General advice about LCD LED TV repair
Possible defects

- SAMSUNG UE49NU7120U TV does not turn on at all. No reaction to remote control and control buttons on the front panel. Indicator lights are not lit or blinking.

In such cases the power supply unit BN44-00932B is usually the defective one. Its output voltages should be measured and if they are not, the power switches (N-FET TO-220F) and the rectifier diodes should be checked for possible short circuits in the converters.
At breakdown of semiconductors in the secondary circuits of any converter, as a rule, it can work in the emergency short-circuit mode without output voltages, and at short circuit in the elements of the primary circuit most often the mains fuse and more rarely the current sensor at the source of the switch break down at once.
Mos-Fet switches used in switched-mode power supplies usually fail due to the failure of other elements, which can take it out of key mode, or cause it to exceed the maximum current or voltage. These may be the circuits feeding the PWM controller, the damping or frequency-retaining circuits, or the negative feedback elements in the stabilization circuit. PWM controllers (PFC) PFC, PWM, if there is no external damage and short circuit between the pins, are checked by replacing with known good ones.

- No picture, but there is sound and all other functions work. Sometimes at switching on the image appears for a second and then disappears.

Often in such cases there is no backlight of the LED panel. The cause can be found in the failure of the LEDs, in violation of the contact connections of the LED strips AOT_49_NU7300_2X38 JLE490K2300-408BS-R7P-M-HF, or in their power supply (LED-driver).
When trying to identify breaks in the lines of LEDs, keep in mind that it is difficult to do without disassembling the panel. For example, a current source is needed to open the PN-junctions connected in series.

If the SAMSUNG UE49NU7120U has no picture but sound, often the CY-NN049HGLV2V 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 faintly visible image when external light hits the screen.

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


To replace the LEDs requires disassembly of the LCD panel CY-NN049HGLV2V - a process which requires a master of experience and skill. We do not recommend to perform such works by yourself to owners of TV sets and craftsmen 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 BN41-02635B is defective and so is the software.


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, you need to trace with an oscilloscope the LVDS signals from MainBoard BN41-02635B, 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 LED on the front panel is blinking, the TV set does not turn on, and the remote control is unresponsive.

Repair or diagnosis of the motherboard BN41-02635B should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (firmware). Board repair and chip replacement CPU, eMMC: KLM4G1FEPD, SPI 25Q40, EEPROM: 24C512, DRAM, AUDIO: TAS5749M are made with the necessary equipment and the appropriate element base. Malfunctions associated with the use of BGA processor soldering techniques can be localized by the heating method.

Before replacing the BN40-00331A tuner, if you cannot tune to the TV channels, make sure that the supply voltages are available and measure them on the respective pins of the tuner and check the software for correctness. The tuner-to-processor communication pulses can be checked with an oscilloscope

Once again, users must be reminded! The attempts to repair the SAMSUNG UE49NU7120U TV without the appropriate qualification and necessary experience can lead to its complete unrepairability!

 

Driver current limitation. BN44-00932B, SLM4283A. General information.



To decrease the backlight current you can proportionally increase the total resistance of the resistors R9101, R9201 (current sensor) at the source of the converter working switch on the BN44-00932B board or you can remove one of the resistors. Note that there are two more SMD resistors in parallel on the back side of the board.

General recommendations for LCD LED TV repair
Possible defects

- SAMSUNG UE50J5500AU TV does not turn on at all. Control lights do not light or blink. TV on the remote control and the control panel buttons do not respond.

With this kind of manifestation the fault is most likely in the power supply module BN44-00704E. Then you should measure its output voltages and in case of their full or partial absence you need to check the serviceability of the power switches (TO-220, TO252) and the inverter rectifier diodes for possible short circuit.
If there is a breakdown in the secondary circuits of the inverter, it can usually fail in the short-circuit mode, and if there is a short circuit in the power elements of the primary circuit, the mains fuse or the current sensor in the source of the key most often breaks down.
Mos-Fet power switches used in switching 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 the elements that feed the PWM controller, the frequency or damping circuits, or the negative feedback elements in the stabilization circuit. PFC, PWM FA6A01 PWM controllers, if there is no visible damage or obvious short circuit between the pins are checked by replacing with the new ones or known good ones.

- No picture, sound is present, the remote control responds, the channels are switched. In some cases the picture appears when you switch on and immediately disappears.

Usually in such cases the fault is detected in the nodes of LED panel backlighting. Often the cause of failure is the lack of current in the circuit of LEDs, such as their breakage or short circuit, or violation of contact connections of connectors 2014SVS50_3228 slats.
It should be remembered that it is not possible to determine the breakage in the LED lines without disassembling the panel, using a tester or multimeter 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 shorted.

If the SAMSUNG UE50J5500AU has no picture but has sound, often the CY-GJ050BGNV1V 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 faintly visible image when external light hits the screen.

To replace the LEDs requires disassembly of the LCD panel CY-GJ050BGNV1V - a process which requires a master of experience and expertise. We do not recommend to perform such works by yourself to owners of TV sets and craftsmen who have no experience in LCD panel repair.

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


If there is no image, but backlighting works - the screen becomes slightly lighter when the TV is switched 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 BN41-02353B is defective and so is the software.
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 BN41-02353B, 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 is no significant damage in the cables and panel bars.

- The TV set does not turn on, the remote control does not respond. LED blinks or indicates standby mode.

Repair or diagnostic of the motherboard BN41-02353B should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the microchips and matrix. If necessary, the software (software) should be updated or replaced. Often the MB board (SSB) needs to be replaced if it has complex faults, which are difficult to detect. If you're trying to repair it, check its elements - CPU: SDP1415, EMMC: THGBMBG5D1KBAIT, RAM: K4B4G16460-BCMA 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.


Before replacing the tuner BN40-00318B, if there is no tuning to the channels, you must first check the software and the power supply voltages on its pins. Also make sure that the tuner and the processor can exchange data via the I2C bus

Remember! Attempts to repair TV SAMSUNG UE50J5500AU by yourself, in the absence of the necessary skills and experience, strongly not recommended and are fraught with negative consequences, up to the complete unrepairable device!

General advice about LCD LED TV repair
Possible problems

- SAMSUNG UE55J5500AU TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote and control panel buttons, does not shine or blink indicators.

In this case the main switching power supply (PMS) BN44-00704E is most likely defective. Make sure there are no output voltages and if not check the power switches (MMF60R360P, MMD50R380) and rectifier diodes for possible short circuits.
At breakdown of semiconductors in the secondary circuits of any converter, as a rule, it can work in the short-circuit emergency mode without output voltages, and at short circuit in the primary circuit elements the mains fuse and more rarely the current sensor at the source of the key most often break down at once.
Breakdown of Mos-Fet switches, used in pulse sources, is often caused by failure of other elements, for example, in PWM regulator supply circuit, in frequency-retaining or damping circuits, as well as in the Negative Feedback Stabilization. PWM chips FA5695N, PWM FA6A20N are usually checked by replacement with new or known good ones.

- No picture, but there is sound and reaction to the remote control. Or the image may appear for a second right after turning on.

In these cases the defect in the backlighting of the LED panel is the most probable. Often the cause of the malfunction is the lack of current in the circuit of the LEDs, for example, their breakage or short circuit, or violation of the contact connections of the connectors 2014SVS55_3228_R05_REV1.1_140111, 2014SVS55_3228_L07_REV1.1_140111.
To test LED strips to open all LED junctions, several tens of volts or more are needed, it is best to use a current source for such purposes. Breakage of several PN-junctions connected in series cannot be detected with a multimeter or a tester. In such cases, you need to open the panel and check each LED. If your multimeter can't open the transitions of the LEDs in forward bias, you can sometimes detect the PN junction of a protective stabilizer by connecting the probes in the opposite direction. If the regulator is open or broken in K/Z, then the LED is faulty and needs to be replaced.


If the SAMSUNG UE55J5500AU has no picture but there is sound, often the display backlight of the T550HVF07.0 simply does not work. Moreover, in LED TVs usually fail the LEDs inside the panel, less often the LED-driver.
In such cases you can see a faintly visible image when external light hits the screen.

To replace the LEDs requires disassembly of the LCD panel T550HVF07.0 - the process requiring the master of experience and skill. We do not recommend to make such repairs by yourself to owners of TV sets and craftsmen without any experience in LCD panel repair

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.
- TV does not go into operating mode, remote control does not respond. Front panel LED is either on all the time or is blinking.

Repair or diagnostic of the motherboard BN41-02353B should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters necessary to power the microchips and matrix. If necessary, software (software) should be updated or replaced. Complex repair of MB (SSB) is possible only in the conditions of the service center with the necessary equipment. Check or replacement of elements CPU: SDP1415, EMMC: THGBMBG5D1KBAIT, RAM: K4B4G16460-BCMA requires the necessary training and professional skills to repair modules at the component level. Problems associated with the use of BGA soldering technology can sometimes be diagnosed by the heating method.

If you cannot tune to the on-air or cable TV channels make sure that the software is correct, and also that the supply voltages on the tuner BN40-00318B outputs correspond to the nominal ones. Also it is necessary to supervise with the help of an oscilloscope the presence of the tuner data exchange pulses with a processor via the I2C bus.

Warning. Users and owners of TV sets UE55J5500AU, not having the appropriate qualifications, knowledge and experience, strongly advise against trying to repair yourself to avoid the negative consequences that can lead to total unrepairable device.

General advice about LCD LED TV repair
Possible problems

- SONY KDL-43WF804 TV does not turn on, does not respond to the remote control and control panel buttons, does not shine or blink indicators.

With such manifestations, in some cases the Adapter power module is defective.
External power supply of Adapter 19.5V 4.36A 85W type the owner of the TV usually buys himself, it often happens that its repair is not expedient, but the simplest defects typical of the power supply can be seen and easily eliminated after opening it. It is necessary to measure its output voltages, and in case of their absence (complete or partial), you should check the serviceability of power converter keys and rectifier diodes for possible short circuits.
If the semiconductors in the secondary circuits breakdown, the inverter can usually fail in the short-circuit mode, and the mains fuse is often blown when there is a short circuit in the primary circuit power elements.
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 are usually checked by replacing them with new ones or with ones known to be in good working order.

- No picture, sound is there, remote responds. Or the image can appear for a second and then disappear at once.

In these cases the LED panel backlight failure is the most probable. Usually the cause of the trouble is the breakage of the LEDs or in the connectors of the LED strips 74.43T08.004-00-FC1 LB43044 V1_00_R, LB43044 V1_00_L, but sometimes the LEDdriver is also at fault.
It is impossible to detect a breakage in the line of LEDs without disassembling the panel with a simple multimeter. The LEDs are connected in series and to open their junctions you will need several tens of volts. Ideally a current source would be suitable for this purpose. You can open up the panel and check each LED separately. Usually, Chinese multimeters will light up one 3 volt LED slightly if you connect the probes to it in the forward direction (red probe to the anode, black probe to the cathode). For twin 6-volt LEDs, the PN junction of its faulty stabilizer can be used as an indicator of the health of the LED. If the LED is faulty, it will either be open or shorted.

- The TV set will not turn on, the LED will indicate standby or operation mode, or it will blink.

Repair or diagnosis of the motherboard 1-982-626-21 should begin with checking the stabilizers and power converters needed to power the chips and matrix. If necessary, update or replace the software (firmware). Repair and replacement of CPU: MT5832 DGI J, eMMC H26M52208FRP, DRAM, AUDIO, DC/DC chips are made with the necessary equipment and the appropriate component base. Malfunctions associated with the use of soldering technology BGA processor can be localized by the method of heating.

If there is no TV channel reception, but the TV set is working properly from external devices, you must first check the CE251ZP.JPG tuner supply voltage and update the software. It is necessary to check the I2C communication pulses with an oscilloscope.

We would like to remind the TV users once again: Do not try to repair yourself without the appropriate knowledge, experience and necessary qualification!
