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 repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
TV LG 37LV3500-ZA, like many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. It often happens that visible damage to elements or connections helps determine the direction of the troubleshooting. Ring cracks in the soldering of the leads of the heating elements, swollen electrolytic capacitors, a charred paint layer on the resistors - all this for the repairman can be a significant clue in the assumptions about the causes and consequences of the malfunction.
If the TV does not turn on, no indicators on its front panel are lit or blinking. Also, if the TV does not respond to the remote control and the buttons, does not make any sounds or any signs of operability when turned on, there is a certain chance that the EAX62865601 / 8 power supply module is defective and needs repair. Sometimes with similar manifestations a problem can only occur in the absence of processor power, which is typical for certain LG models. It is advisable to start the troubleshooting of the power supply module by checking the state of the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filters and the mains fuse. Defective capacitors should be replaced. If the mains fuse is broken, it is necessary to check first of all the power semiconductor elements - rectifier diodes and transistors, which are often found in such a state of 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 37LV3500-ZA TV does not have an image, but there is sound, a malfunction in the LED backlight circuits of the T370HW05 V.1 panel is likely. It is also necessary to check the serviceability of the electrolytic capacitors of the filter of the secondary rectifiers of the PSU (power supply) for an overstated ESR.
Often there is a need for disassembling the panel to check the health of the LEDs, as well as contact connections in the connectors and soldering.
A break in the line of LEDs connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or tester without disassembling the panel. To open all the transitions, several tens of volts are needed, and it is best to use a current source for such purposes.
The motherboard should be checked if there is no reaction to the remote control and function buttons, the standby indicator blinks or lights up constantly. In such cases, if the converters or power regulators of the microcircuit are working, a software update may be necessary.
Board repair and chip replacement SAA35408711, MAX3232C, S324M-E1, 25L8006E, LCX244, 2401RP, AP2191D, H5TQ1G63DFR, NTP-7100 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.
Before replacing the TDTJ-S001D * EBL60721201 tuner, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first dismantle it and carefully solder it. In most cases, the malfunctions of this tuner are eliminated by the method of total soldering it from the side of planar elements. Details on the page Tuner Repair TDTJ-S001D.
Owners and users of the LG 37LV3500-ZA TV must remember that self-repair without special knowledge, skills and qualifications can be fraught with negative consequences that can 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 EAX62865601 / 8 LGP3237-11SP module provides for the use of a Power Factor Correction unit. The PFC circuit is a flyback converter based on the FAN7930B 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 37LV3500-ZA:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) T370HW05 V.1 or LC370EUN (SD) (V2).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) T315HW07.
The LED driver PPW-LE37GD-O is used to power the backlight LEDs.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 37LV3500-ZA TV are generated by the EAX62865601 power supply module or its analogs using FAN7930B (PFC), L6599AD (PWM Resonant L6599AI), ICE3BR4765JZ (Standby) microcircuits and power switches of the K10A60D type.
