    I've done some repairing. If I knew what to check and what the readings should be I might could trace down the issue. Is there a diagram or manual to show the readings?

    Thanks

    i always try to repair to component level, my ego collapses otherwise, depends on your repair background..

    Would it be worthwhile to try to troubleshoot and find the bad part (s) or just order a replacement board?

    I have already replaced the T-Con board.

    Probably a faulty eprom or dc dc converter on main board

    I replaced the T-Con board and still have the same issue.

  • Samsung UN60EH6000 wont come on after lightning strike.

    We had a lightning strike a few days ago really close to my house. My Samsung UN60EH6000 was on when it hit. Afterwards, the TV would not come back on.

    I had repaired this TV a few years back by replacing the T-Con board. (The post I had on this is repair is here.)

    When I turn on the TV, I don't get any start-up melody. The screen just dimly flickers around the edges.

    Here is what I have checked.
    On the power supply board, 14pin connector:
    1 :12.7 Vdc
    3 :12.7
    5 :12.7
    7 :12.7
    9 :0
    11 :5.
    13 :5.

    Also On P/S board I checked the voltage going out of it. There are pins 1-9 (See attached image of connector).
    Pin 1 to 4 (D1+ to D1-) =170Vdc
    Pin 2 to 4 (D1+ to D1-) =170Vdc
    Pin 6 to 9 (D2+ to D2-) =170Vdc
    Pin 6 to 9 (D2+ to D2-) =170Vdc

    I also unplugged the ribbon cables between the T-CON and the front panel. With both of them unplugged, the screen is black. With only one of them plugged in, the opposite side of the screen is totally backlit. (see image below).

    On T-Con board, I checked the F301 fuse and there is 12.7 volts on both sides of the fuse.

    I am thinking/hoping the T-Con board is dead again. Before I order a replacement, is there something else I can check to verify this is the issue?

    Thanks for all the help.

    HP EliteBook 840 G6 – no power after lightning strike
    by Bardou Kari
    Hi,
    I’m trying to fix an HP EliteBook 840 G6 that stopped working after a lightning storm.

    – Charger is OK and 19V is present at the motherboard.
    – No charging LED, no fan, no reaction.
    – I don’t see any 3.3V or 5V near the coils.
    – Battery is unplugged.
    – I’m new to board repair but can use a multimeter.

    I added a clear photo of the board.
    Any idea where to start or what to check next?
    Thanks a lot for your help!...

    Panasonic TH-50PX80 killed by lightning strike, help me save her!
    by SluggerB
    Yes it's a 17 year old Panasonic plasma!

    I was watching TV when there was a huge lighting strike nearby my house that shook the house. When that happened, the picture on the TV froze and the TV wouldn't turn off except by pulling the power cable. Now if you plug in the TV, it seems to turn on (it makes the turn on "clikcs" it always does, the red power light comes on but there is no picture, although I can see the back light around the edges. And the TV doesn't respond to the power button on the remote to turn off, and doesn't respond to the manual power button on the front...

    Lightning Strike: 55" TV dead: is display panel OK?
    by MrCreosote
    THE LIGHTNING:
    This was a very close strike, blew a 15 amp breaker for all ceiling lights in home AND could smell ozone for a few minutes after strike.

    Very close and probably a very strong EMP.

    THE TV:
    No standby LED. Some voltage from PSB (not totally dead).

    But found a kit of ALL 4 circuit boards for $55.

    At first thought, this will fix my TV.

    But then lightning has the ability to totally fry semiconductors. Which would include any or all of the PCBs. However, the display is one big semiconductor and given...

    advices for repairing Sony Bravia 32EX600 after lightning strike
    by pbig
    hi everyone,
    my parents in law have seen their Bravia Sony LED 32EX600 TV set stop after a lightning strike. After being plugged to mains, it shows nothing no power LED on bottom left shines.
    On the power PCB (GE3b, attached pic), I chacked the fuses and the only roasted one is R6536 : 0.47 ohms, 1/2W. After replacing it, I made some voltage measurement with ref to the chassis :
    - the 450V/150uF capacitor voltage when plugged is normal at 394V
    - from connector CN6150 (15 poles)
    STBY normal 3.3V -> I shunted it to 3 (POWER ON) and 11 (BL ON) and unplugged...

    Hello Everyone.
    This powerful amplified subwoofer doesn't make any sound after lightning striked near the house were it was plugged in.
    It consists in :
    • a power board were the full H bridge class D amplifier and main power rails are located

    Power rails are ok.
    human interface is working fine
    Input levels are...
