    Should be half of voltages of VIN

    Good news..

    Have you check PGOOD1 after 15VPCU get normal?

    Also we need to know about RTC_RST# and SRTC_RST# and ACIN.

      Yes i think we are progressing in the right direction

      NO PGOOD1 yet because there is no MAIND signal to power the EC with +3V

        Interesting. In that case why PR272 shows 19V on VIN side and on the other side it shows no voltage after adapter is plugged in.
        ACIN voltage is 3.3

          Also what should be the ideal voltages on gate of PQ67 and and PIN2 of PQ68 before the power button is pressed.

          I also want to thank you for supporting me this far. You all are amazing.

            Would appreciate if you anyone can share their valuable inputs when they have some time.

            Thanks

              Actually didn't know power sequence on this model (HK1) a bit different with HK8 (mostly come to my bench) S5_ON signal turn ON after pressing PwrBTN. While HK1 seem S5_ON turn ON (actually on your board) after plugin adapter.

              What I've been thought that First EC need supplied by 3.3V, for purpose this only need EN2 ON and OUT2 present. Meanwhile EN1 (S5_ON) delayed or after by Pressing PwrBTN, this could be happen. Even if bios didn't supplied by 3V providing that EC got supply it could be. If HK1 should be like this, so S5_ON seem this signal premature.

              Found Power of sequence but don't know is correct or not.

                A pair resistor as voltage divider, then the value Gate PQ67 should be 8-9V, this in state DISCHARGE. (all voltages S3-S0 discharge)

                  The gate of PQ67 is 6.5 volt.

                    Yes S5_ON has 3.3 volt as soon as adpater is plugged in.
                    PR272 shows 19V on VIN side and on the other side it shows no voltage after adapter is plugged in. Is that normal ? RVCCD does generate just fine.

                      Anyone has any suggestion as what should I check next. I think we have progressed well so far after we have achieved 15VPCU.

                      Wondering why Pgood1 is not generated on PU9
                      Thanks.

                        I don`t see you mention about RTC...post#81.

                        What about VCC_POR# pin 85 NPCE?

                          For the PGOOD1 test the pin 11 of PU9 Voltage(2.5V)? + test PR148/150 , this is the feedback of 5V to PU9

                            I noticed that 3V was generating fine but 5V was not generating as it should. The output of COIL PL14 had 5V but the input side showed no voltage. 3.3 volt was generating just fine.

                            I tried replacing the PU9 IC and now I dont even have the 3.3 volt. What could have gone wrong ?

                                yeah it was indeed bad soldering but now I have resoldered it almost pretty good but no luck.

                                Pin 6 - 19V
                                Pin 4 - 5.5
                                Other pins have no voltage.

                                Have I damaged this IC due to bad soldering?

                                      SONY KDL-46R473A ALMOST DEAD NO STB
                                      by bohaboha
                                      Hello to everyone in this wonderful forum.
                                      I have this SONY LCD TV KDL_46R473a
                                      PSU GL5 APS350 :1-888-122- 12
                                      MAINBOARD FY13_EU IP-012C101-4010
                                      black screen ,no STB no life almost death.
                                      on PS all the required volts are present 394V on the main cap and those on cold side 12.41V,3.45 and 3.45 are on
                                      Also 3,5,and 12v are on.
                                      nothing happens if i disconnect the PSU from the mainboard as on Samsung because here i think the mainboard gives the signal to the ps.
                                      don't know what to do next all suggestions and advice are very welcome​...

                                      Sony 55W905 dead
                                      by Talyn
                                      Hi,
                                      My Sony W905 started to turn itself off an on every few minutes and blinking 8 times red in standby. A few minutes later the tv was completely dead.
                                      I can only hear the click of the PSU when attaching/detaching the power cable. No standby LED.

                                      Any advice? Thanks!

                                      I have a KDL-55W755c that came in dead - not even standby light going on. Tested the power supply - all correct. Tested the output pins on the Led driver board (in which the power cord plugs in) - all seemed fine.
                                      I got a service manual for this model and tested the DC/DC converter by checking voltages on selected components. Every voltage was present where it should be. Service manual says that in this case a "Muffin" replacement is needed. This is the moment where I got stuck as I wasn't able to Google my way through it - till this day I...
