General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- The SONY KD-55XE8096 TV does not turn on at all. The control lights do not light or flash. The TV on the remote control and the control panel buttons do not respond.
With such manifestations, a malfunction is most likely to be detected in the APDP-209A1 power supply module.
The owner of a TV set usually purchases an external power source such as APDP-209A1 Adapter AC / DC 19.5V 209W on its own, it often happens that its repair is impractical, but the simplest defects that are characteristic of IIPS can be seen and easily fixed after opening. 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.
In case of any breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter can operate in emergency short circuit mode, and during short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or the current sensor at the source of the key more often 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 frank short-circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing with new, or obviously working.
- There is no image, but there is sound, it reacts to the remote control. Or the image appears when you turn on and immediately disappears
The most likely in these cases is a malfunction of the LED backlight. Usually the cause of the malfunction is in the breakage of the LEDs, or in the connectors of the LED strips, but sometimes the LED driver also turns out to be faulty.
When diagnosing, it is necessary to take into account that it is impossible to check the open in the chain of LED lines without disassembling the panels using a tester or multimeter. To open all PN junctions connected in series, a voltage of the order of several tens of volts is required, and ideally, a current source. By opening the panel, each LED can be checked separately. Typically, Chinese multimeters light up a single 3-volt LED, if you connect probes in the forward direction to it. 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). In cases of complex repairs of MB (SSB) and in the presence of the necessary skills and equipment, sometimes it may be necessary to replace its CPU chips, NAND Flash, Audio and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the application of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the heating method.
If the TV works normally from external devices, but does not tune into television channels, the CE551ZP tuner may be malfunctioning. In such cases, first of all, you should make sure that there are supply voltages at its corresponding conclusions. It is also necessary to make sure that the tuner and processor can exchange data via the I2C bus. Sometimes the cause of the inoperability of the tuner may be a software failure.
Attention! For users and owners of KD-55XE8096 TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we categorically do not recommend attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-serviceability of the device.
