REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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!

General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- The SHARP LC-40LE730RU TV does not turn on at all. The control lights do not light or flash. On the remote control and the buttons on the control panel does not respond.
In such cases, the fault should be sought first in the FSP148-3FS01 power supply module. It is then necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, it is necessary to check the power switches and rectifier diodes of the converters for a short-circuit probability.
During thermal or avalanche breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits of any converter, as a rule, it can operate in emergency short circuit mode without output voltages, and during short circuit in the elements of the primary circuit, the main fuse and, less often, the current sensor at the source of the key are most often cut off.
Mos-Fet keys used in switching power supplies usually fail due to a malfunction of other elements that can put it out of operation in key mode or provoke an excess of the maximum current or voltage. It can be supply, damper circuits, or elements of OOS (negative feedback) stabilization. The reason for the breakdown of the power key can be PWM (PWM) FAN7930C, STR-A6069H, SSC9522S. It is checked only by replacement with a known good one.
- There is no image, there is sound, it is responding to the remote control. Or immediately after turning on for a second, the image may appear and immediately disappear.
As a rule, in such cases there is no display backlight. The reason for this may be a break in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
When trying to detect a break in the LED lines, it should be taken into account that it is difficult to do this without disassembling the panel. For example, a current source is needed to open PN junctions connected in series.
- The TV does not enter the operating mode, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator on the front panel lights constantly or blinks.
Repair or diagnostics of the QPWBXF915WJN2 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). Complex repair of MB (SSB) is possible only in the conditions of a service center with the necessary equipment. Checking or replacing elements ZR39691HGCG (RH-IXD425WJZZQ), ZR39301BGCG (RH-IXD378WJZZQ), H5P5162GFR, K4B2G1646C-HCH9, 29F1G08ABADA, 25X20BVNIG required professional level repair components (requires STA333WW) and requires STA333WW. Problems associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can sometimes be diagnosed by warming up.
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 tuner TDSV-G081D and update the software. The pulses from the I2C bus must be controlled with an oscilloscope.
We recommend the owners of the LC-40LE730RU TV for repair only to qualified specialists with the necessary work experience! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to irreversible negative consequences!

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the SHARP LC-40LE730RU device:
The matrix (LED panel) LK400D3LB43 R1LK400D3LB43C is installed.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with the power supply, controlled by the MAP3222 PWM controller. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the 72T02GH type are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the SHARP LC-40LE730RU TV are generated by the FSP148-3FS01 power module, or its analogs using FAN7930C, STR-A6069H, SSC9522S microcircuits.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a QPWBXF915WJN2 module, using the following chips: ZR39691HGCG (RH-IXD425WJZZQ), ZR39301BGCG (RH-IXD378WJZZQ), H5P5162GFR, K4B2G1646C-HCH9, 29F1G08ABADA, 25X20BVNIG, STA333BW (STA3338W).

Attention! The LK400D3LB43 R1LK400D3LB43C panel of the SHARP LC-40LE730 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.
