    LG 47LM960V , No sound

    Hello!

    The speakers produce no sound except for some very silent static. The tv has a subwoofer that works, but after a while just goes silent, restarting the tv turns the subwoofer back on. Ive changed 3 ICs (NTP-7500L) as well as measured output voltages(12v DC - half the supply voltage) , Power supply voltages(24v DC) the 3.3v normal is also there. Using an external amp i can hear the audio in(lots of static in it however). the only things left are the amp_reset and amp_master_clk which all come from the microcomp(R5F100GEAFB). The headphone jack also works. i hope someone has had a similar problem.

    Im attaching the Service manual and a picture of the IC

    Thanks in advance!

    Check the mute signal, the transistor and capacitor are not shorted.

      Something that sometimes works, plug in and out the headphone jack several times, just something to try.

        Checked the input signals with an osciloscope- they look alright. sda and scl as well as the aud_master_clk seem unreadable. The transistor and capacitor are alright, checked the same cap on the subwoofer amp- all good. The 3.3v are coming to the fault pin , but what worries me is they are 3.2 not 3.3v. Usually this doesent matter but i read somewhere that its okay to be 3.4 not 3.2. Tried plugging and unplugging the aux- didnt help. Reset the audio master settings-still nothing. The IC gets hot, meaning it does work, so at this point im narrowing it down to the MICOM microprocessor having a communication problem with the amp.

          UPDATE: After tinkering around the transistor for amp_mute, the sound came back leading me to believe the problem might be a faulty transistor as disconnecting the collector of the transistor seems to have fixed the problem. Either that or a bad solder joint somewhere around it.

            Most likely it's not soldering, but there may be a leak in the transistor junction.

              That tv chassiss suffer from bad cpu solderings, if you buy a special long nose "clack" plier, sorry i know only italian name "pinza a scatto" you can test it carefully..
