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 manifestations of defects

- SONY KD-55XD9305 does not turn on, does not respond to buttons and the remote control, indicators on the front panel do not light or flash.

In some of these cases, the problem is found in the adapter power supply module.
The power source in this model is an external Adapter 24V 9.4A 200W, usually the owners of TVs can purchase them on their own, and their repair may be impractical. But sometimes it is not difficult to open the unit and eliminate simple typical defects characteristic of most SMPS. Its output voltages should be measured and, in their absence, the power switches and rectifier diodes should be checked for the probability of a short circuit in the converters.
In case of breakdowns of semiconductors in the secondary circuits, the converter can usually work in an emergency in the 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 that can disable it in the 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 image, there is sound, it reacts to the remote control. Or, immediately after switching on for a second, the image may appear and immediately disappear.

Usually, in such cases, there is no backlighting of the LED panel (matrix). Usually the cause of the malfunction is in the breakage of the LEDs, or in the connectors of the LED strips, but sometimes the LED driver is also faulty.
It should be remembered that it is not possible to determine an open circuit in the LED lines without disassembling the panels using a tester or multimeter without an additional device, for example, a current source. To open all PN junctions connected in series at once, a voltage of several tens of volts may be required. Then you need to open the panel and check each LED separately with a multimeter. If the capabilities of your multimeter do not allow you to open the LED in the forward direction or dual LEds are used, then the PN-transition of the emergency zener diode can indirectly serve as an indicator of serviceability. In the event of a malfunction of the LED-a, the PN-junction of the Zener diode will either be cut off or broken through in the SC.

In cases where the SONY KD-55XD9305 does not have a picture, but there is sound, the display backlight often does not work.
In LED TVs, the LEDs inside the YD6S550STD01 panel are usually faulty, and less often the LED driver.
Without backlighting, sometimes you can see a barely noticeable image with a certain successful hit of external light on the screen.

Replacing the LEDs requires disassembling the YD6S550STD01 panel. We do not recommend such works on their own to TV owners and craftsmen who do not have experience in repairing LCD panels, especially at home.

If there is no image, and the backlight is on, the screen becomes slightly lighter when turned on, and on an open TV, the light is visible through the holes in the panel case.
In this case, the T-CON (Timing Controller) board may be faulty, but often the MainBoard 1-980-833-11 is also faulty. A software failure is also possible. The panel can also be faulty - damage to strips, loops, for example, after moisture. In such cases, first of all, it is necessary to check the panel supply voltage at the LVDS connector, fuses on the T-CON board or panel brackets, as well as supply and reference voltages for column and line drivers - VGH, VGL, Vcom.
If they are within the normal range, then the oscilloscope must track the passage of LVDS signals from MainBoard 1-980-833-11, as well as synchronizing signals to loops with drivers.

Flooded screens of LED TVs can sometimes be repaired if no significant damage has formed in the loops and on the panel trims.

- The TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator blinks or signals the standby mode.

Repair or diagnostics of the 1-980-833-11 motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the microcircuits and matrix. If necessary, you should update or replace the software (software). If it is not possible to replace the MB (SSB) board, it is necessary to check the health of its elements - CPU, DRAM, eMMC, DC / DC. Defective components must be replaced.

Before replacing the tuner CE541ZP, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first check the software and the supply voltage at its outputs. You also need to make sure that the tuner and processor can exchange data via the I2C bus

Attention to TV owners! Attempts to repair SONY KD-55XD9305 by yourself are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!
