    Sony kdl-40ex500 no power

    I picked up this TV today from CL. He said he has been trying to fix it for the last 6 months. He tried replacing the power supply and it didn't fix it. He had a repair place look at it and they piggybacked a fuse onto the main fuse. (Kind of cheesy). That didn't fix it. He also gave the repair place the other power supply board and that main fuse was blown. They said it would be a signal board. (Not sure what a signal board is, maybe the main board???).

    I plugged it in and there is nothing. No LED light on the front, no relay clicking. I am getting 170 vdc out of the bridge rectifier. I am also getting 3.3Vdc coming out of a couple of the pins and 2.7 vdc on the top right connector on the power supply.

    I would like to verify that it is a main board before I spend the money. I will take pictures soon.

    That is all I have for now.

    Thanks for any help.

      I received a main board today and it didn't fix it. I did a closer look at the power supply and found C6332 charred. Can anybody help with the value of this capacitor and if there is another one on the board that is can use for this cap. I have another power supply that has the same problem. Thanks for any help.

      PS: I need to apologize for the "cheesy" comment in post 1. I tried to replace the main fuse earlier and could not get the fuse out of the holder. I had to solder another fuse to the top of the old.

        Same exact problem with the charred cap. Got a full rebuilt kit including the millipede-looking IC from ShopJimmy and shows NO power (before it would blow the fuse every time). Any ideas?

          Sceptre U550CV-UMR 4K LED, Bad Caps on Main Power Board?
          by Dani_2024
          Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
          I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
          Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO

          Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...

          (SOLVED) - ONN 100012588 No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

          ONN 100012588
          Issue: No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

          Short answer: replace main board and power board
          Technical answer: replace main board and Q306 & Q307 on power board.

          Long answer:

          TV wouldn't turn on. Power switch was fine which means the main board isn't processing the power on signal. Replaced main board. TV turns on now but randomly reboots. Bad main board? EEPROM? Tried to pull main board and got a shock touching the corner of the board. That's weird. C334 (450V 10uf) capacitor is still holding a high charge....

          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...

          Is it possible to upgrade from a Vestel 17MB97 main board to a 17MB110 Main board?
          by cheeky2
          I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
          Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection...

          Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
          by advant
          This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

          I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...
