PANASONIC TX-20LA6P
General recommendations for TV LCD repair
Possible manifestations of malfunctions
- The PANASONIC TX-20LA6P TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and control panel buttons, the indicators do not light up or flash.
In some of these cases, the main switching power supply, the IPB-6015N01 module, turns out to be faulty. Then we recommend measuring its output voltages and, if they are absent, you should check the serviceability of the power switches and rectifier diodes of the converters for a possible short circuit.
In case of any breakdown of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually operate normally in an emergency short-circuit mode. There are no output voltages. And with a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, as a rule, the mains fuse breaks and, less often, the current sensor in the source of the key.
Breakdown of Mos-Fet switches used in switching power supplies is often caused by malfunctions of other elements, for example, in the power supply circuit of the PWM controller, in frequency setting or damper circuits, as well as in negative feedback stabilization. PWM microcircuits (PWM) SRTW6253 are usually checked by replacing them with new ones, or knowingly working.
- There is no image, there is sound, it reacts to the remote control. Or the image may appear for a second when turned on and disappear immediately.
These manifestations can be provoked by the power module, or by defects in the inverter, as well as by the skew of currents in the lamps due to their uneven wear. If all the electrolytic capacitors of the filter for the power supply of the inverter are in good working order, you should make sure that the lamps are in good condition, then you need to check the keys of the converter and the secondary windings of the transformers.
Sometimes, for diagnostic purposes, it is necessary to disable the inverter protection. In such cases, special care must be taken during work, and the protective circuits must be restored immediately after the repair is completed.
- The TV does not go into operation, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator on the front panel is on or blinking.
Repair or diagnostics of the PTMSMSG142 motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters required to power the microcircuits and matrix. If necessary, you should update or replace the software (software). If it is not possible to replace the MB (SSB) board, it is necessary to check the serviceability of its elements - CPU: TDA15521E / N1F81, FLASH: 39VF020. Defective components must be replaced.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all, you need to check the supply voltage of the UV1316 / A I H-4 tuner and update the software. I2C communication pulses must be monitored with an oscilloscope.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the PANASONIC TX-20LA6P TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

A converter combined with a power supply is used to power the backlight lamps. An EFD1221B transformer is installed in the inverter converter.
The formation of the necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the PANASONIC TX-20LA6P TV is carried out by the IPB-6015N01 power module, or its analogs using SRTW6253 microcircuits.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a PTMSMSG142 module, using CPU chips: TDA15521E / N1F81, FLASH: 39VF020 and others.
The UV1316 / A I H-4 tuner provides reception of television programs and tuning to channels.
