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!

General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible malfunctions
- PHILIPS 40PFS5073 TV does not turn on. There are no signs of operability. The indicators on the front panel do not light up or blink, the TV does not respond to the control buttons.
In such cases, the main power supply, the AC / DC converter of the mains voltage, which is combined with the MainBoard MSD3663-T5C1, may be faulty. Its output voltages should be measured and, in their absence, the serviceability of the power switches and rectifier diodes in the converters should be checked for possible breakdown.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually operate in an emergency mode in a short-circuit mode, and in case of a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse often breaks.
Mos-Fet keys used in switching power supplies usually fail due to a malfunction of other elements, which can disable it in key mode, or provoke an excess of the maximum current or voltage values. These can be circuits supplying the PWM controller, damper or frequency setting circuits, or OOS (negative feedback) elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers (PWM), in the absence of external damage and a short circuit between the terminals, are checked by replacing them with a known good one.
- There is no picture, but there is sound and all other TV functions are working. The image sometimes appears for a second immediately after switching on and disappears.
In some of these cases, the malfunction is caused by the lack of display backlighting. The reason can sometimes be in the power supply of the LEDs, but more often in their malfunction (breakdown or breakage), sometimes in the violation of the contact connections of the LED strips.

To test the LED strips, in order to open all the transitions of the LEDs, several tens of volts or more are needed; it is best to use a current source for such purposes. The breakage of several PN junctions connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or tester. In such cases, it is necessary to open the panel and check each LED. If your multimeter cannot open the LED junctions in forward bias, you can sometimes detect the presence of a protective zener diode PN junction by connecting the probes in the opposite direction. If the zener diode is cut off or broken in K / Z, then the LED is faulty and needs to be replaced.
- 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 MSD3663-T5C1 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 SPI FLASH: GD25Q64. Malfunctions in BGA chips are usually easy to detect by warm-up.
If there is no reception of television channels, but the TV is working properly from external devices, first of all, you need to check the supply voltage of the ST43WS-2A-E (Si2151) & CDT-9NS16J-RD41 K-TU5 (DVB-S) tuner and update the software. I2C communication pulses must be monitored with an oscilloscope.
Attention to TV owners! Attempts to repair PHILIPS 40PFS5073 on your own are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!

Attention! PHILIPS 40PFS5073 LED TV panel K400WDK9 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.
