General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- The SONY KDL-40W905A TV does not turn on and does not show any signs of turning on at all. There are no reactions to the control buttons or the remote control.
Most likely, in this case, the main switching power supply (IIPS) APS-343 is faulty. It is necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, to check for short-circuit probabilities in the converters, power switches and rectifier diodes.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in secondary circuits, any converter can usually work normally in emergency short circuit mode. There are no output voltages. And with a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, as a rule, the mains fuse breaks and less often the current sensor at the source of the key.
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 switch may be its PWM controller (PWM), which is usually checked by replacing a known-good one.
- There is no image, but there is sound and reaction to commands from the remote control. Or the image appears immediately after turning on and disappears.
As a rule, in such cases there is no display backlight. The reason can be both in the power supply of the LEDs, in their serviceability (breakdown or breakage), as well as in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.
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 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 motherboard 1-888-101-31 should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the microcircuit 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 CPU elements: CXD4739GB; NAND Flash: TC58DVG3S0ETA00 (TC58NVG3S0FTAI0) requires the necessary training and professional skills to repair modules at the component level. Problems associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can sometimes be diagnosed by warming up.

Attention! For users and owners of KDL-40W905A TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we strongly recommend against attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-serviceability of the device.

The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the device SONY KDL-40W905A:
Installed matrix (LED panel) YLV4021-02N.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 1-888-061-11.
The LED driver ST4055LD-S03 is used to power the backlight LEDs.
The formation of the necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the SONY KDL-40W905A TV is carried out by the APS-343 power module, or its analogs.
