-. You can sound SMPS relay
* If you can’t sound, check the STB_5V appear
-. Logic B’d LED on
* If Logic B’d LED doen’t on
-> Check Logic B’d LED on, when 24p power cable is not
connected.
-. Picture on or display the banner
* If display is nothing, check the LVDS cable
And LVDS clk/data line

59. Inform to change the Assembly Inform about error messages
-. Check the Side-Lable Ver. in set (important)
-. Order to the item with Side-Lable Ver.
-. If you change the item, see the service-bulletin
for setting the factory option.
Inform about error messages
-. If set is connected internet and software is old version , popup
below message.
“ version XXXXX is available, upgrade?”
-. And select OK, you can update your PDP TV.

60. V. Trouble Shooting A) Power Trouble Shooting
Power part is composed of power board and main board(small power)
Check connectors between power board and main board
Check main board power output on the board
When you check main board power(small power IC), There are two types of
power IC. One is PWM type, another is regulator type. PWM type should
check after inductor. Regulator type should check on the output pin.
Check each Voltage output
Check After Inductor
Check On Pin 1
