  • Re: Sony KD-75XE9005 - all lights off

    OK, the firmware update was tiresome but after a couple reboots it came up just fine.
    I had to leave the WIFI module unpluged as it was short circuiting something on the mainboard. But I do not use the Smart TV functions anyway.

    a $10 part causing a couple hundred $$ unneccessary self made repair.
    I believe a professional service would have not figured this one out either...
    At least that is what I tell myself ;-D

    Thanks for your thoughts and support!
    I will certainly be back with some issues...

    Update towards the NEW MAINBOARD:
    flashed current software on mainboard.
    Now backlight panel is lit but no information on LCD panel shows up.
    No startscreen. Only after the time booting takes I get this weird Sony Service Sound (chill out music stream), nothing else.
    The Sony Sound is also shown in a couple videos.

    If I plug in the WIFI board the whole TV shuts down immediately with the "all black" symptoms from before.

    I will try to order new flat ribbon cables even though it is weird...

    OK, i tried to go through the details.
    I disassembled all and but it together on my desk then the mainboard would start (S/PDIF-Toslink lit and powerboard clicks).
    So I figured something is shorting somewhere on the panel.

    I plugged every device together piece by piece.

    Only when I connect the
    Sony Wifi board J20H088
    the mainboard will stop starting and it all goes dark.
    Which is completely weird because I can not see any power modulating features on this Wifi board......

    The thing is, I have all boards in duplicate. The mainboard was freshly supplied by Sony itself. I will ask the supplier for advice. But it is hard for me to proof it is faulty.
    Thanks for your support....

    That is easier said then done.
    I ordered new boards because I lack the knowledge and time to go through the boards wiring.
    I added the detail pictures.
    220V appears fine. fuses are all good.
    stand-by power output is supposed to be 3,3V.
    I measure 3,5V when the mainboard is not connected.
    After connection, the measured voltage drops to pretty much 0
    I have no idea why that is.

    I added the details in red on the two connected boards.

    Thanks for your support....

  • Sony KD-75XE9005 - all lights off

    It started all with random restarts or the TV being on in the morning and ended with a sudden fail. The stand-by light is dark since then.

    Since then, means the replacement of both power boards
    - APDP-293B1
    - APDP-158A1
    and the motherboard
    BMKS 1-982-022-31

    Still no use. So it is obvious I must have overlooked a single simple fail that probably would not cost as much as I already spent.
    I believe the TV should start even though the back is open?
    I was wondering if the TCON could be dead. But because everything is completely...
