    Sharp LC-32SB23U Power-on issues

    I pulled a Sharp LC-32SB23U flatscreen out of somebody's trash, took it home, and became surprised to find it completely functional --for a few days. Since last night, the TV will not power up. The green power LED illuminates and several relays can be heard; they click on and back off several times over the course of a minute. After that, the power and OPC LEDs blink once together followed by two flashes of the power LED alone. Based on my research, this indicates some form of PSU issue. Opening the TV and poking around caused it to power up fine on two occasions so I am convinced that the bulbs and other hardware are fine except some intermittent bug or bad contact, perhaps. I have done many cycles of removing the power cord and pushing various key combinations. I should also say that I performed a software update the day of the failure, but the TV worked fine after that for a while.

    Could somebody tell me the meaning of this LED code or provide a repair trick? I can also buy a new power supply board if needed.

    I looked into it further and learned that the blink code indicates a problem with the 13V supply. However, I can measure 13v present on the PS board output. What could be wrong?

      From the manual:
      Power led flashes twice, opc led flashes twice
      EU_POW
      Main 3.3V failure
      Flashes twice

      DET_POW3 (pin 36): Abnormal (L). Main power 3.3V is not
      applied.
      If error is detected during operation, error standby is activated
      by polling.

      This is what you get in the manuals these days.
      Looks like unreg. 13V goes to ic9641 (mp1415c) that gives 3.3 volts out on pin3

        IC9602 (MP1415C) regulates the incoming unregulated 13V down to a regulated 3.3V so would be worth checking out.

        Edit
        RJ is quite correct and it's IC9641 which needs to be checked out.

        Willing to help but I'm no expert.

          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...

          Bang & Olufsen (HP) Omen Laptop power light flashes once but no boot
          by dicky96
          Hi guys
          I have a B&O Omen laptop here. It has very specific fault symptoms, hopefully someone can give me some guidance

          If I plug in a known good 180W third party charger the little LED next to the power jack on the laptop flashes red once, but the laptop will not start. It will not flash red again unless you unplug and reconnect the power.

          If I remove the main battery (I can't see a cmos battery) then the led by the jack does not flash when I plug in the adapter, but if I press the power on button with adapter attached it flashes once white every time...

          Original NES power issues
          by sli4
          I recently turned on my old NES to find the red light won't go on at all. When powered on it shows black bars on the tv and a loud buzz through the tv speakers. Powering it off, the buzz goes away and tv goes back to normal (white snow).

          I tested the power supply itself and it is outputting 9V as it should - first two solder joints on the board at the power port show the same.

          Here's where it starts getting funky - When powered on, one side of the 7805 voltage regulator is showing 18V and the other is about 8.7V (center 0).

          On the big blue connector I get...
