    Sharp LC32DH57E Aquos TV Power Issue

    Hello Everyone,

    I have been reading about how to diagnose and repair bad caps in an attempt to repair this television.

    When I plug it in, and press the "power" button, the LED turns RED, indicating standby. I press it again, it goes dark, indicating OFF.

    I have spoken with Sharp and they insist it goes RED for standby and on another press it should go GREEN, on state.

    The diagnostic does not work (holding down input and volume), I've watched a guide.

    None of the caps appear bloated, there is no obvious discharge from any of them.

    Attached is a pic of the board, please any kind of guidance would be great. I have no experience with electronics but really want to learn - and I hate the idea of throwing this away!

    Check connector between the two boards on back for bad solder joints.
    I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

      Hi,

      Thanks for the advice

      I looked, no pictures, look totally fine, there is no obvious damage anywhere.

      On rear of board around the solder points of that big capacitor there is a very small amount of some dark brown discolouration... might that indicate a fault?

      I am talking less than 1mm of staining, extremely small.

        You will need to take pictures of the boards and the whole back of the tv. You will also need to take voltage readings from power board connector to mainboard in this format

        Example:

        CN6201
        Pin Number - Pin Label - Pin Voltage
        1 - Power_On - 2.76v
        2 - AC Det - 2.86v
        3 - STBY 3.3v - 3.36v
        4 - UNREG 15v - 16.60v
        5 - UNREG 15v - 16.60
        6 - AU-GND - 0v
        7 - AU-GND - 0v
        8 - REG 12v GND - 0v
        9 - REG 12v GND - 0v
        10 - REG 12v GND - 0v
        11 - REG 12v - 12.05v
        12 - REG 12v - 12.05v
        13 - REG 12v - 12.05v
        I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

          I'll have to buy something to test the voltages, any suggestions for a cheap entry level tool?

            Start with a decent Digital Multimeter. They are not too expensive.

              PS3 CECHC03 60GB YLOD Troubleshooting
              by Woodsworth
              I have a post on psx-place for this but thought I'd try here as well in case anyone has experience or the schematics or any kind of help. Here's the original post from psx-place:
              START
              Hi, so I bought a YLOD Fat PS3 as I wanted a repair project and thought it would be a good way to get experience. I was able to solder to the RX, TX and Diag pads on the COK-002 motherboard and was able to get external access and retrieved the codes. I haven't powered it on beforehand so these should be the last ones. I did try to get internal access immediately after but kept getting scopen response...

              Issue with Sharp LC-42SB45U
              by claytongarcia
              Hello everyone,

              I recently got a model Sharp TV, and I've noticed that the green power LED is flashing without any specific pattern. Additionally, there appears to be no voltage coming from the power board. I haven't observed any leaking or bulging capacitors, although the top of the larger capacitor doesn't seem to be perfectly flush with the jacket—if that makes sense.

              Has anyone dealt with this issue before?​

              Sharp Aquos Lc-80LE757U flashing Sharp on screen when plugged in
              by sefoster
              I have a Sharp Aquos LC-80LE757U that randomly made a loud popping noise when when watching TV one day. We found that the fuse blew and the thermistor. We ended up replacing the entire power supply board and have also replaced the TCON board. Now as soon as I plug the TV in it lights up and has the Sharp logo flashing on and off of the screen. If I unplug the ribbon cable from the TCON board to the main board I get the 2 long 5 short error code. Any ideas on where to go from here? We've tried resetting it but nothing has worked. If we plug it in and let it cycle through the flashing of the Sharp...

              Sharp Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
              by scubacamper
              I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
              Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
              when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

              Issue with Sharp LC-47SB57UT
              by leorivers
              Hello,
              I bought Sharp LC-47SB57UT 6 years ago. I had to have a vhf antenna to pick up one local station(koco channel 5 OKC). It has worked great up until a week ago. Sometimes I couldn't get channel 5, now I can't receive it at all. I can hook up a digital convertor box I have from another tv and can receive channel 5.
              I think the antenna and cable is ok. I doubt that this would be the tuner board or possibly something else.

              Any ideas where I should start?​
