General recommendations for TV LCD repair
It is advisable to start repairing a SUPRA TV with a chassis with a careful external examination of both internal and external elements. Often, for certain external signs, it may be possible to draw certain conclusions about the reasons for the failure of certain circuit elements even before the necessary measurements are made, which will determine the further algorithm for troubleshooting and localizing the defect. Charred paint on the upper layer of resistors, electrolytic capacitors of rectifier filters swollen after boiling, cracked soldering on the leads of heating elements or transformers can often suggest the causes of the defect and possible consequences.
If the TV does not turn on, none of the indicators on its front panel are on or blinking. Also, if the TV does not respond to the remote control and buttons, does not make any sounds or any signs of operability when turned on, there is a certain probability that the power module is defective and needs repair. Sometimes a problem with similar manifestations can occur only in the absence of processor power, which is typical for certain SUPRA models. In general, first of all, it is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the filters of the secondary rectifiers and the fuse at the mains input. If it is cut off, then the diodes of the rectifier bridge and the key transistor of the converter, which can be located either on a separate heatsink or integrated with a PWM controller into a common microcircuit, should be checked for a breakdown of PN junctions. Options are possible.
It should be borne in mind that in the practice of repair, it is extremely rare for key transistors in switching power supplies (SMPS) to fail without reasons that should be looked for by checking other components, for example, a key breakdown can provoke faulty elements of damper circuits, or dried electrolytic capacitors or broken primary resistors power supply 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.
In cases where the SUPRA STV-LC1503 TV has lost the image, but there is sound and all other functions are operational, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the inverter (converter for powering the backlight lamps). When you turn on the TV, the image may appear briefly and disappear immediately. It should be borne in mind that with such manifestations, the lamps themselves fail, the malfunction of which can be detected by replacing, connecting for diagnostics to the connectors that are known to be serviceable and suitable in power.
Often attempts to repair the inverter are hampered by the fact that the diagnosis of a malfunction is complicated by the work of its protection, which is designed to turn off the inverter in emergency modes - when lamps are depressurized, breaks or short circuits in high-voltage connections and other emergency situations. Blocking protection for localizing a defect is popular among repairmen.
In cases of attempts to repair the MST718BE motherboard, it is necessary to check the performance of the stabilizers or power converters of its microcircuits and, if possible, update the software (software). BGA chips can in most cases be diagnosed by local heating. Complex repair of MB (SSB) is possible only in the conditions of a service center with the necessary equipment. Testing or replacing components MST718BE TDA9886 STV82X7-80 NC / PT2314 TDA1517P requires the necessary training and professional skills to repair modules at the component level. Problems associated with BGA soldering technologies can be diagnosed by the warm-up method.
Owners of the STV-LC1503 TV are advised to contact only qualified specialists with experience for repair! Self-repair attempts without the appropriate knowledge and skills can lead to serious negative consequences!
