In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!

SHARP LC-40LE540RU
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
It is advisable to start repairing the SHARP LC-40LE540RU TV with a careful external examination of both internal and external elements. According to some external signs of a change in the state of some elements, it is sometimes possible to make assumptions about the nature of the defect, as well as determine the further direction of the troubleshooting. Experienced repairmen are often aware of the causes of the defect and 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 case of a power supply module malfunction, external manifestations may be different, for example, the SHARP LC-40LE540RU does not turn on at all and there is no indication of the control lights on the front panel. With the same symptoms, the stabilizer (converter) of the power supply to the control processor may be faulty. 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 broken, then you should check for breakdown of the PN junctions of the rectifier bridge diodes and the key transistor of the converter, which can either be on a separate radiator or integrated with a PWM controller in a common chip. Possible options.
It should be borne in mind that in the practice of repair it is extremely rare that key transistors in switching power supplies (SMPS) fail for no reason that should be sought by checking other components, for example, a breakdown of the key can provoke faulty elements of the damper circuits, or dried electrolytic capacitors or dangling primary resistors BP circuits involved in the stabilization process. In this case, all semiconductor elements of the strapping of the PWM controller chip are subject to verification, which it is desirable to verify by replacement.
If the SHARP LC-40LE540RU has no image, there is sound and the channels are switched, there is a possibility of a malfunction in the backlight LED circuit of the LK400D3LB43C 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.
To check the health of the LEDs and contact connections in their power circuit, the panel must be disassembled.
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.
The DUNTKF915WE06 QPWBXF915WJN2 motherboard must be checked if there is no reaction to the remote control and function buttons, the standby indicator blinks or lights up continuously. In such cases, if the converters or power regulators of the microcircuit are working, a software update may be necessary.
The failure of the TOSV-G001D tuner is established after checking the software and all the supply voltages at its terminals, including the varicap supply voltage (30-33V).
It should be remembered! Attempts to repair the SHARP LC-40LE540RU 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!

PSU Advanced
According to the conditions of compliance with modern world standards for household switching power supplies, the RDENCA441WJQZ module provides for the use of a Power Factor Correction unit. The PFC circuit is a flyback converter based on the SCY99102 PWM controller. The reactance of an electrolytic capacitor of a line filter at a frequency of 50-60 Hz is usually not more than 20-30 ohms and its charge directly from the network through open diodes could reach tens of amperes per pulse if no filtering were applied.
As a result of the PFC conversion, an increased voltage on the capacitor (about 380V) cannot directly open the rectifier diodes, on the anode of which the voltage will always be slightly less (about 300V) and then its charging current will always be limited by the elements of the PWM controller. As a result, the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the consumed current will repeat the shape and phase of the input sinusoidal voltage. The presence of an increased voltage (+ 380V) on the network capacitor indicates the serviceability of the PFC node.
The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the SHARP LC-40LE540RU device:
Installed matrix (LED panel) LK400D3LB43C.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) DUNTK4593TP.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with a power supply, controlled by the MAP3222S PWM controller. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type AOD450, MDD4N20Y are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the SHARP LC-40LE540RU TV are generated by the FSP148-3FS03 power supply module or its analogs using L6599 (PWM Resonant), SCY99102 (PFC), VIPer27L (Standby) microcircuits, and power switches of the KF5N60, TK6A60D type.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a QPWBXF915WJN2 module, using CPU chips: IXD491WJ; DRAM: K4B2G1646C-HCH9; SOUND: STA333BW and others.
The TDSV-G001D tuner provides television reception and channel tuning.

Attention! The LK400D3LB43C panel of the SHARP LC-40LE540 LED TV is an expensive and unreliable element.
Avoid any impact on the glass and pressure on the surface of the screen to avoid damage to the LED panel!
It is also unsafe to get liquid on the screen. Sometimes one drop is enough if it flows down the glass onto the cables so that the TV becomes unrepairable.
