    Philips QFU2.1 Substitute

    Hi Folks.

    So I still have my stupid Philips TV sitting around. Is there any other mainboard from another model that would work in qfu2.1ela chassis? There are absolutely no boards available and replacements would fail after some time. And if you are lucky to find a "supposed to be working" board they will trade like collectibles. Overshooting the actual value of the TV. What a piece of sh*t that tv is.

    It is a 47PDL6907K/12 to be exact.
    It doesn't have to be pretty since it would be for personal use. It will go straight to the dumpster after smashing it with a hammer if there is no substitute board. I'm sick of this thing.

    What's wrong with it?
    Do you get a layer-1 code blinking on the power-LED after a few minutes?
    Have you shorted SDM to get a layer-2 code as well (it still takes minutes for it to appear)?

    Here is a link to your service manual:

      The board had the typical 53 code in SDM mode. Serial port was dead, no output.
      The board has ripped pads under the main bga due to thermal expansion. There was a gigantic thermal pad underneath the board where the cpu sits which bent the board and ripped some pads off the cpu. Non repairable.

        Bad design and a philips, as much as I like saving things from the landfill, I'd toss it.

          True. I saved it from the dumpster in hopes to fix it but that won't happen I guess. Too bad Philips patented their Ambilight. It is really beautiful. And the design of this tv is really appealing. The whole front is covered in thick glass without any plastic.

          But that won't change the truth about their bad design/planned obsolescence.
          Maybe I'll part it out and sell components from it.

            Unless maybe you can find a another board and put a big ceramic heatsink on the bga or a fan solution to keep it cool and stop the overheating.

              That is exactly what I planned to do but there's a catch. Working boards are really rare. I couldn't find a single board or tv with broken panel. And if you are lucky to find one the seller demands up to 250€ for it. The tv is close to 8 years old. Not worth it.

                Philips used LCD Panel which could be used at several Brand. this why Philips produce TVs with standard Model size such 40,43,47,etc. post all sticker on yours Panel let find other brand used the same panel--- so you start (do it your self ) other brand TV. by the way the PWB & T-Con could be remain in use.

                  Hi Diah
                  We were talking before about the mainboard swap, do you remember? Well the seller tried to scam me so I'm out of options now.

                  Anyways.. I know that the panels are more or less universal and I think it was an LG one. I'll post photos of all stickers.

                  I don't care if the TV ends up with a Sony or LG board. It just has to work.
                  Only sad thing is that I will loose Ambilight. But oh well.. Couldn't care less.

                  Thank you so much for your help!
                  Stickers are attached.
                  As you can see it already collected a ton of dust

                    well from the 2 T-Con socket and the specification of your Original TV its sound to me Toshiba TL series, not sure if they have 47 or just 46 , but sure there are 55 and 40.. (TL868 they used with it 3 brand Panel A C K. ) . ( Vestel can share too .. but need more inspect to know which model support 3D) MB. also the LG LA 47 series had same socket... i will update here when i found more.

                        i found one working Main boards belong to Toshiba TL868 with IR LED section.., it function only when the PWB support the following
                        Standby 5 V.
                        12 V for sub system
                        24V for sound section
                        24V for LNB section.

                        out put pins from MB as standard
                        Power ON
                        AC_detect
                        BL_ON
                        -----------------
                        you need to report yours PWB Volts reading or the label of volts listed on it to be sure the fun can be start to test.

                          I'll attach the service manual for my psu.


                          Do you want me to power the psu and measure all rails?
                          Is there any other way to contact you? I see you're also from Germany

                              by Tynan Dill
                              I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                              Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                              I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                              The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                              With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                              Hello partners.

                              Could someone tell me how to make this Philips TV source work without the mainboard being connected? The model of the board is EAX65423701 (2.1) and the model of the Philips TV is 40PFH40009/88.
                              The TV is dead, there is no standby light, however there is a voltage of 12v on the pins ( included 12v VAU ) and 3.2v on the PS-ON pin (see photo) when the power board is connected to the main board. If I disconnect both boards I only get 8 volts on 12v pins. I would like to rule out a fault in the main board by making it work, but so far no one has been able to tell...

                              Hi!
                              Got an 70 inch Philips tv model 70pus7855/12 from scraps and I decidet to give it a go. I'm an enthusiast but no porfessional in the electronics.
                              Found some advices watching youtube nad came up with this:
                              It came with no picture, after diagnosing it I found out that the right side of the T.con board was faulty.
                              I taped down the clock signals and I got a picture but the left side of the panel has less pronounced colours. Only the right 3rd side of the panel has good colors.
                              See attached picture.

                              Hi There,

                              This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.

                              After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

                              More Details

                              TV Model - LG OLED77G1PUA
