    LG mainboard substitution!

    Any LG experts out there who could advise me. How do you identify LG mainboards as a suitable replacement when the one for your set is not available.

    For example I was recently looking at an LG42LA620V-ZA with board details:-
    EBT62383453
    EBR76730903
    EAX64797004 (1.1) 13.07.10 B.K.H. 183X225
    LD33B/LC33B/LE33B

    However there were mainboards available for an LG 42LN578V board details:-
    EBT62383453
    EBR76730903
    EAX64797006 (1.2)

    And also for an Model LG 50LA620V board details:-
    EBT62383453
    EBR76730903
    EAX64797003(1.2)
    LD33B/LC33B/LE33B

    Do you go by EBT, EBR, EAX numbers or all must match?

    Thanks

    No expert, but.

    Here i believe go by EBT, EAX will be the board pcb but if it's laid out the same , move on. A quick search shows EBT62383453 fitted to 42 - 50 " models (LG LA620V )

    The EBR numbers are showing the same .

    Obviously some aspects will be different like the eeprom data which holds the Model, serial and runtime.

    You can simply copy that and re-write the new board eeprom. Always save the originals files just in case it goes belly up.


    probably need more time to analyse 42LN578 board, some imagery would be helpful on your part.

      Re: LG mainboard substitution!

      Thanks for your reply which is appreciated. I'll find some photo's of the different mainboards and add them on.


      Edit
      To me they all look identical although I would agree that the information within the Flash IC's would be different.

        @tw2005,

        How do you copy that eeprom data?
        If using a board from a different sized TV, but of the same series, could you just reload the firmware from the proper sized TV via USB if that TV brand supported it? That way the firmware from the correct size TV overwrites that of the different model.

          I don't have all the answers or for all situations but I have a very cheap and simple CH341A ebay special, clips onboard and suits 25 series SPI and 24 series EEPROM.

          The clip that came with it was rubbish, had to get a decent POMONA clip which was 5 times the cost of the original item.
          There is some guesswork and research involved but I've had some fun with the pannys and now an LG. I could even go in and rename the model or alter the serial to match. Could also do the same on a laptop motherboard too.

          also handy for those corrupted and having to reflash. Done a couple of cheapies that way where they won't do anything if the firmware is bad.

          I just find it handy. I have a Sanyo, all it needs is the firmware, but the auth distributer won't help, can't find the file, really sucks considering the board is 100% good, just bad software.

                if you let me know what the main board model number is and panel info, i will see if i have one in stock. currently cataloging what i have in stock. it will take a while to get through it all, but i can keep an eye open for you.

                      i have added it to my wanted list and will also keep an eye out where i get my sets from. i'll give you a heads up if i come across it.

                        The EBR number for the 42LA620V was EBR76730903

                        So it looks like you have to match both the EBR and EBT numbers exactly when substituting.

                        I don't have the set now since the person realised they had a 5 year warranty on it still running.

                        However trying to work out the correct substitution of LG boards is still useful to know.

                          I was thinking EBT, anyway all three have the same EBT and EBR yet look at th eRev of the data on those chips. There is a firmware upgrade so I bet once applied they'sd all end up the same. Chances are any of those boards would operate it and then you could like i've said copy or edit some data to correct the model and serial

                            does anyone know if a 42LF580V would work in a 50LF580v main board ?
                            Thanks

                              Dell Latitude 7420 - Touchscreen not working since Mainboard replacement
                              by Mirenia
                              Hi everyone,

                              I've got a little "problem child": my Dell Latitude 7420 2-in-1, which had a faulty mainboard.
                              I replaced it, but ever since, the touchscreen no longer works — and honestly, I’m running out of ideas…

                              In Windows Device Manager, I just see an I2C HID Device with error code 10. Sporadically, the touchscreen is recognized correctly for just a few seconds, but I haven’t been able to determine under which circumstances this happens.

                              The touchscreen also doesn’t work in UEFI/BIOS, although it’s enabled...

                              MASTER TL240 and new mainboard LW36BKC01
                              by orcic
                              Hello,
                              I have an old MASTER TL-240 LED TV. Since it stopped working and it had a DVB-T receiver that is being dismissed in Italy, I've decided to replace the mainboard with a DVB-T2 one.
                              The original problem was that when switching on the TV, the power LED was transitioning from red to steady blue, without showing video or audio.
                              After checking some voltages on the power supply board (HKL-240101-B Rev. 1.4, HKL from now on) someone suggested me to replace the mainboard.
                              Now I have some doubts about how to connect the new mainboard to the old power supply.
                              First of...

                              Vizio M43-C1 - How closely do I need to match the mainboard number?
                              by Devonavar
                              I have a Vizio M43-C1 stuck in a reboot loop with no backlight.

                              I've tested all the voltage rails coming out of the power supply and they are "normal" for this model (PS_ON & DIM go high when turned on, BL_ON & 3D_ON are close to zero due to backlight power flowing through the mainboard, 5VSB is 5V, and 12V is 19V, which is apparently normal for this board).

                              Basically, I get similar results to Garry in this post: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=80346

                              So, I've ruled out the PSU for now.

                              by Malva
                              Hi everyone,
                              I'm trying to repair my LG 49UB850V TV (WebOS 1.0, UHD model from 2014).
                              Mainboard model: EAX65684604
                              PCB marking: EBT62954607
                              SPI chip: Winbond W25X20CLNIG Problem description:


                              Originally, the TV would turn on (backlight and LED OK if I force them on), but it shut down as soon as any input was received from the IR sensor or remote. The backlight and power board were working fine.

                              After testing and verifying the voltages (DRY ON, PWR ON, 12V/24V rails), I suspected a corrupted SPI firmware. What I tried so far:

                              Hi

                              I have a QN65QN90A which was purchased around launch I guess making it about 1.5-2 years old... had been working fine until a few days ago, simply went black and would no longer turn on (at all). No standby light and no typical PSU relay click etc. Absolutely dead.

                              Pulled it apart without doing much research first, suspecting the power supply as it had a faint buzz (I guess due to the forthcoming found short), investigated PSU for some time and concluded there was no fault that I could spot with the board removed.

                              Came to learn after a bit more research...
