    Sony XBR-65X900e No Picture

    I have a Sony Bravia XBR-65X900e that I am trying to fix for a co-worker; manufactured January 2018. It does nothing at all (no picture), so I will try to explain what I have. I will try to start with the power board and upload pics as I go. My ultimate goal is to figure out which board needs replaced, but also improve my troubleshooting at component level. I did just buy the Kent Liew PDFs and will be using them to try to learn from.

    The board Part Numbers: (Will attach pics soon)

    Power Board: A2167843A
    Main Board: A2170473A 1-982-022-21
    Led Driver Board: A2166064B

    This has a separate power supply that supplies 24Vdc. I do have 24Vdc on the power supply main fuse, as well as on the inverter board at various locations, and I also have 24Vdc on several places on the main board. Several of these locations I measured on the fuses and and several other measurements were on components. The T-Con board did not have any voltage going to the fuse (0V), and I checked the continuity of the T-Con wires back to the first power board. All of the fuses on all boards tested good, none were open.

    I will attach pics of that board to start and see if anyone can help me with a few of the components, and possibly help me figure out what they are and how to check them.

    Power Board Part # A2167843A ; 1-982-024-11

    Fuse F9000 tested Good
    Fuse F9001 tested Good

    MLCC Caps tested 100k ohms +

    Chips I am trying to figure out:

    Q9002
    I assume P is the manufacture: 4485 is on the first line/GA721 is on the next
    (What looked like a P, I believe is AO brand an A circled by an O (alpha and omega) 4485 / GA721A

    Q9001 TPC8129 / 736

    IC9000 ACTN / 7L12

    There are also a few parts:

    One labelled NB (Transistor?); A1 (Diode?)

    Appreciate any guidance on this, or any questions... I will post more as I get time.

    Thanks,

      After some research considering if NB is part # CFY35-23 10GHz GaAsfet

      Part labelled 31: possibly MMBD1492 surface mount silicon switching diode

      TPC8129 MOSFET Silicon p-channel

          If the TV doesn't turn on and has no standby light, you need to determine if the main board is getting standby voltage and if it is stable. If present, the main board is suspect and not the power supply. Sonys will flash diagnostic blink codes so if it turns on and then flashes, you need to count the number of blinks.

            It has been a while so I don't remeber 100% correctly but once I had a problem with that power board. Do you get any voltage on these pins I marked with red? If memory serves me correct here should be 12V, but take that with grain of salt because I could be wrong...

              Ya, I don’t have any other voltages on the TV - just 24V. I couldn’t find anything telling me where I should have a standby but my initial thought was I had an issue with the main board, but after checking the T-con power should be coming from the TPC8129 chip on the power board, I started to think I had a bad power board.

              The pins circled in red (TPC8129)go to the top 4 wires on the connector which go to the T-Con.

                Re: Sony XBR-65X900e No Picture

                Update: I installed a new main board from tvparts today and the tv was working well, and I didn't have to update the firmware. However, after returning the tv to the owner, after an hour or two the tv will occasionally go to a blurry screen. I contacted tvparts today and am in the process of getting a replacement, but would anyone have any indication on causes of a screen to get a blurry picture?

                I attached a pic of the screen after installing a new board and a pic of the screen after it gets blurry after an hour or so. It will clear up after doing a reset and holding the power button 10 seconds but still a pain to have to continually reset the tv.

                  Two easy things to try, factory reset and firmware update/pair.

                    Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                    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.

                    Assuming...

                    Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
                    Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

                    Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
                    by jb_Bak
                    Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

                    Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
                    Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
                    CN6401
                    Pin 01 NC
                    Pin 02 NC
                    Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
                    Pin 04 "N/C"
                    Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
                    Pin 06 "GND": N/C
                    Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

                    Sony KDL-40Z4500 LCD with stripes and 9 blinks (possible BGC board or harness problem
                    by huj3r
                    Hi there!

                    I have a Sony Bravia KDL-40Z4500 which shows a colored vertical stripes pattern when turning on, with a central black shadow that slowly dissipates within the first 10 seconds.

                    Photo of the situation after the black shadow dissipates:

                    After this behavior the red LED will blink 9 times, then pause for a bit, and blink again 9 times, in a loop.

                    I checked the manual (available here) and this corresponds to "HFR error", quoting from the manual:

                    > This indicates HFR Communication error. [ HFR Communication...

                    Hello, Last week I bought the 50" Sony X80j tv everything was working fine, untill I plugged the tv in a ups power supply 650va the tv remote control became unresponsive and the TV became laggy after a while the picture quality isn't the same as before the tv seems less brighter and the picture is somehow blurry, people's faces don't look as natural as before, there is a mini orange-pink tint to the edge of people's faces especially in NETFLIX Dolby Vision like in One Piece ep1 Alvida skin tone, my intention was to protect the tv but something went wrong I checked the ups with a multimeter,...
