I repaired TVs for 22 years, starting with sets that still had tubes, later transister and finally IC chips. The new technology works great and has excellent features, but is too small for this old guy. It's a young man's technology these days. Bravo to you working with such tiny components.
@FrugalRepair4 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Working with a microscope makes it very doable. In order to record this video I couldn’t use my microscope and instead had to watch through the tiny screen camera which is partly why I had trouble holding the transistor steady. I just upgraded to a trinocular one so hopefully videos like these will be easier to record.

The good old days. Technicians back then used to do things like design and build their own Pay TV Decoders. My version, cost about $5. It did not require a power supply of its own, since It pulled only 15 mA, and thus you could just install it inside a TV converter and then tap the power from the TV converters 12 VDC line instead. The decoder PCB was 4.50" x 1.20". To install, you just had to cut the baseband video wire, the wire that leads from the demodulator to the modulator, and hook these wires up to the decoder PCB's input and output. Anyhow, it decoded the baseband video signal line by line, rather than use the complex frame by frame PLL method. Later on I tried to sell the design to a cable company. But they said that my design was too good. Meaning that it was far to easy for it to be copied, due to it having so few components, components that were also readily available to just about anyone.

If you don't have the tools you can also use a cheap soldering iron of around $25. To remove the broken component, heat each solder joint separately and use a sharp knife to bend up the pin while the solder is heated, so it's not touching the solder anymore. To solder on the new component, put the new component in-between some tweezers and lower the side with the single pin just a little, so this side touches the solder joint first. Heat the solder while lowering the component in place. When the side with the single pin is soldered, the pins on the other side should slightly touch their solder-pads underneath, then complete soldering by alternating between both left over solder joints. If you notice you are bending the pin on the other side a little to much, just reheat this side quickly to release the stress on this pin.
@D4no004 жыл бұрын
or you can use a lot of solder, just make a big glob that will get cold slow and take the part out with tweezers. Clean the pads with a wick, place component, solder 1 leg while holding the part and then solder the other 2. Much easier and cleaner.

@Derp The answer to your question, Derp, is bad design. The transistor in the circuit is running "hot" (over 70% capacity) regularly and if the transistor quality is weak it will go again over time. But this knowledge has little barring on the propose of Frugal's presentation. He tested the part, it needed replacement, and he showed how to do it. If a person watching tests the part and it isn't shorted... they should find a different video to fix their problem :-) .

@Derp You sir, are correct. After doing this kind of work for around 40 years, knowing to check components on the secondary side (for the lack of a better term) of this transistor is a must. If another part is shorted, leaking, etc., it's pulling too much current through the transistor so it failed. Sometimes you get lucky. Lot's of times you don't. If that transistor popped, what does ''the internet'' say then?

Hi Fugal, thanks for the video. I suggest you adjust the air flow on your hot air gun as surrounding SMT components may be blown away, and you can notice that in the video when the diode above the transistor started sizzling, and if they don;t get blown away their soldering will dry out hence making it a dry joint. The trick is to use a good heat with less low air flow, that way the heat contact is precise on the bad component.

The TV is 600 W to run but it’s bright as the sun and crisp as a rainbow. I repaired it once by replacing the motherboard but accidentally gouged a little piece of solder.. stopping it from Booting up all together. I’m very confident that your technique will allow me to repair this incredible plasma. Just need to know more about the tools to get me there

You would need to either test the tcon board for other failures in addition to this transistor to make sure or you can replace the transistor and see if it worked.

Hope you please will teach me, so I better understand.
@FrugalRepair5 жыл бұрын
I hadn't thought about bending coper wire on a thicker soldering iron tip. That is a neat suggestion if you don't already have one with a fine tip. It still might be hard to solder in a small component in a tight spot with that setup. I'll have to try it sometime. I didn't feel the need to add kapton tape since the nozzle is small enough and the hot air can be directed to the one component. It depends on what work you are doing though. When working on an iphone board, for example, I may use kapton tape and place a metal coin nearby to help absorb some of the extra heat.
@friedmule54035 жыл бұрын
@@FrugalRepair Thank you for your great answer. About the copper wire, I find a thickness that I seems to fit the task and then start to bend it until it sits nice around the chip and let the tweezers and heat do the rest:-) Also wary nice and hard to reach places, like under a capacitor, in the corner near some plastic. You can always put an insulating tube around the 4 inch long copper, if necessary. :-) Your explanation about the heat gun, do make a lot of sense, I do just not have enough confidence and knowledge yet to dare that.

TV. #1, Backlight certainly works but losing color, contrast and brightness as the picture is starting to blacken out in top left corner and bottom right...almost is rectangle shapes in each corner. Picture is good after a rested restart and the problem quickly creeps back in. TV. #2, our oldest Vizio maybe 8 years, 50". First sign of a problem was the quick App start brand bottoms at the bottom of the modern FireStick would change the TV input to an unused port. Next problem it would blackout and flicker back on with clear white horizontal lines. Then it flickered until it don't come back. After long rests it worked again a couple times, V logo came up, with sound, and was back out within 10 minutes. Now it's out-out with no sound of the FireStick clicks changing the Apps, no V logo and all black screen...no backlight. With was a 2 month fading experience from beginning to end.

One of the big points of this video is to inspire people that things can be repaired inexpensively and I give an example of how it can be done on a tv that would otherwise be thrown away. If you happen to have the same t-con board and it failed, at least I've helped you with a starting point in your diagnosis and repair. And yes, there could be other damaged components but in this case, it was the only issue (like in many cases) and the tv was repaired.

Hugo... other way around. Maybe 1 in 10 of my 1990s computer engineering class could solder and almost none of use would solder surface mount parts on an existing board. I spent four years on design and assembly involving such hands on work and I never got good enough to solder surface mount components. I would have attached wires to the transistor and soldered the wires on -- rather than try surface mounting such a tiny component by hand. Anyone with the skill to solder surface mount parts by hand can trouble shoot a board -- they are either in repair or assembly work with the later trouble shooting their own work. Nor is it a terrible interesting video to look where the video power on/of line in coming in and then track its path and touch both ends with a multi-meter.
