REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

Copy To USB
There are two steps and both are independent of each other.
Copy the updated welcome image to USB as “hotel_wel.png”
Copy NVRAM data (service list, preferences, etc.) to USB device. When Copy to USB is called, those files are copied from TV to USB. Then they can be used for various purposes testing on another TV or testing/debugging on observatory etc. Note that USB should be plugged before this operation.
Copy From USB
There are two steps and both are independent of each other.
If there is file named “hotel_wel.png” in directory “welcome_image”. It is copied to TV to use as welcome image.
Copy from USB device data to NVRAM. Just the reverse operation done by copy to USB call. Previously copied NVRAM files (Flashx.bin) are copied into TV. If there is no flash file or some of them are available on USB, the available ones are copied. If no USB is connected, nothing happens.
USB Option
If ON is selected TV will go on normal operation. If it is OFF USB device will not receive on none of the USB ports.
Fixed Pic. Mode
If OFF is selected TV will go on normal operation. If it is ON Main menu/Picture quick menu/mode and quick menu/picture zoom will be inaccessible.

On the bottom side of image there is a message (OSD message) displaying “press any key”
Welcome image can be changed through USB (described in “copy from USB” section). A default welcome image is available. Welcome images are .PNG files with the resolution of 960X540.
Signal Lost (no signal) message
As default behavior, if there is no signal the same welcome image is displayed. This time OSD message is “no
signal”.
Internal Clock
If hotel mode is active a new function (add wake up timer) will be available in Settings/Timers menu. That function will open a new menu to set wake up time. After timer is saved, TV can wake up automatically on desired time.

TROUBLESHOOTING
No Backlight Problem
Problem: If TV is working, led is normal and there is no picture and backlight on the panel.
Possible causes: Backlight pin, dimming pin, backlight supply, stby on/off pin
Backlight pin should be high in open position. If it is low, please check Q181 and panel cables.
Dimming pin should be high or square wave in open position. If it is low, please check S16 for Mstar side and panel or power cables, connectors.

Back-light power supply should be in panel specs. 
Please check CN705 for MB60, related connectors for power supply cards.
CI Module Problem
CI is not working when CI module inserted.
Possible causes: Supply, supply control pin, detects pins, mechanical positions of pins
CI supply should be 5V when CI module inserted. If it is not 5V please check CI_POWER_CTRL, this pin should check mechanical positions of CI module.
Detect ports should be low. If it is not low please check CI connector pins, CI module pins and 3V3_VCC on MB60 
Led Blinking Problem
Problem: LED blinking, no other operation
This problem indicates a short on Vcc voltages. Protect pin should be logic high while normal operation.
When there is a short circuit protect pin will be logic low. If you detect logic low on protect pin, unplug
the TV set and control voltage points with a multimeter to find the shorted voltage to ground.
IR Problem
Problem: LED or IR not working
Check LED card supply on MB60 chassis.
Keypad Touchpad Problems
Problem: Keypad or Touchpad is not working
Check keypad supply and KEYBOARD pin on MB60.
USB Problems
Problem: USB is not working or no USB Detection.
Check USB Supply, It should be nearly 5V. Also USB Enable should be logic high.
No Sound Problem
Problem: No audio at main TV speaker outputs.
Check supply voltages of VDD_AUDIO, 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltage-meter.
There may be a problem in headphone connector or headphone detect circuit (when headphone is
connected, speakers are automatically muted). Measure voltage at HP_DETECT pin, it should be 3.3v.
No Sound Problem at Headphone
Problem: No audio at headphone output.
Check HP detect pin, when headphone is. Check 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltage-meter.

Standby On/Off Problem
Problem: Device cannot boot, TV hangs in standby mode.
There may be a problem about power supply. Check 12V_VCC, 5V_VCC and 3V3_VCC with a voltage
meter. Also there may be a problem about SW. Try to update TV with latest SW. Additionally it is good to
check SW printouts via hyper-terminal (or Teraterm). These printouts may give a clue about the problem.
No Signal Problem
No signal in TV mode.
Check tuner supply voltage; 5V_TUN. Check tuner options are correctly set in Service menu. Check AGC
voltage at RF_AGC pin of tuner.
