REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!

REPAIR / SERVICING TV TCL 19P21

Technical description and composition of the TCL 19P21 TV, panel type and applicable modules. The composition of the modules.
TCL LED  Model: 19P21

Panel: M185XW01
LED backlight: Edge LED 2 Lamp CCFL
LED driver (backlight): 40-RA1911-DRB2XG
Power Supply (PSU): PE041C0 08-PE041C0-PW200AA
MOSFET Power: MDF10N65B
MainBoard: 40-MT10L1-MAE2XG

Tuner: DT91CT-2-E
Specifications 19P21
TCL 19P21
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- The TCL 19P21 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.
In some of these cases, a fault is detected in the power module. It is necessary to measure the output voltages in its secondary circuits, and if they are completely absent, check the serviceability of power switches (MDF10N65B) and rectifier diodes for possible breakdown (short circuit).
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.
Breakdown of power switches (MosFet) in pulsed sources is sometimes caused by malfunctions of other circuit elements, for example, in circuits supplying a PWM controller, frequency-setting or damper ones, as well as in negative feedback circuits (OOS) of stabilization. PWM controllers (PWM), if they do not have visible damage to the chassis and open short circuit between the terminals, are usually checked by replacement.
- There is no image, but there is sound, it responds to the remote. Or the image appears when you turn it on and immediately disappears
As a rule, in such cases there is no display backlight. The reason for this may be a break in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
To detect a break in the LED lines without disassembling the panel, a current source is required. It is impossible to open transitions connected in series with a simple multimeter; voltage of several tens of volts is necessary.
- The TV does not turn on, the indicator indicates standby or operating mode, or blinks.
Repair or diagnostics of the 40-MT10L1-MAE2XG motherboard should begin by checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the chips 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: MT5310CHOU, SPI FLASH: 32Q64-104HIP, EEPROM: 24C32WP, AUDIO: TAS5707 and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the application of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the heating method.
Before changing the DT91CT-2-E tuner, if it is not possible to tune to television channels, make sure that there are supply voltages that must be measured at the corresponding tuner pins and checked for correctness. The pulses of the data exchange of the tuner with the processor can be controlled by an oscilloscope
TV users and owners need to remember that attempts to self-repair a TCL 19P21 TV without the appropriate qualifications and necessary experience can lead to serious negative consequences!

Attention! The M185XW01 panel of the TCL 19P21 LED TV is an expensive and unreliable element.
Avoid any impact on the glass and pressure on the surface of the screen to avoid damage to the LED panel!
It is also unsafe to get liquid on the screen. Sometimes one drop is enough if it flows down the glass onto the cables so that the TV becomes unrepairable.
