REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

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.

Troubleshooting

NO POWER
If the unit doesn’t work by no power problem, repair the set according to the following
(1) FUSE & BRIDGE DIODE
Please check and replace F901, BD901, TH901 or TH903 on SMPS board.
1) Check if the fuse F901 is open or short-circuit.
2) Check if the bridge diode BD901 is short-circuit by over current with a digital multi meter.
3) Check if the NTC thermistor TH901 or TH903 is normal or open.
(2) D951
Please check and replace D951 on SMPS board.
1) Check the anode-cathod voltage of D951 with a digital multi-meter, it is normally 0.2 ~ 0.3 V.
 If it doesn’t have any voltage, it’s destroyed. Replace it with a new one.
NO BOOTING WHEN POWER ON THE SET
The set doesn’t work when press the power button on the front board or the remote control.
(1) FLASH MEMORY
Please check and replace IC503 on MAIN board.
1) Check 5.6 V to CN501 in standby mode.
 If there is no 5.6 V, check the SMPS.
2) Check 12 V, F+, F- and PVDD when power on the set.
- If the set doesn’t work regardless of what the KEY1 changes high to low while pressing the power button.
X500 and X501 work normally but, if you can not power on the set, replace IC501 with a new one on the MAIN board.
VFD IS NOT DISPLAYED WHEN POWER ON THE SET
When power on the set, any icons or characters on VFD are not displayed.
Please check and replace DIG400 on FRONT board.
1) Check if VKK, FL+ and FL- are output from SMPS to VFD via the MAIN board.
2) Check if IC501 outputs VFD_D0, VFD_CLK and VFD_STB to the FRONT board.
3) Check the GR signal(pulse signal) of IC301 on the FRONT board.
Check the SG signal(pulse signal) of IC301 on the FRONT board.
 If the GR and SG signal isn’t output, replace IC301 with a new one.
 If the GR and SG signal is output, replace DIG302 with a new one.
