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!

General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Repair of the PHILIPS 37PFL3507T / 60 TV should begin with a careful external inspection of all its components and modules. Often, for certain external signs, it may be possible to draw certain conclusions about the reasons for the failure of certain elements of the circuit even before the necessary measurements are made, which will determine the further algorithm for troubleshooting and localizing the defect. Electrolytic capacitors of filters with a swollen casing, as well as ring cracks formed in the soldered leads of heating elements, or a layer of coal on burnt resistors sometimes tell the repairman the causes of the malfunction and possible consequences.
In cases where the PHILIPS 37PFL3507T TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and buttons, no indicators on the front panel light up or blink and there are no sounds and no signs of operability at all, the power supply module 715G5194-P01-W02 is most likely faulty -002M or there is no processor power on the motherboard (a typical defect of some PHILIPS TVs). Diagnostics and repair of the common power supply should always begin with a check of the mains fuse and the condition of the electrolytic capacitors of the secondary rectifier filters. Defective and swollen capacitors should be replaced with new ones. If the fuse breaks, it is advisable to check for a breakdown, first of all, all the power semiconductor elements of the converter and the diode bridge of the rectifier network, as well as the large electrolytic capacitor of the filter of the rectifier network.
It should be borne in mind that in the practice of repair it is extremely rare that key transistors in switching power supplies (SMPS) fail for no reason that should be sought by checking other components, for example, a breakdown of the key can provoke faulty elements of the damper circuits, or dried electrolytic capacitors or dangling primary resistors BP circuits involved in the stabilization process. In this case, all semiconductor elements of the strapping of the PWM controller chip are subject to verification, which it is desirable to verify by replacement.
If there is no image when you turn on the PHILIPS 37PFL3507T, or it appears for a second and disappears, but there is sound, most likely there is a malfunction in the backlight LED circuit of the LC370EUE SE M1 panel, or in their power converter. It is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the filter of the secondary rectifiers in the general power supply unit.
Often in the absence of backlighting, disassembling the panel is required. It is necessary to check the serviceability of the transitions of the LEDs, as well as the reliability of the contact connections in the rulers and connectors.
When trying to detect a break in the LED lines, it should be taken into account that it is difficult to do this without disassembling the panel. For example, a current source is needed to open PN junctions connected in series.
Repair of the motherboard 715G5155-M01-002-005X must begin with the diagnosis and verification of all linear stabilizers or power converters of its microcircuits. Sometimes it may be necessary to update the software (software) - flashing FLASH or EEPROM.
In cases where there is no tuning to the local television channels, you should make sure that the voltage of the varicaps (30-33V) and other supply voltages are on the terminals of the tuner ENV57U04D8F.
Once again, we remind TV users: you should not make attempts to repair it yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and the necessary qualifications! Trust the repair only to professionals with sufficient experience in the field of electronic equipment repair.
