        there is obviously something else going on and just having 3.3 standby voltage alone does not mean standby light wqill come on....wqhich everyone said it should come on....sony proved everyone wrong lol

                    retract....i shouldnt say a lot of tvs guys dont know more than me..since im just a self taught very novice...but it seemed like a lot of tv guys gave me about 5 diff reasons why tv was not powering on and all were wrong..........tv repair is not easy especially with all the new technology...not so simple....and sony seems to be a big pain in the butt..........they dont even put part # on their parts lol...........anyways thanks budm for all your help...tv is not fixed for a economical 40.00 and hours and hours of troubleshooting

                        Bro tv guys with tvs in their hands run test. You are talking around the test. I actually thought that statement was rude, even retracted, even no pun intended.....

                            bottom line is how can 5 different tv "experts" give me 5 different answers

                            that tells me most of them arent tv "experts"

                            it gets frustrating when people pretend to be "experts" is all im saying

                            i appreciate all the help from the actual experts though....like bud m

                            thank you

                                Zombie Samsung UN55NU6900F dead / no standby voltage - randomly came to life after hours of troubleshooting then died
                                by tvguy12012012120
                                This is my first attempt at troubleshooting a board like this, I know I could just buy a new board but I'm curious to figure out how this works. I've been testing different components in the evenings this week and I think the problem is with the IC failing to start up for some reason. When the board is plugged in there is no standby voltage.

                                Then today it randomly sprung to life like a zombie but shortly died thereafter. I have no idea why it would have done that and its the first time I've seen it running. I discharged capacitors on the board last night, then it was sitting today....

                                Greetings to all, a while ago my TV was dead, it didn't turn on and the standby light was off, the next day it is working. But these days it no longer wants to turn on, I did some troubleshooting, I disconnected the main board, I checked the voltage on the backlight and there is 400 DC, when I connect it again the main board the voltage drops, in all that troubleshooting, miraculously the standby light comes on and the TV works. After an hour I check and test, I turn on the TV, the Stanby light flashes 3 times and it...

                                Vizio D50u-D1 Dead Set No Standby
                                by fharris1977
                                Hi. I got a Vizio with no power or standby, and won't turn on with remote or button. I checked the voltages on the connector and all read 0.00V or nearly 0(0.050 ON/OFF pin). None of the pins are labeled STB for standby although I do see some 5V pins. Other than the obvious standby led, which isn't coming on, is there a way to check for standby voltage on this PS. I'm trying to see if my problem is the PS or mainboard. Some Vizios I have fixed with no standby led me to think it was the PS but it turned out being the mainboard. Any experience with this set would be greatly appreciated.

                                Sony HCD BX7700dbi CMT flashing standby
                                by rabbituk
                                I have got a Sony HCD-BX7700dbi that isn't worth a lot but I'm keen to learn how to repair and would appreciate some help with my train of thought. The protection circuit is kicking in and the standby light is blinking. It goes into protection mode within a second of powering it on.

                                So far the relay on the power board that enables the main transformer clicks on and then off when powering on the unit. Looking at the schematics, the permanently enabled power rail called 'unreg sub' provides about 13.5VDC. Where the power comes into the main board on connector CN303, there is a diode...

                                LG C1 65'' dead standby
                                by jacobtc
                                I've owned this C1 from new since late 2021, and it has now suddenly started with the following symptom:
                                If power has been connected for a while, the red standby lamp turns off, and the tv wont turn on (no reaction from remote or button on tv).
                                If power has been disconnected for 5 minutes, the tv turns on fine, until turned off and left for a couple minutes, as the standby light will then turn off again.

                                I've seached and found that this is most likely a failing PSU, and I've seen repair services on eBay fixing these symptoms, so I am hoping that someone here has fixed...
