General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Diagnostics of the malfunction of the TV SONY KDL-40S2530, like all others, it is advisable to start with an external examination of possible changes, both external and internal elements. Any external damage can sometimes prompt the repairman to take further steps to determine the malfunction of the TV and localize the defect. Electrolytic capacitors of filters with a swollen case, as well as ring cracks or a layer of coal on burned-out resistors formed in the soldered terminals of the heating elements, sometimes tell the repairman the causes of the malfunction and possible consequences.
If the TV does not turn on, no indicators on its front panel are lit or blinking. Also, if the TV does not respond to the remote control and buttons, it does not make any sounds or any signs of operability when it is turned on, there is a certain chance that the G2A 1-871-504-12 power supply module is defective and needs repair. Sometimes with similar manifestations a problem can only occur in the absence of processor power, but this happens much less often. The diagnostics of the power supply should always be started by checking the fuse and, if it is broken, it is first necessary to check the rectifier bridge diodes and the power switch for the likelihood of an avalanche or thermal breakdown.
It should be remembered that the N-FET keys used in flyback converters rarely fail for no reason that must be sought by checking other elements of the circuit. Often the breakdown is caused by malfunctions of electrolytic capacitors or semiconductor elements in the primary circuit, or by a break in the resistors in the stabilization circuits. The PWM controller chip can also cause a breakdown of the power switch of the converter.
If the power module uses an active KKM circuit (power factor control), troubleshooting is somewhat more complicated.
Sometimes the SONY KDL-40S2530 TV does not have an image, but there is sound, or the image appears and immediately disappears. In this case, there is a high probability of a malfunction of the backlight converter, or of the lamps themselves, which can be checked by replacement. In such cases, it is necessary to verify the serviceability of all electrolytic capacitors of the filter according to the power supply of the inverter itself, including in the power supply unit (power supply unit).
Diagnosis and repair of the inverter is often complicated by the organization of special protection circuits, which is necessary for fire safety and turns off the inverter in any emergency situation, for example, when the lamps are worn or depressurized. Often, to localize a defect, its blocking is required.
In these cases, special care must be taken in view of the risk of failure of the power elements. After completing all repair work, it is imperative to restore the protection circuits for full and safe further operation of the TV by the user.
Motherboard A1214950E, AV: A1188414E, to be checked if there is no reaction to the remote control and function buttons, the standby indicator blinks or stays on. In such cases, if the power supply circuits of the microcircuits are working, a software update may be necessary.
We recommend the owners of the KDL-40S2530 TV for repair only to qualified specialists with experience! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to serious negative consequences!

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device SONY KDL-40S2530:
Installed matrix (LCD-panel) LTY400WT-LH1.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 400WSC4LV0.4.
A PCB2676 inverter is used to power the backlight.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the SONY KDL-40S2530 TV are generated by the power module 1-871-504-12, or its analogs using CXD9841P, MIP2H2, FA5501AN (PFC) microcircuits.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a module 1-869-850-15.
Tuner BTD-HF441Z 1-869-657-12 - 172714612 - CFE-050-TUE-08 provides the reception of television programs and tuning to channels.
