KOGAN KALEWD39SMTWA failure to launch
Just thought I'd get a few opinions about typical causes of this fault scenario.
These Chinese re-badged TVs have reduced the componentry down to an absolute minimum. There a small-ish SMPS, the smallest mainboard I've ever seen, and I assume tucked away somewhere but not immediately visible is a T-Con board.
Symptoms are: Start up from cold, all OK. Switch off into Stand-by with the remote, and sometimes it won't come out of stand-by. The LED indicator goes green, but no backlights or life as such. I'm told that sometimes it will come up with sound but no image (I've not witnessed this). Also reported that sometimes will sit there for awhile in 'green LED' state, but will eventually come to life. De-power at the mains and it will re-start OK.
It uses CapXon electros on the SMPS.
Thoughts anyone?
