It seems a majority of the time the problem is D315. This comes in the kit or seperately for about $5 (that is about $13 with shipping). If you are cheap try this. D315 is a SIDAC made by SHINDEGEN My part number was K1V23N. Others have reported it labeled as K1V237, K1V269, and K1V66. Suspect the last one is a typing error. Found it by google K1V2 and K1V24 pooped up.

This will not test as a regular diode, polarity does not matter at all. It starts conducting in either direction when voltage is over 180V. A post on another forum said it started conducting when it reached 185V, but he still didn't know what it was. An ohm meter will never detect anything.

A SIDAC (not a SIDACtor) is a thyristor that at a certain voltage turns into a short till current stops or reverses direction. Since this is in series withC1330, they should both be replaced. Mine is a .22 instead of a .1 so there is variance in these sets. ESR was a little over 2 ohms which sems on the ify side for something that carries current.

ONSEMI has a MKP33V240 that sells for about 50 cents at digikey and a K1V24 at Mouser is about a buck. Decide for yourself if this is a suitable item.

Need to replace bulb in lcd panasonic

After lamp replacement, make sure that lamp cover is properly fixed on its location and if TV still does not turn On then it is ballast power supply issue, qualified TV tech will fix it.
If you think you can repair ballast supply and have enough knowledge about TV repair, let me know to provide you technical info about that.

Panasonic pt-50lc13

The ballast probably needs to be repaired. A repair kit #LSUC0022 is available from Panasonic.

Panasonic model# PT-50LC13

It very well could be the ballast. I unfortunately have this tv and keep extra bulbs because they go out about once a year. Last time when I replaced the bulb the tv blinked and the red lamp light flashed like it does when the bulb is bad. Ballast repair kit fixed it up. This is certainly a design issue but you'll get no help from Panasonic. If tv comes on the goes out after a while, clean the fan filter.
