While watching a movie, the picture just went black. Head a click as if it turned off and nothing. Sound was still there but no picture. Does anyone know what the part # is and the board that would need to be replaced to fix this problem? I'd rather try to fix it myself and try to save a few bucks. Location of part for purchase would also be helpful.
I would rather try that first instead of paying these over-priced techs that know they can fix it for a REASONABLE price but ellect to overcharge. This is the exact cause of all of these products to be disposable instead of fixing them. If I knew how to fix this stuff, I'd do it for a flat REASONABLE fee and be sure to lock down a ton of business. It's better to have 100 customers at $50 ea. than 25 customers at $200 ea. and less that would be interested because of the prices.
This is a common problem on these plasma TV's. The problem resides inthe high voltage boards known as the X and Y Sustain boards.. You canpurchase them here for a very reasonable price:

The above link is to a Y-SUS board. The X-Sus board is often the 2nd cause of failure and can be found here:

Totest which board is failing, you need to check voltage input to theYSUS board first... Input should be 120V from Power supply, outputshould be above 250V.. Do this test with XSUS disconnected. IF 250+Vexists, then XSUS is damaged. If not, then the YSUS is the faulty part.
