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
Diagnostics of malfunctions and repairs of the LG 37LH2000, as well as other electronic devices, is recommended to begin with an external examination of the external and internal elements. It often happens that visible damage to elements or connections helps determine the direction of the troubleshooting. Carbonized paint on the upper layer of resistors, electrolytic capacitors of rectifier filters swollen after boiling, cracked soldering at the terminals of heating elements or transformers can often suggest the cause of the defect and possible consequences.
Sometimes the LG 37LH2000 TV just doesn’t 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 the failure of the EAX55357701 / 34 common power module. If it is working properly, you must check the standby batteries on the Main Board. When diagnosing and repairing the power supply, after replacing the swollen capacitors of the filters of the secondary rectifiers (if any), you must first check the mains fuse. When it is broken, the power elements of the 07N60C3 transistors and rectifier bridge diodes should be checked for avalanche (thermal) breakdown.
As a rule, the keys in switching power supplies (SMPS) are reliable enough and rarely fail for no reason to be looked for 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.
If the LG 37LH2000 does not have an image, but there is sound, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the backlight or power converter. You should also make sure that the electrolytic capacitors of the secondary rectifiers of the common power supply are working. Turning off the protection for diagnostic purposes, it must be remembered that in this case there is a risk of failure of the power elements of the inverter. Upon completion of the diagnosis, all regular protection circuits should be restored.
Repair or diagnostics of the EAX60686904 (2) motherboard should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, you should update the software (software). Complex repair of MB (SSB) is possible only in the conditions of a service center with the necessary equipment. Checking or replacing elements MP2212DN 25X32VSIG LCX244 MP2305DS LVC541A LGE3368A-LF-SF MAX3232C LM324DG LGE2001S 24C08WI NTP-3100L requires the necessary training and professional skills in repairing modules at the component level. Problems associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can sometimes be diagnosed by warming up.
If a TDFW-G235D tuner is suspected of a malfunction, first of all, it is necessary to verify the correctness of the software, as well as the presence of the necessary voltage levels and data exchange pulses with the processor via the I2C bus at the corresponding tuner pins.
Attention! For users and owners of 37LH2000 TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we strongly recommend against self-repair attempts in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-repairability of the device

PSU Advanced
According to the conditions of compliance with modern world standards for household switching power supplies, the EAX55357701 / 34 module provides for the use of a Power Factor Correction unit. The PFC circuit is a flyback converter based on the ICE2PCS06 PWM controller. The reactance of an electrolytic capacitor of a line filter at a frequency of 50-60 Hz is usually not more than 20-30 ohms and its charge directly from the network through open diodes could reach tens of amperes per pulse if no filtering were applied.
As a result of the PFC conversion, an increased voltage on the capacitor (about 380V) cannot directly open the rectifier diodes, on the anode of which the voltage will always be slightly less (about 300V) and then its charging current will always be limited by the elements of the PWM controller. As a result, the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the consumed current will repeat the shape and phase of the input sinusoidal voltage. The presence of an increased voltage (+ 380V) on the network capacitor indicates the serviceability of the PFC node.
The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device LG 37LH2000:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) LC370WXE (SB) (A1).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870C-0240C ;.
To power the backlight, a converter is used, combined with a power supply, controlled by a BD9215F PWM controller. The transformer LIH37-001 NYB-003 is installed in the inverter converter.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 37LH2000 TV are generated by the EAX55357701 power supply module or its analogs using ICE2PCS06 (PFC), STR-W6252 microcircuits and 07N60C3 type power switches.
