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
SUPRA TV made on chassis HK-7050A-V2.08-E (SP208ESA), like many other electronic devices, it is advisable to start repairing by inspecting all external and internal elements. Often, based on external signs and the nature of damage to elements, it becomes possible to draw some conclusions and determine a further algorithm for searching for a defect before taking the necessary measurements at control points. In some cases, defective elements can be seen with the naked eye, for example, charred resistors or swollen sintered capacitors, or electrolytic ones in rectifier filters. The formed ring cracks in the soldering of the terminals of transformers or heating circuit elements are also frequent sources of many malfunctions with a variety of external manifestations.
If the power supply module fails, external manifestations may be different, for example, SUPRA STV-LC2222WD does not turn on at all and there is no indication of the control lamps on the front panel. With the same symptoms, the regulator (converter) of the control processor power supply may be faulty. The first step is to replace the swollen capacitors of the rectifier filters, if any. If the mains fuse in the power supply is broken, in most cases a breakdown of the power switch (s) is detected, which can be integrated with the PWM controller, or a separate field-effect transistor can be used. You should also check the diodes of the rectifier bridge and the electrolytic capacitor of the mains rectifier filter.
Mos-Fet switches used in switching power supplies (SMPS) rarely fail without reasons that must be looked for by checking other circuit elements. Breakdown is often caused by malfunctions of electrolytic capacitors or semiconductor elements in the primary circuit, or breakdown of resistors in stabilization circuits. The PWM controller microcircuit can also cause the breakdown of the power switch of the converter.
In cases where the SUPRA STV-LC2222WD TV has lost the image, but there is sound and all other functions are operational, there is a possibility of a malfunction of the inverter (converter for powering the backlight lamps). When you turn on the TV, the image may appear briefly and immediately disappear. It should be borne in mind that with such manifestations, the lamps themselves fail, the malfunction of which can be detected by replacing, connecting for diagnostics to the connectors that are known to be serviceable and suitable in power.
In most cases, the diagnostics and repair of the inverter is difficult due to the organization of protection, which turns it off in emergency cases in order to avoid fires when short circuits or breaks in high-voltage circuits and when lamps are depressurized. Repairers often block the protection circuits in order to make the necessary measurements at the control points of the inverter to identify the causes of the defect.

 The SUPRA STV-LC1522WD has no picture when a signal is present, often caused by a malfunction of the display backlight. Moreover, the problem can be both inside the LCD panel (matrix) 15 inches, for example, a malfunction of the CCFL (EEFL) lamps, and outside in their power source - the inverter.
Without backlighting, sometimes you can see a barely noticeable image with a certain successful hit of external light on the screen.

Often, to repair the backlight, disassembly of the LCD panel 15 is required - a painstaking process that requires increased attention and accuracy from the master. In such cases, there is a possibility, with the slightest negligence, to damage the glass or loops and the TV may become unrepairable.
We strongly do not recommend doing such work to owners of TVs and craftsmen who do not have experience in repairing LCD panels! Moreover, at home (at the owner's home).

If there is no image in the presence of backlight, the screen becomes slightly lighter when turned on, and if the TV is open, the light from the lamps can be seen through the holes in the panel case.
In this case, there may be a malfunction inside the panel, damage to strips, loops, the T-CON board (Timing Controller) may be defective. But often the MainBoard SP208ESA main board also turns out to be faulty, a software failure is also possible.

In such cases, the master first of all needs to check the main supply voltage of the panel at the LVDS connector, the fuses on the T-CON board or the panel brackets, as well as the supply and reference voltages for the line and column drivers - VGH, VGL, Vcom.


If all of the above measurements are within the normal range, then the oscilloscope needs to track the passage of LVDS signals from the MainBoard SP208ESA, as well as synchronization signals from T-CON to loops with drivers.

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). Repair of the board and replacement of microcircuits SPV7050, CT3257A, EN25T80, AT24C32, TDA9885TS, YD1517P are performed with the necessary equipment and the corresponding element base. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies can be localized by the warm-up method.
Once again, we remind TV users: do not try to repair yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and the necessary qualifications! Entrust repairs only to professionals with sufficient experience in the field of electronic repair ......
