Clicking noise is usually produced by a shorted load or overloaded SMPS (power supply), black screen as you had mentioned may contribute to a short circuited load.Check voltages (secondary) might be pulsing from high to low that sync the clicking sound.Checking load resistance through filter capacitor will help a lot then try isolating circuit branches to localize the shorted or leaky parts.Try isolating(one at a time) the power supply's loads may help a lot.

SOURCE: sanyo dp42746 low volt power problems

The power supply is failing, or there is another circuit area that is pulling too much current, and the supply is going in to protect mode.

This would require proper troubleshooting by an experienced tech. If the problem is very involved, or the tech is not familiar with the set, he will require the service manuals and service information.

SOURCE: dead relay(?) on dp42746 is this common.

Ok Fellas I found the Problem!
The Problem is the V4 Y-Main Board. This board is located on the left side of the case looking upright from the back. I spoke with may suppliers, and Sanyo all confirming this. Apparently it has been an issue for some time. Sanyo has replaced the V4 Y Main board with a W1 Y main board in newer models. The W1 Board is NOT compatible for us tho. Just to be sure... If your T.V is taken apart (like mine) Disconnect the peripheral cable from the V4 Y Main, and turn on the set. I bet it will power up with audio and channel function just NO picture. When you plug the board back in... POOF set shuts down. Replacement boards are VERY hard to come by. So Happy Hunting!

Oh yeah.. just FYI, Sanyo, Phillips, and Samsung all use the same parts. Hopefully that will help your searching.

SOURCE: screen went black on my 42" sanyo model dp42647 lcd

Hi there! The panel may be in protection mode. The Inverter board is the most logical area to start after checking power supply Voltages.(5,6,24 and 13Volts). There may be coils on the Inverter Board which have bad soldering or faulty. Other than this it may be main board which controls switch on or off. If all else fails, refer to a repairer. Beware of High Current!!! Best Wishes and Good Luck, Jus004

to test all y sub boards remove the main power connection to the y main and turn the tv on if it powers on one of those boards are bad.. remove both sub boards. and plug in the y main. if it powers on then that board is good either, put your multimeter on 2k omh and test the upper ysub boards black connector, the top 2 pins with negative to the 5th pin positive. you should read 500-1k ohm if its way under 100 there is a short.

the bottom ysub board place the multimeters black probe on the bottom 2 pins of the black power conection and the red on the 4th pin.. results are the same.

low resistance means theres a short in the board.

Power comes on but screen stays black

Hi Aaron,

Have you checked your connections? This is the first thing you must check. Audio video cables or coaxial cables can short out which could cause the issue. Is this a brand new tv setup or some recent issue.

Sanyo Vizon 42" Plasma DP42746 Was using tv when I heard a click and I lost all audio and video, could not change the channel or adjust volume. Tried unplugging and sitting for 10 minutes. Plugged back...

This is a common problem with these TVs. You can download the official Sanyo repair manual for this TV (DP42746) at http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/43343/sanyo_dp42746.html. I uploaded it here when I had the same issue with my TV last year. The solution is almost always to replace the Power Board (Y-Main) and the Upper and Lower Y Buffers. The parts and costs (from Sanyo in July 2009) are listed below (NOTE: Sanyo will not ship these parts to anyone but a repair shop): 1. V4 Y-Main (Y-Sustain) Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01200A, Alt Part # LJ41-02759A) - USD $139.00
2. Upper Y-Buffer Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01202A, Alt Part # LJ41-02760) - USD $64.00
3. Lower Y-Buffer Circuit Board (Part # LJ92-01203A, Alt Part # LJ41-02761A) - USD $64.00
Sanyo charges USD $10.50 for shipping, which brings the total cost for parts to USD $277.50. From my research, a shop would probably charge between USD $500 and $700 to do this repair. FYI - there is a class action lawsuit pending against Sanyo for this issue. The V4 Y-Main (Y-Sustain) Circuit Boards fail VERY frequently in this TV due to overheating. Hope this helps.

Power light comes on but no picture. Black screen

if the set appears dead ecept for the power light, unplug the power cord from the back of the set, wait two minutes, then plug it back in and try to turn on the tv. Doing this worked for me.

Black screen on my sanyo

Call Sanyo. The 800 number is on your remote. Insist on talking to a supervisor and you may get somewhere. I had to do this and Sanyo called today to tell me to take my tv to the shop. They are paying for parts and I have to pay labor to get it fixed. Repair shop said $35.00 to look at the set and if it's just to boards that need to be replaced, it wouldn't be too expensive. We'll see.

Sanyo told me they haven't gotten many complaints on this tv, DP42746, 42" Plasma. You guys have to call them and complain.

Sanyo DP42746 42 in. plasma TV

Well I have the same problem with green light and no sound and no pix. After i opened it all up i checked the main power supply board and found all fuses good and the 12vdc side of the board dead. My best guess is this power board has many problems. All the driver boards for the screen are located on the perimiter of the screen. If you loose part of the power supply board you will loose part of functions of the tv. At this time i am looking to replace the entire power board. Will let you know the location and fix soon as i find it. jim [email protected]

Problem is on the Y sustain pwb, to the left of the power supply. To varify, unplug the connector from the power supply going to the y sus. The set should then start up, and you'll have audio. Call sanyo at 1- 800-877-5036 for parts. Or www.shopjimmy.com for used circuits at a discount price.
