Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
That definitely sounds like too much noise.

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Well, took the diode on the +5v rail out cause it seemed like it was testing odd. It passes diode check, but fails resistance check. Both directions conduct. Dual diode, common K Part B-2306 Schottky
Took out a cap after the diode, no problems there. Maybe it will work if I replace the diode.Last edited by el3ctroded; 06-09-2010, 06:51 PM.Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Strange. There's no regulator IC after the transformer and diode, just a filter formed by an inductor and bunch of caps.
Thought I might have had a diode in the parts boxes... no such luck. Guess I have to wait on Mouser.Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Well, I thought: The hell with it. A good PSU is only $100 on ebay. So I bought it. Same damn problem! PSU doesn't kick on unless the switch is in auto mode, where it shouldn't be.
ARGGG! So where am I at now? Logic board fault?Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Nope, missed a connector! Screen is working properly!
$220 for a fixed screen. I noticed the Ysus board gets really hot, so I've added an exhaust fan above it. Hopefully it will last longer with the extra cooling.
So I also got a 42" Poloroid LCD for myself that didn't work. Fixed it too with a new PSU! Got myself a new TV LOL. I'm on a roll!Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Glad you got it working! Nice score on the Polaroid too - what was you final cost investment to get it working?
I had a bit of luck too today - just ordered an allegedly working power supply for my Plasma for a total cost of $61. I'll keep you posted when I receive it.Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
Well - the jerk on eBay refunded my money for the power supply saying that it is "no longer available". I checked his feedback and found out that he has done this to other buyers in the past.Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
I have had that happen to me a couple of times. A bidder puts a $100 item on ebay for 99 cents starting price, but only attracts one bid (mine) and then claims item is no longer available.
Of course, I watch this seller and sure enough 2 weeks later the exact same item comes up for bid BUT with a reserve price.
I have lucked out on many items (high value) where I'm the only bid and I get it for 99 cents.

The power supply was just listed today - 30 day listing - $49 buy it now or best offer plus $12 shipping. I grabbed it for the $49 - did not want to have someone grab it out from under me, so I gave him his price and paid immediately. It's not like he canceled all the bids and ended the auction - i have had that happen too - he pulled this stunt with a completed auction. He must have realized that it was worth more, and pulled the old "no longer available" game - I do not believe him because it was a new listing - it might be a valid point if the listing was old. I am going to watch to see if he re-lists it.
I also have had people do this on Craigslist - we make a deal for their asking price, then they call me and say that they got a higher offer - I tell them that this is not eBay, and I am not going to start bidding on their item.Comment

Re: Maxent MX-42HPM20 Won't turn on
LOL @ crtfool and the craigslist thing... That's pretty good.
I got the Poloroid and it's PSU for a total of $160!
Just picked up a Dynex 32" LCD today for $16! I had to drive 4hrs round trip to pick it up (about $30 in gas), but once home I had it fixed within 10 minutes! It had a bad solder joint on PSU that caused an SMT diode to fry and I had a new one in the parts cabinet that was "close enough" till I make another Mouser order. Got a nice bedroom screen now

Sounds like you have experience with a problem I am having with my Maxent. I have sound but no picture, may I ask your advice?Comment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?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, HP laptop model 15-EU0005NA. It does not turn on, 1 in 100 manages to turn it on then after a while it freezes/disappears/flashes, etc.
After removing the motherboard and connecting the board with RAM to the power supply, I noticed that at first all voltages start correctly and after a few seconds 3.3V on the PL4501 coil disappears and somewhere in this area something starts beeping on the board, sometimes after touching it with a finger in the area of PL4551 it stops beeping and 3.3V appears again.

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... -
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.

TV Model - LG OLED77G1PUA
Got the same exact TCON board from TVPartsToday and replaced it. But didnt transfer the EPPROM data (didnt... -
Hi,
I have this board, where I have exchanged the LGA1151 socket. During testing I discovered, that the large PCIEX16 slot won't by no force work in x16 mode, but keeps to work in x8 mode only.
I tested this with GPU-Z, also with Render Test (but tried also Furmark and Heaven Benchmark - no effect).
Tested on Core i5-9600K as well as on an Pentium G5420 and MSI NVIDIA GTX1070 and 2 other cards, including RTX3060Ti.
Board architecture definitely allows x16 mode, as all 16 PCIe lanes are present between CPU and main GPU slot (nearest to CPU).
