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!

TOSHIBA 26SL738R
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Repair and diagnostics of any electronic device, in particular the TOSHIBA 26SL738R, it is advisable to start with a careful external examination of internal and external elements. Visible damage to elements can sometimes indicate the direction of the search for a defect even before the necessary measurements are taken. Ring cracks in the soldering of the leads of the heating elements, swollen electrolytic capacitors, a charred paint layer on the resistors - all this for the repairman can be a significant clue in the assumptions about the causes and consequences of the malfunction.
Faults in the 715G4293-P01-H20-001U power module can be expressed in different ways, for example, the TOSHIBA 26SL738R does not turn on at all and the control lights on its front panel do not light up and do not blink, and there are no signs of operability. It should be noted that with the same external manifestations, the processor power regulator (converter) may be faulty. 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.
Power switches in pulsed 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 reason may be a malfunction of the PWM controller chip A6069H (8), LD7523GS (8), which can only be checked by replacing it with a new or obviously working one.
If the TOSHIBA 26SL738R does not have an image, but there is sound and the TV is controlled by the remote control, a malfunction in the backlight circuits of the LC260EXN-SCA1 panel is likely. The LEDs or the power converter - LED driver may be faulty. Often in such cases, when you turn on the TV, an image appears and immediately disappears. First of all, it is necessary to verify the operability of the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filter supplying the LED driver, and check the LEDs, connecting obviously known good diagnostics.
Often there is a need for disassembling the panel to check the health of the LEDs, as well as contact connections in the connectors and soldering.
It is impossible to check the LED line for breaks without disassembling the panel with a multimeter or tester. For these purposes, it is necessary to open all series-connected PN junctions and a voltage of the order of tens of volts will be required, and ideally, a current source.
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).
In the absence of tuning to the local television channels, you should make sure that the voltage of the varicaps (30-33V) and other supply voltages on the terminals of the tuner ENV57S01 ...
Remember! Attempts to self-repair by users of the TOSHIBA 26SL738R TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to serious negative consequences!

Attention! The LC260EXN-SCA1 panel of the TOSHIBA 26SL738 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
