    Lg w2234s

    Hi there,

    I have an LG W2234S screen that doesn't work. When plugged in it does not power on when the power button is pressed. No power LED, no display - nothing.

    I have replaced all the caps on the board with Panasonic FM series parts (apart from the small cap which was a generic equivalent model of the correct capacitance) with the exception of the large one which remains the original.

    I have tested the power to the logic card from the power board and it appears to be correct. The two voltage regulators on the logic board also appear to be within spec at 1.8V and 3.3V. There is also a voltage drop across the power switch as I would expect but obviously the screen isn't powering up.

    I have also noticed that the large cap on the board takes a long time to discharge, ie a couple of days to drop from the measured 320V - i'm having to manually discharge it prior to working on the board.

    Thanks for your advice as to the next troubleshooting stages.

    Possibly corrupted U108 on the signal board. Did the original caps show signs of failure? Also, I can't locate U104 on the signal board. Is it on the back? Or did they skip that number?

      Visually the original caps appeared to be fine however I replaced them just in case. There doesn't seem to be any components on the back of the signal board - so U104 seems to be missed out.

        Is there a way to test U108? - do you also reckon the power board is working?

          I believe the power board is working; certainly after recapping and your verifying the voltage are correct there is little I can suggest checking on it.

          U108 almost certainly contains the firmware (the blue dot is a dead giveaway). The only way to check it would be to remove it from the board, hook it to an appropriate programmer and adapter, extract the code and disassemble it. This is well above my skill level.

          This board and others like it use a 'fly by wire' approach - the power LED and everything else is controlled by the processor, U105. The datasheet on it is not available. There was one other possibility. There was a run of problems due to a failed reset controller. This would be a 3 pin package much like Q103, but with a U designation. That is why I asked about U104.

            Ok thanks PlainBill, I'll try and source a replacement logic board then.

              Thank you for this thread and the clear pictures! I was able to source a new logic board for my W2234S, that was going all kinds of crazy colours and turning off.


              Don't really want to post a link but ebay seller called goldpart sells the logic boards from china.

                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...

                Problem

                This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                LG OLED77G1PUA - No Video / Audio after a TCON Board change and Software Update
                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

                TV Model - LG OLED77G1PUA

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

                Panasonic TC-P54VT25 No image. A or D board?
                by canadaboy25
                I have a Panasonic TC-P54VT25 that will power on and prime the display but there is no image at all.

                The panel is primed as there is a slight glow from the entire panel. This means the problem should be logic related. The service manual also confirms this and recommends replacing the A or the D board.

                I have tried to get the TV to display the test sequence but I have been unable to and I don't even know if this TV has a test sequence or not. I tried following tom66's instructions in post #3 on this thread https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=26790. There was...
