General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Repair of the SHARP LC-37GA6E TV is advisable to start with an external examination of all its constituent elements, both internal electronic components and external. Inspection is also subject to body elements, control buttons, screen, connectors and cords. Often, according to the external signs and the nature of some damage, it is possible to draw preliminary conclusions and determine a further algorithm for finding and localizing a malfunction. Experienced repairmen are often aware of the causes of the defect and the possible consequences, for example, from ring cracks in the soldering of the leads of the elements, as well as from swollen capacitors or resistors burnt to coal dust and other external indirect signs.
In cases when the SHARP LC-37GA6E TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and buttons, no indicators on the front panel light up or blink, and there are no sounds and no signs of operability when turning on, the RENDCA136W PSD- power supply module is most likely faulty 0437 or, which is much less common, there is no processor power on the motherboard. When repairing the power supply, it is advisable to start the diagnostics by checking the mains fuse and, in the event of an open circuit, the reason should be sought in the power semiconductor elements of the pulsed flyback converter of the main PSU. First of all, it is necessary to check the diodes of the bridge of the rectifier of the mains voltage and the power switch of the converter, which can be installed separately on the radiator, or integrated with a PWM controller.
If a breakdown of the power switch of the flyback converter of the power supply unit is detected, it should be remembered that it does not fail without any reasons that should be sought by checking other elements of the primary circuit - electrolytic capacitors, a PWM controller that can only be checked by replacement, as well as others semiconductor elements (diodes, transistors, zener diodes).
When using the Active Power Factor Correction (CMC) circuitry in the power module, the search for faulty elements is somewhat more complicated.
If the SHARP LC-37GA6E does not have an image, but there is sound and the TV is controlled by the remote control, a malfunction in the display backlight nodes is likely. The lamps or the power converter - inverter 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 inverter, and check the LCD lamps by connecting external and obviously serviceable for diagnosis to the connectors.
Diagnosis and repair of the inverter is often complicated by the organization of special protection circuits, which is necessary for fire safety and turns off the inverter in any emergency situation, for example, when the lamps are worn or depressurized. Often, to localize a defect, its blocking is required.
In such cases, the risk of failure of the power elements of the inverter is most likely, and special care is required during work, and after their completion, it is necessary to restore the protection circuit for further safe operation of the TV by the owner in normal mode.
Attention to the owners! Attempts at self-repair of the SHARP LC-37GA6E TV are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!
