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.

SHARP LC-40SH340 SERVICE MODE AND POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT

SHARP LC-40SH340 SERVICE MODE AND POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT


SHARP LC-40SH340


SERVICE MODE
SERVICE MENU SETTINGS
In order to reach service menu, First Press “MENU” Then press the remote control code two times, which is “4725”.
Software update
1. Please copy the files to USB (root).
mb60_en.bin
mboot.bin
usb_auto_update.txt
2. Turn power to OFF by mechanical switch(rocker switch) or removing AC plug. And plug the USB to TV
3. Keep pressing OK key from remote controller and then turn the TV power to ON(by mechanical switch or by inserting the AC plug) and keep OK key pressed until the stanby led blinks rapidly(rapid blinking is faster than normal blinking)
4. When the led is started to blink rapidly, you can release the OK key.Please wait approximately for 1-2 minutes.
5. When the blinks of led is stopped, TV opens autamatically with the new SW.
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.
Backlight power supply should be in panel specs. Please check CN705 for MB60, related connectors for power supply cards.
STBY_ON/OFF should be low for standby on condition, please check R1677.
CI Module Problem
Problem: CI is not working when CI module inserted.
Possible causes: Supply, supply control pin, detect 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 be low.
Please 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 voltagemeter. 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
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.
