Dark screen?
Check DC and signal video levels at CN23 & CN 1.
Normal Voltages with TV ON, any input
CN23/pin 1 = 55Vdc
CN23/pin 3 = 5Vdc
CN23/pin 8-10 = 78Vdc (32") or 82Vdc (42")
CN1/pins 13 & 15 (gray wires) = 1Vp-p @ 30MHz
If these input voltages/signals are OK, the plasma
panel is suspect. CN1 is on the plasma panel below
the Power Supply board.
