    Sony TV KDL-40EX43B

    Hi All

    I have a 40" Sony Bravia TV & Blueray KDL-40EX43B. During its life it didn't really get used much (max twice a week) so it was a bit of a surprise when one day it didn't turn on.

    The story so far, at first a DVD got stuck in the drive and every time I tired to turn the TV on the green light came on but no picture or sound, not even a boot logo or backlight. After turning it on and off a number of times I managed to get the DVD to eject and the screen turned on. Then after that time it has never booted again.

    So after checking the voltages on the power board I tried jumping the STBY3.3V pin with the POWER ON pin on the CN6401 connector and the backlight turned on. So I thought it was the main AV board (BU board I think its known as) so I changed it and now I am getting 3 flashes on the red power light. I have tried disconnected everything and plugging in things one by one but nothing helps.

    I have attached a word document with all the voltage readings from the power board.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks, George.

      If I disconnect connector CN2561 on the main board as shown in the picture attached and jump the 3.3STBY pin to POWER ON all the voltages on the power board are correct and the backlight turns on. As soon as I plug CN2561 back in the backlights turn off.

          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.

          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...

          TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
          by howardc64
          All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
          • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
          • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

          Sony Vaio SVS MBX-261 board failure
          by delpiero3
          Hi everyone, newcomer in this forum, i watched tons of video from Sorin, i like the way i calmly explain things, i did quite some console repair, i am not that bad at micro-soldering, but troubleshooting where the issue is, is definitely where i still have progress to make. Usually i was able to fix the console because the failure was obvious, or because i was able to find someone with similar measures on the board and was pinpointing what to replace that way.
          Nevertheless, let's say, i don't come as a total beginner.
          I have this old laptop, which suit perfectly my needs, with the...

          Sony KDL-40Z4500 LCD with stripes and 9 blinks (possible BGC board or harness problem
          by huj3r
          Hi there!

          I have a Sony Bravia KDL-40Z4500 which shows a colored vertical stripes pattern when turning on, with a central black shadow that slowly dissipates within the first 10 seconds.

          Photo of the situation after the black shadow dissipates:

          After this behavior the red LED will blink 9 times, then pause for a bit, and blink again 9 times, in a loop.

          I checked the manual (available here) and this corresponds to "HFR error", quoting from the manual:

          > This indicates HFR Communication error. [ HFR Communication...
