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
LG 42LK551 TV, as well as many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. Many visible changes in the state of the elements make it possible to determine the future 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.
A malfunction of the power supply is often manifested corny - the TV does not turn on, does not make any sounds, does not light up and does not blink with any indicators. In the general case, first of all, it is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the secondary rectifier filters and the fuse at the input of the network. If it is cut off, then it is necessary to check the diodes of the rectifier bridge and the key transistor of the converter for a breakdown of the PN junctions, which can either be on a separate radiator or integrated with a PWM controller in a common chip. Possible options.
If the power keys of the pulse converter are not equal, you should pay attention to other elements in their bundling, which may be the result or cause of their breakdown.
In cases where the LG 42LK551 TV has lost an image, and the sound is there and all the other functions are functional, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the inverter (converter for powering the backlight). When you turn on the TV, the image may appear briefly and immediately disappear. It must be borne in mind that with such manifestations, the lamps themselves also fail, the malfunction of which can be detected by replacement, by connecting to the connectors for diagnostics that are known to be serviceable and suitable in power. It is necessary to take into account that in cases of inverter protection shutdown (in order to be able to diagnose) there is a risk of failure of the inverter power elements and take special care. After carrying out repairs, the protection circuit must be restored for further safe operation of the TV.
The motherboard EAX64290501 - EBR74015307, SAA35246030 must be checked if there is no reaction to the remote control and function buttons, the standby indicator blinks or stays on. In such cases, if the converters or power regulators of the microcircuit are working, a software update may be necessary. Sophisticated MB board repair (SSB) is in some cases possible and practiced by repairmen. To do this, check and, if necessary, replace the CPU elements: LGE107DC-RP, DDR: H5TQ1G63DFR-PBC, Nand: K9F1G08U0D, FLASH 25Q80, EEPROM 24C16. BGA chip malfunctions are usually easy to detect by warming up.
The TDTJ-S001D EBL60721201 tuner malfunction is established after checking the software and all supply voltages at its terminals. The data exchange of the tuner with the processor via the I2C bus can be controlled by an oscilloscope.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the LG 42LK551 TV without the appropriate qualifications and experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

PSU Advanced
The 42LK551 model uses the EAX63543801 power supply unit using the PFC (Power Factor Correction) node - an active filter of the highest harmonics of the current consumption. In fact, it is a step-up converter based on the HS01G PWM controller, which eliminates the charge current of the electrolytic capacitor of the rectifier filter directly from the network through open diodes when its charging current is determined by its reactance.
As a result of the operation of the converter, the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the input current of the converter will repeat the shape and phase of the input voltage. The health of the PFC node can be indirectly judged by the presence of an increased constant voltage (about + 380V) on the capacitor of the rectifier network in operating mode.
The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device LG 42LK551:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) V420H2-LH5.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) V420H2-CE6.
To power the backlight used inverter T87I135.00.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 42LK551 TV are generated by the EAX63543801 power supply module or its analogs using HS01G (PFC), ICE3BR4765JZ (Standby DIP-7), L6599AD microcircuits and 10NM60N power switches.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is an EAX64290501 module, using CPU chips: LGE107DC-RP, DDR: H5TQ1G63DFR-PBC, Nand: K9F1G08U0D, FLASH 25Q80, EEPROM 24C16 and others.
