    RCA LED LCD TV LED60B55R120Q no power

    This tv is acting very strange. You press power, red standby goes off and tv comes on, perfect picture. it will play all day long. Turn the set off. Come back in a few hours, and it won't turn on at all. Unplug it from the wall, and you might get lucky and it will come on. Then it won't come on. I checked the power supply and it is good. However when set won't turn on, has standby, but missing 12 volts I had a westinghouse with same symptoms, I replaced the power supply, the main board, and the small broad with the eeprom on it. Still the same problem. Is it possible that this is a lcd panel or backlight issue? Has anyone ran across any common issues with LED tv's with this problem?

    Please help

        it is not a separate board, it is on the PSU. A connector marked LED +, LED -... etc. There is another connector close by has a BLon pin. Turn the TV on and measure that pin. If the backlight is out, but you have more than 2.5V DC on that pin, I suspect a LED failure. Next would be to take measurements of LED + and LED -. See exactly what happens when you turn the TV on.

            This one is a service call, and I didn't take any pictures.

              Re: RCA LED LCD TV LED60B55R120Q no power

              I think this RCA is just like my post on the Westinghouse. On the westinghouse I diagnosis ed it as power supply. I ordered a new power supply. Installed the new supply. and no fix, installed new main board, and no fix, ordered new FRC board??? not sure if that is correct name, anyway. I think I have found the original problem on the old power supply, other boards were sent back. I think it is the LED driver transformer. I pulled it off the board, and all my voltages returned. Having trouble finding the part. VLD-LEDTV1251-L7 this is for the Westinghouse.

                  Re: RCA LED LCD TV LED60B55R120Q no power

                  This tv really has me confused. 2 out of 10 times, you can power it up and it comes on and works perfectly for hours. Power it off, and then it will not come back on. With tv on and you pull the cord from the wall, and then 2 out of 10 times, it will come back on. When it is working all voltages are steady, no unusual heat problems. NO unusual sounds.
                  I troubleshooted the power supply, and reworked about 30% of it soldering. I can't find a thing wrong with it. I tapped around while it was working, to try to get it to shut off.

                    THere are only three other boards on this tv, T-con, main board, and another small board that I don't know the name, but I know the eprom and microprocessor is on this board. Back when they were all one board, I would have replaced the main board, but i don't know which one to replace. I pulled the ribbon cables one by one, all the ones I could pull, and no signs of life. I unplugged the LED cables one at a time and still nothing. I don't see know it could be the LCD panel or the backlight LED's and work for hours and hours with no issues. I think its a eprom, or main board. What do you guys think?

                      I should have mentioned this first. When you power the tv on, and nothing happens, if you shine a flashlight on the screen, there is no date, no menu, nothing.g on a No backlight. Just like the set is no turning on at all. It is this way with both remote, and manual button.

                        I'd be looking at the main board. Upload a picture of it, so we can see which one you have. Try freezing the eeprom (can of air upside down) and turn the set on.

                          Unfortunately the RCA is a in home service call. I forgot to take pictures. However, I think you will understand my question. There are pictures of the westinghouse boards.
                          The square board seems to have the eprom and the processor on it. Am I right about that? So the board that your thinking I need to replace is the one with the eprom, right?

                            The RCA tv has the same configuration of boards. What I would call the main board on the right. I don't know what that square board is called. However it looks like the main processor right in the middle, and the eprom just off the top left corner of the heat sink.

                            thanks for your help

                                You do need a better camera. The first pic is a FRC (Frame Rate Converter) board. The second pic is the main board.

                                There are a few different versions of the main board available and I have no idea which one you have. Anyhow... SJ lists a EEPROM for it. So freeze UL2 (it sits top left right above the main IC and under the connector. Can't miss it. Freeze that UL2 IC and turn the set on. Make exact notes and pictures of the boards. Also make measurements of PSon and BLon signal when the TV is going nuts.

                                  another, the focus is terrible. Thanks for clearing up my confusion on where the eprom was located. I will order a main board.

                                    TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                                    I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                                    A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

                                    I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                                    One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                                    Hey All,

                                    I have a Sony 65x900f that I purchased cheap because of a no-power issue.
                                    I assumed that because there is no standby light visible, it would be an easy fix - however upon opening up of the unit I can confirm that the 3v3 standby voltage is making it's way from the power supply to the main board. I'm a little confused as to why there is no standby light.

                                    I am firstly wondering if anyone has this model of TV, or has worked on one and can give me some insight. I have tried to find a service manual for this model, to no avail - and would really appreciate...

                                    Hi everyone,
                                    I'm trying to troubleshoot and repair this old LG OLED curved TV, model 55EG910V.
                                    I did some basic troubleshooting and reviewed most related posts here, but I wasn't able to isolate the issue.

                                    The TV shut itself off during playback and never came back to life - the standby light remains off. My dad claims that it has happened a few times in the past but the issue resolved itself after some time. Not this one.

                                    After checking the basics I did the following:
                                    • I measured all voltages and as expected the only active supply is the 3.5V standby. It
                                    ...

                                    Disconnected JK3 power board from main board, checked voltages on all the pin outs

                                    At a few pins I can see the power supply providing 19.5V to the main board
