    Re: Westinghouse DWM50F3G1

    Caps EC20 and 21 are both 100uf 100v. I found these Q15, IC3, startup/running caps EC2, EC3. and the rectifier, but not sure how to check those with a meter. About the only thing I am good at with a meter is checking voltage and continuity. I did try heating it. EC5 I did have voltage there when I checked before but after I put a little heat in that area I have nothing and also now the voltages on the LED output are all over the place. Anywhere from 25v all the way to almost 200v. It was not doing that before that I noticed anyway , but I was not holding the probe on there very long either. I too notice that I have a hum or buzz coming from 1 of the 2 transformers? between the 2 heatsinks. At blk/on I am getting close to 4v. As far as knowing if they are known good no. I bought these all in bulk and they where all suppose to have cracked panels, but I now know that is not the case because I have got at least 10 working sets.

      Well, at this point we know you have problem in the LED power supply section, and the heat seems to have affect on the output Voltage, it is not going to be easy to fix down to the component level without diagram. The circuits can be traced out but takes lots of works and time which I do not have.

        Well thanks for the help. I'll update if I have any new findings.

          I did notice this after pulling the power supply out. On the plastic shield on the bottom it looks as though something got real hot underneath C9F and C8f. I will attach pictures and if anyone has an idea of where to go from here please let me know. Thanks

            Have you measured them to see if similar resistors have the same value.
            Willing to help but I'm no expert.

              Just wanted to reply to this post and see if anyone has any ideas. I have tried 2 different PS and both are putting out 24.6V to each led set. I know the voltage is wrong but any ideas why both would put out the same? Trying to find someone else who has had the same problem with this as it has to be common. Thanks.
