REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

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!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

Take care during handling the LCD module with backlight unit.
Must mount the module using mounting holes arranged in four corners.
• Do not press on the panel, edge of the frame strongly or electric shock as this will result in damage to the screen.
• Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such as pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel.
• Protect the module from the ESD as it may damage the electronic circuit (C-MOS).
• Make certain that treatment person’s body are grounded through wrist band.
• Do not leave the module in high temperature and in areas of high humidity for a long time.
• The module not be exposed to the direct sunlight.
• Avoid contact with water as it may a short circuit within the module.
• If the surface of panel become dirty, please wipe it off with a soft material. (Cleaning with a dirty or rough cloth may damage the panel.)
If you want to replace with the new backlight (CCFL) or LIPS part, must disconnect the AC power because high voltage appears at inverter circuit about 650Vrms.
Handle with care wires or connectors of the inverter circuit. If the wires are pressed cause short and may burn or take fire.
Adjustment
Apply to 58.4 cm (23 inch) Wide monitor made in Monitor Factory Gumi Korea) or made in accordance with the standard of Gumi Factory process.
Adjustment must be done as fixed sequence, and adjustment sequence can be modified after agreement with the responsible R&D engineer considering mass-production condition.
