General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible manifestations of malfunctions
- DNS K42A619 does not turn on, LEDs on the front panel are off or flashing. The TV does not respond to the control buttons and the remote control.
A malfunction in such cases, first of all, should be looked for in the power elements of a switching power supply (SMPS) - a mains voltage converter (AC / DC), which in this TV model is combined with the MainBoard KL42GT618 main board. It is necessary to measure its secondary output voltages, and if they are absent, check the power switches (CS8N65) and rectifier diodes in the converters for a short circuit.
In case of any breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter can operate in an emergency mode of a short circuit, and with a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or the current sensor at the source of the key often breaks off.
The breakdown of power switches (MosFet) in switching sources is sometimes caused by malfunctions of other circuit elements, for example, in the circuits supplying the PWM controller, frequency setting or damper, as well as in the circuits of Negative Feedback (OOS) stabilization. PWM controllers (PWM) FAN6755W, if they do not have visible damage to the case and an outright short circuit between the pins, are usually checked by replacing.
- There is no picture, but there is sound and reaction to commands from the remote control. Or the image appears immediately after switching on and disappears.
A malfunction is usually in these cases most likely in the backlight units of the display matrix. The reason for this may be an open circuit in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
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 on the front panel blinks, the TV does not turn on in operating mode, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the KL42GT618 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). Sometimes it is necessary to check or replace (if necessary) elements of the MainBoard - CPU: MT8227AAKU, SPI Flash: 25Q32BVSIG, SOUND: STA333W; TDA18273, IT6633E-P. In cases where a BGA processor is used, its malfunction is usually detected by a local warm-up method.
If there is no reception of TV channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all, you need to check the Tuner power supply voltage and update the software. I2C communication pulses must be monitored with an oscilloscope.
Owners and users of the DNS K42A619 TV should remember that self-repair without special knowledge, skills and qualifications may be fraught with negative consequences that can lead to the complete non-repairability of the device!

Attention! The HA1T683 / V420HJ2-P01 Rev. C1 panel of the DNS K42A619 LED TV is an expensive and unreliable element.
Do not allow any impact 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.
