    Sharp lc-52sb55u - No power LEDs when I press power button

    Hey - I upgraded the firmware on my lc-52sb55u today, and I think something went wrong with that.

    I updated the firmware and the TV rebooted - and seemed to be working. I went out and came back later and found that the TV wouldn't turn on with the remote - then tried with the power button. Nothing happens with the LEDs on the front at all when the button is pressed.

    I checked all of the PD pins, but see 0V on all but 3.1V on the AC_DET pin and 4.9V on the BUSY pin. I tried to see if the PS_ON pin would get voltage for a moment when the power button is pressed, but no luck.

    Have any ideas on what to check next, or will I need to buy a new mainboard?

    This site has been awesome - I have read up a lot on all of the related issues I could find.

    Thanks for taking a look!

    I've also tried some of the tricks suggested to restore firmware - holding down the power button for 5-6 seconds while plugging in the tv. It didn't seem to do anything at all.

      Replacing the main board solved the problem.

        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
        by Tynan Dill
        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.

        Assuming...

        Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
        by PantherDave
        Hi all!

        I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

        I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

        Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
        by GLISIT
        Hi all,

        TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


        I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

        A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

        Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
        by sam_sam_sam
        I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

        One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...
