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!

Technical Specifications FLTV-32L40B
FUSION FLTV-32L40B
General repair guidelines for TV LCD LED
The FUSION 32L40B TV, like many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. It often happens that visible damage to elements or connections helps determine the direction of the troubleshooting. Electrolytic capacitors of filters with a swollen body, as well as ring cracks formed in the soldered leads of heating elements, or a layer of coal on burnt resistors sometimes prompt the repairman the causes of the malfunction and possible consequences.
Malfunctions of the power module can be expressed in different ways, for example, the FUSION 32L40B 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. 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 secondary rectifiers of the converter. In the event of a fuse breaking, the cause 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.
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 resistors in the stabilization circuits. The PWM controller chip may also cause a breakdown of the power switch of the converter.
If there is no image when you turn on the FUSION 32L40B, or it appears for a second and disappears, but there is sound, most likely there is a malfunction in the backlight LED circuit of the ST315A04-5 panel, or in their power converter. It is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the filter of the secondary rectifiers in the general power supply unit.
To check the health of the LEDs and contact connections in their power 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.
Diagnostics and repair of the LAD.MV.D1 motherboard 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.
If there is no way to replace the MB (SSB) card, you need to check the health of its elements - SPI FLASH: W25Q32. Defective components should be replaced.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the FUSION 32L40B TV without the appropriate qualifications and experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

The power of the sound system 16 W (2x8 W) provides two speakers. The audio processing system NICAM STEREO is used.
The external interface (communication with other devices) is supported by standard input and output connectors: antenna input (RF), AV, VGA, HDMI x3, USB. To connect a computer or laptop to this TV model, a VGA (D-Sub 15) connector is used on the TV case, this interface supports resolutions: 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1360x768.
Attention! The F3ION FLTV-32L40B LED TV panel ST315A04-5 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.
