Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
Bad news for Mother Earth! my 3 Emerson tvs- complicated tv set- have all different problems.
I fixed two more LF391EM4F . One tv has 3.3v standby. Mainboard has all voltages present , changed EEprom fix the problem.
Other one has no standby 3.3v, but flex cable from power supply has 3.3v (pin 8 AL+3.3V).
cn3601 pin 8 is 3.5 ohm then Trace to IC3601 AP1117EG-13(+2.5v REG) pin 2 is 0.2 ohm(shorted to MSD8200DS-S1).
Took out processor IC3001 then everything's Okay. Need to order MSD8200DS-S1 .Last edited by capwizard; 07-09-2016, 09:17 AM.Leave a comment:

A ESR meter is 1k or 100k HZ signal generator + low Ohm meter
What do you think, If I put a capacitor to filter out the signal from test lids or change to dc voltage, then read out the value of resistance bridge. Thank you.Leave a comment:

That EDS-88A is a nice tester, better than what I have. I like it. I can't find any for sale, maybe there is a newer version out there. I guess I will have to find a used one.Leave a comment:

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
@CapLeaker Thanks for all hints but I'm too much of a coward to use external power supply to do an injection (Because of a bad past experience.). It will save a lot of time.
Seems it is a common problems of this kind of TV .
Another victim:
citywidetvtech Emerson LF401EM5
Was making a chirping beeping sound when trying to power on. AMP+13V Line shorted to ground. C3637 just below the black ribbon connector on main board is shorted.

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
What?That is totally awesome. I got to test that out. Do you know how many TVs will never hit the dump because of this? This is so awesome.
I will let everyone know as soon as I get around to it.

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
Good news for your 5 Emerson TVs and Mother Earth! .....Will cost you almost nothing to repair!
After I removed Amp IC and two down-converters IC3605 & IC3604. Mother board still has short. So, I cut two traces of PCB to isolate the problem. found the low resistance 8.4ohm was caused by..................A SMD cap 4.7uf C3637...................I put all the parts back, but omitting the C3637 cap. The Emerson TV works beautifully.

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
I took a break on that TV but I plan to get back to it. It seems there is a very small component causing all the trouble. I think I am going to do what CapLeaker suggested in post #8 and that was to put power to it and see what part warms up and that may be the bad part.Last edited by Shane711; 07-02-2016, 05:51 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
@Shane711
What's the resistance between AMP+13v* to GND**?
Mine is about 8.4 Ohm(not dead-short),after removed Amp IC and two down converters IC*** still the same... 8.4Ohm! Is there any luck?
* CN3602 pin 6,7,8,9.
**CN3602 pin 10,11,12,13,14,15.

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
Did you follow the 21V from page 52 back to page 48? IC3201 and Q3282 (this one may not be installed)? All around these IC's that are on the 21V line there are chip caps to GND that could fail, zener diodes, other transistors...Leave a comment:

Is there a way to test a voltage regulator when it is removed from the board?Leave a comment:

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
There is no longer a short on the board. I found a bridged solder joint and fixed it.
Take the IC off? How about taking them all off because that is just what I did and with NO results.
Well when I blocked off pins 1, 2 ,3, & 4. I believe these are the 12v. The buzzing stopped so it is on that line somewhere.
I removed 1 IC at a time and tested the board. I did Not replace any ICs, I just left them off. IC3604, IC3605, IC3603, & IC3006 EEPROM. No change. Then I decided to remove the audio IC3801 but no change. So I thought it has got to be the main IC3001 MSD8200DS-S1 but no, it was not. Now I have all the major ICs removed and the buzzing is still there. Really? Like are you serious? So now I am thinking is is something so simple and I do believe it is worth it to remove every single component on this board to find out which one is bad because I will know and everyone else will know how to fix this problem.Last edited by Shane711; 05-11-2016, 09:58 AM.Leave a comment:

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
No luck so far. Changed all the caps and didn't make a difference. I have ordered some RT8293AL and the main IC MSD8200DS-S1. Coming from China so it will be 2 to 3 weeks. I am determined to figure this out because so many of these boards are going bad. I can fix it, yes?
I currently have 5 bad main boards with the same problem
I will post all my progress as I come along.
Well I hope you figure it out...
Now since you have a few of them bad ones doing the same thing, take that IC off we talked about earlier and see if that short clears.Leave a comment:

Re: Emerson TV Buzzing-Won't turn on LF391EM4F
Do the same thing to all the voltage rails one by one, so we can try to isolate the problem. You also can try to identify and compare what resistance you get between a voltage rail and GND and compare that to the good main board. BTW: you were right with pin 16.Leave a comment:

by Dani_2024Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO
Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...5 Photos -
by ygorsanHi everyone,
Iām looking for help with a persistent issue on an LG TV model 55NANO77SRA, which uses the main board EBU66792103 (also used in LG UQ80 and NANO75/NANO80 series).
š§© Problem Summary:- The TV keeps scrolling through the menu or selecting items by itself.
- I removed the physical button board (the entire panel with power and volume buttons) and also disconnected the flat cable (CN202) from the main board.
- The remote control is not in use (batteries removed), and the TV still shows the same behavior.

by jb_BakHey 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"... -
by cheeky2I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection... -
by advantThis 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... - Loading...
