    Westinghouse LVM37w3 input board.

    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...t=westinghouse

    This is the original thread but it full of stuff about the PSU. Eventually I went ahead and bought a new PSU, installed it and the logo light is on but pushing the power button results in nothing.

    There are few lytic caps on the board:
    1 Sanyo 1500uF WX 25v
    4 TAICON 330uF 0607 35V
    1 TAICON 470uF 35V

    The rest are polymers.

    I don't think it's the PSU. Something is not working on the input board, could it be bad caps or something else dead?

    Any ideas? I do get a 5V from PSU but no other voltages, unable to tell if inverter or lamps are bad, because I can't turn on the set.

    This is the only pic right now waiting for the PSU to slowly discharge, before I can remove the input board safely.


    *I do apologize if linking to another thread of mine is prohibited, I won't do it again I just want a fresh thread to start with, and focus on the input board.

    Try checking the fuse below connector CN10. It marked with a "T" and silkscreened 5A/24.

      I see it, tested with DMM showed 01.0 on the 200 setting.

      edit: added more clear shots of the board except it's in two parts.

        Took a pic of the back side I had a hard time trying to get a clear shot.

        Anyways I think I'm going to recap the taicons and see what happens, I'm shooting in the dark, maybe I'll get lucky.

        330 are VT and 470 is VR, anyone know if these are good or bad taicons?

          Ripple

          Ok so in my westinghouse thread *which no one is viewing either they're busy or they don't know.*

          I have set of taicon VR 35v 470uf and VT 35v 330uF and looking at the datasheets the ripple for the 470 is 650 and for 330 it's 440, both are listed as general purpose but doesn't show the impedance value.

          I have a Panasonic FM 470uF 35v it's ripple is 2.18A/19mOhms, and FM 330uF is listed as 1.79A/30mOhms, but what confuses me is this is high ripple cap vs what I want to replace that's low ripple.

          Maybe I don't understand ripple, I've been told on here to match or exceed the ripple rating but if I have too high of a ripple could it affect the operation of the board? or is ripple rating like voltage rating as in allowable ripple current that can pass through?

            Re: Ripple

            Ripple is a max value. Max ripple the cap can take. So, you can allways go higher in ripple, but you should not go lower.

              Use Panasonic FC. The FM's ESR is too low here.

                  Re: Westinghouse LVM37w3 input board.

                  Replaced caps, still it won't turn on, I tested the voltage I get 1v, 3.3v and 5v where the supply plugs into the logic board, at the other end where the switch/button board plugs into I only get 1v, and 3.3v there's three wires that have no current at all. I assume I need a 5v current for the switch?

                    My brain scrambled on what a 5 volt current is. That must be up there with a 12 amp wattage.

                    Just a technical joke.

                    Voltage, current (amps), and wattage(power) are three separate things. Just a geek like myself cant pass up a chance to comment.

                      Sorry I was running tad late for work so I just wrote what I thought.

                      Jokes aside, what I meant was, I didn't see any voltage, and was wondering if there should be 5v rail for the button/switch board.

                        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.

                        Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
                        Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

                        by Hakuu
                        Hi There,

                        This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.

                        After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

                        More Details

                        Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt...

                        Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
                        by jb_Bak
                        Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

                        Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
                        Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
                        CN6401
                        Pin 01 NC
                        Pin 02 NC
                        Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
                        Pin 04 "N/C"
                        Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
                        Pin 06 "GND": N/C
                        Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

                        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
