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!

REPAIR / SERVICING TV FUSION FLTV-32H20B

Technical description and composition of the FUSION FLTV-32H20B TV, panel type and applicable modules. The composition of the modules.

FUSION FLTV-32H20B
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
It is advisable to start the repair of the FUSION FLTV-32H20B TV with a careful external examination of both internal and external elements. In some cases, visible external damage to the elements can suggest the direction of troubleshooting and localization of the defect even before the start of the necessary measurements at the control points of the nodes of electronic circuits. 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.
Malfunctions of the power module can be expressed in different ways, for example, the FUSION FLTV-32H20B does not turn on at all and the control lights on its front panel do not light up and do not blink, there are no signs of operability. It should be noted that with the same external manifestations, the processor power regulator (converter) may be faulty. First of all, it is necessary to replace the swollen capacitors of the rectifier filters, if any. If the mains fuse is broken in the power supply, in most cases a breakdown of the power key (s) is detected, which can be integrated with the PWM controller, or a separate field-effect transistor can be used. The rectifier bridge diodes and the electrolytic capacitor of the mains rectifier filter should also be checked.
It should be borne in mind that in the practice of repair it is extremely rare that key transistors in switching power supplies (SMPS) fail for no reason that should be sought by checking other components, for example, a breakdown of the key can provoke faulty elements of the damper circuits, or dried electrolytic capacitors or dangling primary resistors BP circuits involved in the stabilization process. In this case, all semiconductor elements of the binding of the PWM controller microcircuit are subject to verification, which it is desirable to verify by replacement.
If the FUSION FLTV-32H20B has no image, but there is sound and the TV is controlled by the remote control, a malfunction in the backlight circuits of the LM315TA-T01 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.
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.
On the T.MS18VG 81b 12145 motherboard, in case of a malfunction, you should first check the performance of all stabilizers or power converters of the microcircuits and, if necessary, update the software (software).
In some cases, it is necessary to check or replace (if necessary) the elements of the MB board (SSB) - SPI FLASH: Winbond 25Q32. In cases where the BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by local heating.
If the TV works normally from external devices, but does not tune to television channels, the tuner CDT-3SP512-36 may be malfunctioning. In such cases, first of all, you should make sure that there are supply voltages at its corresponding terminals, as well as the power supply of varicaps (30-33V).
Remember! Attempts to self-repair by users of the FUSION FLTV-32H20B TV without the appropriate qualifications and necessary experience can lead to serious negative consequences!


FIRMWARE FOR SPI FLASH  ----------->   FUSION FLTV-32H20B, Main: T.MS18VG 81b 12145, Panel: LM315TA-T01



In the event of a failure in the software of the SPI FLASH chip from Winbond, we recommend that you replace it with a new one. Sometimes faulty SPI Winbond microcircuits can be restored for a while after a soldering station is heated by a hairdryer. Usually this is enough to read its contents.

Attention! The panel of the LM315TA-T01 FUSION FLTV-32H20B LED TV is an expensive and unreliable element.
