General recommendations for TV LCD LED repair
Possible malfunctions

- TCL L32S6300 TV does not turn on. There are no signs of operability. The indicators on the front panel do not light or blink, the TV does not respond to control buttons.

In such cases, the AC / DC converter of the mains voltage, which is combined with the main board TPD.NT72563.PB771, is often faulty. It is then necessary to measure its output voltages and, if they are absent, the power switches (TO-220) and rectifier diodes of the converters should be checked for the probability of a short circuit.
In case of breakdowns in the secondary circuits, the converter, as a rule, can 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 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), if they do not have 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.

The backlight of the matrix (LED panel) is usually faulty in these cases. Most often the reason for this is a break in the LEDs, or poor contact in the connectors of the brackets, less often the LED driver may be faulty.
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.

If TCL L32S6300 has no image, but there is sound, often the LVW320ND1L display backlight 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 LVW320ND1L LCD panel - a process that requires experience and qualifications from the master. We do not recommend doing such work on your own to 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, light is visible 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 often the main board MainBoard TPD.NT72563.PB771 also turns out to be faulty, a software failure is also possible.
Then, first of all, you need to check the panel 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 the normal range, it is necessary to trace the passage of LVDS signals from MainBoard TPD.NT72563.PB771 with an oscilloscope, as well as synchronizing signals to 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 loops and panel strips.

- The TV does not go into operation, does not respond to the remote control. The indicator on the front panel is on or blinking.

Repair or diagnostics of the TPD.NT72563.PB771 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). In cases of complex MB (SSB) repairs and with the necessary skills and equipment, it may sometimes be necessary to replace its EMMC THGBMDG5D1LBAIL chips and other possible faulty components. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA soldering technologies are usually easily diagnosed by the warm-up method.

Attention to TV owners! Attempts to repair the TCL L32S6300 yourself are not recommended by the manufacturer and can lead to serious negative consequences!


 

READ HOW TO REPAIR THE TV LED BACKLIGHT --------------> HERE.

 
Revision after repair of the backlight. Information from the master.

Reduce the backlight current from 92 mA to 66 mA - replaced one of the resistors (16 kOhm by 22 kOhm) at pin 6 ISET of the GB98TERN chip on the TPD.NT72563.PB771 board.
Additional MainBoard Repair

The appearance of the MainBoard TPD.NT72563.PB771 is shown in the figure below:



TPD.NT72563.PB771

Key features of the TCL L32S6300 device:

Installed matrix (LED panel) LVW320ND1L.
To power the backlight LEDs, a converter combined with the main board TPD.NT72563.PB771 is used, controlled by the GB98TERN PWM controller. TO-252 switches 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 SOT23-6 PWM microcircuits and TO-220 power switches. 


PWM SMPS in SOT-23-6, SOT-26, TSOP-6 packages

In the circuitry of modern switching power supplies (SMPS), PWM controllers made in small-sized planar packages with six terminals have gained wide popularity. The enclosure type designation can be SOT-23-6, SOT-23-6L, SOT-26, TSOP-6, SSOT-6. The appearance and arrangement of the pins are shown in the figure below. In this case, the code marking LD7530A is shown on the left fragment of the picture.


 

 Pin assignment:
1 - GND. (Common wire).
2 - FB. (FeedBack - Feedback). Input for controlling the duration of pulses with a signal from the output voltage. Sometimes it can be labeled COMP (input comparator).
3 - RI / RT / CT / COMP / NC - Depending on the type of microcircuit, it can be used for a frequency-setting RC circuit (RI / RT / CT), or for organizing protection, as an input of a PWM trip comparator at a threshold value at its input, specified in the document. In some types of microcircuits, this input may not be used in any way (NC - No Connect).
4 - SENSE, otherwise CS (Current Sense) - Input from the current sensor at the source of the key.
5 - VCC - Input voltage supply and start of the microcircuit.
6 - OUT (GATE) - Output for controlling the gate (Gate) of the key.

Functionally, these regulators work on the principle of the previously popular xx384x PWM microcircuits, which have proven themselves well in terms of reliability and stability.

Some difficulties often arise when replacing or choosing an analog for such PWM regulators due to the use of code markings in the designation of the type of microcircuits. The situation is complicated by a large number of component manufacturers who do not always provide documentation to the mass access, just as not all manufacturers of finished devices supply repair service centers with diagrams, so repairmen often have to study real circuit solutions by installed components and wiring connections directly on the board.

In practice, PWM microcircuits and the marking code EAxxx and Eaxxx are often found. Official documentation for them was not found in the public domain, but discussions on the forums and pieces of pictures from PDF from System General, which publishes them as SG6848T and SG6848T2, have survived. The drawing is here placed left .


 

For the attention of the masters, here below are PDF datasheet tables compiled from information available on the Internet and PDF documents for the selection of analogues types when replacing the most common six-legged planar PWM with pinout pins: pin1 - GND, pin2 - FB (COMP), pin4 - Sense, pin5 - Vcc, pin6 - OUT ...
Their main difference is the application and purpose of pin 3.

 PWM controllers that use pin 3 differently.

When using the following PWM (PWM controllers), you should pay attention to pin 3, which can be used to organize protection - thermal or from overvoltage of the input voltage.
The frequency can be fixed at 65kHz, or set by the value of the capacitor at pin 3.
When replacing any microcircuits with analogs, carefully study the documentation. PDF files are packed in a RAR archive.
