General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible manifestations of defects
- DNS M28AM8 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.
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 TP.VST59.P86. It is necessary to measure its output voltages, and if they are absent (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 of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually operate in an emergency mode in a short-circuit mode, and in case of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse often breaks.
Breakdown of Mos-Fet switches used in switching power supplies is often caused by malfunctions of other elements, for example, in the power supply circuit of a PWM controller, in frequency setting or damper circuits, as well as in negative feedback stabilization. PWM microcircuits (PWM) IC_Power are usually checked by replacing them with new ones, or known to be working properly.
- There is no image, there is sound, it reacts to the remote control. Or, immediately after switching on for a second, the image may appear and immediately disappear.
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 blinks or is on constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the TP.VST59.P86 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: TSUMV59XU, SPI Flash: 25Q32BSIG, AUDIO: TPA3110D2 microcircuits are performed with the necessary equipment and the corresponding element base. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can be localized by the warm-up method.
In cases where there is no tuning for terrestrial or cable TV channels, you should make sure that the software is correct, as well as that the supply voltages on the Tuner outputs are consistent. It is also necessary to check with an oscilloscope the presence of pulses of data exchange between the tuner and the processor via the I2C bus.
Users and owners of TVs should remember that attempts to repair the DNS M28AM8 TV on their own without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to serious negative consequences!

Attention! The MT3151A05 panel of the DNS M28AM8 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.
