SOURCE: No audio or video but LED blinks 5 times

Did take the same model board from other TV ,some different tv model is not compatible with tv's they differ make and model , you need same model board in order to work on your tv..

Certainly, I can help you. I would recommend going to the following link and getting the service manual so he can see first hand disassembly instructions and testing proceedures. Its only 10.99 and they email it to you shortly after purchase. The manual is a valuable resource as it will have part numbers in case you do need a new KD board. heres the link.

SOURCE: The red light in front was blinking.the repair man

Original problem was, It started flashing 2 blinks at a time. Did a search. It stated 2 blinks was possibly the d board. I replaced the d board with a new one. Same results. Called a tech in, he found that it was the power supply. I replaced the power supply and turned on the tv. The power light started blinking 6 times. Checked the plugs and found that the plug going over to the sc,su sd board wasnt plug in tight. Fastened it good and turned tv back on. The power light stayed on. But now I have sound but no picture. The right side of the screen comes on but very dim and only stays on for a split second.

SOURCE: red light blinks 7 timesd no picture or sound

Hello,

Thanks for your question!

A 7 light SoS on a Panasonic Vera indicated that 3 seprate PCB printed circuit boards have failed there pre power consumption inline test. Allot of people call this the 7 lights of death because of the extensive repair job that would need to be done to fix the unit, the cost.

We however are not there to examine the TV from our POV but the 3 PCB boards in the unit would refer to your issue today. Cost of repair is upwards of $600 bucks out the door with a 90 day parts warranty.

So its basically up to you from this stand point, most people would just purchase another television at this point.

So what you got here is a power failure on 3 different boards inside the TV.

I hope this information is helpful to you,

Thanks for using Fixya.com

Pansonic tv model TH50pz80u 1980 vira blinks 7 times

Your TV is blinking 7 times is because it is either it is the SC or the SU or the SD board has stopped working or a combination of all three here. . The heat dispersal system and the heat sink have quit working on your TV.

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

Tv shuts off intermittently on it own. Blinks 7 red led light on front. Sometimes will restart ok if I turn it off and back on manually. Plays a few minutes or a few hours then shuts off again.

The red light in front was blinking.the repair man said it was the power board.We replaced it , now the red light blinks 6 times then quits. There is no picture but when on you can here the sound.

A 6 blink SOS shutdown, you would want to be looking at the SC, SU and the SD boards. One of those boards is causing the malfunction. Possibly, but unlikly(I have to mention it for just in case reasons) the PDP panel could have blown those boards.

Just out of curiosity, what was the original problem that made you call the first repair guy?
