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
It is advisable to start the diagnosis of a malfunction of the TOSHIBA 37X3000PR TV, like all others, with an external examination of possible changes, both external and internal elements. Visible damage to elements can sometimes suggest further directions for finding a defect before starting the necessary measurements. Elements with visible damage, for example, capacitors swelled up after boiling the electrolyte, charred resistors in certain nodes of the circuit, as well as ring cracks in solders will help the master to guess the causes and possible consequences of the malfunction.
In the case when the 37X3000PR does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and buttons on the front panel, does not blink lights and does not show any signs of operability, most likely in this case the power supply module U01A 75005838 PC BOARD ASSY, PE0252A1, POWER is faulty. In this case, first of all, it is necessary to check the fuse at the mains input. If it is broken, then you should check for breakdown of the PN junctions of the rectifier bridge diodes and the key transistor of the N-FET converter, which can either be on a separate radiator or integrated with a PWM controller in a common chip. Possible options.
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.
In cases using a power module with an active KKM, troubleshooting is sometimes somewhat more complicated.
In cases where the TOSHIBA 37X3000PR TV has lost its image, and the sound is there and all other functions are operational, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the inverter (converter for powering the backlight). When you turn on the TV, the image may appear briefly and immediately disappear. It must be borne in mind that with such manifestations, the lamps themselves also fail, the malfunction of which can be detected by replacement, by connecting to the connectors for diagnostics that are known to be serviceable and suitable in power.
Diagnostics of the LC370WU1 inverter can be difficult due to the operation of the protection, which is organized by the designers to prevent negative consequences or fires in emergency cases, for example, during short circuits or breaks in the lamp power supply circuit, as well as their possible leakage. To make the necessary measurements at control points or to take the necessary waveforms, repairmen have to block the protection circuits in order to be able to diagnose.
All necessary precautions must be observed when disabling the inverter protection during diagnostics and not leaving it disconnected after the repair is completed.
Once again, remind users! Attempts to independently repair the TOSHIBA 37X3000PR TV without the appropriate qualifications and experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!
