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.

Total Assembly line process
Adjustment Preparation
# W/B Equipment condition
CA210: LED → CH14, Test signal: Inner pattern (80IRE)
# Above 5 minutes H/run in the inner pattern. ("Power on" key of Adjustment remote control)
W/B adj. Objective & How-it-works
(1) Objective: To reduce each Panel’s W/B deviation
(2) How-it-works: When R/G/B gain in the OSD is at 192, it means the panel is at its Full Dynamic Range.
In order to prevent saturation of Full Dynamic range and data, one of R/G/B is fixed at 192, and the other two is lowered to find the desired value.
(3) Adj. condition: normal temperature
> Surrounding Temperature: 25 ± 5 °C
> Warm-up time: About 5 Min
> Surrounding Humidity: 20% ~ 80%
> Before White balance adjustment, Keep power on status, don’t power off.
If Model is POLA model:
Case: Cool Mode
# Purpose: Adjust the color temperature to reduce the deviation of the module color temperature.
# Principle: To adjust the white balance without the saturation, Fix the G gain to 172 (default data) and change the others ( R/B Gain ).
# Adjustment mode: mode - Cool
Case : Medium / Warm Mode
# Purpose : Adjust the color temperature to reduce the deviation of the module color temperature.
# Principle: To adjust the white balance without the saturation, Fix the one of R/G/B gain to 192 (default data) and decrease the others.
# Adjustment mode: Two modes - Medium / Warm.
Manual W/B process using adjusts Remote control.> Colour Temperature: COOL, Medium, Warm> One of R Gain/ G Gain/ B Gain should be kept on 0xC0, and adjust other two lower than C0. (When R/G/B Gain are all C0, it is the FULL Dynamic Range of Module)> after enter Service Mode by pushing “ADJ” key,
> Enter White Balance by pushing key at “9. White Balance”.
> For manual adjustment, it is also possible by the following sequence
(1) Set TV in Adj. mode using POWER ON
(2) Zero Calibrate the probe of Colour Analyser, then place it on the centre of LCD module within 10cm of the surface
(3) Press ADJ key => EZ adjust using adj. R/C => 8. White Balance then press the cursor to the right (KEY).   When KEYis pressed 206 Gray internal pattern will be displayed.
(4) Adjust Cool modes
1) Fix the one of R/G/B gain to 192 (default data) and decrease the others. (If G gain is adjusted over 172 and R and B gain less than 192 , Adjust is O.K.)
2) If G gain is less than 172, Increase G gain by up to 172, and then increase R gain and G gain same amount of increasing G gain.
3) If R gain or B gain is over 255, readjust G gain less than 172, Conform to R gain is 255 or B gain is 255
(5) Adjust two modes (Medium/Warm) 
Fix the one of R/G/B gain to 192 (default data) and decrease the others.
(6) Adj. is completed, Exit adjust mode using “EXIT” key on Remote control.
# If internal pattern is not available, use RF input In EZ Adj. menu
9. White Balance, you can select one of 2 Test-pattern: ON, OFF. Default is inner (ON).  
By selecting OFF, you can adjust using RF signal in 206 Gray pattern Balance by pushing key at “9. White Balance”
CASE Cool
First adjust the coordinate far away from the target value(x, y).
1) x, y > target
i) Decrease the R, G.
2) x, y < target
i) First decrease the B gain,
ii) Decrease the one of the others.
3) x > target, y < target
i) First decrease B, so make y a little more than the target.
ii) Adjust x value by decreasing the R.
4) x < target, y > target
i) First decrease B, so make x a little more than the target.
ii) Adjust x value by decreasing the G.
How to adjust
1) If G gain is adjusted over 172 and R gain and B gain less than 192, Adjust is O.K.
2) If G gain is less than 172, increase G gain by up to 172, and then increase R gain and B gain same amount of increasing G gain.
3) If R gain or B gain is over 255, Readjust G gain less than 172, Conform to R gain is 255 or B gain is 255.
CASE Medium / Warm
First adjust the coordinate far away from the target value(x, y).
1) x, y > target
i) Decrease the R, G.
2) x, y < target
i) First decrease the B gain,
ii) Decrease the one of the others.
3) x > target, y < target
i) First decrease B, so make y a little more than the target.
ii) Adjust x value by decreasing the R
4) x < target, y > target
i) First decrease B, so make x a little more than the target.
ii) Adjust x value by decreasing the G
* After You finish all adjustments, Press “In-start” button and compare Tool option and Area option value with its BOM, if it is correctly same then unplug the AC cable.  If it is not same, then correct it same with BOM and unplug AC cable.  For correct it to the model’s module from factory JIG model.
* Push the “IN-STOP KEY” after completing the function inspection.
