General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible malfunctions
- The LG 42LN548C TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and the control panel buttons, the indicators do not light up and do not blink.
Failure in such cases should begin to be sought in the EAX64905301 power supply circuits. It is necessary to measure its output voltages, and if they are absent, check the operability of the power switches (MDF11N65B) of the converters and rectifier diodes for a short circuit probability.
In case of diode breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter can operate in emergency short-circuit mode without output voltages, and during short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse and / or current sensor at the source of the key usually breaks.
Breakdown of power switches (MosFet) in pulsed sources is sometimes caused by malfunctions of other circuit elements, for example, in circuits supplying a PWM controller, frequency-setting or damper ones, as well as in negative feedback (OOS) stabilization circuits. PWM controllers (PWM) SSC1S311A (PWM flyback), NR891D, if they do not have visible damage to the case and open fault between the terminals, are usually checked by replacement.
- There is no image, but there is sound and reaction to the remote control. Or for a second, the image may appear immediately after switching on.
A malfunction is usually most likely in these cases at the backlight nodes of the display matrix. 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 indicator blinks or lights constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the EAX65120904 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 some cases, to repair the MB board (SSB), it may be necessary to replace the chips - LGE2111A-T8, STA3808WF with new or obviously working ones. In cases where BGA technologies are used, defects are usually localized by the heating method.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all you need to check the power supply of the TDSS-G101D tuner and update the software. The pulses from the I2C bus must be controlled with an oscilloscope.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the LG 42LN548C TV without the appropriate qualifications and necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

Main features of the device LG 42LN548C:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LC420DUE (SF) (R1).
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870ะก-0452A.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with a power supply unit, controlled by the MAP3202 PWM controller (MAP3202SIRH). As the power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type FDT86106, STF10NM60N are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the LG 42LN548C TV are generated by the EAX64905301 power module, or its analogs using SSC1S311A (PWM flyback), NR891D microchips and MDF11N65B type power switches.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is an EAX65120904 module, using LGE2111A-T8 chips, STA3808WF and others.
The TDSS-G101D tuner provides TV reception and channel tuning.
