    Sharp LC-37x20e power on but only for few seconds

    Hello, I'm a newby. I read a lot of post on the forum to search a case similar to mine, but nothing found to solve my problem.

    I have a Sharp LC-37x20e. I think I have a problem with power supply unit rdenca230wjqz (DPS-240CP) by delta electronics.

    If I leave tv unplugged from power for 1 day, then I plug it into the AC, the tv starts regularly (green led) and images, but after 1 minutes it shutdowns. No lamps, no messages, no standy-led after shutdown.

    If I unplug power cord for a while, then reconnect, the tv starts (I see green led), but now it shutdowns after few seconds.

    I downloaded service manual for this model and I tried to understand something.

    So I tried so umount power board from TV and make some tests. I cannot see any bad capacitor, so I tried to perform something other.

    In my tests, first I plug the power cord. I use my digital multimeter to read voltages on connectors.

    On PD connector (see image in detail) I can read (using as ground the holes for screws at corners)

    pin1 - NC -> 0V
    pin2 - NC -> 0V
    pin3 - NC -> 0V
    pin4 - PS_ON -> 0V
    pin5 - AC_DET -> 3.3V
    pin6 - PNL_POW -> 0V
    pin7 - SGND -> 0V
    pin8 - BU5V -> 5V
    pin9 - SGND -> 0V
    pin10 - SGND -> 0V
    pin11 - UR15V -> 0V
    pin12 - UR15V -> 0V

    I also read 0V on other pin connector at example INV60, UR12V etc. I understood it is normal because the power board is in standby mode. So I tried to connect 3.3V to PS_ON (it should be power on the board).

    After that, I can see voltages UR15V, INV60, UR12V etc, but only for few seconds. Then they go to zero V. I think I have a power board problem, because I got same problem when it is attached to tv, and when power board is standalone.

    I also tried to replace some components: D7121, D7918, C7150, C7151, C7152..

    I think the my problem is due to a component malfunction (it goes only for few seconds) but I'm unable to understand where could be this component.. May someone give me some help please?

    thank you very much.

    I'm also new but I can suggest starting by testing all the voltages with everything hooked up normal, with you removing the board you would have to add jumpers to trick the psb to turn everything on, testing the pins in standby then testing after powering on. You might also find which one is causing the problem by testing each pin as it shuts down also. Good luck there are a bunch of very intelligent people on this forum.

      When you force power supply on what do you read across the terminals of the big capacitor in dcv
      I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

          Hello,
          thanks for your reply.

          When the power supply is only connected to AC I read 305V at big capacitor.

          When I give 3.3v to PS_ON, in the meanwhile I read all correct voltages on connectors, I read 397V across terminals of big capacitor.

          When voltages on connectors disappear I read 305V at big capacitor.

            As a first step I would try freezing the four optocouplers while 3.3v to ps-on
            And also ic7601

              Possibly bad solder joint or bad startup cap. Try heating up the board with a hairdryer to see if it helps.

                Hi, thanks for your reply.

                Your suggestion give me the hint about thermal trouble. So I connect power board to TV, and to the AC. As usual the tv came up, but only for few time. After shutdown I disconnect AC power, then I tested with my finger searching for HOT components.
                The octocouplers and ic7601 seems to be fine.


                But I found IC7904 very very hot. So I tried to freeze it, then reconnect AC power.. the TV came up, but always for few time. So I tried to freeze IC7904 without disconnect AC power (only a bit freeze) and TV starts again. After that IC7904 as burned.

                Tomorrow I'll replace that component, it is TNY264PN, I hope to found it.

                I also hope that component burnt do not damaged other components. I can see anything strange in the board. I'll let you know..

                thank you

                  hi thanks for your reply. Maybe I found the problem. Tomorrow I'll replace the suspect component.

                      Check soldering. Check across pins 5 and 8 for short

                            That has to be measurement error since the AC_DET (it is the protection circuit that tells the main board if the incoming AC feeding the TV is within the operating range or not) circuit runs from the 5VSTBY (BU5V) power supply, so for you to get 3.3V on AC_DET pin that means the BU5V must be putting out more than 1V!

                              I will try to recheck my measurement (I remember I measured many times, but I'll check again)... making other checks I found the octocoupler IC7906 (PC123Y82FZ0F) has different behaviour than other similar octocouplers (IC7900, IC7601, IC7903, IC7902). I tested in this way (I don't know if it is a valid test):

                              I put multimeter in continuity mode to read ohms.
                              I put red tip on pin 3. black tip on pin 4. Then with a 1.5v battery I put negative on pin 2 and positive on pin 1. So I read a resistance value on mlutimeter. If I disconnect positive from pin 1 I read zero from multimeter. And every time I connect positive on pin 1 I instantly read values from multimeter.

                              This is true for all octocouplers except for IC7906. The difference is that of this I read ohm different from zero when battery is not connected. So I think this component is broken.. I'm rigth ?

                              thanks

                                "That IC601 is probably has blown Gate drive outputs when MOSFET's went out. I would not take a chance on a new pair of MOSFET's without replacing the IC at the same time." Are you sure it is not 'OL' on your Ohm display since your meter probes cannot have 0 Ohms resistance. What Ohm scale are you using? 200, 2K, 2M Ohms scale. The higher you go the less resolution you get.
                                Short your meter probes together, that will show the lowest resistance you meter can display.

                                  You are right I'm sorry.. I have to correct my previous findings. I have

                                  AC_DET = 0.37v
                                  BU5V = 1v

                                  When I made measures it was so late

What Ohm scale are you using? 200, 2K, 2M Ohms scale. The higher you go the less resolution you get.
                                    Short your meter probes together, that will show the lowest resistance you meter can display.
                                    Yes it is OL.. sorry but yesterday I was very tired.. Howevery I desoldered IC7601 and when not in circuit the component measurements seems ok..

                                    I'm very sorry for my bad measures

                                      Please disregard the ""That IC601 is probably has blown Gate drive outputs when MOSFET's went out. I would not take a chance on a new pair of MOSFET's without replacing the IC at the same time." comments, that is for the another thread anther TV, not your TV, sorry about that.
                                      So right now we need to find out why your 5V Standby power supply is not working properly.

                                          Hi all!

                                          I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

                                          I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

                                          Hi all,

                                          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...

                                          Hello. I bought a faulty Lenovo ideapad 3, but it turns out the 3Valw buck converter burnt a hole through the board. I was able to clean it up, and remove all the shorts. I now can power the 3.3v rails from a bench power suppy while connecting the laptop to its psu, and I get the additional 5valw, 1.8v, and 1.05v, form what I can tell in the schematics, those are the only 4 voltages I should see before turning on, and they are present. When I hit the power button, the power indicator on the left side turns on (not the one on the power button), stays on for about 12 seconds, then turns off for...

                                          Hi,

                                          Try to repair a Thinkpad P72 EP720 NM-B723 MB with I7-8850H processor and N18E-Q1-KB-A1 (P3200) GPU with 6GB memory. Unfortunately there is noinfo what happened to the laptop. I got it disassembled with parts missing, like keyboard, battery.

                                          Unfortunately I have no schematic available for me (requested in the sub porum) but got the boardview file.

                                          Symptom: after connecting to the charger the power led light up for one-two second and switch off. After a couple secons the power led light up for half a second and switch off. No battery, no IO board, no...

                                          Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
                                          by sam_sam_sam
                                          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...
