    where to start? logic board or power board?

    Veeeeery new to this but after looking around for a course to learn about electronic repair i have had no luck finding any actual education courses anywhere.

    so firstly thanks to everyone here for creating and providing a source to people like me who enjoy this as a hobby and want to learn.

    im not sure if this question has been answered or even if it is answerable. is there a list of symptoms that i should be looking for to diagnose HV switching / power supply / logic board. with regards to flat panel tv/monitor repair. i would like to start threads with pictures and digital measurements but i dont want to flood the forum by posting the wrong board.

    thanks again everyone

      that info is exactly what i am looking for thanks!!

      2 more question before i get started.

      #1 although i dont have one now i have seen tvs that have one line running from top to bottom with no color. like a stripe. is this a faulty T-con board? can something like this be repaired?

      i ask because i have some broken tvs to chose from to practice on and i am wondering if they are worth while to take home and wrestle into my apartment.

      #2 i have seen a guy on youtube who made something to test the bulbs in a lcd monitor it ran off of a 9v battery and when he plugged it in the bulbs came on. what is this or what is it called? how do i buy one or make one?

        1) With PlainBill's help, we narrowed down my friend's TV to a fault t-con. Case notes at

        https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=12100

        2) This is the video by John Preher. Ask him at

        If you get non working TVs for free, take them and try to learn. Troubleshooting TVs is much more difficult than computer LCDs due to more boards and multiple power supplies.

          Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
          by Tynan Dill
          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

          Assuming...

          Sceptre U550CV-UMR 4K LED, Bad Caps on Main Power Board?
          by Dani_2024
          Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
          I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
          Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO

          Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...

          Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock
          by sam_sam_sam
          I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

          This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

          After all of...

          (SOLVED) - ONN 100012588 No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change
          by JDC
          ONN 100012588
          Issue: No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

          Short answer: replace main board and power board
          Technical answer: replace main board and Q306 & Q307 on power board.

          Long answer:

          TV wouldn't turn on. Power switch was fine which means the main board isn't processing the power on signal. Replaced main board. TV turns on now but randomly reboots. Bad main board? EEPROM? Tried to pull main board and got a shock touching the corner of the board. That's weird. C334 (450V 10uf) capacitor is still holding a high charge....
