REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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!

LT-32A340R Specifications
GOLDSTAR 32A340R
General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible malfunctions
- The GOLDSTAR 32A340R TV does not turn on at all. Control lamps do not light up or blink. The TV on the remote control and control panel buttons does not respond.
In some of these cases, the fault is detected in the 40-P081C0-PWD1XG power module. It is necessary to measure the output voltages in its secondary circuits, and if they are completely absent, the serviceability of the power switches and rectifier diodes should be checked for a possible breakdown (short circuit).
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits of the converter, it can usually work in an emergency mode in a short circuit mode, and with a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or current sensor in the source of the key is most often cut off.
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) VIPER17L, FAN6754 are usually checked by replacing them with new ones, or knowingly working.
- 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.
In some of these cases, the malfunction is caused by the lack of display backlighting. The reason may be both in the power supply of the LEDs, in their serviceability (breakdown or breakage), as well as in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.
To check the health of the LED circuit, it is better to use a current source with a maximum voltage of 200V. We do not recommend using any voltage sources for this purpose. You can check each LED separately with a simple Chinese multimeter (powered by 9 volts) in the P-N transition test mode. If you connect the red probe of the multimeter to the anode of the LED, and the black one to its cathode, then the 3-volt LED will light up slightly, and in the opposite direction you can detect the transition of the emergency zener diode. The serviceability of the PN junction of the Zener diode indirectly indicates the serviceability of the LED-a
- The TV does not go into operation, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator on the front panel is on or blinking.
Repair or diagnostics of the 40-MS82S0-MAD2XG motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters required to power the microcircuits and matrix. If necessary, you should update or replace 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 chips MST6E182VS-LF, 25Q32A-100HIP, 24C64, K4T51163QT-BCF7, IT6633E-P, TPA3110D2 and other possible faulty components. Failures associated with BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed 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 terminals of the F35WT-3-E tuner match. 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.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the GOLDSTAR 32A340R TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

Attention! Panel LVW320CSTM E3 V1 LED TV GOLDSTAR LT-32A340R 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.
