    Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

    Hmm I thought the T meant time delay ie slow blow and thought he needed these
    http://uk.farnell.com/multicomp/mst-...-5a/dp/1566097.

    However looking at the state of the board perhaps an external fuse holder on leads would be the way to go? - or the Bulb?


    LATE EDIT DEFINITELY NOT THIS ONE ITS ONLY .5 amp not 5Amp

      Good point, although that probably wouldn't fit...

      This is a time delay type.

        Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

        Oh I think I've removed the wrong thing. Is the fuse the long thin thing inside a plastic jacket that almost looks like a perpendicular resistor covered in gloop? In that case you had one of the pins right but I think the other one is below it not to the left. The thing I removed was the grey box next to it (I thought the fuse was inside it?)

        Trying to find the second pin for it I snapped one side, but at least now I can test if it *was* working if I touch one pin to the remaining solder joint, and the other to the other side of the fuse I get 00.5 (same as touching the pins together)

        If I touch it to the grey box I get 0L (same as touching nothing).

        Just in case I'm still not sure what the fuse is, I've uploaded another photo. The grey box is next to the side of the fuse (?) that's still in place. http://i.imgur.com/e9FB2.jpg

        Farnell seem to still have a minimum order of £20 for card payments annoyingly, so I might have to try ebay after all.

          Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

          Are you sure about the minimum order £20 via card? For me it is £0.01; but I have made a few orders before...

          The grey box is a capacitor (for filtering the interference produced by the rest of the power supply), no need to remove it.

          What you have partially removed is the fuse.

          Damn I hate the manufacturer for using a soldered in fuse.

            Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

            I ordered a Raspberry Pi off them in the past but apart from that I've never used Farnell. I'll solder the capacitor back in when I get a fuse, but doesn't the fuse giving the same resistance as touching the probes mean that the fuse was working?

              Assuming you were probing across that component you half removed, then yes, 0.6 ohms is good for the fuse.

              There might be another fault on the PSU.

                I thought the grey box was the fuse also - couldnt see the C1 designation. If its good is the fuse repairable?

                  Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

                  The fuse isn't repairable I don't think. I pulled a leg completely out, so I'd need to desolder the leg, solder it into the fuse and then back onto the board. Possible, but I'd be too worried about it breaking again (for the sake of 15p).

                  Should the capacitor show 0L. resistance? Is it possible that's blown? Or is that expected until the capacitor receives enough charge to discharge (it's been a long time since I learnt how they work!). The plug coming onto the PSU is a little shoddy too, but given that's straight 240V I'm scared to test it.

                    Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

                    Id just leave the cap for now - that type dont often go wrong.
                    I think that the mains connector was one of the points I suggested you resolder. Maybe take off most of the solder and apply fresh. Do you have
                    a solder sucker or soldermop. What Watt is your iron?

                      You're right it is. I'm away for most of today so I can't check the board or the soldering iron, but I'll try it tonight and let you know I'll also try to temporarily repair that fuse just so I can see if it worked. The soldering iron and sucker work, but they were free years ago with a Real Robots magazine and the iron starts to smell after a while. Also, the tip doesn't get hot, just the side of it. Maybe I'll use a decent soldering iron to bring my Farnell order over £20

                        Ok - IF you can see what you need at CPC they currently have a free postage if £10 spent online offer - BUT its only for a couple of days.

                        Next thing to check might be the bridge rectifier - I think I have marked it in pink on the attached. It should have 4 legs and it might be marked
                        with + ~ ~ -. the two middle ones being mains AC.
                        It is just an ohms test for open circuit. So Power off - Red probe
                        on plus black on adjacent~ record reading - reverse probes - record reading.
                        Then Black Probe on - Red Probe on adjacent~ record reading - reverse probes and record reading.

                        When fuse is fixed if Bridge is good next test will be the Mains cap 400v!
                        so practice first with it switched off/ unplugged - could still hold voltage if faulty so care is still needed - polarity must also be observed for that test meter on DC 600v.

                          Managed to break both sides of the fuse lol. Oh well, I'm not going to risk bypassing it.

                          I'll order one tonight and with any luck it'll arrive before Monday

                              Not really sufficient... Too small, will not interrupt the required current. Will just burst.

                              If you want I can put the order in for you for cost. I think Farnell will let me ship directly to you, I will need to check otherwise I could just use a stamp..

                                I feel so cheap but I'd definitely be up for that. I do need some stuff at some point just don't want to rush in and get the wrong things

                                Any chance you could order a few quid of solder as well? I'm down to the last 20cm of my free sample

                                PM me if you can ship to me and I'll give you my address?

                                  Don't worry - I've got about 1kg of the stuff - clear out from work place (leaded stuff that they aren't allowed to use any more.) I'll send you a bit.

                                    Re: Polaroid 32in LCD FLU-3232 no power

                                    Okay I've got a fuse in place (badly, I still need yours - I've got a fuse holder that doesn't fit so it's sat a couple of inches above the board held in place by two wires from a mains wire).

                                    I tested it when it was on, and I'm getting 230V AC at either side of the fuse. The bg capacitor is giving me 130V at one side and 150V at the other. I turned it off again and checked resistance of the bridge rectifier (400ohm) and got 0L for every possible combination. I took it out of the circuit and tested it again, same.

                                    I take it this means I need a new one?

                                        You need to test on the diode test mode. Usually a bridge rectifier fails shorted. Also, you should measure the capacitor voltage VDC across its positive and negative terminals, in standby you should get around 325V. (310 - 350V range.)

                                          On LED mode it gives:
                                          Not touching anything: .018
                                          When touching pins together: .006
                                          Red on +, Black on ~: .022
                                          Black on +, Red on ~: .007
                                          Red on -, Black on ~: .009
                                          Black on -, Red on ~: .016


                                          Occasionally I got a negative reading but I was unable to replicate it afterwards. I'm now getting 0.012 with them not touching. why does a normal resistance test not work here?

                                            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...

                                            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

                                            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...

                                            Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock

                                            I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

                                            This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board
