Hey Guys, I have been reading quite a bit on and off for years here! I will start off by saying I am a hobbyist. It's hugely satisfying and hugely frustrating!!
I am hopeing someone may be able to help me with some schematics for this chassis and maybe some help with common failure points of T-Cons...?
Voltages off the pwr supply is good,Sound is ok , backlight is on, this tv has a rep for tcons ...so I am fairly confident its shot.
I have been able to repair one tcon with a shorted cap( in parallel with 6 others).But that was pretty easy to locate.
The fuse on the tcon is fine. I was poking at some caps and noticed there were 2 caps in series( so it seemed), there were 4 caps total that displayed this: when grounded to the frame with my dmm the voltage would start at around 5vcd and then slowly drop down. Then after looking around the board a bit and going back to them they would be around 3.5vcd and then drop down as long as I had my lead on them. Is that a bad power supply? The feed power going to the tcon is 12.68vdc....
Am I ahead of myself? Is that a good place to start?
I would REALLY LOVE the manual for this!!
Also, I have an ESR meter coming and a component tester to help me in my turmoils
