[@markcastleton9956]

Is there a way to check the amplifier chip to know if its bad ?

[@markcastleton9956]

Great video

[@winstonchurchill8300]

120 volts?! That is 100 volts too low. Normal is 220 volts. No wonder the TV is not working properly.

Your videos have been super helpful, especially this one. I recently took a job as a repair tech for a local college fixing a wide array of things, one of which are tvs. I have no experience with diagnosing tvs. This has been a big help. Thanks.

[@IE.Production_s]

Thanks you @tampatech, this video really helped me fix my 65in RCA led TV. I thought I was the PCB since I kept getting weird reading when checking the stand by voltage but I turned out to be my multimeter. The main issue was the Main board, which this video really helped me diagnosing the issue.

[@alaster33]

Thank you tempatec , I have never fixed a TVs but I am inspired and empowered to the possibilities thanks to your freely given directions and advice , I love how clearly you explain and demonstrate ( spell it out ) for us newness, I recon I will have to listen many times for it to sink in but your fully explained videos leave no stones unturned ( hopefully lol)

[@CurtisFaulkner]

Tampatec, Thanks for this video. I've done a little troubleshooting already on a dead LG, and I'm going to use this video to guide some more troubleshooting (although my TV is an LED, so there are fewer boards to deal with). Here's what I've done so far- The TV is an LG 32LB560B-UZ.BUSMLJM. The TV does not appear to power-on: no video, no power indicator or standby light -Verified power cord was connected to a good outlet and passing proper voltage -Looked at both boards, no puffy capacitors, no obvious burns -Ceramic fuses have continuity -Measured voltages on output of power board using chassis as ground (all readings taken without attempting to turn the TV on): Labelled 12v/12v - Actual Reading 11.7v Labelled 3.5v/3.5v - Actual Reading 3.4v Labelled 24v/24v - Actual Reading 25v Labelled PWR-ON/DRV-ON - did not take reading Initially, before taking power readings, I thought that surely this would be a power board issue, but those power readings look really close to me, although I don’t know the board tolerances. However, it seems strange to me that the 12v and 24v are constantly on, since I measured them without trying to turn the TV on. I would have thought that only the 3.5v would be constant. One thing your video has got me thinking about is stability. I'm going to go back and check the stability of those voltages.

[@TampaTec]

+Curtis Faulkner can be main board or power board but i would go for main board get at shopjimmy.com cause they take returns (restock fee maybe charged)

[@CurtisFaulkner]

Thanks. I appreciate the suggestion and will likely go ahead and get the main board right after Thanksgiving.

Great info love the way you explain everything love from Ireland

[@ronowens1946]

Hi Tampatec, I think your tv help videos are a fantastic help especially to people that have knowledge of electronics but are not tv engineers, I have fixed many TV's with help from you and others on you tube, but I think one of the main problems is cracked screens, there don't seem to be anywhere in the uk supplies new screens and they are a hell of a price even second user, so many good TV's are scrapped because of this,, it hurts to pull apart a really nice tv and scrap it,, ron south wales uk

[@TampaTec]

if laptop and monitor screens under 32 inch which I did a video, but bigger screens is too costly for manufacturers maybe cause high risk of damage when shipping, that's my guess.

[@saywhat9158]

Since the screen is the most expensive part, those cracked screen TVs should be used explicitly for donor electronic parts so that easy and inexpensive repairs can be done on intact TVs. If selling the electronic boards to places like Electroparts for some salvage value or extra cash was made more popular, then their would be a lot less shortage of parts to fix good screens.

[@curtisjones9157]

Great videos. Got a tv that was my Dad's who passed away it quit. Bought new one two years ago when wife got cancer. She passed away a year ago. I dont normally try to mess with these TVs but these have the memory behind them. I'm tech savvy but needed these voltages and basic functions to see if I can Isolate . The newest TV is a Phillip's not even two years old no light. But I had some voltages, wasn't sure of what volts where. Thanks.

[@JinSataima]

I have been a lot of time to learn .... How a simply to check the voltage stage by stage thank you sir❤

[@abbeyzondo]

Your videos are very informative. Thanks.

[@josephantony5589]

Thank you Sir for the basic points of trouble shooting in general.

[@stevenzanella9390]

Really enjoyed this video and realize it's older but I'm struggling with a LCD backlight issue and can't find any decent info. Your video was by far more informative than anything currently on line. Would love to get some advice if your still responding to comments. Have a Vizio VX 37l with standby voltage, backlight flashes then out. Tested all voltages on power board as good, bought new inverter board on eBay, same problem. Don't know where to go from here!

[@davidpeiffer2096]

I like your videos. I've done some electronic repair in the USAF many years ago so diagnostics and repair is not foreign to me. What I would like to know is where can I find the normal voltage that I should see on the test points on my specific Samsung LCD TV?

[@TampaTec]

On power board should read 3.3v standby even if tv isn't on. Try here, www.smarttvmanuals.net/samsung/samsung-tv-repair-manual-schematics/

[@tonyalale3808]

Thanks for this deep troubleshooting, I have 75' Vizio flat screen with three busted capacitor in the power board, I replaced the 3 capacitor but the TV will still not come on though the capacitors rating was 68uf 450 but I was able to get 47uf 450 to replace them but still not working no single light anywhere

[@westfield90]

You are just so knowledgeable. Very impressed

[@jamalabdul5529]

Thanks for the video and it’s been helpful

[@torrensc]

Love your videos. Have tried all in above excellent video. Fuse good, bridge rectifier good. Power board output Connector only has one place where there's voltage and it's 4.91V steady (standby light on, no display), no other voltages present whether tv on or off...replace power board? Thanks mucho!

THANK YOU TAMPATEC !!!! I hope you make good money and live a blessed life because you are very smart and devote a lot of time sharing on KZbin I've learned a lot from you! I have a Panasonic 2013 LCD/TV model TC-L58E60 POWER SUPPLY TNP A5807 2 that was given to me it won't turn on and I'm a beginner with TV's and don't have a lot of money to put into it and I would rather repair whatever board is the problem if you get a free moment I would just like your advice on where to start with this model and if there is another brand closer to Panasonic that you already have a video I should watch? THANKS AGAIN !!!

[@hermangilliam6682]

Hi,tampatecYour videos are very helpful, Thanks

[@THOMMGB]

Hi Tampatec, I know this is an older video of yours, but the information on checking voltages is timeless. I was just given a Coby 39" LCD TV that is totally dead. It's from around 2013. I'm going to check the voltages, but I suspect that it's the power supply. Something you mentioned in this video at the 3:31 mark is if the bridge rectifier is shorted, then it will take out the ...... something. Did you say, "fuse"? I'm still learning, so knowing exactly what gets taken out would be helpful. By the way, the fuse on my power supply is good. Thanks a lot, Tom

[@tommyp8920]

There is so much useful info in here it's crazy.

[@bobkreig7510]

i wish to inform readers about my experience in trying to repair a LCD Samsung 52" TV Some time ago my daughter gave me her TV set because it was completely dead . She wanted to throw it away and I strongly refused to do it. I promised to look at it and put again in operation. In spite of my age (88 years old) I started a research and I found this site. I have some experience in electronics because i am a licensed Radioamateur but without a particular experience in modern LCD TV. Of course the first thing i did was to look at the main power board.I changed all filter electrolytic capacitors apparently good but with a too low working voltage I substituted with 25 working voltage capacitors with a total expense of less then 10 $. The set was always dead except the stand by red light and the clicking of main switching relay. Audio was working but screen totally black. Then I started a very patient control of the various voltages present in all boards (main power board, logic board ,T Con board). I strictly followed the various suggestions of Tampatec how to proceed with my multimeter. All LCD were not lighted and i began to search some replacement board to recover this TV. The voltages were ok but no high voltage to drive the inverter board . Few days ago I was looking once more at the back side of the TV and I was bit desperate to find reason of the missing high voltage of the inverter. I was convinced that all was in order but no way. Black screen persisted. Then suddenly I had a very simple idea. A very banal reasoning. The voltages are ok but may be in some connector the electric contact were bad mainly for oxidation or for other mechanical reason. Then i started to disconnect all connectors of each board and with the special liquid for increasing conductivity i sprayed either the male and female connectors putting then again in proper position (feeling with fingers the small click when properly inserted. ) Et Voila Everything started all worked fine . Great satisfaction! I kept the TV on for many hours and days switching on and off just to be sure of my work. Hope that this experience could help others readers

Hi Tampatec you have answered a lot of my testing on board capacitors etc and the use of the mesr meter .Can you give us a type of meter to test thermocouples on air conditioning units and or one of your videos on testing newer inverter controlled boards on air conditioning units.This would be greatly appreciated

[@williammccourt2979]

Great Video's I have a Toshiba 32" 32AV502U witch i have had for yrs. The trouble that i have now is i turn tv on the green light comes on it try's to come on and i start to see pic then it doesn't come on but the green light stay's on till i turn it off. If i cycle it several times maybe 6 times when the picture starts then it's fine and stay's on. I get the impression that when it starts it not getting enough Voltage to stay on like a clinoid in a car. I haven't yet taken apart yet but i will in the future. do you any video on a 32AV502U with the same problem? thanks Bill

[@THOMMGB]

Thanks for this very informative video. I've got to wonder if you've ever done a video on replacing a bad IR sensor on aTV? I'm not looking at replacing the sensor board, but the actual IR sensor. I'd like to learn what's involved with that repair. Thanks a lot, Tom

[@BongoSanta]

Hey Tampatec - great video! I have an LG 55LB5550-UY that has a black flashing screen. It passes the flashlight test so I know it has a picture. So far I have replaced the power supply board, T-Con board and Main board. I have also also replaced the LED backlight strips. It is still doing the same thing - flashing about once every second. At this point, I'm thinking that maybe the new power supply board I put in has a problem - what do you think? I'm running out of ideas.

[@fatfish3238]

Hi Tampatec , thanks for what you are doing for people.. I wanted to ask you if you would be able to help with my issue. I have Bauhn ATV-55 FHDED its led tv not older then 3 years. Iam I have a problems turn my TV on. It's always turn on I can see a logo and turns off and on again cycles. Sometimes starts to run. I check powerboard and replaced 4 caps which looked not normal. But no change. Still same problem . What I have noticed is that on SPON pin I have 4.4 V and Iam not sure if it's enough. Thank you for any idea

[@Dragao515]

Great video TampaTec thank u for this. I will be free to ask u for help. My Quadro tv make me problems. It have power and sound but no picture. When I use lamp I see something. I was open him and on power supply I found one bed capacitor after change it work perfectly but just two days. First day after turning off and stand on stand by for a few hours I need to start him two times and it work. But after second standing on stand by it's no way to turn on. Probably same capacitor again. Please can u tell me why capacitor dieing when is tv on stand by. Best regards from Montenegro.

Hi TampaTec. Thanks for putting up all these tv repair videos. Been trying to learn from them hoping I can fix this Sceptre tv that I have. I have a question. My TV is intermittently turning on. Actually there are weird things going on with it. The standy light comes on if I let the TV rest for a few hours. As soon as the standby light is ON the TV can be turned ON. The red light turns blue and there's picture on the screen with no problem. But after like a minute or so the TV just shuts down completely. No power and no standby light. You can't turn it back ON. What I do is I unplug it and wait for like an hour or so, plug it back in then the whole thing happens again. There's even times that the standby light doesn't come back at all till the next day. I am hoping you can share some of your expertise on this.

Great explanations and demonstrations; trying to work on an LG374450 when it turns on gets image and sound - the indicator light goes from Red to Blue than after about15secs. lose everything and the Blue light turns to a blinking red. Testing the power board voltages pins going to audio - when it is on initially have (2) 20volt pins and (2) 3.5v pins and (3) 12v pins when the indicator light goes from blue to red blinking lose the 20volts and 12volts from those pins, been checking diodes but so far haven't found anything --- any suggestions

Hello Tampatec. I was wondering if you can give me some suggestions on what I can do next for a TV I am trying to fix. It is an RCA 22" LCD Full HDTV. The problem is crackling sound. There is one board that handles both the audio and video (video has no problems). So far, my thought has been to replace the board. But so far, I have not been able to find a replacement (tried the links to parts from your vids and they don't carry the board-and tried other places and was told it is not made anymore. I haven't even been able to find a circuit schematic for it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi. I installed new LED strips in my LG54M0060V12. The older strips needed replacing and when disassembling many of the lenses fell right off. I heard that was a common problem for some LG screens. Very easy to do actually but the light on the screen now shows the pattern of the LEDs. The sreen and diffusers were put in correctly. Is this another " learning curve " thing to worry about?

[@rinusborg]

I mean all of the backlights, not just a few. Looks like wrong lenses on the strips.

I replaced the power board and my light still blinks and takes a long time to come on, if it does. I noticed when I switch from a standard digital channel to a HD channel it will go black and the red light starts flashing again. No sound or picture. Could it be the logic board? What about the capacitor in the main power wires going from the main in to the power board? What are your thoughts?

Hi there, at 8:50 of the video you are checking the 12v going to the "Tcom board". I checked mine and it's reading .02 volts. I already replace the power supply, cause I think the problem its on the mainboard. Any suggestions? Any specifics to look on the MB? Any step by step? Thanks in advanced.

[@TampaTec]

Juanma Natal yes main board

[@JuanmaNatal]

Got any recomendation of what to be looking there? And in what order should I'll be looking? Thanks again.

[@TampaTec]

Juanma Natal I had 2 bad capacitors on main board but not sure if that is your issue. if you unplug tcon board and get 12v then bad tcon board is causing voltage drop. if it's still .02 then check caps trace it down.

[@JuanmaNatal]

Hello Tampatec, and sorry in advance for my English mistakes. Thanks for your videos they are very informative and useful. I was wondering if u can help me with the problem i have on my old 2007 lcd tv, it's a Lg model 42LY95 (it can be used as heater during winter :D ). So the problem is when i switch on my tv everything is ok but after 5 min, the image start blinking black and make pixels (the backlight are still on at that point). About 1 minute after, the backlight switch off, i have only sound and the power button is still green, then i have to switch off my tv for a while, maybe 30 minutes to get any image and it's the starts again. So i opened my tv hoping to see any obvious problem with capacitors or anything burned but nothing so my question is: Do you have any idea where it can come from ? Is it just a symptom of dying backlight and if it is, is it repairable and worth? Anyway I will follow your tutorial and check everything i can with my multimeter and give update later. Thanks for your answer if you see my message and keep up the good work, love your videos especialy the "repair tech stuff by myself". I hope u understand my bad explenations. Greatings from France mon pote ;)

Hey Tampatec nice job with your videos!! I took some of your advice and tried a fix on my LCD (Samsung LN-T5265F) that has no back-light but sounds comes through and teh flashlight test shows teh picture is on teh screen. I replaced all 4 Back-light Inverter cards one at a time and I still do not get any back-light to see the image. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Fred.

I could help you. So, I found a huge tv. With the same problem. I read that it's just the l.e.d.'s. They need to be replaced. That's all

I have a visio m420vt and after checking the voltages, I found the 12v circuit to only have 11.3v. The tv comes on and the backlights work, but none of the other buttons do anything and there is no image. Would this low voltage cause this or think I have fried mainboard? None of the components show any signs of failure.
