    Re: 55EC930V Help please

    There is no need to take the relay apart. also if there was a load in the circuits that are supplied by F101 and F102 the relay would turn on and the fuses would blow.
    I believe he is measuring 120vac from chassis ground to the fuse, that is why he is measuring 120vac

      Ok, Firstly, thank you both for your help


      @R_J
      My initial voltages were erroneous vs chassis - the correct voltages are 331 vs C621 (-ve)

      I measured the following voltages vs J50 with no jumper then with jumper P1 (verified by coloured wire and triangle on the board) to P3 the next pin up.

      C507 17.0 0-2V
      C503 16.5 6.6-6.7
      C504 15.3 13.6-14

      I don't have the experience to tell which cap is bad (no schematic) but I'm guessing its C507?

        You are getting close to solving this problem.

        The voltage on C507 should not drop to 0 when the power supply is turned on, I suspect you could have a short on Q501 emitter to hot ground. (The transistor will be ok)
        Check that ZD502 is not shorted.
        Check the resistance across the relay coil, There is a small diode and a capacitor across the coil also. The coil, diode or small cap could be shorted.

        When Q501 is turned on by the opto, it must be switching the 17 volts to hot ground. This also reduces the feedback feedback voltage in the standby circuit and that is why the standby 3.3 volts also drops.
        The voltage should be about 12v on Q501 emitter to turn on the relay, the voltage is not there son no relay click and without the relay turning ON, you will not have any of the other power supply voltages.

          Thanks R_J - I see where we are going with this.

          OK - ZD502 is not shorted.
          Coil resistance 49.7 ohms - neither the diode or cap shorted (i.e. resistance across each consistent at 49.7).

          I checked the Q501 voltages with the jumper in and out - 17V collector and Zero B/E - no Jumper. With Jumper 2V Collector and 500mV B/E so its turning on a little but not enough.

          I checked further down the chain C509 has a resistance of only 5 Ohms. I'm going to replace it and see what happens

            Well either the voltage at the collector can't supply enough current to turn on the relay, or something is drawing too much current. Check R501 and R502, they could have changed value?
            Even if the base voltage is not high enough, the voltage on the collector should not drop.
            This transistor acts like a switch but also as a regulator that supplies the voltage to the relay but also supplies the VCC for the pfc ic. The zener diode on its base sets the regulators output voltage, likely 12v.

              Re: 55EC930V Help please

              C509 replaced - CLICK!

              Now to start checking voltages...

              With only Pins 1 and 3 jumpered, 12V and 24 V present on correct pins of P102 - working through the rest of the troubleshooting guide - will update

                Ok, so C509 was measuring 5Ω out of circuit? Check Q501 emitter voltage.

                  good job R_J

                  OP .. you need to discharge the PSU before plug the MB back and T-CON after you are sure 12 24 v. stable

                    Re: 55EC930V Help please

                    Good job guys. Now we are getting closer to the original problem.

                    I can't check the 24V power delivery since I don't have a bulb!

                    So I have connected the T-CON and also the main board and applied power. The relay clicks on and after 10 seconds or so, clicks off.
                    If I disconnect the main board and replace the jumpers and apply power, the relay clicks on and stays on. The screen is mostly black with broken white horizontal lines the full width of the screen in a band that is about 1/4 up from the bottom and 1/4 screen height wide. I believe this to be the original symptom (although the description given did not give me confidence.

                      Do you have your +12v and +24 volts on P201? Does the +24v come up on P202, I suspect the power supply is now fixed and you have other problems on one of the other boards.

                        bulb test he refer to screen T-CON test...

                        never do the jumpers test again keep it connected to MB and T-CON

                        you may have the second click off goes to stand by.. so turn it on again by power on TV set or with RC

                          OK - With T-Con and main board connected, it clicks on and then off after 3 seconds. Switching on at the power button has the same result. The voltages, however stabilise at 12 and 24V and P201 and P202 while its on.

                            disconnect the LVDS cable from MB side and then turn on.. will stay on ?

                              Check P201 again, see if pwr-on and drv-on have correct voltage and if they change state after power on.

                                I see the lightbulb test is to provide a load to the +24v and eliminate the chance of the t-con or panel shutting the tv down. If you don't have the bulb to place across the +24v I don't know how else you can eliminate the t-con/panel

                                  Sorry for my absence guys - Had to go away for 2 weeks last night. Will hopefully conclude this epic after the 26th! Thanks for all your help - P.S. I'll get a bulb by then

                                    I started again. Doing test 1, P2300 voltages are good apart from Pin 4 which is zero volts. I see no mention of the significance of pin 4 in the SMPS PDF so I thought I'd ask for guidance please

                                        i think i see a standby microcontroller , maybe the memory polluted, are you familiar with programming of theese chips? have you got a programmer?

                                          I have some programmers. Depends on what processor.

I switched 2 relays on that board and the temperature was the same (on the same position), so I'm sure it's not a faulty relay. I measured voltage on that relay and it was 9.5V DC, so that looks good. I don't see any other relay on that board having that kind of temperature and they have 9V on them too.
                                            I thought maybe the transistor that is switching this relay keeps switching on/off, so I also checked for AC and there was almost none: 0.3V using mV range. No steady frequency was shown, but...

                                            Hi everyone!
                                            I have this board that suddenly stopped supplying power to an output that drives an interchanger cleaner motor.
                                            I checked while the board was in place with all wires attached and there's no AC voltage on the corresponding plug X5
                                            This X5 is driven by fuse F8 (tested OK) which comes from the second orange relay
                                            To make sure there are no charcoaled contacts inside the relay, I got a 24VDC power supply and got it ready to manually power up the coil side of these relays.
                                            I respected the polarity, positive to cathode of protecting diode
                                            So provided all...

                                            by sam_sam_sam
                                            I was working on this CNC machine today found no keyboard functioning no control relay powering on
                                            The screen powered on and was giving an operation error but the manual was not very clear about what the error exactly was but with a little bit of troubleshooting and finding out that the control relays not powering on and no keyboard functions we narrowed down to this one switching power supply which of course does not have any indicator LED light they are on the keyboard interface/relay controller board

                                            Found shorted diodes on main controller relays there are 3 of them that...

                                            Howdy,
                                            I have gone through the forums and tried a bunch of things that others had posted. I am hoping some one can point me into the right direction.

                                            Original symptoms.
                                            press the power button you can hear the relay click.
                                            The LG logo illuminates white for a moment then fades out.

                                            Behind the back cover.
                                            when Power button is pressed the red LED on the Main/Media board stays illuminated.
                                            You can not turn the tv off with the power button. when using IR remote You hear the relay click OFF and the Red LED is no longer lit.
                                            ...

                                            Samsung LN46b530p7f – relay clicks and backlight cycling, sound OK
                                            by momaka
                                            I got this TV a little over a year ago from a coworker from my previous job. It’s a Samsung 46” TV, model number LN46b530p7f.

                                            Problem:
                                            Backlight cycles On and Off.
                                            Basically, when the TV is turned On, there is a relay click heard from the TV PS board. The relay cycles On and Off 4 times in about 2-3 second intervals. Each of those 4 times, the backlights also cycle On and Off with the relay. The screen TFT isn’t cracked/damaged and appears to work - I can see a “no signal” image when the backlights turn On briefly – though the image is a bit dull/dark....
