I there!
I have this TV set that doesn't even light up the st by led. I fully checked the PS board and this one is fine, it provides 8.9V when Stdby and 13V when ON (forces by DRV_ON pin according to service document)
So I checked the main board and it is not able to even light up the stdby led and of course it won't obbey to ON button or remote signals
I checked all caps on board, none of them is shorted. I took some voltages at those caps, some of them have 8.9v on one side, some don't have any voltage. I see some coils and smalls IC's near banks of SMD capacitors that look like DC-DC converters, there got to be at least one source for 5V and probably some others too (3.3v...), but I can't find any other voltage other than 8,7 across the whole board. My guess is that some DC-DC is not working, but I don't know which one.
I also tested all cap banks with a ESR tester but the results were inconsistent, probably because some of them need to be tested out of the circuit.
I checked all diodes and Q's for shortcircuits and they were all good. All DC-DC coils show ~0 Ohms too
Also the issue is not in another board (TCON...) because I've tried all this with no other cable other than PS and IR board attached.
I'm attaching a close up view of this main board to see if anyone can suggest any idea on where to look at now
Thank in advance!
