General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
In the case when the 42LM669T does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and buttons on the front panel, does not blink bulbs and does not show any signs of operability, the EAX64744201 (1.3), EAY62608902, LGP4247L-12LPB-3P power supply module is probably defective. First of all, it is necessary to replace the swollen capacitors of the rectifier filters, if any. If the mains fuse is broken in the power supply, in most cases a breakdown of the power key (s) is detected, which can be integrated with the PWM controller, or a separate field-effect transistor can be used. The rectifier bridge diodes and the electrolytic capacitor of the mains rectifier filter should also be checked.
Power switches in pulsed power supplies (SMPS) fail extremely rarely for no reason and, if they are broken, it is necessary to look for a malfunction in the stabilization circuits by checking electrolytic capacitors, semiconductor devices, and resistors in the primary circuit. The cause may be a malfunction of the PWM controller chip, which can only be checked by replacing it with a new or obviously working one.
If the LG 42LM669T has no image, but there is sound and the TV is controlled by the remote control, a malfunction in the backlight circuits of the LC420EUG (PE) panel (F2) is likely. LEDs or their power converter - LED driver may be faulty. Often in such cases, when you turn on the TV, an image appears and immediately disappears. First of all, it is necessary to verify the operability of the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filter supplying the backlight assembly.
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.
To open all transitions, several tens of volts or more are necessary, and it is best to use a current source for such purposes. A break in the line of LEDs connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or tester without disassembling the panel. In the open panel, it is necessary to check each LED. If your multimeter cannot open the LED transitions in forward bias, then see the presence of the PN transition of the protective zener diode by connecting the probes in the opposite direction. If the zener diode is broken or broken in short-circuit, then the LED is faulty and needs to be replaced.
On the motherboard EAX64307906 - EBR75226848, in case of a malfunction, you should first check the performance of all the stabilizers and power converters of the microcircuits, and also, if necessary, update the software (software).
In some cases, to repair the MB (SSB) board, it may be necessary to replace the chips - PU: LGE2112 1215-BTAH, NAND: KLM2G1HE3F-B001, Sound: STA380BWE with new or obviously working ones. In cases where BGA technologies are used, defects are usually localized by the heating method.
Before changing the TDSN-G351D tuner, if it is not possible to tune to television channels, make sure that there are supply voltages that must be measured at the corresponding tuner pins and check the software for correctness. The pulses of the data exchange of the tuner with the processor can be controlled by an oscilloscope
It should be remembered! Attempts to repair the LG 42LM669T TV, in the absence of the necessary qualifications and experience, are categorically not recommended and are fraught with negative consequences, up to the 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

PSU Advanced
The 42LM669T is equipped with an EAX64744201 power supply module using the PFC (Power Factor Correction) scheme, which acts as an active filter to eliminate the higher harmonic components of the current consumption. The boost converter based on the FAN7930BG PWM controller does not allow the input rectifier filter's electrolytic capacitor to be connected to the network directly through open diodes when the charge current determines its reactance (about 15-30 ohms at a frequency of 50 Hz). As a result of the conversion, the charging current of the capacitor will be determined in such a way that the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the input current will repeat the phase and shape of the sine wave of the input voltage. The health check of the PFC unit is carried out by measuring the DC voltage on the capacitor of the rectifier network. In operating mode, it should be around 380V, in standby approximately 300V.

Main features of the device LG 42LM669T:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LC420EUG (PE) (F2).
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with a power supply unit, controlled by a PWM controller UC2843BD1 (Step-Up LED), AAT2430AISX, R5F100BCAFP. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type STF19NF20, PHT4NQ10LT * 6 are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 42LM669T TV are generated by the EAX64744201 power supply module or its analogs using L6599AD (PWM Resonant), FAN7930BG (PFC), STR-A6059H (Standby) microcircuits and power switches of the STF13NM60N * 2, STF10NM60N * 2 type.
