Same board, different problem

Hi everyone,
I just signed up for this board. 3 days ago my MAG 32in lcd tv distorted & the lcd shut off. The sound was still on. Now, when I turn it on, it shows the loading screen for a second (with a deeper black bar in the center) and shuts off. The sounds still plays. I am thinking it is a power issue. I have the same power board as this one (I believe this is the one this topic is about)
**broken link removed**
I would love to know what I need to do to get this up and running again. I can post pictures of the board if need be. I noticed a lot of cold solder as well as evidence of resoldering/work by hand previously. I would be greatly in your debt if any of you can help me. I am dying without TV!
 
Nope adsolutely no lick. i testing almost every component on there so i am thinking its an IC problem. I wish i could find a real technician who could troubleshoot at the component leve. where i am from on the islands i know a guy who would fix this in a day but now live in the US and it would be too much to send it back home to get fixed.. Any luck with yours.
 
No luck on this side either, i am not good at testing electronics, but if I can find the schematic for our board, I know a friend who can fix it.
I will keep you posted.
 
Does anyone know who stocks the FCPF18N60 mosfet used in the Polaroid 323B power supply? Digikey and Mouser list a 18N60 but don't stock them.
Thanks for your help.
 
Digikey doesn't stock every MOSFET; I've noticed they often leave out some of the lower currents or voltage ratings in a product line. For example, they don't stock 18N60 but they do stock 22N60, 26N60, and 30N60.

It would be extremely likely that 22N60 would work in place of the 18N60.
 
Techy-not. Could you supply contact info for polaroid parts deal. $122.00 sounds good to me.I have same problem with power supply . mine seems to have open primary on one of the transformers. Thanks for any info TvJoe.

Click to expand...

I'd like that contact info, too, please.

Tvjoe, if you're in Fort Myers, I'm dang close to you, if having access to my power supply would help you troubleshoot yours. Mine has no 5V on the standby pin, but other than replacing some caps, I haven't been able to troubleshoot why. Not sure how a known bad PS might help you, but if you want I'll be happy to let you borrow it.

I have a FLM-232B. Power supply is bad also (it is a 00 model, so it has the yellow/orange power supply and not the black one). I get the red LED to light when I plug it in (standby mode), then when I turn it on the LED turns blue ( On mode) but no picture.
I have 24V on CN3 pin 4,5 and 6. CN3 pin 7 is 0V in standby and 5V when it's on. I think this is all correct. The 24V is routed to the control board in standby and that is where the 5V comes from when you turn it on. When 5V is routed back to the power supply via CN3 pin 7, it should switch the other half/part of the power supply on and through CN2. That is how I think it is suppose to work.
My problem is that the other part of the power supply never turns on and I get no voltage on CN2. I'm not sure what that voltage should be.

Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance.
 
Flm-323b

Can someone point out the pins everyone is describing?
CN3 pin 4,5 and 6. CN3 pin 7

I have no Idea where they are on the board.
 
I've identified CN2 and CN3 on the picture. Pin 1 through 7 are from right to left. The Blue wire on CN3 should be 5 Volts when the tv is turned on from standby to ON. The LED on the front should also turn from red to blue if the standby part of the power supply is working. CN3 pins 5,6 and 7 should be 24 volts also. This is how mine works and then the 5 volts should allow 24 volts to go to CN2 (mine doesn't do this part).

I found out that mine has a bad transformer (I've circled in red). I cann't get the part and have to replace the whole power supply.

JD19 thanks for the pic and info. I replaced the power supply with one from discount merchant.com...still does not power on. no power on any of the cn pins. Could the main board be bad?
 
I rechecked the voltages on the top left plug and I have 24 volts on the 3 red wires. No 5 volts on the blue. I also have 24 volts on the connector going to the video board (main) no 5 volts out. This would lead me to believe the main board has a problem. Anyone know the fix? Surface mounted fuse? Any help would be appreciated.
 
Ok..I got a new(Free but used with a known bad ower supply, just had to pay the shipping) control box today. I just swapped out the power supply with the new one I got from Discount Merchant.com. Tv powers on now. Polaroid logo flashes and looks real good. Blue solid screen looks good. When I plug a source in the screen displays the picture in a tye-die looking effect. It doesnt matter which input I use. Haven't tried the HDMI. Could it be the T-conn board? small board on top behind the control box. Not sure as I get a perfect blue screen with noTye-die look. Everything I have read points to the t-conn board. Help !
 
jomede - It sounds like the problem could be in the A/D board or the input board. Did you check to make sure everything was connected in the new control box correctly? If I remember correctly, all the inputs go directly to the A/D board through pin/socket connection from the input board.

If your old A/D board is bad (no 5 volts going back to the Power supply) then swapping that back into the new control box would only give you the same problem (will not turn on). you can try that and confirm this.

If the problem is in the input/output board, you could try swapping from that from old one to the the new one. It is not that hard but you have to just about take the whole control board apart to do it. Let me know if you need help tying this.

BTW- do you still have your old power supply board. I could use some parts like one of those little yellow transformers! Can we make a deal of some sort?

Anybody have an old bad power supply I can get for parts for mine?
