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 recommendations for repairing TV LCD
It is recommended that you start troubleshooting diagnostics for the PHILIPS 37PFL9603D / 10 TV, as well as all other electronic devices, with an external inspection of both external and internal elements and modules. Often, according to the external signs and the nature of some damage to the elements, it is possible to draw preliminary conclusions and determine a further algorithm for troubleshooting and localizing the malfunction before carrying out the necessary measurements and taking oscillograms at control points. Swollen electrolytic or cermet capacitors, charred resistors, ring cracks in the soldered terminals of the elements - all this can significantly help the master to determine the causes and consequences of the malfunction of the TV.
Power Module Repair
Sometimes the PHILIPS 37PFL9603D / 10 TV simply does not turn on. No control lights on the front panel are lit or blinking, the TV does not respond to the remote control and does not make any sounds or any signs of life when turned on. The most likely cause of the malfunction is a failure of the common power module. 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 is broken, it is advisable to check for a breakdown, first of all, all power semiconductor elements of the converter and the rectifier diode bridge of the network, as well as the large electrolytic capacitor of the filter of the network rectifier and the key transistor.
As a rule, the keys of flyback converters, which use an N-Fet field effect transistor on a separate radiator, or integrated with a PWM controller in a single chip, are reliable enough and rarely fail for no reason. The reasons for the breakdown of the key should be sought by checking other components of the circuit - electrolytic capacitors, resistors and semiconductor elements of the primary circuit. The PWM chip is verified by replacing it with a known good one.
When using the Active Power Factor Correction (CMC) circuitry in the power module, the search for faulty elements is somewhat more complicated.
Inverter Repair
Sometimes the PHILIPS 37PFL9603D / 10 TV does not have an image, but there is sound, or the image appears and immediately disappears. In this case, there is a high probability of a malfunction of the backlight converter, or of the lamps themselves, which can be checked by replacement. In such cases, it is necessary to verify the serviceability of all the electrolytic capacitors of the filter by supplying the inverter itself, including the power supply unit (power supply unit).
Repairing the inverter 3104 328 56911 D824JU is difficult because in case of any malfunction or abnormal situation, even if the lamps are unevenly worn, protection is triggered, which turns it off for fire safety purposes. Diagnostics become impossible and protection needs to be disabled.
When diagnosing with the protection off, special precautions must be taken, because there is a risk of failure of the power elements of the inverter. After the diagnosis, it is imperative to restore the protection circuits for the inverter to operate normally.
Owners and users of the PHILIPS 37PFL9603D / 10 TV must remember that self-repair without special knowledge, skills and qualifications can be fraught with negative consequences that can lead to complete non-repairability of the device!

PSU Advanced
The 37PFL9603D / 10 model uses a 310432852763 power supply unit using the PFC (Power Factor Correction) node - an active filter of the highest harmonics of the current consumption. In fact, it is a step-up converter based on the 1606B PWM controller, which eliminates the charge current of the electrolytic capacitor of the rectifier filter directly from the network through open diodes, when its charging current is determined by its reactance.
As a result of the operation of the converter, the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the input current of the converter will repeat the shape and phase of the input voltage. The health of the PFC node can be indirectly judged by the presence of an increased constant voltage (about + 380V) on the capacitor of the rectifier network in operating mode.
