REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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.

SAMSUNG OLED TV - SMPS TROUBLESHOOTING

Samsung OLED TV - SMPS troubleshooting

How to troubleshoot the power supply regulator board (SMPS board) - Samsung OLED TV.
 The OLED TV’s Layout includes the MOIP Module at the top with the new EL Board directly below it at top centre. Two power supplies include the SMPS Left & SMPS Right. The Main Board, Sub Woofer, and TCON Board are followed by the Jog Function Board, seen lower left, the Wi-Fi Module, Speaker compliment location, IR and Bluetooth Module. The other speaker compliment location on right is not labelled.
 A cable connection from the MOIP to the Main Board. The EL Board connections are made to the L & R Panel Ribbon Cables located on each side of the Panel. The EL Board also connects directly to the left SMPS for its voltages supply. The SMPS Right connects to the SMPS Left while the SMPS Left connects also to the Main Board with the CN803 connector. The Sub Woofer also connects directly to the Main Board as well as the Jog Function, Wi-Fi Module, Speakers, IR, Eco Sensor (not shown) and Bluetooth Module.
 The ECO Sensor, PWR Status LED, & IR Sensor are on a Board located behind the Front Bottom Centre Grill of the OLED TV Frame. The 7 pin connector originating it’s signals from the Main board is shown and includes 1.8VD C to the LED Power Stdby indicator found on Pin 2, Data Signals on pin 3 & 4 that can be measured as effective pulsating DC 3.3VDC to 3.1VDC, A 3.3Vdc Supply on pin 5, and an IR Data Sig. measuring 3.3VDC and 2.7VDC with a re mote control command.  The 3 Pin Jog Shuttle will measure 3.3V on both Key 1 & Key 2 without any commands and OV on Key 1 with the Power & Enter Press Command Button. Key 2 will change from 3.3VDC to 1.6VDC with Plus Command. 2.5VDC with Minus, 0V with Up, and .8VDC with the Down command.
 The SMPS Right Power Supply is responsible for producing a 393VDC PFC Supply ld 16V C VCC S l f h SM S L f d d 3V voltage and a 16VDC VCC Supply for the SMPS Left Board and a 5.3V DC STBY for the Main Board. A PFC or Power Factor Control Circuit is used to control the voltages regardless of line voltage fluctuations while also preventing any power related harmonic noise. It will also increase the efficiency of the Power Supplies resulting in less power consumption to operate.
To Test SMPS-R
1. The SMPS Left Power Supply Board receives the PFC, VCC & STBY Supply Voltages from the SMPS- R Board. 
2. Receives PS-ON from Main Board 
3. Sends PS-ON to SMPS-R 
4. Produces 12VDC Supply for the Main Board 
5. Produces 24VDC Supply for the EL Board. The 24VDC Circuit Detect and 24V Supply Filter Caps are provided near the top section of the Board. A similar 12VDC Circuit is located near the bottom of the Board. The PFC+ & PFC Minus (P GND Reference) enters in at the top right 5 Pin Connector. Two PFC Fuses are also located near the top right and bottom centre of the Board.
To Test SMPS-L
Additional SMPS-L Test
1. Locate & Check the two 393VDC Fuses located near top right and bottom center of the board
2. Check 24VDC at the two Regulators and carefully measure the 24VDC at the Supply’s Filter Capacitors 3. Check 12VDC at the two Regulators.
