I have a Sharp LC60E77UN that I picked up over the weekend. I'm excited about this one. It's the biggest TV I've worked on to date. The TV powers on and off with the power button. There is backlight and sound, just no picture. I suspect T-Con. The set apparently has two T-Cons, RUNTK4225TPZZ (the bigger squareish board) and RUNTK4221TPZA (the thinner board). I've found the SM, but can't find anything to help troubleshoot my no video problem, just specific inputs. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you to the guys at HEGE supporting Badcaps [ HEGE ] [ HEGE DEX Chart ]

Re: Sharp LC-60E77UN Good Power, Backlight, and Sound, No Pic
The bottom board is a frame rate converter for the 120Hz feature probably.
The top board is the T-con board although it appears to use an FPGA (basically a fully customisable logic chip, not fixed structure) so its functionality may be different.
I'd check all regulators, fuses and make note of test voltages. You may want to consider borrowing the scope, as you can trace the LVDS signals and see if any are present or missing -- just a matter of seeing where they are going awry.
Several of the flat flex cables look a little dodgy, so I'd also try re-seating them.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

I'm not sure if I'll be able to get the scope anymore. It's a long story but it had an intermittent no start issue that I had nothing to do with and it seems like the EE suspects that I did something to it. I may have to buy both boards and return whichever doesn't do the trick.

You may want to consider investing in one, for around $50 you can get a decent analog one. It may also be the main board though that is relatively unlikely.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

You can get an analog scope for under $50

which will be suitable for the diagnosis of the signals coming into and out of the t-con board.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: Sharp LC-60E77UN Good Power, Backlight, and Sound, No Pic
You would be looking at each of the LVDS data lines between boards, you can see the differential bus (traces tight together.)
If there's no activity on those from the main board, likely main board at fault (but rare, given sound), if there's no activity on the FRC motion processor (I think that's what the middle Sharp board is) then that's bad (if it's got input coming in), if nothing coming out of T-con (and it's got input), then that's bad.Please do not PM me with questions!

10X. You want to probe the TA1+, TA1-, TCLK+ etc. lines but you only need to probe one with a signal on it... you don't really care about what the signal is just if it is getting lost.Last edited by tom66; 09-20-2013, 03:42 PM.Please do not PM me with questions!

Re: Sharp LC-60E77UN Good Power, Backlight, and Sound, No Pic
I can't get the TV to change source to the DVD player I have hooked up. I can't tell if the input button just displays a menu that needs to be cycled through with the channel button or if the input button actually changes the source. With that said, there is absolutely no difference across any of the pins coming from the main. I don't really know how I should have the scope set up though. I'm not sure what the waveform would look like if there was a change.
