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 40TL838R
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
Repair of electronic equipment usually begins with its external inspection and diagnosis of the malfunction. In this case, you should examine all the internal components of the TOSHIBA 40TL838R TV, as well as the external elements of the housing. 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 from the characteristic signs of typical TV defects, for example, ring cracks formed in the soldering of the element leads, swollen rectifier filter capacitors, charred resistors and other circuit elements.
In the absence of any signs of operability, when the TOSHIBA 40TL838R does not turn on and does not signal anything with the control lights on the panel, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the power supply module FMB33A 0404879 V71A00022900 N150A001L REV.01 of the TV. With the same manifestations, the power regulator of the control processor on the motherboard may be faulty. When diagnosing and repairing the power supply, after replacing the swollen capacitors of the secondary rectifier filters (if any), you must first check the mains fuse. When it is broken, the power elements of the K12A50D transistors and rectifier bridge diodes should be checked for avalanche (thermal) breakdown.
Mos-Fet keys used in switching power supplies (SMPS) rarely fail for no reason to look for when checking other circuit elements. Often the breakdown is caused by malfunctions of electrolytic capacitors or semiconductor elements in the primary circuit, or by a break in the resistors in the stabilization circuits. The PWM controller chip A6069H AN6961 can also cause a breakdown of the power switch of the converter.
If the TOSHIBA 40TL838R 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 LTA400HV01 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.
To check the health of the LEDs, as well as contact connections in the ruler circuit, it is necessary to disassemble the panel.
To check the LED lines for breaks without disassembling the panel, for example, a current source will help. It is impossible to open series-connected PN junctions with a simple multimeter, a voltage of the order of several tens of volts is required.
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 cases of attempts to repair the MB board (SSB), it is necessary to check the health of its elements -. which may require replacement with new ones. If a BGA processor is installed, there is a possibility of a violation of the soldering of the contacts of its conclusions with the board (it is diagnosed by heating).
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 40TL838R TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we categorically do not recommend attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-repairability of the device.

 The appearance of the MainBoard PE1000 is shown in the figure below:
PE1000
PE1000 can be used in TVs:
TOSHIBA 40TL838R (Panel LTA400HV01), TOSHIBA 46TL838R (Panel LTA460HW02 T01), TOSHIBA 32TL838R (Panel LTA320HW01 1080p Full HD).
PSU Advanced
The N150A001L power supply module is made using the Power Factor Correction (PFC) scheme to eliminate multiple AC harmonics introduced into the power supply by the device. The PFC node is a Step-Up Converter based on the AN6961 PWM controller, which evenly distributes high-frequency pulses of the charging current of the electrolytic capacitor of the rectifier filter of the mains voltage over a period of 50 Hz. The current of its charge in this case will already be determined not by its reactance (usually 10-30 ohms for the network frequency), but by the elements of the converter. As a result, a change in the amplitude of the pulses (envelope) of the consumed current of the converter will repeat the shape and phase of the input sinusoidal voltage. The availability of an increased voltage (about + 380V) in the operating mode on the capacitor of the line filter indicates the serviceability of the PFC node.
The appearance of the power supply
Main features of the TOSHIBA 40TL838R device:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) LTA400HV01.
The matrix control uses the Timing Controller (T-CON) SD120PBMB4C6LV0.1.
The LED driver SSL400 is used to power the backlight LEDs, it is controlled by the SSL100SN PWM controller. A transformer 3422250017CDC is installed in the LED driver converter. As the power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type STA3250 FDD86102 C9298H are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the TOSHIBA 40TL838R TV are generated by the N150A001L power module or its analogs using A6069H, FAN6961 (PFC) microcircuits and K12A50D type power switches.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a PE1000 module, using .CPU chips: MSD388USV-V6; DRAM: K4B1G1646G-BCK0; NAND Flash: TC58NVG1S3ETA00BKH; SPI Flash: MX25L1606EM2I-12G, EN25F20-100GIPTY and others.
The ENGS7305D5F tuner provides TV reception and channel tuning.
