Pioneer PDP-5060HD 50 in. Plasma Television - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

No. It is somewhat skilled work. If you wish to get more details about Y-board replacement to Plasma displays, check this link.

check the aspect ratio in the picture settings.

This is a protection error indication and the TV needs attention by a qualified service technician.

Check your connections especially the yellow RCA connector. If it is a scart connection the video pin may be broken change out the lead for a new one

what made you think of the drive assemble was the problem

Un plug the power to the Plasma Screen and also to the Media Receiver for ten minutes. Disconnect the off the air antennas both A and B. After ten minutes plug in the plasma screen then the media receiver and turn on wi the remote control. You should now be back in operation. I was.
Also It may not be a bad digital tuner. The TV Guide feature is active even when the zip code is set to all 0s so if you have an over the air antenna attached the TV will look for the TV Guide info and if it can not find it because of a weak signal or the chanel it is tuned to does not carry that information the TV thinks that tuner does not work which triggers the 12 flashes. Also on power up the gray box with the waring message "Plasma Display Starting Up, Please Wait" appears and the screen is blank.

What you have done is change the input source. It will toggle through various modes like component, HDMI1, HDMI2, S-video etc., You should take a look behind the tv and see which input you have connected it into(usually HDMI 1 or HDMI2) then keep pressing the input button till it toggles back to that particular input.

Sai.

lenwas,
I have the exact same problem with the same model tv. It just stopped working, tv has no lights or evidence of power and the red standby light on the media center flashes without any other function potential.
I checked the internal tv fuse and it was measuring continuity.
If you figure anything out I'd be interested to hear it.

In order to receive the TV's Guide system, the cable should be connected directly to the TV instead of the cable box if you are still using it.
How do you have the cable box connected to the TV?

did you try pushing the input key on your remote it might change the screen if that don't work then try to go in to the settings in the remote

What about in the menu,,most the newer tvs have got were you can turn the speakers off,, or if there a digital dts plug on the back,, the menu could be switched to digital instead of analog,, good luck

Could be heat build up in the Plasma display unit. Make sure it has the correct space around it for proper ventilation. Also count the number of blinks on the power indicator it is a code for the reason the unit shut down. On the Pioneer PDP-5060HD I have I was getting 12 blinks on the indicator which indicated a tuner issue. Check your instruction book for info on the over heating problem if it continues. You may have a fan out.
