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 repair
RUBIN with LG chassis, like other TVs, it is advisable to start repairing with a careful examination of external and internal elements and modules. Sometimes, based on the visible changes in the components of the device, it is possible to draw some conclusions and determine the direction of further troubleshooting even before the necessary measurements begin. Ring cracks in the soldering of the leads of the heating elements, swollen electrolytic capacitors, a charred layer of paint on the resistors - all this for the repairman can be a significant clue in assumptions about the causes and consequences of a malfunction.
If the RB-23K101F TV does not turn on, does not emit any sounds when turned on, as well as no indicators on the front panel are lit or blinking, there is a high probability of a malfunction in the power module. In some cases, only the regulator or power converter of the control processor may be faulty, which is typical for some RUBIN models. In general, first of all, it is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the filters of the secondary rectifiers and the fuse at the mains input. If it is cut off, then the diodes of the rectifier bridge and the key transistor of the converter, which can be located either on a separate heatsink or integrated with a PWM controller into a common microcircuit, should be checked for a breakdown of PN junctions. Options are possible.
As a rule, switches in switching power supplies (SMPS) are quite reliable and rarely fail without reasons that should be looked for by checking other circuit components - electrolytic capacitors, resistors and semiconductor elements of the primary circuit. The PWM microcircuit is checked by replacing it with a known good one.
If, when you turn on RUBIN RB-23K101F, there is no image, or it appears for a second and disappears completely, but there is sound, most likely either the backlight lamps or their power converter (inverter) are faulty. It is necessary to check the electrolytic capacitors of the filter of the secondary rectifiers in the common power supply. It must be borne in mind that in the event of a disconnection of the inverter protection (for the purpose of diagnostics) there is a risk of failure of the power elements of the inverter and take special care. After carrying out repair work, the protection circuits must be restored for the further safe operation of the TV.
When trying to repair the motherboard, you should first check the serviceability of linear stabilizers or microcircuit power converters and, if necessary, update the software (software). In cases of complex MB (SSB) repairs and with the necessary skills and equipment, it may sometimes be necessary to replace its MST6M16JS-LF, EN25F16, 24C64 chips and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the warm-up method.
Attention! Users and owners of RB-23K101F TVs who do not have the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience are strongly discouraged from trying to repair themselves in order to avoid negative consequences that can lead to the complete non-repairability of the device.
