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!

REPAIR / SERVICING TV LG 28LH451U

Technical description and composition of the LG 28LH451U TV, panel type and applicable modules. The composition of the modules.
LG LED
Model: 28LH451U
Chassis / Version: LD60A

MainBoard: EAX66873503 (1.2)
IC MainBoard: CPU: LGE6351 AUMN506B 1722A, SPI FLASH: 25L8005
Tuner: TDJA-G301D
Technical Specifications 28LH451U
LG 28LH451U
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- LG 28LH451U TV does not turn on. There are no signs of operability. The indicators on the front panel do not light or flash, the TV does not respond to the remote control and control buttons.
In such cases, the adapter power supply is usually faulty.
The owner of the TV can purchase an external power supply unit such as Adapter and repairing it is not always advisable. In any case, the simplest typical defects characteristic of most IIP schemes can be easily detected and eliminated after opening. Then we recommend that you measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, you should check the health of the power switches and rectifier diodes of the converters for possible short-circuit.
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.
Mos-Fet power switches, used in switching power supplies, sometimes fail due to a malfunction of any other elements that can put it out of operation in key mode or create an excess of the maximum permissible parameters of the switch. These can be elements supplying the PWM controller, frequency-setting or damping circuits, or negative feedback elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers, in the absence of visible damage or frank short-circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing with new, or obviously working.
- There is no image, there is sound, it responds to the remote control, the channels are switched. In some cases, the image appears when you turn on and immediately disappears.
The most likely in these cases is a malfunction of the LED backlight. The reason for this may be a break in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
To check the LED lines for breaks without disassembling the panel, for example, a current source will help. It is impossible to open series-connected PN junctions with a simple multimeter, a voltage of the order of several tens of volts is required.
- The indicator blinks or glows constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the EAX66873503 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 - CPU: LGE6351 AUMN506B 1722A, SPI FLASH: 25L8005. In cases where the BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by the local heating method.
Before replacing the TDJA-G301D tuner, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first check the software and the supply voltage at its terminals. It is also necessary to make sure that the tuner and processor can exchange data via the I2C bus
Attention! For users and owners of 28LH451U TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we categorically do not recommend attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-serviceability of the device.


To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with the MP3378E PWM controller, it is necessary to proportionally increase the total resistance of the resistors from pin 3 (RISET) to the chassis. Calculation of current in milliamperes and resistance in kilo-ohms 977 / Rset for each channel. Parallel channels are summed. For example, for four parallel channels and a RISET 10 KOhm resistance, the total current will be 97.7 * 4 = 391 mA.
