REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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 recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible manifestations of malfunctions
- SUPRA STV-LC42T400FL does not turn on and does not show any signs of operability at all. Does not blink indicators and does not respond to control buttons.
In such cases, the AC / DC converter of the mains voltage, which is combined with the main board HK-T.SP9202P53, is often faulty. It is necessary to measure its output voltages, and in case of their absence (full or partial), the serviceability of the power switches of the converters and rectifier diodes should be checked for a possible short circuit.
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter, as a rule, can operate in an emergency mode in a short-circuit mode, and in the event of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse is usually cut off.
Mos-Fet power switches used in switching power supplies sometimes fail due to a malfunction of any other elements that can disable it in the key mode, or create an excess of the maximum permissible key parameters. These can be elements supplying a PWM regulator, frequency setting or damper circuits, or elements of negative feedback in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers, in the absence of visible damage or outright short circuits between the terminals, are checked by replacing them with new ones, or knowingly working properly.
- There is no picture, but there is sound and reaction to the remote control. Or, for a second, the image may appear immediately after switching on.
The malfunction in most of these cases is found in the nodes and elements of the LED panel backlighting. The reason may be both in the power supply of the LEDs, in their serviceability (breakdown or breakage), as well as in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.
To check the LED strips for breakage without disassembling the panel, for example, a current source will help. It is impossible to open series-connected PN junctions with a simple multimeter; a voltage of the order of several tens of volts is required.
- The TV does not turn on, the indicator signals standby or operating mode, or blinks.
Repair or diagnostics of the HK-T.SP9202P53 motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the microcircuits and matrix. If necessary, you should update or replace the software (software). In cases of attempts to repair the MB (SSB) board, it is necessary to check the serviceability of its elements - SPI Flash 25Q32, which may require replacement with new ones. If a BGA processor is installed, there is a possibility of a violation of the soldering of the contacts of its pins with the board (indicated by warming up).
We remind users again! Attempts to repair the SUPRA STV-LC42T400FL TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

Attention! SUPRA STV-LC42T400FL LED TV panel V420HJ-P01 Rev.C2 is an expensive and unreliable element.
Do not allow any impacts on the glass and pressure on the screen surface to avoid damage to the LED panel!
It is also unsafe for liquid to spill onto the screen. Sometimes one drop is enough if it drips down the glass onto the cables to make the TV unrepairable ................
