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 advice about LCD LED TV repair
Possible problems

- THOMSON T43D15SF-01B TV set doesn't turn on at all. The indicator light does not turn on or blink. The TV does not respond to the remote control or control panel buttons.

First of all in these cases you should check the operability of the common switching power supply (PPS) - AC/DC mains voltage converter. All power supply elements in this TV model are located on the MainBoard TP.S512.PB83. If there are no necessary supply voltages in the secondary circuits of the converters, the power switches (N-FET TO-220F) and the rectifier diodes should be checked for possible partial or complete breakdown.
At breakdown of semiconductors in the secondary circuits of any converter, as a rule, it can operate in the emergency short-circuit mode without output voltages, and at short circuit in the elements of the primary circuit most often the line fuse and more rarely the current sensor in the source of the switch break down at once.
Mos-Fet power switches used in switched-mode power supplies sometimes fail due to the failure of some other element that can take it out of key mode, or cause the switch to exceed its maximum allowable parameters. These can be elements that feed the PWM controller, the frequency-retaining or damping circuits, or negative feedback elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers PWM SOT23-6, in the absence of visible damage or outright short circuits between the pins, are checked by replacing with new, or known to be in good condition.

- No picture, but there is sound and all other TV functions work. The picture sometimes appears for a second just after switching on and then disappears.

In these cases, it is most likely that the LED panel backlighting is defective. The cause can be found in the faulty LEDs, in a violation of the contact connections of the LED strips, or in their power supply (LED-driver).
It is impossible to check the LED strips for breakage without disassembling the panel with a multimeter or a tester. For this purpose, you need to open all the PN-junctions connected in series and will need a voltage of about tens of volts, and ideally - a current source. Having disassembled the panel, it is necessary to check each LED separately. Chinese multimeters tend to light up a single 3 volt LED slightly in the forward direction. In the case of twin 6 volt LEDs, the PN junction of its safety regulator may be a good indicator. In faulty LEDs, the regulator will either be broken or broken in the short circuit.

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


If the THOMSON T43D15SF-01B has no picture, but has sound, often the display backlight 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 a barely noticeable image when external lighting hits the screen.

To replace the LEDs requires disassembly of the LCD-panel - a process that requires a master of experience and expertise. Do not perform such work by yourself to owners of TV sets and masters who have no experience in LCD panel repair

If there is no image, but backlighting is working, the screen becomes a little 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 is defective as well, 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 the LVDS signals from MainBoard, as well as synchronizing signals to the driver stubs.

Filled or unsuccessfully washed LED TV screens can be restored in about half of the cases, usually, if there is no significant damage in the cables and panel bars.
- The TV does not turn on, the remote control does not respond. Indicator blinks or indicates standby mode.

Repair or diagnostic of the TP.S512.PB83 motherboard should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (firmware). When trying to repair MB board (SSB), you must check the functionality of its elements - CPU: S2T512-XBN, SPI Flash: W25Q64JVSIQ, Audio: TPA3110LD2 that may need new ones. If you have a BGA processor, there is a possibility of breaking the solder contacts between its pins and the board (can be diagnosed by heating).

The XF-3SDT-H tuner malfunction is detected after checking the software and all the supply voltages on its pins. The data exchange between the tuner and the CPU via I2C bus can be checked with an oscilloscope.

Attention to users! Unauthorized repair of THOMSON T43D15SF-01B TV without proper qualification and necessary experience can lead to its complete unrepairability!

 After repairing the TP.S512.PB83, SN510P backlight. Information from the master.

Decrease backlight current from 430 mA to 300 mA - removed 1.6 Ohm resistor in the driver current sensor on the TP.S512.PB83 board. The 4.7 Ohm and 2.4 Ohm remain unchanged.
Backlight driver current limitation. TP.S512.PB83, SN51DP. General advice.

To reduce the backlight current in the LED drivers with the SN51DP (SN510P) PWM controller, you can proportionally increase the resistance of the low impedance measuring resistors of the backlight current sensor in the LED circuit.
On the TP.S512.PB83 board, these are the RB837-RB841 resistors next to the EB801, EB802, EB803 capacitors.

The main features of the device THOMSON T43D15SF-01B:


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.
