Re: Anyone here repair LCD tv power supplies?

thanks for the replies, would love to get a scope and learn my way around these boards, until then, I guess I should seek replacements. I can deal with visual diagnosis and capacitor replacements etc but one of these appears fine visually

I have 2 suspect power supplies from LCD tv. One is a Vestel unit, the other from an LG 32", I dont have model numbers to hand. Is there anyone in the business of fault finding/repairing or is it uneconomical and better to replace them?

I have just successfully carried out a cap replacement on a 32" lcd tv. It was branded as UMC X32, and appears to power up just fine. My problem is the multitude of connections as this model has a built in DVD player. There is some scope for error as some connectors will fit in more than 1 socket on the video board. The board number is B.LT918C, can anyone guide me to where the various plugs go? in particular the LED & IR board which will fit 3 of the board sockets. As soon as I can plug everything together it should be good to go.

Thanks in advance
