REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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!

Technical Specifications STV-55LED15
SHIVAKI STV-55LED15
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Possible manifestations of defects
- The SHIVAKI STV-55LED15 TV does not turn on and does not show any signs of operability at all. There is no reaction to the remote control and control buttons from the front panel.
Typically, with such manifestations, the defect is caused by faulty elements in the MIP550D-CX2 main power module. It is necessary to measure its output voltages, and in case of their absence, check the operability of the power switches of the converters and rectifier diodes for the probability of a short circuit.
In the event of breakdowns in the secondary circuits of the converter, it can usually fail in short circuit mode, and in the event of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or current sensor at the source of the key most 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, in the absence of visible damage or frank short-circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing with new, or obviously working.
- There is no image, there is sound, it responds to the remote control. Or the image may appear for a second when turned on and immediately disappears.
In some of these cases, the malfunction is caused by a lack of backlighting on the display. The reason for this may be a break in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
It is impossible to detect a break in the LED line without disassembling the panel with a simple multimeter. The LEDs are connected in series and to open their transitions, a voltage of several tens of volts is required. Ideally, a current source is suitable for such purposes. You can open the panel and check each LED separately. Typically, Chinese multimeters light up a single 3-volt LED, if you connect the probes in the forward direction to it (red probe to the anode, black to the cathode). In dual 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its emergency zener diode can serve as an indicator of health. In the event of a LED malfunction, its zener diode will either be cut off or broken into short-circuit.
- The indicator blinks or lights constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the T.S512.81 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).
Once again, we remind TV users: you should not make attempts to repair it yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and the necessary qualifications! Entrust repair to professionals with sufficient experience in the field of repair of electronic equipment.
Main features of the SHIVAKI STV-55LED15 device:

Attention! The CX550DLEDM panel of a SHIVAKI STV-55LED15 LED TV is an expensive and unreliable element.
Avoid any impact on the glass and pressure on the surface of the screen to avoid damage to the LED panel!
It is also unsafe to get liquid on the screen. Sometimes one drop is enough if it flows down the glass onto the cables so that the TV becomes unrepairable.
