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!

HARPER 24F470T
General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible malfunctions
- TV HARPER 24F470T does not turn on and does not give 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 TP.S512.PA63. Its output voltages should be measured and, if they are absent, the serviceability of the power switches (TO-252) and rectifier diodes in the converters should be checked for possible breakdown.
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter can operate in short-circuit mode, and in case of short-circuit in the elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse usually breaks.
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 LD5530, in the absence of visible damage or outright short circuits between the terminals, are checked by replacing them with new ones, or known to be in good working order.
- 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.
Usually, in such cases, a malfunction is detected in the nodes of the backlight of the LED panel. The reason may be in the breakage of the LEDs, in the stabilization of their power supply, or in the violation of the contact connections of the strings connectors,
Without a special current source, it is impossible to check the line of LEDs connected in series, and it is unsafe for them to use any voltage sources above 12V for this purpose. Then it remains only to open the panel and check each LED separately. Typically, Chinese multimeters with a 9V power supply lightly light up one 3-volt LED, if you connect the probes to it in the forward direction, the red probe to the anode, the black one to the cathode. For dual 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its emergency zener diode can serve as an indicator of LED health. In the event of a malfunction of the LED, its zener diode will either be cut off or broken into the K / Z.
- 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 TP.S512.PA63 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 some cases, to repair the MB (SSB) board, it may be necessary to replace the chips - CPU: S2T512, SPI Flash: GD25Q64, Audio: YD1517P with new or known good ones. In cases where BGA technologies are used, defects are usually localized by heating.
If the TV operates normally from external devices, but does not tune into TV channels, the XF-3SDT-H (R840) tuner may be faulty. In such cases, first of all, you should make sure that the supply voltage is present at its corresponding terminals. It is also necessary to make sure that the data exchange between the tuner and the processor is possible via the I2C bus. Sometimes the reason for the inoperability of the tuner may be a software failure.
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.
