    Vizio D40FG9 - No power/standby

    Hi,

    I'm working on Vizio D40F-G9 tv, there is no voltage present on the secondary side of SMPS. Fuse was blown out and found two diodes on the bridge were shorted. So I replaced it with bridge as I was not having replacement diodes. Then found the mosfet QB101 is shorted. Original mosfet was SW7N65 which I replaced with TK10P60W. Again it shorted and fuse blown. I could measure the continuity between legs of main caps with shorted mosfet so I removed mosfet. Then found the diodes marked in red (R12K J0) color are shorted, could this be an issue to make mosfet and whole circuit shorted? Or what else do I need to check?

      The diodes are not likely shorted, they are parallel to the 0.27Ω resistor. If the mosfet was shorted drain to gate, I suspect the gate drive circuit or driver ic UB101 is bad aswell

          Thanks RJ for quick reply, yes those are in parallel so looks like diodes not shorted. However mosfet is shorted on source to drain and not on drain to gate. Also what IC do you suspect?

              The driver ic, it's on the other side of the board. If at any time during the mosfet failing the +300vdc may have found its way to the gate and took out the ic. If the ic is damaged it might just turn the mosfet on hard so it just shorts again.
              Shopjimmy has 40 of them in stock. $37.95

                  Thanks, I have ordered one from ebay for $19, hope that will work. However I would like to repair this board as well. I could see the voltage is jumping on cap EB105 from 10v to 15V. It's connected to the Vcc of the driver IC. May be IC is trying to come on but failing as it's damaged. I could see IC labelled as RIP 37T, couldn't find anything on internet. Any replacement or alternate for the same?

                      One thing I want to understand, as it looks weird to me is continuity exists between -ve of main cap and source of mosfet as well as there is continuity between +ve of main cap and drain of mosfet. Is this expected? Doesn't it become a short when mosfet starts working?

                          The negative lead of the main capacitor is connected to HOT ground. The source of the mosfet will be connected to hot ground via 0.27Ω resistor, The positive lead of the main capacitor will be connected to one end of the primary winding of the transformer, the other end will connect to the mosfet drain. The transformer DC resistance will be very low so it will seem like the cap positive has a short to the fet drain.
                          If the mosfet is just turned ON, this will cause excess current in the primary blowing the fuse.
                          Under normal operation, the mosfet switches at around 60kHz, this is how the supply operates.
                          Here is a similar power supply primary circuit

                              Thanks for the explanation, I got it now how it should work. Also I don't see pfc section in this board, so does that mean main caps will never have voltage around 360V on it? Or am I missing anything?

                                  The main cap is only rated at 250vdc so the answer is no there is likely no pfc and the voltage should be around 160v on the cap.

                                      by Nooy
                                      Hello everyone, I recently found this badcaps site and super Learn Electronics Repair youtube channel. And I wanted to learn how to troubleshoot power supplies and VGA cards and how to practice soldering, since I already have a properly defective piece of them. I am currently trying to solve two problems:

                                      I have a Gigabyte GV-RX460WF2OC-4GD type card. I managed to find the faulty MOSfet (AON6414A) on it, which I replaced. The card starts up, but after about half a minute, the MOSfet in the same position will be shorted again. Is it possible that the PWM controller driving the MOSfet...

                                      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.

                                      Alienware M18x Shorted CPU Mosfet

                                      I've got an old Alienware M18x R1 which shorted out the charger whenever it was connected. Tracked down the short to two shorted caps and burned CPU power controller caused by a shorted mosfet on the CPU's graphic power supply.

                                      I've replaced the faulty mosfet, two shorted caps and the CPU Power controller (NCP6151S52MNR2G).

                                      Issue is now whilst there is no short if I attempt to power the system on the fans spin for a couple seconds there are no lights and no further action - the PCH is heating up but there is no CPU power coming out but there is an enable signal...

                                      iMac 2017 PSU - shorted PFC mosfet
                                      by mat2k
                                      I am trying to fix an iMac 2017 PSU, initially came with a blown fuse and shorted PFC MOSFET (6R199P). After visual inspection and some measurements I replaced the FET with a P20NM60 and tested with 100w series lamp, and it lasted 1 second before going into dead short. The PFC controller chip (NCP1605BG) and its passives appear fine (passives measure OK), but I do not know if there is a simple way of testing the NCP1605 as I wouldn't like to blind-replace it.
                                      There was some slight blackening of the solder on the PFC controller passives so I reflowed them all with some flux. I am waiting...

                                      MSI GTX-980ti shorted MOSFET on memory rail
                                      by daemon123
                                      Hi All,
                                      I have this MSI GTX-980ti Gaming Golden Edition. It had shorted mosfet on memory. Replaced the shorted i.e. Q47 PK616BA with 4C09N and the card ran fine for a month. Then suddenly again the same problem. This time when i replace it 4C09N or with replacement PK616BA (Aliexpress) it gets shorted. As soon as turn on the PC the PSU shuts down and the same mosfet Q47 gets short.
                                      What should be the next step. Kindly guide.
                                      The board view files for this gpu is available and attached. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?p=1237952...
