Sony KDL40SL140 TV no 3.3V standby power?
Fuse at power supply input is OK. AC is present at first stages of ps
circuit but can't find any DC. I have the schematic but there are no test point voltages shown on schematic except at standby output connector. No voltage present at any pins at the ps output connector. I presume the ps is the problem but wanted to ask here if it could be anything else before buying another power supply. -- toro |

See if it comes up with no load. By the way, sometimes you can get the boards cheaper from second sources, like ShopJimmy or Tri-State Module. Mark Z |

Mark,
Thanks for the good advice, you were correct, something is pulling down the standby power. I unplugged the connector for the wiring leading from the ps board to the tuner board and with the connector off there is 3.3 V standby power on the ps board pins. So maybe the problem is on the tuner board and not the ps. I think this may have been caused by a nearby lightning strike about two days ago. There is no visible damage to the tuner but it probably got tested in that storm. I usually unplug the antenna when there is lightning but neglected to do it this time.

Seem to be plenty of power supplies around for this model TV for $50 up but the BM5 tuner (main) board is much more expensive, plus there are few (if any) available. The BM5 board must be first to die from lightning strikes. Looks like there may be people who repair these boards for around $200 but this model TV is only worth $200 in good condition. Probably not worth pursuing further. |
