    Sharp LC37GD8E c7558?

    Does this model have the capacitor c7558 to bridge so I can see the service mode without it shutting the screen off?

    I took a look at the board earlier and couldn't find it, I took a couple of pictures of the board where I thought it would be located if it's of interest to anyone.

    Any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks.

    Nobody ever worked on this model?

        Doubt it will be the same capacitor, however it will be possible. That being said, whilst I used to do this I no longer recommend it. I was given the TV back that I did this on, and one the bulb connectors had completely arced and melted the back of the panel, it can be a hazardous modification to do.

          Hi Tom thanks for the reply, yeah I figured it could have been a different capacitor, I wasn't wanting it as a long term fix, I was just interested to see what the log would say. It just seems impossible to find any sort of documentation of anyone doing it on this model.

          Do you know if I were to just disconnect the faulty lamp(s) if the set would power up without protecting itself? Provided they are what's at fault.

          And just in-case anyone was wanting to see the picture I took, I'll add that here it's where I suspected the capacitor to be, somewhere around IC7501.

              To know which cap you'd need a BD9777 datasheet or schematic for that area or reference schematic for the BD9777.

                I'll remember that for next time Selldoor, thanks. I'll have a poke about for a datasheet Tom. If I do manage to come across one, what should I be looking for which would indicate the correct one?

                    In your picture to the left of BD9777 there is a small switching transistor. In the picture it looks in a bad way compared to the others - is it ok?

                      I think it's just the way the light is hitting it because surely I wouldn't have missed something looking like that, but to be sure I'll take a look at it tomorrow. I'm currently trying to find something that will tell me the which pin is which on the IC

                        I'm tearing my hair out trying to find any form of diagram for the IC even the inverter board itself, time for a relaxing bath and then maybe get back to the search.

                          I just hope you remembered to put it on the table muzzle down on the blanket
                          and didnt get your trivial dangling harness caught up in the cold mattress.

                            No clear pin you can jumper.
                            Unfortunately, set will not work without lamp connected, this will trip OVP (over-voltage) warning which is usually what causes the 2sec2black fault (there is also over-current but this usually only relates to bulbs shorting to chassis, which is a rare failure.)

                              Hahaha, I have no idea how you found that Selldoor, but that was damn hard to try and read whilst trying to make sense of it, which I didn't lol.

                              I tested the transistor earlier and it came back as fine. I tried disconnecting lamps earlier Tom, I've only just read your post. I tried disconnecting the second inverter board so only the 1 was running, I tried disconnecting the lamps, I read somewhere that holding vol down and chan up would reset the error but nothing worked, all did nothing.

                              I even had this weird idea that if I disconnected the inverter completely then the IC causing it to protect wouldn't be able to function and that although nothing would display, the light should remain green as if to be working. But that changed nothing either, still turned itself off as normal.

                              I'm unsure how to proceed now, more research is required it seems, hopefully someone other than the Russians have managed to fix the issue and has documented it online somewhere

                                C7558 is located at pin 1 T7502

                                To bypass the protection OVP in ic BD9777 connect PIN 14 to gnd.
                                The backlight should light, but no service mode.

                                To access service mode hold “VOL-“ and “INPUT” keys at same time that AC cord is connected.
                                Next, hold down the “VOL (-)” and “P ( ▼ )” keys on the set at once.
                                Using keys (UP/DOWN), go to [LAMP ERROR RESET], using keys (LEFT/RIGHT)
                                go to [LAMP ERROR RESET]. Finally, press “OK” to pass Lamp errors counter to “0”.

                                    So, I attempted the bypass and I broke it. I was already in a pretty bad mood before I started, but due to lack of attention and carelessness on my part, I broke a leg off the IC and then I punched it.

                                    So It's under the table for the foreseeable future.

                                    Thanks for the help guys! I'm sure I'll find another project soon enough.

                                    On another note, does anyone know if there is an electronics servicing course? Like a city and guilds or something, I know years back my dad did one called 224 electronics servicing but I can't find today's equivalent.

                                        Thats on the back of the main board.

                                          Hello,

                                          I have a Sharp TV that is powering on with backlight and picture then after 5 seconds it turns off. The front LED blinks after shutting down.

                                          I checked the power board voltages and have 12v, 5v and 3.3v on the standby when first turned on then the STB goes down to 1.4v after a second.

                                          Where should I go from here?

                                          Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board

                                          This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

                                          I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...

                                          Sharp Aquos Lc-80LE757U flashing Sharp on screen when plugged in
                                          by sefoster
                                          I have a Sharp Aquos LC-80LE757U that randomly made a loud popping noise when when watching TV one day. We found that the fuse blew and the thermistor. We ended up replacing the entire power supply board and have also replaced the TCON board. Now as soon as I plug the TV in it lights up and has the Sharp logo flashing on and off of the screen. If I unplug the ribbon cable from the TCON board to the main board I get the 2 long 5 short error code. Any ideas on where to go from here? We've tried resetting it but nothing has worked. If we plug it in and let it cycle through the flashing of the Sharp...

                                          Sharp 80” long short flash backlight error - Help

                                          Hello Sharp TV experts
                                          Our Sharp LC-80LE642U displays one short one long flash error code which is a backlight error. I went into service mode and there were 8 lamp error counts recorded. I reset the count to 0 and did a reset. The last monitor error cause was 16 B00014639:12. 16 is the code for backlight error. I tried to power the tv up but went back into error mode.
