General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Possible malfunctions
- The SONY KDL-37W5710 TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and the control panel buttons, the indicators do not light or flash.
In some of these cases, a malfunction is detected in the 3H267W-1 power module. It is necessary to measure its output voltages and, in case of their absence, check the serviceability of power switches and rectifier diodes in the converters for possible breakdown.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually work abnormally in the short circuit mode, and during short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse 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 SSC9503 (16), A6079M, in the absence of visible damage or frank fault 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.
These manifestations can be triggered by the power module, or by inverter defects, as well as by the distortion of the currents in the lamps due to their uneven wear. After checking all the electrolytic capacitors of the filters that are involved in the power supply of the inverter, it is necessary to ring in its converter the power switches for breakdown and the secondary windings of the transformers for an open.
Sometimes, for diagnostic purposes, it is necessary to disable the inverter protection. In such cases, special care must be taken when working, and the protection circuits should be restored immediately after the repair is completed.
- 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 1-878-942-22 should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the microcircuit and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (software). Board repair and chip replacement MC10147F1 410, MB91F313A, NAND Flash K9F1208UOC, EEPROM 24C32 are carried out with the necessary equipment, and the corresponding element base. Faults associated with the application of BGA processor soldering technologies can be localized by the heating method.
If you suspect a malfunction of the BTD-HF422T tuner, first of all, you need to verify the correctness of the software, as well as the presence of the necessary voltage levels and pulses of data exchange with the processor via the I2C bus at the corresponding terminals of the tuner.
Attention TV owners! Self-repair attempts by SONY KDL-37W5710 are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device SONY KDL-37W5710:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) T370HW02 V.D.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 1-879-067-11.
The VIT71865.50 inverter is used to power the backlight lamps, it is controlled by the OZ964GN PWM controller. As power elements of the inverter, keys of the type P2504BDG are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the SONY KDL-37W5710 TV are generated by the 3H267W-1 power module or its analogs using SSC9503 (16), A6079M microcircuits.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a module 1-878-942-22, using microchips MC10147F1 410, MB91F313A, NAND Flash K9F1208UOC, EEPROM 24C32 and others.
The BTD-HF422T tuner provides TV reception and channel tuning.
