60in LG Plasma Tv Repair Has Sound and No Picture!

I am not a Tv repair man but this is how I fixed a 60" LG Plasma Tv Model # 60PZ550. The tv didnt show a picture on the screen or didnt have any sound but later after fixing it I found the internal speaker was turned off in the settings. I ended up changing most of the Transistors/Mosfets and the fuse. I did manage to change 1 IC chip but dont think I needed to. I will also say that a few days after the repair that I probly didnt do a very good job at soldering the IC chip and the tv started showing a bunch of lines on the screen and then went blank. So I rechecked my work and replaced the IC chip once more and also 1 mosfet that must have burned out from the IC chip that wasnt soldered great and then the Tv continued to work.

I've been searching KZbin for a video on how to ID MOSFETs that may be shorted to ground to fix my old 2010 Zenith LG Z50P J240 Plasma TV. Looks like I've found it! Thanks for making technical information understandable. I'm officially giving you an honorary teaching certificate for your simplistic teaching methods. After 40 years of teaching as an educator in public education, I think I can officially bestow this honor on you. Thanks for the information and continue using your knowledge to help others.

[@trumpwon9945]

You're not a TV repair man, you're a knowledgeable electronic technician with good all around troubleshooting skills. Several "TV repair men" here who don't have the skills to do component level repairs. As an I and E tech, we call them part changers. They'll keep throwing other people's money at the problem until it works. Great job! Thanks!

[@adamlegge4168]

Hi were did you get the kit from please

[@pbakai182]

Hey man! Thanks for the video, lots of good information. Thought I'd provide some pointers in soldering/desoldering for future repairs. For IC's you should always add a small amount of fresh leaded solder to the pins to make it 10 times easier and faster to remove with the hot air. Also, you should avoid cutting leads after soldering onto board. The leads should always be cut to size BEFORE soldering as cutting afterwards *could* cause a bad solder joint either immediately or in the future due to the force applied when cutting.

[@AveRage_Joe]

Awesome thanks for the tips and thanks for watching!🤘

Hi Joe, maybe is better to remove first the residual white thermal compound before to apply the arctic silver compound. The less of compound the best it works, the wide ammounts lose thermal efficiency. Congrats for your repair, enjoy this plasma!

i am among other things a tv repairman although i was out of that a long time ago. i was impressed by your troubleshooting solder rings are not uncommon on any part that gets hot and cold alot, and sometimes you have to look real close to see them as you have found out 80 to 95 % of troubleshooting is visual the creator in the board the legs were a capacitor should be the large ic with the missing middle fire marks on board fire marks on heat sink fiore marks anywhere but in the kitchen the large diameter hole in the motherboard and yes friend of mine actually had that a guy drilled a 1 1/2 inch hole through his xt case the 4 layer motherboard and the bottom of the case so he could install a light and yes he sent it in for warranty repair this stuff happens folks.

[@dj7226]

This video combined with another where the TV was fixed just by re-soldering most of the connections helped encourage me to try re-soldering the connections on my LG60PN6500 and saved me $200 for a replacement YSUS board. My only major mistake was using contact cleaner to remove the flux which left a white film everywhere. Lots of brushing with rubbing alcohol, a toothbrush and t-shirt scraps cleaned that up. One challenge I have as one who rarely does component repair is finding a good source for transistors, capacitors, resistors, etc. Maybe you could recommend some good sources? From one retired ANG E&E aircraft tech to another, thank you!

We have a non profit recycle outfit here, they only make runs every few months, I asked for the TVs, they said no, they must make sure they get recycled and not thrown in the landfill. If I fix it and resell it it won't, if they recycle it some of it will. People here make a living from fixing electronics, they feel fine stepping on our living.

Just picked up a 60 inch LG 60PV400 manufacture date 2011

[@AnsweringAtheism]

There is a really cool product called Chip-Kwik that makes desoldering IC's a snap. It is a small quantity of a solder-like alloy that transforms each joint into a low melting point amalgum. The slightest bit of heat melts it and the chips just slide off with no damage. When you want to install a new chip, you have to use solder wick to remove the amalgum, then put fresh solder on all the lands and solderwick that off too. If you don't do this dilution step the slightest heat will melt your new solder.

[@AveRage_Joe]

Hi, I have an issue. There is sound but no picture on an LG 50PT353K plasma TV. I have been told that this is a common fault with either the T-Con board (control board) or the Main PCB board? I noticed you repaired a different board? Any thoughts? Thanks

[@DrDanielHoward]

My then 2011 top of the range LG Plasma TV finally failed yesterday (nearly 13 years daily operation). I want to try to fix it. Here are the symptoms: about four days ago the TV just switched itself off. When I turned it on there was no screen. I tried to get it going but I could not. The red light near the switch would turn to blue and the noise of switching on was still there (and the noise of switching off). Then I switched the TV from the socket (from the plug) and waited say one hour. Then it would work but after a while switch itself off. Yesterday it worked all day and then suddenly at night it switched itself off. No effort at getting it to go back on gave results. I remember we switched it off for an hour from the socket (from the plug on the wall) and then it came back but only for 5 minutes and switched itself off. So we played some card games to pass the time last night. This morning at 7 am I went down and switched the plug and then it went on and I was watching TV as normal. Then after 5 minutes or so it cut out again and I could not bring it back. What do you think is the problem?

[@chrsrodrigez5565]

My 12 years LG LF 37 fullHD had last week a problem in the inverter(..had no picture..no sound..i dont have the skills so i send her to a repair store..he told me he changed the capacitors and some other stuff..now its working again..i paid 40 euros to him to repair the tv..i suppose he took me reasonable money in order to fix the tv..so iam happy..i wish i had the skills to fix her by myselfe but i dont..so iam ok with it..

[@LeslieIsgrigg]

Hey Joe, you should try eu·tec·tic /yo͞oˈtektik/ solder for your repairs. This is an electronic rosin core solder, it's TRUE claim to fame is no solder 'plastic' state. A 60/40 soldier has a period between solid and melted, known as the 'plastic' state. The more metal in the connection, the longer the solder may stay in the plastic state. This can be frustrating and often results in a dull connection, or one that looks like a bead on a pin (convex). A good solder connection should be shiny and have a concave curve from pin to the pad, more solder is NOT better. Eutectic solder is 63 / 37, and when hot enough goes directly from solid to a liquid state WITHOUT entering a plastic state. Provides a more consistent and reliable connection, with fewer browning of the PCB material from prolonged contact with the iron. Just thought you might check it out, if your not using it currently. 🤓💭👍

Ive heard about that before but never looked into it. Ill have to check it out for sure!🤓👍

[@kevins5016]

Respect.

[@Jimmeh_B]

YO JOE!! Dude... some pointers (IF you want them and in case you don't know!!!) Generally, Plasma Tv's don't actually have MOSFETS on the driver boards. As a general rule mostly they're not transistors at all and are actually two way (three pin) rectifier diodes for the various power supplies on the sustain boards. Also, the ones that are transistors are generally IGBT type so when testing you need to treat them more like BJT's then MOSFETS. (might clear up some strange readings) It's best to lift one leg of the fuse to test it out of circuit. The reason they're "lying" to you is the tank capacitors at the start of the board. The meter will bleeep for as long as it takes for the meter to charge the tank caps up to the same potential as the meter's "measurement voltage", then the current stops flowing and the "continuity" is no more! AWESOME VIJAYOH brother!!! The more people start repairing things at a board level (since the repair industry has been pushed out by the chinese pumping out shitty electronics that are cheap and don't last) the LESS CHEAP SHIT ELECTRONICS ends up in land fill. Program Rant; Uses NoProfanity, CommonSense; var purchaser, brandname : String; TVworks : Boolean; begin If purchaser = "buy cheap from china!!" and if brandname = "cheapest available parts from one hung low market" then while TVworks = 'true' purchaser = "be happy, enjoy!" else if TVworks = 'false' then purchaser = "MUST HAVE REPAIRED" or "MUST REPAIR THEMSELVES" else purchaser = "pay's HEAVY taxes for the disposal of CHEAP E WASTE" end; end.

[@AveRage_Joe]

Awesome! Love learning new stuff! Thanks Man!!!! I remember seeing IGBT when looking up parts but then for some reason transistor or mosfet stuck in the brain lol. I figured thats why the fuse was doing that cause it only did the noise after turning the tv on then off again. Thanks for the help Man!!!👍👍👍

Thanks for watching! I cant say for sure but Id pull the back panel if you have time and poke around. Plasma tvs can be tricky or overwelming since all the boards but the repair could be as simple as a loose cable or loose ground screw on a board.

Great Video. Inspired me to try to fix my LG50PT350. Looks to have almost Identical Boards. The Symptom is that it Clicks to come on and stays on and energized. No Click back off like the one in your video. The Main symptom visually is the screen attempts to light up but all RED. Then it goes blank again. It repeats the red screen then blank over and over. You can power it off with the button to stop this behavior. Turn it back on does the same thing again. Do you have any insight into this?

You could save some time by counting the blinking lights that tell you the troubleshooting code

I have this exact same thing. I have sound but no picture. I replaced the main power board ( ordered from Amazon one year ago), it worked except for the HDMI ports, now one year later, no picture, but it has sound. I'm giving up on it soon.

Check out the parts I changed, could be the issue with your tv.

[@jcbuds8124]

I have the exact tv with almost the exact problem only mine had beautiful sound with no picture

[@jcbuds8124]

Also thank you for making this so very clear and easy to understand. You'd make a great instructor.

[@AveRage_Joe]

Thanks! I found out later my sound was on external speakers so had no sound at first!

I have an LG 60PV250 ONCE I TURN TV ON I SEE A SMALL FLASH ON RIGHT SIDE OF SCREEN, THERE IS SOUND BUT NO PICTURE.

Best way to remove through hole components is to cut the leads flush on the top side of the board. From bottom side you only need to heat and pull the leads with a pair of tweezers.

Love that! Thanks for the tip!!🤘

Awesome video man, I have the same TV, I replaced a faulty powerboard but apparently my main board is also faulty. Got any tips on main board repairs? Or places to get a replacement?

[@AveRage_Joe]

Sorry for late reply, I would search on internet the model number of the board and add repair kit. Thats how I usually do it!

[@spencerjung4483]

Great Video! But would been cheaper to just buy another power board?

[@AveRage_Joe]

Thanks! Repair kits can be as cheap or less then $20. If you could find another board for under $100 that would be a win or possibly another tv to take the board from. I like to take things apart and try to do the repair myself as there is more value in it for me. Others just want there tv fixed and I can understand that!👍

So my TV was having this problem where it wouldn't turn on like yours. So I tried testing the heat since mosfets or whatever they are, and it threw a spark, now it doesn't want to turn on at all. What did I do wrong? What setting is my multimeter supposed to be on? I had it on DC

[@thereason3763]

Thanks for the videos. I have a 60 in LG plasma 60PA6550. I had no picture with sound, I replaced the YSUS board with a used one. It worked for about 5 minutes, everything was perfect! Then it randomly lost picture, and turned off...... Since then I have turned it on with different results. Sometimes itll be perfect for 20 seconds then lose picture, sometimes it will just flash at the bottom of the screen real fast right when i turn it on, and no picture...... Any ideas?

[@TheLarryBrown]

You have not yet found your intermittent problem. You replaced a board that was not bad, and then just got lucky the T V started, sometimes it will, sometimes it won't, and it just did when you started it after replacing that board.

[@MultiKokonutz]

I had a Samsung 60" blow a few FETs on the y-sus board a few years ago. Thankfully plasmas are very repairable once they fail

[@AveRage_Joe]

Yeah they seem to be a little easier then I remember. Not all but many!
