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 LED repair
Possible manifestations of malfunctions
- PANASONIC TX-32DR300ZZ does not turn on, the indicators on the front panel do not light up or flash. The TV does not respond to the control buttons and 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 MSD3463-T8C1. It is necessary to measure its output supply voltages, and in case of their absence, check the serviceability of the power switches (10N65) of the converters and rectifier diodes for the probability of breakdown in semiconductor PN junctions.
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter, as a rule, can operate in an emergency mode in the short-circuit mode, and in the event of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse is usually cut 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) OB5269CP, if they have no visible damage to the case and an outright short circuit between the terminals, are usually checked by replacing.
- There is no picture, but there is sound and reaction to the remote control. Or, for a second, the image may appear immediately after switching on.
Often in such cases, there is no backlighting of the LED panel. The reason for this may be an open circuit in the LED circuit, or a problem in stabilizing their power supply.
It is impossible to check the line of series-connected LEDs without a special current source, and it is unsafe for them to use any voltage sources above 12V for this purpose. Then all that remains is to open the panel and check each LED separately. Usually, Chinese multimeters with 9V power supply lightly light 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 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 indicator blinks or is on constantly, the TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control.
Repair or diagnostics of the MSD3463-T8C1 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). Complicated repair of MB (SSB) board is in some cases possible and practiced by repairmen. To do this, check and, if necessary, replace the CPU elements: MSD3463-GSA, SPI FLASH: MX25L6406, AUDIO: TPA3110D2. BGA chip faults are usually easy to detect by warm-up.

 If the PANASONIC TX-32DR300ZZ has no image, but there is sound, the LC320DXY display backlight often simply does not work. Moreover, in LED TVs, the LEDs inside the panel usually fail, less often the LED driver.
In such cases, you can see a barely noticeable image with a successful hit of external light on the screen.
Replacing the LEDs requires disassembling the LC320DXY LCD panel, a process that requires experience and qualifications from the technician. We do not recommend doing such work on your own to the owners of TVs and craftsmen who do not have experience in repairing LCD panels

If there is no image, and the backlight is on, the screen becomes slightly lighter when turned on, and in an open TV you can see the light through the holes in the panel case.

In this case, the panel may also be faulty - damage to strips, loops, for example, as a result of moisture ingress after unsuccessful washing of the screen, the T-CON (Timing Controller) board may be faulty. But the main board MainBoard MSD3463-T8C1 often turns out to be faulty, a software failure is also possible.
Then, first of all, it is necessary to check the panel supply voltage, the fuses on the T-CON board, as well as the supply and reference voltages of the column and line drivers - VGH, VGL, Vcom.
If these measurements are within normal limits, it is necessary to trace the passage of LVDS signals from the MainBoard MSD3463-T8C1 with an oscilloscope, as well as synchronizing signals to the loops with drivers.
Flooded or unsuccessfully washed screens of LED-TVs can be restored, in about half of the cases, usually if significant damage has not formed in the cables and panel strips.



Before replacing the SI2151 tuner, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first check the software and the supply voltage at its outputs. It is also necessary to make sure that the tuner and processor can exchange data via the I2C bus
We remind users again! Attempts to repair the PANASONIC TX-32DR300ZZ TV without proper qualifications and the necessary experience can lead to its complete non-repairability!

 To reduce the backlight current in LED drivers with an MP3394S (MP3394) controller, increase the resistance of the resistor from pin 6 (ISET) to the case. The maximum current in each channel (in milliamperes) for the resistor Rset (in kilo-ohms) is determined from the ratio 790 * 1.23V / (Rset + 0.4).
Additional MainBoard Repair
The appearance of the MainBoard MSD3463-T8C1 is shown in the figure below:

Main features of the PANASONIC TX-32DR300ZZ device:
Installed matrix (LED panel) LC320DXY or K320WD92.
Matrix control uses Timing Controller (T-CON) 6871L-4445.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter combined with the MSD3463-T8C1 main board is used, controlled by the MP3394S PWM controller. The keys of the AOD256 type are used as power elements of the LED driver.
The power module is combined with the MainBoard and is made according to the AC / DC flyback voltage converter using OB5269CP microcircuits and 10N65 power switches.
