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
The FUSION FLTV-19L16B TV, like many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. Often, by the external signs and nature of the damage to the elements, it becomes possible to draw some conclusions and determine a further algorithm for finding a defect before making the necessary measurements at control points. Experienced repairmen are often aware of the causes of the defect and possible consequences, for example, from ring cracks in the soldering of the leads of the elements, as well as from swollen capacitors or resistors burnt to coal dust and other external indirect signs.
Sometimes the FUSION FLTV-19L16B TV simply does not turn on. No control lights on the front panel are lit or blinking, the TV does not respond to the remote control and does not make any sounds or any signs of life when turned on. The most likely cause of the malfunction is the failure of the LKP-LP055 common power module. If it is working properly, it is necessary to check the processor batteries on the SSB (Main Board). When diagnosing and repairing the power supply, first of all, replace the swollen filter capacitors of the secondary rectifiers and check the fuse and, if it is broken, it is necessary to identify the cause. Often in such cases, an avalanche (thermal) breakdown is detected in the power semiconductor elements of the module — rectifier diodes and transistors in the primary circuit.
If a breakdown of the power switch is detected, it should be remembered that in a switching power supply (IIP) it does not fail by itself for no reason that should be sought by checking other elements of the primary circuit - electrolytic capacitors, a PWM controller, which can only be checked replacement, as well as other semiconductor elements (diodes, transistors, zener diodes).
If the FUSION FLTV-19L16B has no image, there is sound and the channels are switched, there is a possibility of a malfunction in the backlight LED circuit of the M185B3-PA1 panel, or their power converter - LED driver. Sometimes when you turn on the image appears and disappears immediately. In such cases, it is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the power filter of the LED driver itself, including in the secondary rectifier of the main PSU.
To check the health of the LEDs and contact connections in their power circuit, the panel must be disassembled.
When trying to identify a break in the LED lines, it should be borne in mind that it is difficult to do this without disassembling the panel. For example, a current source is needed to open PN junctions connected in series.
The CV181L-Y motherboard must be checked if there is no reaction to the remote control and function buttons, the standby indicator blinks or lights up continuously. In such cases, if the converters or power regulators of the microcircuit are working, a software update may be necessary.
In some cases, it is necessary to check or replace (if necessary) the elements of the MB board (SSB) - 25Q32. In cases where the BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by the local heating method.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all it is necessary to check the voltage of the varicaps of the tuner CDT-3SP5I2-37, which is usually within 30-33V, as well as other supply voltages at the terminals of the tuner.
Once again, we remind TV users: you should not make attempts to repair it yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and the necessary qualifications! Trust the repair only to professionals with sufficient experience in the field of electronic equipment repair.


FIRMWARE FOR SPI FLASH  ----------->   FUSION FLTV-19L16B V1L06, Main: CV181L-Y, Panel: M185B3-PA1


 In case of failures in Winbond's SPI FLASH software, we recommend that you replace the chip itself with a new one. Sometimes Winbond microcircuits can recover for some time after high-temperature exposure, for example, heating with a soldering station or a lighter, which is sometimes enough to read its contents.
To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with a PWM controller MP3389EF (MP3389), or its analogue OB3362VP (28 pin), it is necessary to proportionally increase the total resistance of the resistors from terminal 9 (ISET) to the housing. The maximum current in each of the 12 channels (in milliamps) for the resistance Rset (in kilo-ohms) is determined from the ratio 1000 * 1.22V / Rset. With a parallel connection of channels, the currents are added up.
Repair MainBoard
The appearance of the MainBoard CV181L-Y is shown in the figure below:
The CV181L-Y motherboard uses the MST6M181VG processor, combined with a scaler and installed using the BGA technology.
It is advisable to start the repair of this MainBoard by checking the linear stabilizers and voltage converters necessary to provide power to the processor nodes: 1.2V, 2.5V, 3.3V. If there is no image, but the display backlight is working properly, it is necessary to check the power of the 5V or 12V LCD panel, depending on the type of panel used, which should be measured directly on the LVDS connector. If the TV does not exit Stand-by mode and does not respond to the remote control and control buttons, if the necessary supply voltages are available, update the SPI Flash software.

CV181L-Y can be used in TVs:
FUSION FLTV-19L16B (Panel M185B3-PA1), SUPRA STV-LC1977WLD (Panel M185BGE-P02), SUPRA STV-LC2477FLD (Panel HK236WLEDM-IH61H), THOMSON T22E32HU (Panel LM215WF4 (TL)(E7)).
Main features of the FUSION FLTV-19L16B device:
Installed matrix (LED-panel) M185B3-PA1.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter is used, combined with the power supply, controlled by the MP3389EF PWM controller. As power elements of the LED driver, keys of the type ME15N10-G are used.
The necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the FUSION FLTV-19L16B TV are generated by the LKP-LP055 power module or its analogs using PWM SOT23-6 73831 microcircuits.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a CV181L-Y module, using 25Q32, YD1517P, SGM330A and others.
The tuner CDT-3SP5I2-37 provides the reception of television programs and tuning to channels.

Attention! The M185B3-PA1 panel of the FUSION FLTV-19L16B 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.
