General recommendations for repairing TV LCD
Possible malfunctions
- The TOSHIBA 37XV500PR does not turn on. There are no signs of operability. The indicators on the front panel do not light up and do not blink, the TV does not respond to the control buttons.
Most likely in this case, the main switching power supply (IIPS) PE0531 is faulty. It is then necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, you should check the power switches (10N60, P10NK80) and the rectifier diodes of the converters for a short circuit probability.
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.
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 A6169 (8), STR-Z2589, 2A20112 (PFC), in the absence of visible damage or explicit short-circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing with new, or obviously working.
- There is no image, but there is sound and all the other functions of the TV work. The image sometimes for a second appears immediately after turning on and disappears.
These manifestations can be triggered by a power module, or by defects in the inverter, as well as a distortion of the currents in the lamps due to their uneven wear. If all the electrolytic capacitors of the filter according to the inverter power supply are serviceable, you should make sure that the lamps are working, then you need to check the converter keys and the secondary windings of the transformers.
If in diagnosing a malfunction, it is necessary to disable the inverter protection, there is a risk of failure of the power elements of the inverter, and special care is required during work, and after they are finished, it is necessary to restore the protection circuits for further safe operation of the TV by the owner in normal mode.
- 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 PE0532 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). Sophisticated MB board repair (SSB) is in some cases possible and practiced by repairmen. To do this, check and, if necessary, replace the elements FLI32652H, HY5PS121621C, CXB1444R, STA333W, 0747EFI T5CB5-6UK1 F1789ZAE. BGA chip malfunctions are usually easy to detect by warming up.
Before changing the tuner ENG37E11GF, if there is no possibility of tuning to television channels, you should make sure that there are supply voltages, which must be measured at the corresponding terminals of the tuner and check the software for correctness. The pulses of the data exchange of the tuner with the processor can be controlled by an oscilloscope
Attention TV owners! TOSHIBA 37XV500PR self-repair attempts are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!
