree states it as I posted. I would have done it in reverse.
They want to see if standby 5 volts (made by P board) reaches A board to have a chance at providing standby 3.3VDC (BOTH ends of the harness should have 5Volts - which means they also have a error in the stated voltage?) |

| I have 4.96 VDC at pin 1 of connector A7. I also have 4.96 at pin 1 of P7 which stands to reason because there is a wire connecting the two points. The 4.96 is traveling over that wire. |

| Why nothing at pin 5 of connector P7 when I push the power button? That wouldn't indicate a bad P board? Is this tree in the service manual? All I see for no power with no red light is check fuses |

| There must be a test that confirms whether the power board is good or bad |
