    Phillips 47pfl7422d/37 Left side dim

    Hi All,

    I've done a bit of reading regarding other users who have had the same problem. The caps on the slave inverter were clearly blown soI went ahead and recapped both the master and slave inverters using these caps.. However the left side still appears to be dim. (The right side is working fine).

    I considered trying to use the master inverter on the left side to see the CCFL is still working properly. But the cables aren't long enough for me to do so. Now I'm left with the option of trying to obtain replacement inverters from eBay. Any other suggestions before I sink more money into repairing this set? What are the odds that the lamp on the left has simply died?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Most likely something else is blown there, not just the caps. FETs are OK?

      No visual burn marks that i noticed. I guess I would need to go back and test them with a multimeter. But if the mosfets are bad I'd most likely replace the inverters.

        I ended up getting a replacement slave inverter off of ebay and recapping it. The TV has been working great ever since.

          A2442 MacBook Pro 14" Two Left SIDE USB C ports charge but no data
          by Stephen
          Right SIDE usb.c port charges and transfers data without issue, two left side uSB c ports charge but do not receive or see data. Was liquid damaged, and repaired significantly and thought we were in the clear but appears this is the last issue that is rearing its head. I am trying to locate the RETIMER chip that communicates the DATA TX/RX but I cannot seem to find it on the schematic or maybe I am just so tired my eyes wore out lol. Any help would be great.

          Problem

          This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

          SMEG induction cooker error EA on both left hand side cooktops
          by Gjackson
          Hi all,

          I have a SMEG cooktop with a EGO 72.08041.002 power board. The two left hand side cooktops started to slowly fail, sometimes stopping with an EA error (Power board failure according to the manual) after a couple minutes boiling some water and eventually they completely failed and now get an EA error on both of them at all times. Visual inspection of the board went over ok, I checked the IGBT's and rectifiers and they seem fine, what should I look at next as this is the first time I'm fixing an induction cooker, I'm suspecting capacitors in this case, Which ones should I look...

          Samsung QN75Q6FNA backlight no display, red LED blink 2x, fault in panel
          by howardc64
          • Prior owner tried a replacement main board. No difference.
          • Samsung 2x red blinking standby LED = panel fault
          • Jumpered FB_TRDY_1 (pin 1 CN1300 left. main tcon->left side buffer boards) and FB_TRDY_3 (pin 95 CN1301 right. main tcon->right side buffer boards) This allows testing individual T-Con (on main board) connection to panel on this Samsung. Found fault on left side (viewing from rear of TV)
          • Each side has 2 buffer boards, disconnected left side flex between 2 buffer boards. Fault is on the left most board.
          • Tape masking eventually isolated to CN1300 pin 15 (CKV4_GOA) Display
