General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible malfunctions
- The PANASONIC TX-49FXR600 TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and control panel buttons, does not light or blink indicators.
In some of these cases, the main switching power supply, the TNPA6397 module, is faulty. Its output voltages should be measured and, in their absence, the serviceability of the power switches (TK10A60W, TK7A60W) 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 off.
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) FA5696N, FA6B02N, BD9E102FJ, if they do not have visible damage to the case and a frank short circuit between the terminals, are usually checked by replacing.
- There is no image, the screen is black, there is sound, when the screen is illuminated outside, you can sometimes see barely noticeable outlines of the image.
The most likely problem in these cases is a malfunction of the LED backlight. 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,
It is impossible to identify an open circuit in the LED line without disassembling the panel with a simple multimeter. The LEDs are connected in series and a voltage of several tens of volts is required to open their junctions. Ideally, a current source is suitable for such purposes. You can open the panel and check each LED separately. Usually, Chinese multimeters lightly light up one 3-volt LED if you connect the probes to it in the forward direction (red probe to the anode, black to the cathode). For dual 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its emergency zener diode can serve as an indicator of the LED health. In the event of a malfunction of the LED, its zener diode will either be cut off, or broken through in the K / Z.
- The TV does not turn on, the indicator signals the standby or operating mode, or blinks.
Repair or diagnostics of the TNPH1196 motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters required to power the microcircuits and the matrix. If necessary, you should update or replace the software (software). Repair of the board and replacement of CPU, eMMC, DRAM, AUDIO, DC / DC microcircuits are made if the necessary equipment and the corresponding element base are available. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can be localized by the warm-up method.
Before replacing the 24H112A tuner, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first check the software and supply voltage at its outputs. It is also necessary to make sure that the tuner and processor can exchange data via the I2C bus.
Attention to users! Self-repair of the PANASONIC TX-49FXR600 TV without the appropriate qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

The main features of the PANASONIC TX-49FXR600 device:
Installed matrix (LED panel) LC490EQY (SL) (A2).
Matrix control uses a Timing Controller (T-CON) 6870C-0757A.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter combined with a power supply is used, controlled by a BD9486F PWM controller. N-FET TO-220 switches are used as power elements of the LED driver.
The formation of the necessary supply voltages for all nodes of the PANASONIC TX-49FXR600 TV is carried out by the TNPA6397 power module, or its analogs using the FA5696N, FA6B02N, BD9E102FJ microcircuits and power switches of the TK10A60W, TK7A60W type.
MainBoard - the main board (motherboard) is a TNPH1196 module using CPU, eMMC, DRAM, AUDIO, DC / DC and others.
The 24H112A tuner provides reception of television programs and tuning to channels.

Attention! The LC490EQY (SL) (A2) panel of the PANASONIC TX-49FXR600 LED TV is its most expensive element.
Do not allow any impact on the glass and pressure on the screen surface to avoid damage to the LED panel!
Liquid spillage on the screen is unsafe. Sometimes one drop is enough if it drips down the glass onto the cables to make the TV unrepairable.
