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!

General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Possible malfunctions
- TOSHIBA 32AV52R does not turn on and does not show any signs of performance at all. Does not blink indicators and does not respond to control buttons.
Failure in such cases should begin to be sought in the PK101V0980I power supply circuits. It is necessary to measure its output supply voltages, and in case of their absence, check the serviceability of the power switches of the converters and rectifier diodes for the probability of breakdown in PN semiconductor junctions.
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter, as a rule, can emergency work in the short circuit mode, and during short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse usually 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 and reaction to commands from the remote control. Or the image appears immediately after turning on and disappears.
The defect can be caused by problems in the nodes or elements of the backlight of the display, or in the power supply of the lamps or inverter. If all the electrolytic capacitors of the filter according to the power supply of the inverter are working, make sure that the lamps are working, then you need to check the converter keys and the secondary windings of the transformers.
Sometimes, for diagnostic purposes, it is necessary to disable the inverter protection. In such cases, special care must be taken during work, and the protection circuits should be restored immediately after the repair is completed.
- The TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator blinks or signals standby mode.
Repair or diagnostics of the STA40T 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).
If the TV works normally from external devices, but does not tune into television channels, the ENG36E18KF 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.
Once again, remind users! Attempts to independently repair the TOSHIBA 32AV52R TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

Main features of the TOSHIBA 32AV52R device:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) LTA320AP01.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 320AP03C2LV0.1.
To power the backlight used inverter SSI320_4UA01.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the TOSHIBA 32AV52R TV are generated by the PK101V0980I power supply module, or its analogs.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is an STA40T module.
The ENG36E18KF tuner provides TV reception and channel tuning.
