    LG NB4530A , stays in standby/wont turn on.

    Hi guys ,

    Purchased a defective LG 35mm ultra slim soundbar which i want to repair.
    The only thing it does is giving me a red standby light when the mains is plugged in.
    I dont have the remote but the touch buttons on top won't turn on the soundbar , the LCD stays black!

    It uses a 25v/2A powersupply which measured good. I opened up the soundbar and there is not much inside. Just 1 big mainboard and a few small boards with hdmi/bluetooth etc.
    The 2 fuses are ok and there is no visible damage on the board.

    I could not find any service manual for this soundbar and what you see on the pictures is what is inside. ( no big power supply , just caps... ).

    Anyone got experience with these soundbars?


    My first guess is to start replacing the capacitors and see if it changes anything. On picture 6 is a IC701 that has a heatpad on it.... not sure what it does but that would be my second guess....


    thanks!

    I looked up the part IC701 and it is TAS5612LA which is a 125 W Stereo/250W Mono HD Digital-Input Power Stage.

      I found a repair manual for a similar model ( 5530 ).



      I will follow that repair manual and replace the components. Will let you know the outcome.

        I am having a hard time repairing this soundbar because i don't have the correct service manual. The service manual listed is for a later model. Looks almost the same but im missing a few components.

        Following the service manual i replaced 2 dc dc converters ( TPS54231D/TPS54233 ) and a schottky diode but im pretty sure im not getting the right voltages. I got 25v going in IC608 and 5.5v out....i think it has to be 12v going eventually to the amp section. ( IC701 )

        Even after replacing the part i get the same voltages. Also in the IC701 section i get 25V in but there is no voltage going to the schottky diode. SM says i need to replace the diode if i don't get voltages. I replaced it but still same issue.

        I got a feeling the MICOM is dead.

        I had the luck that i found a replacement board on a polish site so i wil go for that and will order the MICOM cpu and see if it will fix my issue.

        Will keep you posted.

          If you look at the spec sheet of the TPS54231D/TPS54233, you will see that the resistor network connected to the VSNS determine what the output Voltage should be, see page 15 of the spec sheet so look at the value of resistors and use the formula to calculate the output Voltage.

            Thanks! Will check the value of both resistors and do the math.

              Re: LG NB4530A , stays in standby/wont turn on.

              So i got a replacement board from a polish site.
              The soundbar turns on , display turns on but nothing comes on the display. Just blanco lcd.

              It only responds to the power button ( on/off ) and no sound coming from the soundbar.

              Have to take a deeper look into this soundbar.

                by PNI E.
                Hi guys, I’m back here my friend give me her tv, that doesn’t turn on and no standby red led. When u plug in the cord the red led of one two second is on, then turn off. If you push the power button or the remote the red led blinks but nothing happen. I give u some photo with voltage, don’t look the fuse….because I blow it for mistake nd I dint have the right replace so I just put it for test the tv. The standby voltage should be 11,88 volt on the diode, but I have 13 volts. I put in the photo the different volts I test and there are someone negative…I don’t know if it s normal. On...

                Harman Kardon AVR 171S - standby led lights up, does not turn on
                by madsox
                Greetings!

                Thank you in advance for your understanding, I am writing to you through a translator.

                A Harman Kardon AVR171S amplifier was given.

                The history of the machine is as follows:
                It was faulty when I bought it, I want to fix it.
                I replaced the HDMI switch and one of the DAC ICs in it.
                After that it worked without a problem.

                I watched a movie using the amplifier, and at the end the amplifier got really hot.
                The cooling was faulty, I will fix this later.
                I switched it to standby mode, waited for...

                Lenovo Y700-17ISK turn on and off
                by pajdek
                Hello, i have some issues with my laptop Lenovo Y700-17ISK (motherboard BY511 NM-A541), it started when i turn on the laptop, but the lcd wont turn on, i then connected it via hdmi to tv and screen was ok. So i thought maybe lcd stripe is faulty, i removed the bottom cover, disconnected main battery, reset the cmos by disconnecting battery for 1 min, then slighty move the lcd stripe. Conncted power supply and tuned on my laptop, the lcd turn on, it started to load os, then it turn off, after a second it turn on, then after like 3 seconds turn off again, and so on. Removed power supply, waited...

                Samsung LN32B540 - won’t turn on but gets standby power
                by Doodle43
                My Samsung LN32B540 never turned back on after I had to turn off the power at the mains at house. It won't turn on, but the red standby led lights up when it is plugged in. If I hold down the power on the remote, the standby light turns off which I think means it is trying to turn on, but there's no sound or backlight. If I try to turn it on/off from the power button on the TV instead, it doesn't do anything at all.

                It was plugged into a surge suppressor and was off (on standby) when I turned off the power,, so I don't know if it got a power surge or was on its way out anyway. I...

                Troubleshooting Vestel TV, has standby, but cannot turn ON
                by Adenitz
                Hello,
                I need advice in troubleshooting Telefunken TV (it is actually Vestel). There is red Standby light but TV cannot be turned on either by remote control (which is good and tested on another TV) or by actual on/off switch at the back of the TV.
                Power board is Vestel 17IPS71 and I'm not sure about the mainboard, it seems like 17MB82S
                Both boards are shown in the attached photos.

                What is normally first that is checked in this case. I have removed power board, make sure it has no dangerous voltage on the big caps and check many components (transistors and diodes)...
