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!

MYSTERY MTV-3218LW
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Repair of the MYSTERY MTV-3218LW TV should begin with a careful external examination of all its components and modules. Often, based on certain external signs, it may be possible to draw certain conclusions about the reasons for the failure of certain elements of the circuit even before the necessary measurements are made, which will determine the further algorithm for troubleshooting and localizing the defect. In most cases, the repairman can guess the causes of the defect and possible consequences by the characteristic signs of typical TV defects, for example, ring cracks formed in the soldering of element leads, swollen rectifier filter capacitors, charred resistors and other circuit elements.
In cases when the MYSTERY MTV-3218LW TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and buttons, no indicators on the front panel light up or blink, and there are no sounds and no signs of operability when turning on, the power module is most likely faulty or there is no power processor on the motherboard (a typical defect of some MYSTERY TVs). It is advisable to start the troubleshooting of the power supply module by checking the state of the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filters and the mains fuse. Defective capacitors should be replaced. If the mains fuse is broken, it is necessary to check first of all the power semiconductor elements - rectifier diodes and transistors, which are often found in such a state of breakdown.
The reasons for the breakdown of the power switch in pulsed power supplies (IIPS) can be different, for example, a malfunction of semiconductor cells or electrolytic capacitors in the stabilization circuits of the primary circuit, as well as a failure in the operation of the PWM controller chip or broken resistors in its bundle.
If the MYSTERY MTV-3218LW TV does not have an image, but there is sound, a malfunction in the LED backlight circuits of the HV320WX2-20A panel is likely. It is also necessary to check the serviceability of the electrolytic capacitors of the filter of the secondary rectifiers of the PSU (power supply) for an overstated ESR.
To check the health of the LEDs and contact connections in their power circuit, the panel must be disassembled.
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.
When trying to repair the motherboard, you should first check the serviceability of linear stabilizers or power converters of microcircuits and, if necessary, update the software (software).
Complex repair of MB (SSB) is possible only in the conditions of a service center with the necessary equipment. Checking or replacing CPU elements: MST6E182VG-LF-Z1, SPI flash: 25Q32BVS1G requires the necessary training and professional skills to repair modules at the component level. Problems associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can be diagnosed by warming up.
If you suspect a malfunction of the F35WT-2A-E tuner, first of all, make sure that there is a supply voltage at the corresponding output of the tuner.
It should be remembered! Attempts to repair the MYSTERY MTV-3218LW TV, in the absence of the necessary qualifications and experience, are categorically not recommended and are fraught with negative consequences, up to the complete non-repairability of the device!

FIRMWARE FOR SPI FLASH  ----------->   MYSTERY MTV-3218LW, Main: MSTV2407-ZC01-01, Panel: HV320WX2-20A

HV320WX2-140 Backlight LEDs: 30331564206 LED315R64-ZC14-01(C), 30331564205 LED315L64-ZC14-01(C)



 To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with the AP3039AM controller and the AP3608EM terminal stage (AP3039AM-G1 & AP3608EM-G1), the AP3608EM (AP3608E) microcircuit should proportionally increase the resistor from terminal 14 (ISET) to the housing. The maximum current in each channel (in milliamperes) for the Rset resistor (in kilo-ohms) is determined from the ratio 1.194V / Rset. In channels connected in parallel, the currents add up.
Repair MainBoard
The appearance of the MainBoard MSTV2407-ZC01-01 is shown in the figure below:
MSTV2407-ZC01-01
MSTV2407-ZC01-01 motherboard is combined with a power module. The processor is MST6E182VG, or MST6E181VG, made using BGA technology. Repair of the power module is carried out according to conventional technology, starting with checking its power elements. The following is a functional check of the converters for the processor power: + 1.3V, + 1.8V, 3.3V, based on SY8008B PWM controllers. The power supply of the built-in DDR 2.5V is generated from a 3.3V source using the P-N junction of the 1N4001 diode (3.3V-0.8V = 2.5V). Standby mode is organized from the linear stabilizer series 1117-3V3. The LCD panel is powered by either 5V or 12V, depending on the type of panel used.
