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
Repair of electronic equipment usually begins with its external inspection and diagnosis of the malfunction. In this case, you should inspect all the internal components of the TV SUPRA STV-LC1985WL, as well as the external elements of the housing. Based on visible external changes in the state of the components, it is usually possible to determine the further direction of troubleshooting and localization of the defect before making the necessary measurements. Electrolytic capacitors of filters with a swollen body, as well as ring cracks or a layer of coal on burned-out resistors formed in soldered terminals of heating elements, sometimes tell the repairman the causes of the malfunction and possible consequences.
In the absence of any signs of operability, when the SUPRA STV-LC1985WL does not turn on and does not signal anything with the control lights on the panel, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the TV power module. With the same manifestations, the power regulator of the control processor on the motherboard may be faulty. It is advisable to start the troubleshooting of the power supply module by checking the state of the electrolytic capacitors of the rectifier filters and the mains fuse. Defective capacitors should be replaced. If the mains fuse is broken, it is necessary to check first of all the power semiconductor elements - rectifier diodes and transistors, which are often found in such a state of breakdown.
In most cases, key breakdowns in switching power supplies (SMPS) do not occur for no reason and you should look for other faulty circuit elements that could provoke a defect. This can be dried electrolytic capacitors in the primary circuit, and faulty damper elements, as well as dangling resistors or punched semiconductor elements in the stabilization circuits. Possible defective PWM chip from the manufacturer.
In cases where the SUPRA STV-LC1985WL TV has lost its image, and the sound is there and all the other functions are operational, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the LED driver (a converter for powering the 720p HD panel backlight LEDs). When you turn on the TV, the image may appear briefly and disappear immediately. It must be borne in mind that with such manifestations the LEDs themselves also fail.
Often there is a need for disassembling the panel to check the health of the LEDs, as well as contact connections in the connectors and soldering.
An open in the LED lines connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or tester without disassembling the panel. To open all the transitions, several tens of volts are needed, and it is best to use a current source for such purposes.
Diagnostics and repair of the motherboard 5800-A8M260-0020 is carried out by checking the performance of the stabilizers or power converters of the module chips. In some cases, a software update is required.
If it is not possible to replace the MB (SSB) card, you must check the health of its elements - CPU: MST6E181VS-LF-Z1, / FLASH: MX25L3206E. Defective components should be replaced.
Before changing the HFT2-8F / 115CW tuner, if it is not possible to tune to television channels, make sure that there are supply voltages that must be measured on the corresponding tuner pins.
Attention! For users and owners of STV-LC1985WL TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, we categorically do not recommend attempting self-repair in order to avoid negative consequences that could lead to complete non-repairability of the device.

Attention! The V185B1-LE1 panel of a SUPRA STV-LC1985WL 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.
