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 repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Repair of TVs, as well as other devices, it is advisable to start with an external examination. 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. If charred resistors, swollen electrolytic or cermet capacitors, ring cracks in the soldered terminals of transformers or heating elements are detected, it is advisable to establish the causes and consequences of the malfunction that has arisen, as well as to check the connected elements and assemblies.
If the MYSTERY MTV-3230LT2 does not turn on, no control lights on the front panel light up or blink; therefore, there is a very high probability of a power module malfunction. In some cases, only the processor power regulator may be faulty. In the absence of swollen filter capacitors of the secondary rectifiers, the diagnostics of the power supply should be started by checking the fuse and, if it is broken, it is first necessary to check all the power semiconductor elements of the primary circuit - diodes and transistors for the possibility of an avalanche or thermal breakdown.
Power switches in switching power supplies (SMPS) fail extremely rarely for no reason and, if they are broken, it is necessary to look for a malfunction in the stabilization circuits by checking electrolytic capacitors, semiconductor devices, and resistors in the primary circuit. The cause may be a malfunction of the PWM controller chip, which can only be checked by replacing it with a new or obviously working one.
If the MYSTERY MTV-3230LT2 TV does not have an image, but there is sound, a malfunction in the backlight circuits of the LED panel V320BJ7-PE1 is likely.
To check the health of the LEDs, as well as contact connections in the ruler circuit, it is necessary to disassemble the panel.
When trying to detect a break in the LED lines, it should be taken into account that it is difficult to do this without disassembling the panel. For example, a current source is needed to open PN junctions connected in series.
If the motherboard MS308C1-ZC01-01 is faulty, first of all it is necessary to check all the linear stabilizers and power converters of its chips, and also, if necessary, update the software (software). Sometimes you can check the health of MB only by replacement.
In cases of complex repairs of MB (SSB) and in the presence of the necessary skills and equipment, sometimes it may be necessary to replace its SPI Flash chips: GD25Q64 and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the application of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the heating method.

Owners of MTV-3230LT2 TVs are recommended to contact qualified specialists with experience for repairs! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to serious negative consequences!


SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM  / SERVICE MANUAL   ------------------>    MS308C1-ZC01-01


 To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with the AP3064 controller (AP3064AM), it is necessary to proportionally increase the resistance of the resistor from pin 2 (ISET) to the housing. The maximum current in each of the four channels (in milliamperes) for the Rset resistor (in kilo-ohms) is determined from the ratio 1200 / Rset.
