General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Diagnostics of malfunctions and repairs LG 42LM340T, as well as other electronic devices, it is recommended to start with an external examination of the external and internal elements. Specific external damage to some elements can sometimes indicate further actions to determine the malfunction of the TV and localize the defect before the necessary measurements are taken. Electrolytic capacitors of filters with a swollen casing, as well as ring cracks formed in the soldered leads of heating elements, or a layer of coal on burnt resistors sometimes tell the repairman the causes of the malfunction and possible consequences.
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 buttons, does not make any sounds or any signs of operability when turned on, there is a certain chance that the LGP32-12P 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. 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.
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 42LM340T does not have an image, there is sound and the channels are switched, there is a possibility of a malfunction in the backlight LED circuit of the LC420DUN (SE) (U3) panel, or their power converter - LED driver. Sometimes when you turn on the image appears and disappears immediately. In such cases, it is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the power filter of the LED driver itself, including in the secondary rectifier of the main PSU.
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.
Diagnosis and repair of the EAX64909901 motherboard (1.0) is carried out by checking the performance of the stabilizers or power converters of the module chips. In some cases, a software update is required.
In some cases, it is necessary to check or replace (if necessary) the elements of the MB (SSB) board - LGE2111A-T8, NAND FLASH: H27U1G8F2BTR / BC - 1 Gbit (128M x 8 bits), SPI: W25Q80, EEPROM: 24C256, AUDIO: STA380BWE . In cases where the BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by the local heating method.
The malfunction of the TDSN-G301D tuner is established after checking the software and all the supply voltages at its terminals.
Attention to the owners! Attempts to self-repair the LG 42LM340T TV are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!

Main features of the device LG 42LM340T:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LC420DUN (SE) (U3) or LC420DUN (SE) (U2).
The matrix control uses the T-con Timing Controller (T-CON).
To power the backlight LEDs, the KLS-E420DRPHF02C LED driver is used, controlled by the BD9285F PWM controller. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type AOD482, STC2073 are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 42LM340T TV are generated by the EAX64604501 power supply module or its analogs using L6599AD (PWM Resonant), FSL106HR (Standby DIP-8), HS01G (PFC) microcircuits and MDF11N60, STD10NM60N type power switches.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is an EAX64909901 module using LGE2111A-T8 chips, NAND FLASH: H27U1G8F2BTR / BC - 1 Gbit (128M x 8 bits), SPI: W25Q80, EEPROM: 24C256, AUDIO: STA380BWE and others.
The TDSN-G301D tuner provides television reception and channel tuning.
