    Great video! I'd never thought in a million years I could repair a 10 year old plasma TV. I had the same problem as described here AND the same model number which made it seem very doable. Nice step by step instruction on how to identify the problem. For me, it turned out to be an issue with the X panel. Found a replacement on eBay for $22 and swapped it out. The trickiest part was figuring out how the connectors worked. Thanks Farm Dad!

    Thank you so much for posting this video!!! I've had my Samsung for 10 years, and the picture is still great, but a couple of months ago, the clicking started and I thought I was going to have to throw it away. Thinking I had no other option but to buy a new TV, I took a trip to Best Buy.... oh my gosh, the new TVs with high refresh rates are so expensive!! I was so happy when I came across this video. I found the board I needed on Ebay, plugged it in last night, and it worked like a charm. I have a great TV for $26. Thank you Farm Dad!

But yesterday I've decided try to fix it, and WOW - your video helped me, honestly, I don't know how :) I just follow your instruction, remove and insert back all cables and boom: TV is working now:)
    Appreciate it! With love from Russia :)

    Thanks again for posting brother! In my case, as soon as I plug in the main board, the click is there, so I don't get to test the logic controller or the Y or X boards. So that said, I never hear the chime that's on your video. So my assumption is that main board is bad. Does that sound right to you? Thanks for your help!

    Great Video Farm Dad, glad I found it. Looking at other videos thought I had to change the power board, but you went thru a great process of checking each board.
    Found out my TV clicking issues is the same board that needs to be replaced as your issue. Question though how do I disconnect wide white band of wires that goes to
    the logic control board from the Y-main board. Thanks

    I realize video is 3 years old but when you had an issue, did the red "power" light blink twice in a row a few times then go steady, then repeat the process? I am having that issue with my 60" Samsung plasma. Some other videos say it is the power board. Before I order another (as they are all used these days), I wanted to see if you had the same blinking light issue. If you did, I will have to do some more testing like you did, to confirm which board is bad. Thank you

    My then 2011 top of the range LG Plasma TV finally failed yesterday (nearly 13 years daily operation). I want to try to fix it. Here are the symptoms: about four days ago the TV just switched itself off. When I turned it on there was no screen. I tried to get it going but I could not. The red light near the switch would turn to blue and the noise of switching on was still there (and the noise of switching off). Then I switched the TV from the socket (from the plug) and waited say one hour. Then it would work but after a while switch itself off. Yesterday it worked all day and then suddenly at night it switched itself off. No effort at getting it to go back on gave results. I remember we switched it off for an hour from the socket (from the plug on the wall) and then it came back but only for 5 minutes and switched itself off. So we played some card games to pass the time last night. This morning at 7 am I went down and switched the plug and then it went on and I was watching TV as normal. Then after 5 minutes or so it cut out again and I could not bring it back. What do you think is the problem?
