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
- TV SUPRA STV-LC42T910FL does not turn on and does not show any signs of turning on, does not respond to control buttons and to the remote control.
First of all, in such cases, you should make sure that the common switching power supply (SMPS) - the AC / DC voltage converter of the mains voltage - is working. All source elements in this TV model are located on the MainBoard HK-T.RT2957P60. Then you should measure its output voltages and, in case of their complete or partial absence, it is necessary to check the serviceability of the power switches (TO-252) and the rectifier diodes of the converters for a possible short circuit.
In case of any breakdown of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually operate normally in an emergency short circuit mode. There are no output voltages. And with a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, as a rule, the mains fuse breaks and, less often, the current sensor in the source of the key.
Mos-Fet keys used in switching power supplies usually fail due to a malfunction of other elements that can disable it in the key mode, or provoke an excess of the maximum current or voltage values. These can be circuits supplying the PWM controller, damper or frequency setting circuits, or OOS (negative feedback) elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers (PWM) PWM SOT23-6, in the absence of external damage and a short circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing them with a known good one.
- There is no picture, but there is sound and all other functions work. Sometimes, when turned on, the image appears and disappears for a second.
In such cases, the most likely malfunction of the LED panel backlighting elements. The reason can sometimes be in the power supply of the LEDs, but more often in their malfunction (breakdown or breakage), sometimes in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.
To identify an open circuit in the LED lines without disassembling the panel, a current source is required. It is impossible to open the junctions connected in series with a simple multimeter; a voltage of several tens of volts is required.
- The indicator blinks or is on constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the HK-T.RT2957P60 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). Repair of the board and replacement of CPU: RTD2957M, SPI FLASH: W25Q64 microcircuits are made with the necessary equipment and the corresponding element base. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can be localized by warming up.

Once again, we remind TV users: do not attempt to repair yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and the necessary qualifications! Trust the repair to professionals with sufficient experience in the field of electronic repair.

Attention! The panel ELED42-E68 420HVD02.2 XR LED TV SUPRA STV-LC42T910FL 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.
