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.

LG50PQ30 PLASMA TV POWER SUPPLY BOARD [SMPS] CHECKING PROCEDURE

LG 50PQ30 plasma TV POWER SUPPLY BOARD [SMPS] CHECKING PROCEDURE


POWER SUPPLY BOARD [SMPS] OPERATION PRINCIPLE_VOLTAGES_Va & Vs Adjustments.
OPERATION PRINCPLE

  AC Voltage is supplied to the SMPS Board at Connector SC101 from the AC Input assembly. Standby 5V is developed from 160V source supply (which during run measures 380V measured from the primary fuse F302). This supply is also used to generate all other voltages on the SMPS.  The STBY5V (standby) is B+ for the Controller (IC701) on the SMPS and output at P813 pins 11 and 23 then sent to the Main board for Microprocessor (IC1) operation. AC Detect is generated on the SMPS, by rectifying a small sample of the A/C Line at D102 and associated circuitry and routed to the Controller (IC701) where it outputs at pin 15 and sent to P813 pin 18 to the Main Board where it is sensed and monitored by the Main Microprocessor (IC1). The AC Det in this set works differently than most. If AC Det is missing the Microprocessor will turn off the television in about 10 seconds after turn on.
This will happen each time turn on is attempted.
  A new feature included on the side keypad is called a Main Power Switch which opens a ground allowing the “Key On” line of P813 Pin 24 to go high, turning off the 5V STB line defeating the Micro Processor (IC1) on the Main Board and Remote Control Operation. When the Microprocessor (IC1) on the Main board receives an “ON“ Command from either the Power button or the Remote IR Signal, it outputs a high called RL ON at Pin 19 of P813. This command causes the Relay-Drive Circuit to close both Relays RL102 and RL103 bringing the PFC source up to full power by increasing the 160V standby to 380V run which can be read measuring voltage at Fuse F302 and F801 from “Hot” Ground. At this time the run voltages 12V, and +5V sources become active and are sent to the Main Board via P813 (12V at pins 5 and 6 and 5V at pins 9,10, and 12). The 5V detect line from the SMPS Board to the Main Board can be measured at pin 17 of P813. It is not used. 
  The next step is for the Microprocessor (IC1) on the Main Board to output a high on M5V ON Line to the SMPS at P813 Pin 21 which is sensed by the Controller (IC701) turning on the M5V line and output at P811 pins 9 and 10 to the Y-SUS board P201 pins 9, 10. Then it Is routed to the Control and Z-SUS boards.  Full Power occurs when the Microprocessor (IC1) on the Main Board brings the VS-ON line high at Pin 20 of P813 of the SMPS Board. VS-ON is routed to the Controller (IC701) which turns on the 17V Audio, VA, and the VS supplies. VA and VS output at P811 to the Y-SUS board. (VA pins 6 and 7 and VS pins 1 and 2). The 17V Audio supply outputs to the Main board at P814 pins 1 and 2 and used for Audio processing and amplification.  
  AUTO GND Pin 22 of P813: This pin is grounded on the Main board. When it is grounded, the Controller IC701 works in the normal mode, meaning it turns on the power supply via commands sent from the Main board. When this pin is floated (opened), it pulls up and turns the Controller IC701 on in the Auto mode. In this state, the Controller turns on the power supply in stages automatically. A load is necessary to perform a good test of the SMPS if the Main board is suspect.
Va & Vs adjustments
These adjustments are a must; when power board [SMPS] or Display panel are replaced.  Details about these voltages will be marked on each panel, and will differ to each other.

HOW TO TEST THE POWER SUPPLY [SMPS]
Using two 100 Watt light bulbs (Filament Type Only), attach one end to Vs and the other end to ground. Apply AC toSC101. If the light bulbs turn on and VS is the correct voltage, allow the SMPS to run for several minutes to be sure it will operate under load. If this test is successful land all other voltages are generated, you can be fairly assured the power supply is OK.
Note: To be 100% sure, you would need to read the current handling capabilities of each power supply listed on the silk screen on the SMPS and place each supply voltage under the appropriate load.
Note: This SMPS will run without a load, however if the Vs is not loaded, the 17V may pulsate up and down.  It is always best to test the SMPS under a load using the 2 light bulbs.

Note: The 17V turns on when the VS On command arrives.
Note: The 5V/12V turns on when the RL On command arrives.
Note: If the Key On line is 4.39V, the Main Power Switch is open.  Stand-By 5V will shut off.
