IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The information in this training manual is intended for use by persons possessing an adequate
background in electrical equipment, electronic devices, and mechanical systems. In any attempt
to repair a major Product, personal injury and property damage can result. The manufacturer or
seller maintains no liability for the interpretation of this information, nor can it assume any
liability in conjunction with its use. When servicing this product, under no circumstances should
the original design be modified or altered without permission from LG Electronics. Unauthorized
modifications will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage or user injury. If
wires, screws, clips, straps, nuts, or washers used to complete a ground path are removed for
service, they must be returned to their original positions and properly fastened.
CAUTION
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury, disconnect the power before servicing this product. If electrical power
is required for diagnosis or test purposes, disconnect the power immediately after performing
the necessary checks. Also be aware that many household products present a weight hazard. At
least two people should be involved in the installation or servicing of such devices. Failure to
consider the weight of an product could result in physical injury.
Preliminary Matters (The Fine Print)
Preliminary Matters (The Fine Print)
5January 2009 Plasma 42PQ20
Today’s sophisticated electronics are electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive. ESD can weaken or damage
the electronics in a manner that renders them inoperative or reduces the time until their next failure.
Connect an ESD wrist strap to a ground connection point or unpainted metal in the product. Alternatively,
you can touch your finger repeatedly to a ground connection point or unpainted metal in the product. Before
removing a replacement part from its package, touch the anti-static bag to a ground connection point or
unpainted metal in the product. Handle the electronic control assembly by its edges only. When
repackaging a failed electronic control assembly in an anti-static bag, observe these same precautions.
REGULATORY INFORMATION
REGULATORY INFORMATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy, and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate
the receiving antenna; Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver; Connect the
equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than that to which the receiver is connected; or consult the
dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Safety and Handling Regulations
1. Approximately 20 minute pre-run time is required before any adjustments are performed.
2. Refer to the Voltage Sticker on the Switch Mode Power Supply silk screening. (+/- ½ volt).
3. Be cautious of electric shock from the Backlight section, it uses high voltage AC. Check that
the Power Supply and Drive Circuits are completely discharged because of residual current
stored before Circuit Board removal.
4. C-MOS circuits are sensitive to static electricity.
Use caution when dealing with these IC and circuits.
5. Exercise care when making voltage and waveform checks to prevent costly short circuits
from damaging the unit.
6. Be cautious of lost screws and other metal objects to prevent a possible short in the
circuitry.
1. Check the appearance of the Replacement Panel and Circuit Boards for both physical damage
and part number accuracy.
2. Check the model label. Verify model names and board model matches.
3. Check details of defective condition and history. Example: Oscillator failure dead set, etc…

Basic Troubleshooting Steps
Basic Troubleshooting Steps
Define, Localize, Isolate and Correct
•Define Look at the symptom carefully and determine what circuits could be causing
the failure. Use your senses Sight, Smell, Touch and Hearing. Look for burned parts and
check for possible overheated components. Capacitors will sometimes leak dielectric material
and give off a distinct odor. Frequency of power supplies will change with the load, or listen for
relay closing etc. Observation of the front Power LED may give some clues.
•Localize After carefully checking the symptom and determining the circuits to be
checked and after giving a thorough examination using your senses the first check should
always be the DC Supply Voltages to those circuits under test. Always confirm the supplies
are not only the proper level but be sure they are noise free. If the supplies are missing check
the resistance for possible short circuits.
•Isolate To further isolate the failure, check for the proper waveforms with the
Oscilloscope to make a final determination of the failure. Look for correct Amplitude Phasing
and Timing of the signals also check for the proper Duty Cycle of the signals. Sometimes
“glitches” or “road bumps” will be an indication of an imminent failure.
•Correct The final step is to correct the problem. Be careful of ESD and make sure to
check the DC Supplies for proper levels. Make all necessary adjustments and lastly always
perform a Safety AC Leakage Test before returning the product back to the Customer.
