    bn44-00264a Does anyone like a puzzle? Please help!

    So I've got the dreaded bn-44-00264a with no power. After a kit from my favorite supplier Shopjimmy, the TV works... once. And only if you hit the power button RIGHT AFTER you plug it in. Otherwise the standby light goes out after a few seconds and the TV is a paperweight.

    Using chassis as ground. Voltage at collector of QB801 is -50v to -122v and it's cyclical, (YES, negative and I'm lost at this one because I'm to understand there to be some 15v there) It drops to -80.4v and holds. Strandby light will come on shortly after for a brief time (5 seconds or so) it's at this point that you can again turn on the TV and it will operate normally. If you do not turn the TV on, the standby light will go out, the voltage will (decrease?) to ~-120v then repeat itself.

    Sidenote, I'm using a 50" Panasonic plasma I got for $60 with a bad SS board I repaired using your forums with little to no experience. I bought the TV gambling I could fix it. It was before shopjimmy had a kit and the guy had digikey part numbers he had researched and *thought* would work. I trusted him and bought the parts, since I live in the town they're based in. TV's been a computer monitor for 3 years now. Since then I've repaired probably 50 TV's and various electronics just due to people who were willing to help others with their knowledge. I am in your debt already. Thank you in advance for all your help!

    You are using the the wrong ground that is why you are getting wrong readings, you are working in the hot side of the circuit so the negative leg of the main filter cap is GND ref. for the hot side of the circuit.
    The key point right now is:
    Are you getting steady 5V standby Voltage to run the main board?

      Hi budm I've seen you around and I appreciate your help for sure. The answer is yes, I have 5v standby, but only for about 5 seconds or so after plugging it in. As far as I can tell all voltages are correct when the TV is on, and for a short time after you plug it in, then I lose voltage. That's why I'm so confused!

        OK, for 5VSTBY not to be stable it can be due to being over loaded by the main board, or the power supply circuit is weak due to such thing as bad startup/running caps.
        So disconnect the cable between the power supply board and the main board and then check the standby Voltage to see if it is steady or not first.
        We must have steady standby Voltage first.

          Steady 5.22v (spec 5.3), backlights fire just fine. Did this before to try to rule out the power board and came to the conclusion that the main board was probably good because it fires if I'm quick on the power button so I went back to the PSU thinking I messed something up... Have I been chasing my tail this whole time? What could go wrong with the main that the TV would still function but not stay in standby? No 5v return? I didn't check that but I thought that was only on when the TV was on.

              Are you confident to measure the voltage accross these caps? You can attach the negative probe to the heatsink in the hot side and with the red probe try to touch the positive leg (if you can) of these capacitors.
              These caps are connected to the lines which feed the main driver of the nearby transformer. They must have a steady 9-15V.

                They dont give the part numbers. We will have to do some research on a board we may have laying around.

                  This is what I bought and the power board seems to be working but just won't hold standby voltage. I'm comfortable testing anything senndogg, I'll be home in 15 minutes to give you the results

                    Those parts seem to be if the inverter circuit failed, with CNM802 unpluged from the main board, the power supply should turn on ie: 5 volts & 13 volts and the inverter/backlights should turn on also as there circuits have pullup resistors
                    5 volts standby should be constant
                    If those voltages are there and stay there, there could be excesive load on the main board for the switched +5 or +13 volts which would also load the +5 standby circuit
                    If the +13 volts drops there could be a fault on the power supply as that voltage does supply part of the inverter circuit
                    with main board disconnected short pin 1 (on/off) on cnm802 to chassis ground, the standby voltage should remain constant

                      Senndogg I've pulled these caps and put them in a tester and they're good at least.

                      With TV functioning properly -
                      cb804 0v
                      Cm804 17.6v

                      In failed standby -
                      Cb804 0v
                      Cm804 4.4

                        You said the backlight turns on fine when you disconnect the mainboard? So mainboard is pulling the voltage down?

                          If that voltage is dropping that means that sth is overloading the whole system. After some minutes of working tv can you check the mainboard for excessive heating components? The processor itself should not exceed 65'C.

                            He has no standby voltage when mainboard is connected. Disconnected the mainboard and the 5v is back.

                            My guess is bad bga solder on mainboard ( CPU ).

                            any history on the tv?

                                part numbers are on the components and on the bags each component comes in for my kit? I dont believe its the shop jimmy kit though... I can post the part numbers after work if you still need them?

                                  Hi guys, sorry to revive an old post but am having an issue where I do not have no voltages on the CNM802 connector with the cable disconnected from the main board. The 2 fuses are both working. The Tv just stop working. Any help will be appreciated.
                                  Thanks

                                        This is my first attempt at troubleshooting a board like this, I know I could just buy a new board but I'm curious to figure out how this works. I've been testing different components in the evenings this week and I think the problem is with the IC failing to start up for some reason. When the board is plugged in there is no standby voltage.

                                        Then today it randomly sprung to life like a zombie but shortly died thereafter. I have no idea why it would have done that and its the first time I've seen it running. I discharged capacitors on the board last night, then it was sitting today....

                                        Vizio D50u-D1 Dead Set No Standby
                                        by fharris1977
                                        Hi. I got a Vizio with no power or standby, and won't turn on with remote or button. I checked the voltages on the connector and all read 0.00V or nearly 0(0.050 ON/OFF pin). None of the pins are labeled STB for standby although I do see some 5V pins. Other than the obvious standby led, which isn't coming on, is there a way to check for standby voltage on this PS. I'm trying to see if my problem is the PS or mainboard. Some Vizios I have fixed with no standby led me to think it was the PS but it turned out being the mainboard. Any experience with this set would be greatly appreciated.

                                        Hi all.

                                        I started a thread while back regarding TV power supply standby circuitry as it is something I am not quite on top of.
                                        SMPS theory and function is becoming more familiar, however the standby part is still a bit of a mystery.

                                        Anyway, a friend has this TV with the above mentioned power supply board which has no standby voltage, nor any other voltages leaving the board.
                                        The mains AC comes in fine, gets filtered and rectified with power is on the main filter cap as well as the transformer and drain pins of the ICE3B0665J, but that's it.
                                        ...

                                        Hello,

                                        I am trying to re-purpose this power supply that I saved years ago from a tv with a cracked screen for a monitor but that is not really that relevent at the moment. I do not recall which tv but a google search looks like it is from Wharfedale LTF37K1.

                                        You may notice I made some alterations moving some components to the top and some wires which are from a 5v regulator I fitted to the 12v output as the monitor requires 5v. The standby was already at fault from the beginning, it has nothing to do with the alterations...

                                        Years ago it had some bulging caps...

                                        Yamaha TSX 120 Standby Problem
                                        by psssst
                                        Hello forum. I've recently been given a Yamaha TSX 120 DAB radio and ipod dock. Its working well however when put on standby its using 6.3 watts. The manual states less than 1 watt on standby. I measured this with a plug in monitor which seems accurate with other items. In use it uses around 7.5 watts. Firstly has anyone who owns a similar radio also got a plug in monitor to check if this is normal with this unit? In the first half a second the monitor shows 0.3 watts which I suspect is what it should use but something is switching it to be almost fully powered. I've searched the manual for eco...
