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
TOSHIBA 40RL955RB TV, like many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. Specific external damage to some elements can sometimes indicate further actions to determine the malfunction of the TV and localize the defect before the necessary measurements are taken. Carbonized paint on the upper layer of resistors, electrolytic capacitors of rectifier filters swollen after boiling, cracked soldering at the terminals of heating elements or transformers can often suggest the cause of the defect and possible consequences.
If the power supply module V71A00022901 N150A002L REV01 N11-150P1A is faulty., External manifestations may be different, for example, the TOSHIBA 40RL955RB does not turn on at all and there is no indication of the indicator lights on the front panel. With the same symptoms, the stabilizer (converter) of the power supply to the control processor may be faulty. When repairing the power supply, it is advisable to start the diagnostics by checking the mains fuse and the electrolytic capacitors of the filters of the converter secondary rectifiers. In the event of a fuse breaking, the reason should be sought in the power semiconductor elements of the pulse converter of the main power supply. First of all, it is necessary to check the diodes of the bridge of the rectifier of the mains voltage and the power switch (s) of the converter.
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.
Sometimes the TOSHIBA 40RL955RB TV does not have an image, but there is sound, or the image appears and immediately disappears. In this case, there is a high probability of a malfunction of the LTA400HM22 T03 panel backlight LED converter, or a break in the LED circuit is possible. In such cases, first of all, it is necessary to verify the serviceability of all the electrolytic capacitors of the filter by supplying the LED driver itself, including in the power supply unit (power supply unit).
To check the health of the LEDs and contact connections in their power circuit, the panel must be disassembled.
A break in the line of LEDs connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or tester without disassembling the panel. To open all the transitions, several tens of volts are needed, and it is best to use a current source for such purposes.
Diagnostics and repair of the motherboard PE1070 H V28A00140701 is carried out by checking the operability of the stabilizers or power converters of the module chips. In some cases, a software update is required.
Before replacing the tuner ENGS7305D5F, if there is no tuning to the channels, first you need to check the supply voltage at its terminals, including the power supply of varicaps (30-33V).
Attention! For users and owners of 40RL955RB TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we strongly recommend against attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-repairability of the device.

 The appearance of the MainBoard PE1070 is shown in the figure below:
PE1070
PE1070 can be used in TVs:
TOSHIBA 23RL933RB (Panel LC230EUE SE A1), TOSHIBA 32RL933RB (Panel LTA320HN03 T03), TOSHIBA 32RL955RB (Panel LTA320HN03 T03), TOSHIBA 40RL955RB (Panel LTA400HM22 T03), TOSHIBA 32RL953RB (Panel LTA320HN03), TOSHIBA 40RL933RB (Panel LTA400HM22 LJ96-06007A).
PSU Advanced
The N150A002L power module is installed on the 40RL955RB TV using the PFC (Power Factor Correction) circuitry, which acts as an active filter to eliminate the higher harmonic components of the current consumption. The boost converter based on the FAN6961 PWM controller does not allow the electrolytic capacitor of the input rectifier filter to be connected directly to the network directly through open diodes, when the value of the charge current determines its reactance (about 15-30 ohms at a frequency of 50 Hz). As a result of the conversion, the charging current of the capacitor will be determined in such a way that the envelope of the high-frequency pulses of the input current will repeat the phase and shape of the sine wave of the input voltage. The health check of the PFC unit is carried out by measuring the DC voltage on the capacitor of the rectifier network. In operating mode, it should be around 380V, in standby approximately 300V.
The appearance of the power supply
Key Features of the TOSHIBA 40RL955RB:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LTA400HM22 T03.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) GA_60HZ_FHD_V0.3.
The LED driver SSL400_0E1B is used to power the backlight LEDs, it is controlled by the SSL110SN PWM controller. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the MDD4N20Y type are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the TOSHIBA 40RL955RB TV are generated by the power module N150A002L, or its analogs using A6069, FAN6961 (PFC), L6577B microcircuits.

Attention! The LTA400HM22 T03 panel of the TOSHIBA 40RL955 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.
