General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- LG 42LM620S 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.
In such cases, the malfunction should be sought first in the EAX64427101 power supply module. Then it is necessary to measure its output voltages and, in case of their complete or partial absence, it is necessary to check the serviceability of power switches (STF13NM60N, STF10NM60N) and rectifier diodes of converters for possible short circuit.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually work abnormally in the short circuit mode, and during short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse often breaks.
The breakdown of Mos-Fet keys used in pulsed sources is often caused by malfunctions of other elements, for example, in the power supply circuit of a PWM controller, in frequency-setting or damping circuits, as well as in Negative Stabilization Feedback. PWM chips FAN7930BG (PFC), L6599AD (PWM), STR-A6059 (Stb) are usually checked by replacing with new, or obviously working.
- 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.
The most likely in these cases is a malfunction of the LED backlight. The reason for this may be a break in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
To check the health in the LED circuit, it is better to use a current source with a maximum voltage of 200V. We do not recommend using any voltage sources for this purpose. You can check each LED individually with a simple Chinese multimeter (powered by 9 volts) in the P-N-junction test mode. If you connect the red probe of the multimeter to the anode of the LED, and the black to its cathode, then the 3-volt LED will light up slightly, and in the opposite direction you can detect the transition of the emergency zener diode. A zener diode PN junction indirectly indicates a LED-a

- The TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator blinks or signals standby mode.
Repair or diagnostics of the EAX64307906 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). In cases of complex repairs of MB (SSB) and in the presence of the necessary skills and equipment, sometimes it may be necessary to replace its chips LCE2112, H5TQ2G63DFR, KLM2G1HE3F, MICOM R5F100GEA, 24C16 and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the application of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the heating method.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all it is necessary to check the voltage of the TDSN-G351D tuner and update the software. The pulses from the I2C bus must be controlled with an oscilloscope.
Attention! For users and owners of 42LM620S TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we strongly recommend against attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-repairability of the device.

 To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with the AAT2430AISX controller, increase the resistance of the resistor from terminal 50 (ISET) to the housing, for example, from 3 KOhm to 4.7 KOhm. Currents will proportionally decrease in each of the 16 channels. With a parallel connection of channels, currents are summed.

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device LG 42LM620S:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LC420EUE (SE) (F1).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870C-0401B.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with a power supply, controlled by a PWM controller R5F100BCAFP, AAT2430AISX. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the PHT4NQ10LT type are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 42LM620S TV are generated by the EAX64427101 power module or its analogs using FAN7930BG (PFC), L6599AD (PWM), STR-A6059 (Stb) microcircuits and power switches of the STF13NM60N, STF10NM60N type.
