  • Re: Sharp Aquos LC-60LE650U No Backlight 2 long 5 short







    Thanks for everyone's help. The TV is up and running. Time will tell, but I have 9 extra parts if it happens again.

    I know for a fact that the TV was enclosed in a wood bezel with no ventilation in a conference room and I wonder if that may have been part of the problem.

    Thanks, again!

    budm, you were dead on with the part. The heat sink was slightly more annoying than I thought it would be, but it is out and that was the correct part number. I've ordered 10 ($0.88 each) of them and I'll update once I have installed.

    Thanks, everyone!

    Thank you for the link! I searched google so much for different part numbers, I didn't even think to search the forums. My bad.



    Indeed. I usually order parts in 5s and 10s.



    Pin 2 definitely is only supplying 7.34V, which it should be supplying 12V according to the board. I'll be pulling the heat sink and Q7120 tomorrow. I need to get a new wick. Once that is done, I should be able to verify.

    Thank you, all!

    Have a great...

    Pin 3 seems to be ground (-00.2V). It breaks out to the screw on the corner of the board and down the center of the board to other grounds. Pin 4 (2.709V) is not so easy to trace. It seems to be heading to PD-16 (PNL-POW).

    Thanks!

    P.S. I just realized I have been saying PO when it should be PD for all of the pins above....

    Ok, I have attached two pictures that show what I believe to be the faulty voltage regulator. Is that what you were referring to with the q7120?

    Is this an equivalent? [URL="http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Fairchild-Semiconductor/KA78R12CTU/?qs=ImUAniFuiZTjLYoMLQi2Ug%3D%3D&gclid=CjwKEAjwlpbIBRCx4eT8l9W26igSJAAuQ_HGt4jux6pqoRIEZwyd1hssq9iHI9hj_dmc-DZpJi5pwhoCUz7w_wcB"]Mouser Voltage Regulator[/URL]

    As an aside, I definitely do not know all of the terminology. I believe "isolate" has a specific definition in circuits that I may have just misused. Please forgive any misuse of terminology and just be blunt and let me know I'm saying something wrong.

    I have done a lot of capacitor testing and replacements, to repair computer motherboards, dryers, HVAC, etc. I am learning how to troubleshoot bigger issues than a simple blown cap. However, I am definitely a hobbyist that is learning a new field....

    Yes. I traced the 7.3v to under the heatsink, but didn't have a small enough clip to isolate only one pin of the four. And yes, the 13.2 was on the same 4 pin...actually, I don't know what it is called. But it has 4 pins and is connected to the heatsink.

    I'll try to isolate each pin's voltage when I get home.

    Thank you for the guidance!

    There are 4 pins (PO-1,2 and PO-3,4) that go directly to the tcon. According to the board, PO-1,2 are supposed to be PNL12V. Everything I'm reading about this board says it should be 12v, but I can't trace back far enough to find the 12v on the board. I can find the 13.2 in various places and obviously the 5v, but not 12v.

    I have tested at the power board, and the tcon. Both provide 7.34v.

    One of my problems being my multimeter was not meant for connectors this small and I may...

    I also tested the voltage on the LED power. They were 1 - 83v.4, 2 - 86.0v, 3 - 85.0v, 4 - 83.4v (I measured with the connector disconnected at the positive pin (L1-1, L1-5, L1-9, L1-13) and at the capacitors. I don't know if this is useful as the Main Board is not kicking on the LEDs, but I thought I would add the information.

    I disconnected each of the two ribbon cables one at a time and tested voltage. It stayed steady at 7.34v on each disconnect. When I disconnected all connectors to the entire tcon it went to 7.35v. Disconnecting the LED power changed nothing, as expected (just extra caution).

    Thanks!

  • Sharp Aquos LC-60LE650U No Backlight 2 long 5 short

    Hello,

    I have been reading through a thread about another sharp that lead me to test quite a few different voltage outputs. I am reading 7.34 Volts from PO-1 and PO-2 (PNL12V). I just want to make sure I'm not crazy and that a bad power supply is probably what I'm dealing with.

    I'm asking because I was a little surprised how steady at 7.34v DC the reading was for both PO-1 and PO-2. If anyone knows the specific diode, capacitor, etc, that could be causing this, I would much prefer to replace those rather than purchase a new power supply.

    Also, I am...

    Hello!

    My name is Benjamin. I work as an IT consultant, but have been working with electronics for a long time. I have recently started learning about LED TV repair and have been reading this forum extensively for troubleshooting steps.

    I look forward to talking more soon!
