    Re: Sony KDL-40s4100 No Picture/Sound/Backlight

    Ok Power off for 5 Minutes can you unplug the connector at the top right (In your picture)
    meter on ohms 2000 check the resistance across the connector pins.

    Did you try unplugging and replugging the connector mentioned by
    1978 mustang

      i tried that harness according to mustang and the problem was still there, Now i disconnected that top right harness, where do you want me to take ohms readings? pins from where to where?
      to the PWr supply or the A/V board?

      Thanks

          1- 1.66 K
          2- 1.66 k
          3- .005
          4- .006
          5- 1.25 k
          6- .001

            Sorry for wasting your time I should have said top left The one from the transformer to the inverter.
            Everyone reading will have wondered what did he ask that for!!

                  Your power supply is fine. This is a common problem on this model. The main board is the culprit. Not sure what the exact problem is on the main board but I suspect bad solder joints on the board. I could not find any other issue on the board and do not have a proper reflow station to go that route.

                  I have had a couple of these with this problem and both times a new main board (A board) fixed them. The issue is that the A Board is hard to find below $100 and the part has to match to the TV. There were at least two different panels and A Boards used in this model and they are not compatible with eachother.

                    Thanks, looks like it is the A board from this end as the back light does flicker when i disconnect CN303, i will see if that is worth fixing with a good price for the board, or else it will have to go for recycling. ;-)
                    the only thing i like about this tv is the fact that it has a 1080P, too bad it is a 40" as mine is 42" but doesn't have the 1080p as it has the 1080i on a Light grey background screen as the Sony is black which i also like.

                    unless you guys have one for sale around?

                    Thanks Again

                            My KDL-40S4100 set is experiencing some issues but a bit dissimilar from what was described above.

                            What I have - all normal voltages coming from PSB to main following those printed next to C301-303. I am able to get sound but no picture on any input. I DO have a backlight visible and the inverter shows no signs of failure.

                            In addition to having no picture, the set turns off after 1-2 minutes of use (with audio only). There is a slight hum coming form the power board which makes me think it is no good. I'm leaning towards replacing this board as it is quite cheap at the moment.

                            Any opinions?

                              test any fuses you can find on the t conn board test for dc voltage each side of the fuse if you cant locate them post a good clear picture of the t conn board

                                I was able to locate one fuse -- it measures 0V on one side and 11.56V on the other. If needed/helpful I can post another picture to provide reference.

                                  so it looks like the fuse has failed for some reason are there any markings on it or printed by it

                                        so its a 3 amp im not too sure to be honest how to check the tconn for shorts etc lets see if one of the more experienced members will chime in with some resistance checks you can do failing that are replacements tconn boards cheap?

                                          Appreciate the help, vinceroger69. I knew they were very cheap so I might go ahead and just replace the board hoping it fixes the issue.
