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!

General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Possible malfunctions
- The LG 20LC1R TV does not turn on and does not show any signs of operability at all. There is no reaction to the remote control and control buttons from the front panel.
In such cases, the fault should be sought first in the 6870TB68D11 power supply module. It is then necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, you should check the power switches (04N60C3) and the rectifier diodes of the converters for a short circuit probability.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits of any converter, as a rule, it can operate in emergency short-circuit mode without output voltages, and during short circuit in the elements of the primary circuit, the main fuse and, less often, the current sensor at the source of the key are most often cut off.
Breakdown of power switches (MosFet) in pulsed sources is sometimes caused by malfunctions of other circuit elements, for example, in circuits supplying a PWM controller, frequency-setting or damper ones, as well as in negative feedback (OOS) stabilization circuits. PWM controllers (PWM) ICE3BS02, if they do not have visible damage to the chassis and open fault between the terminals, are usually checked by replacement.
- There is no image, there is sound, it responds to the remote control. Or the image may appear for a second when turned on and immediately disappears.
The defect can be caused by problems in the nodes or elements of the backlight of the display, or in the power supply of the lamps or the inverter.After checking all the electrolytic capacitors of the filters that are involved in the power supply to the inverter, you must ring in its converter power keys for breakdown and secondary windings of transformers for an open.
Sometimes, for diagnostic purposes, it is necessary to disable the inverter protection. In such cases, special care must be taken during work, and the protection circuits should be restored immediately after the repair is completed.
- The TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator blinks or signals standby mode.
Repair or diagnostics of the CL-81 motherboard should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (software). Sometimes it is necessary to check or replace (if necessary) the elements of the MainBoard board - TDA15521E / N1F80, 24C32, SST39VF020. In cases where the BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by the local heating method.
Before changing the tuner TAEW-G053D, if there is no possibility of tuning to television channels, you should make sure that there are supply voltages that must be measured at the corresponding terminals of the tuner and check the software for correctness. The pulses of the data exchange of the tuner with the processor can be controlled by an oscilloscope
Attention TV owners! Attempts at self-repair of LG 20LC1R are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!

Main features of the device LG 20LC1R:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) LC201V02 (SD) (A1).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870S-0309A.
To power the backlight, a converter is used, combined with a power supply, controlled by a BIT3105P PWM controller.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 20LC1R TV are generated by the power supply module 6870TB68D11, or its analogs using ICE3BS02 microcircuits and power switches type 04N60C3.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a CL-81 module, using TDA15521E / N1F80, 24C32, SST39VF020 chips, and others.
The TAEW-G053D tuner provides TV reception and channel tuning.
