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 LCD LED TV repair
Possible defects

- LG 55LB652V TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and control panel buttons, indicators are not lit or blinking.

With such manifestations, in some cases the power module EAX65423801 is defective. It is necessary to measure its output voltages and in case of their absence check the serviceability of the power switches (K7A60W) and the rectifier diodes in the converters for possible breakdown.
If there is a breakdown in the secondary circuits, the inverter can usually be short-circuited, and if there is a short in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse usually blows.
Breakdown of the Mos-Fet switches used in switching sources is often caused by faults in other elements, such as in the PWM controller supply circuit, in the frequency-retaining or damping circuits, and in the Negative Feedback Stabilization circuit. PWM microcircuits MAP8800 (PFC), FA6A01N are usually checked by replacing with the new ones or with known good ones.

- No picture, sound is there, all other functions of the TV work. When turning on, the picture may sometimes appear for a second.

In such cases, the most likely cause is a malfunction in the LED panel backlighting elements. More often the cause is a breakage of LEDs, or poor contact in the connectors of strips, less often the LED-driver may be faulty.
It should be remembered that to determine the breakage in the LED lines without disassembling the panel, with a tester or multimeter is not possible without an additional device, such as a current source. To open all the PN-junctions connected in series at once a voltage of several tens of volts may be required. Then you have to open the panel and check each LED separately with a multimeter. If the capabilities of your multimeter do not allow to open the LED in the forward direction or twin LEd's are used, then the PN junction of the faulty stabilizer can indirectly serve as an indication of serviceability. If the LED is faulty, the PN junction of the stabilizer will either be open or short-circuited.

If the LG 55LB652V has no picture but has sound, often the display backlight of the LC550DUH (FG)(P2) simply does not work. Moreover, in LED-TVs usually fail LEDs inside the panel, less often the LED-driver.
In such cases you can see faintly visible image when external light hits the screen.

To replace the LEDs requires disassembly LCD-panel LC550DUH - the process requiring a master of experience and expertise. We do not recommend to perform such works by yourself to owners of TV sets and masters who have no experience in LCD-panel repair

If there is no image, but backlighting works - the screen becomes slightly lighter when the TV is turned on, and in the open TV you can see the light through the holes in the body of the panel.
In this case the panel may be defective - damage to the strips, cables, for example, as a consequence of moisture after an unsuccessful washing of the screen, the T-CON board (Timing Controller) may be defective. But quite often the MainBoard EAX65384004 is defective, and software failure is also possible.
Then first it is necessary to check the panel power supply voltage, 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 by oscilloscope LVDS signals from MainBoard EAX65384004, as well as synchronizing signals to driver stubs.

Filled or unsuccessfully washed LED TV screens can be restored in about half of the cases, usually, if there was not significant damage in the cables and panel bars.

- The TV set does not enter the operation mode, the remote control is not responding. Front panel LED is either on continuously or is blinking.

Repair or diagnosis of motherboard EAX65384004 should begin with a check of the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, software (software) should be updated or replaced. Often the MB board (SSB) has to be replaced if it has complex faults that are hard to detect. If you're trying to repair it, check its elements - CPU: LG1311; DRAM: H5TQ4G63AFR-PBC; EEPROM: AT24C256C, EMMC: THGBMAG6A2JBAIR and replace faulty chips with new ones. Some failures may be associated with the use of modern Main Board BGA soldering technology. Usually such defects are detected by local heating of the chip.

If the TV set is working properly from external devices, but does not tune to the TV channels, the TDJM-G101D tuner may be defective. In these cases you should first make sure that there is a supply voltage on its respective pins. You should also make sure that the tuner and the processor can communicate via the I2C bus. Sometimes the reason of the tuner malfunction may be a software error.

Warning to Users! Independent repair of LG 55LB652V TV set without the corresponding qualification and necessary experience can lead to its total unrepairability!

Repair after repair of backlight. EAX65423801 LGP55-14PL2, BL0202B. Information from the master.

Reduce backlight current from 147 mA to 125 mA - removed resistors R818 and R836 in the current sensors on the EAX65423801 board.
Driver current limitation. EAX65423801. 

General information.

You can reduce the backlight current in LG TVs with the EAX65423801 (LGP474950-14PL2) power supplies as follows. The current sensors in the LEDs R811-R818 are channel 1 and R829-R836 are channel 2. The resistors are in pairs, four pairs per channel. To reduce the backlight current by 25% you need to turn off one pair of resistors in each channel.
