General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible malfunctions
- LG 32LB530U TV does not turn on at all. There is no reaction to the remote control and control buttons from the front panel. Indicator lights do not light or flash.
Typically, with such manifestations, the defect is caused by faulty elements in the main power module EAX64905001. In the absence of the necessary supply voltages in the secondary circuits of the converters, it is necessary to check the power switches (MDF11N65B) and rectifier diodes for a possible partial or complete breakdown.
In the event of breakdowns in the secondary circuits of the converter, it can usually fail in short circuit mode, and in the event of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or current sensor at the source of the key most often breaks.
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 circuits (OOS) of stabilization. PWM controllers (PWM) SSC1S311A (PWM flyback), NR891D (PWM Step-down 24/12), if they do not have visible damage to the case and open fault between the terminals, are usually checked by replacement.
- 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.
As a rule, in such cases there is no display backlight. The reason can be both in the power supply of the LEDs, in their serviceability (breakdown or breakage), as well as in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.
When diagnosing, it is necessary to take into account that it is impossible to check the open in the chain of LED lines without disassembling the panels using a tester or multimeter. To open all PN junctions connected in series, a voltage of the order of several tens of volts is required, and ideally, a current source. By opening the panel, each LED can be checked separately. Typically, Chinese multimeters light up a single 3-volt LED, if you connect probes in the forward direction to it. In dual 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its emergency zener diode can serve as an indicator of health. In the event of a LED malfunction, its zener diode will either be cut off or broken into short-circuit.
- The indicator on the front panel blinks, the TV does not turn on in the operating mode, it does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the EAX64891306 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). Board repair and replacement of CPU chips: LGE2121-MC, DRAM: H5TQ2G63DFR, Flash: MX25L8006E, AUDIO: STA380BWF are carried out with the necessary equipment, and the corresponding element base. Faults associated with the application of BGA processor soldering technologies can be localized by the heating method.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all you need to check the voltage of the tuner TDSQ-G601D (B) and update the software. The pulses from the I2C bus must be controlled with an oscilloscope.
For owners of the 32LB530U TV, we recommend that you contact qualified personnel with the necessary work experience for repairs! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to irreversible negative consequences!


One of the typical failures of the LG 32LB530U ZA often occurs in the LG panel LC320DXE (SG) (R1).
External manifestations: there is no image, the backlight does not work. In most such cases, the LEDs turn out to be malfunctioning, which during testing turn out to be either in a cliff or with broken internal zener diodes.
LEDs must be replaced, and the maximum current from the driver should be limited to 10-20%.

To reduce the backlight current in TVs with the LGP32-13PL1 power supply unit (EAX64905001), you can increase the resistance of the current sensor, which consists of a set of pairs of low-impedance resistors R822-R829, only 4 pairs of 3.9 + 4.3 Ohm.
Having repaired one pair, we increase the nominal value of the sensor by 25%, which proportionally reduces the current in the LEDs from 400 mA to 300 mA.

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device LG 32LB530U:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LC320DXE (SG) (R1).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870C-0442B.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with a power supply unit, controlled by the MAP3202 PWM controller (MAP3202SIRH). As the power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type FDT86106, AP18N20GH are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 32LB530U TV are generated by the EAX64905001 power module or its analogs using SSC1S311A (PWM flyback), NR891D (PWM Step-down 24/12) microcircuits and MDF11N65B type power switches.
