General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible malfunctions
- The SONY KD-43XE8077 TV does not turn on and does not show any signs of operability at all. There is no reaction to the remote control and control buttons from the front panel.
With such manifestations, in some cases, the Adapter power module is faulty.
The owner of the TV can purchase an external power supply adapter type AC / DC 19.5V independently and its repair is not always advisable. In any case, the simplest typical defects characteristic of most IIP schemes can be easily detected and eliminated after opening. It is then necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, you should check the power switches and rectifier diodes of the converters for the probability of a short circuit.
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.
Mos-Fet power switches, used in switching power supplies, sometimes fail due to a malfunction of any other elements that can put it out of operation in key mode or create an excess of the maximum permissible parameters of the switch. These can be elements supplying the PWM controller, frequency-setting or damping circuits, or negative feedback elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers, in the absence of visible damage or explicit short-circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing with new ones, or obviously working.
- 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.
Often in such cases, there is no LED backlight. Often the cause is a malfunction of the LEDs (open circuit, short circuit ...), or the connectors of the strips (strings), less often the LED driver is malfunctioning.
It is impossible to detect a break in the LED line without disassembling the panel with a simple multimeter. The LEDs are connected in series and to open their transitions, a voltage of several tens of volts is required. Ideally, a current source is suitable for such purposes. You can open the panel and check each LED separately. Typically, Chinese multimeters light up a single 3-volt LED, if you connect the probes in the forward direction to it (red probe to the anode, black to the cathode). In dual 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its emergency zener diode can serve as an indicator of health. In the event of a LED malfunction, its zener diode will either be cut off or broken into short-circuit.
- The indicator on the front panel blinks, the TV does not turn on in the operating mode, it does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the motherboard 1-981-326-12 should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the microcircuit and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (software). When repairing an MB board, you need to check its components CPU, NAND Flash, Audio. Defective items should be replaced. If chips with BGA soldering technology are used, a problem in its implementation is detected by the local heating of the chip.
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 voltage of the CE551ZP tuner and update the software. The pulses from the I2C bus must be controlled with an oscilloscope.
It should be remembered! Attempts to self-repair a SONY KD-43XE8077 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!

Attention! The LC430EQY (SK) (A1) panel of the SONY KD-43XE8077 LED TV is its most expensive element.
Avoid hitting the glass and excessive pressure on the screen surface to avoid damage to the LED panel!
It is unsafe to get any liquid on the screen. Sometimes one drop of water is enough, if it flows down the glass onto the cables, the TV can become unrepairable.
