Hello guys this will be my first post so plz be gentle lol. im working on amagnavox 42mf439b/f7 the issue is it powers on i get a solid green light and then the standby light flashs once every 15 to 30 secs ive tryed checking the screen with a flashlight as no backlighting comes on but no dice. ive checked all the caps and to the eye no bulging or bad caps. the set is unresponsive to the power button will only shut down if i ulplug the main board or the cba board. ive replaced the digital main board just out the go since it was pretty cheap. next thoughts were t con or inverter board ? im somewhat dmm friendly and can solder so fire away any help appreciated!

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
maybe check the fuse on the tcon board, the label will start with an F for fuse. -

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
i quick i know probably newb question but on the inverter board where it is labeled high voltage it has a small copper like space..is this a testing point for voltage ?Comment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
On pic 121643 we can see 2 fuses in the inverter board, 8A/160V. I would check those first. Good luck!
They are near the connectors.Comment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
So you replaced the big brown board on the right?
This one of those FUNAI/SYLVANIA/EMERSON/PHILIPS/MAGANAVOX TV.
Is there a chassis number printed on the model number sticker?
For example:
42MF438BF7_LC8.14LA
"LC8.14LA" is the chassis number.Last edited by budm; 01-02-2015, 08:07 PM.Never stop learning

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
Yes both fuses on inverter board Check out at 24v and I get voltage at the caps on the inverter board but past the caps those transformer things lol dunno what there called there is no voltage. Both sets of connectors the red wires are all 24v.Comment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
ok so budm this is the board that i replaced the digital main and then the sec picture is of the other connector on the inverter. all the red wires as i said read out 24v but the 4 blue wires voltage are all very low im not near the set to take the readings again but i will tonight .... and i will also try and get that model number you were asking for.Attached FilesComment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
ok budm the only thing i see on the model number sticker other than 42mf439b/f7 is is off to the side in a white box that says S fl9.2Comment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
maybe check expected voltages coming from power supply, a lot of them have legends by the connectors, that show expected voltages 3.3 ,5 ,12 ,24, etc.Comment

Re: 42" Magnavox trouble
ok on this inverter board i get 24v across the red wires the vbl then the rest as follows
status 0v
E-pwm 0.7
I-pwm 0v
On/off 1.7v
and sony i will have to try testing those in diode and let you know what i getAttached FilesComment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?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... -
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

Hi There,
This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.
After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt... -
Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.
Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
CN6401
Pin 01 NC
Pin 02 NC
Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
Pin 04 "N/C"
Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
Pin 06 "GND": N/C
Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...
