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 any repair and diagnostics of the TOSHIBA 46XF350PR TV with a careful external examination of the internal and external elements, including case parts, display, buttons and cables. Any external damage can sometimes prompt the repairman to take further steps to determine the malfunction of the TV and localize the defect. Swollen electrolytic or cermet capacitors, charred resistors, ring cracks in the soldered terminals of the elements - all this can significantly help the master to determine the causes and consequences of the malfunction of the TV.
In the absence of any signs of operability, when the TOSHIBA 46XF350PR does not turn on and does not signal anything with the control lights on the panel, the PE0401C1 PE0473B1 power supply module is most likely to be 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 in the practice of repair, usually the power keys of N-Fet converters do not fail due to their poor quality and, in such cases, it is necessary to look for the cause that led to a malfunction and provoked a breakdown of the key. Most often, the culprits of the accident are dried electrolytic capacitors or dangling resistors in the primary circuit, or the PWM controller chip itself may be faulty. It is also necessary to check all the semiconductor elements of the stabilization circuit in the primary and secondary circuits.
In cases where the Power Factor Corrector (PFC) is used in the power supply, troubleshooting can be a bit more complicated.
If, when you turn on the TV, the image appears and immediately disappears, or is initially absent when you turn on, but there is sound and other functions work, there is a high probability of a malfunction of the inverter (power converter for the backlight). In such cases, the lamps, the inverter and the common power module are subject to verification, in which the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filter supplying the inverter should be checked.
Often, attempts to repair the SS1460HD24-M (S) REV0.2 75012994 inverter are hampered by the fact that the diagnosis of the malfunction is complicated by the operation of its protection, which is designed to turn off the inverter in emergency conditions - when the lamps are depressurized, breaks or short circuits in high-voltage connections and other emergency situations. Lock protection to localize the defect is popular among repairmen.
In such cases, special care should be taken during diagnostics, and after completion of all repair work, it is necessary to restore the circuit and the inverter protection for further safe operation of the TV.
On the PE0406A1 motherboard, in case of a malfunction, you should first check the performance of all power supply stabilizers of the microcircuits and, if necessary, update the software (software).
Owners of the 46XF350PR TV are advised to contact qualified professionals with experience for repairs! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to serious negative consequences!

PE0406 can be used in TVs:
TOSHIBA 40XF350PR (Panel LTA400HT-LH4), TOSHIBA 40XF355D (Panel LTA400HT-LH4), TOSHIBA 46XF350PR (Panel LTA460HT-LH3).
PSU Advanced
The PE0401 power module is made using the Power Factor Correction (PFC) scheme to eliminate multiple AC harmonics introduced into the power supply by the device. The PFC is a Step-Up Converter based on the FA5501AP PWM controller, which evenly distributes high-frequency impulses of the charging current of the electrolytic capacitor of the rectifier filter of the mains voltage over a period of 50 Hz. The current of its charge in this case will already be determined not by its reactance (usually 10-30 ohms for the network frequency), but by the elements of the converter. As a result, a change in the amplitude of the pulses (envelope) of the consumed current of the converter will repeat the shape and phase of the input sinusoidal voltage. The availability of an increased voltage (about + 380V) in the operating mode on the capacitor of the line filter indicates the serviceability of the PFC node.

Key Features of the TOSHIBA 46XF350PR:
Installed matrix (LCD panel) LTA460HT-LH3.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) 75012995.
To power the backlight used inverter SS1460HD24-M (S).
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the TOSHIBA 46XF350PR TV are generated by the PE0401 power module or its analogs using the STR-Z4579, STR-W6765, STR-A6169 (Standby DIP-8), FA5501AP (PFC) microcircuits and power switches of the FP20W60C3 (PFC) type )
