TV Power Supply Repairing Tips

By Ryan Sullivan


Certain reasons may drive you to repair your television. This includes your device powering itself off or taking a long time to get reception when you turn it on. The good thing is that such problems can be resolved by repairing the TV power supply. The process is not very hard when you have proper guidelines.

You will need different tools to help you realize the task easily and quickly. Check if a capacitor, screwdriver, soldering iron, solder sucker, and solder are in your toolbox. If you do not have one, go to an electronics store to buy what you do not have. Use them to open the device and determine what is causing the issue. In most cases, the capacitors are the fault, and if they have leaked, the screen will not be powered.

Once the television has been unplugged from its power source, ensure you place it on a flat area with the screen facing down to prevent any damages. You can then detach all screws that have attached the back panel with a screwdriver. After all of them have been removed, you can detach the back panel by wiggling it a little bit since it is not secured with bolts and then keep it aside.

Check where the circuit board is by keenly following its connection to the power cord. You should then loosen the bolts and connectors attached on the board with the help of a screwdriver. You ought to take note on their connection so that you correctly reattach them. Take pictures of the connection to help you during reattachment to prevent you from forgetting. Once the connectors and bolts are loosened, disconnect the circuit board.

Locate the faulty capacitors. They are cylinder-shaped and vary in width and height. Most of them appear normal and therefore look for ones with a brown-yellow liquid coming from the top, or it has bulged at the top. This is an indication that the capacitors have overheated and are the cause of the fault. Remove them ensuring that you do not damage copper pads.

After you have removed all of them, you will have to replace them. Ensure you keep track of the negative and positive polarity as you replace them. Use your soldering iron by marking the negative lead on the board. The negative side has a gray stripe. The capacitors should be installed correctly as they are polarity sensitive. The board is clearly marked helping you to insert them correctly.

Once you have done the replacement, the device should be reassembled, and then the power checked. After the connectors have been interchanged and the bolts and back panel reattached, determine if the fault has been rectified. A power surge will definitely cause the fuse to blow. If you notice that the problem has not been fixed, consider checking its fuse. Ensure that you replace it with an appropriate one.

If none of these solves the problem, your last option is to replace the main circuit board of the device. This is because if it is damaged, the television would not work correctly. Before doing this, you should have guidance on how it should be replaced so that you do not cause further damage to the device.
