BUSH LCD27TV022HD
ThomasPSmith:
This is my first posting on this forum from a newbie so please be patient.......
My son has a BUSH LCD27TV0022HD. He was watching it when the screen suddenly went off as if in stand by.
Enquiries on the internet revealed that this problem is well known and is associated with a failure of the power supply unit inside the TV. I have examined the TV and the said PSU is number type 17PW15 - 8 and the mainboard is 17MB11 - 6.
The serial number of the TV is 5915039 600450.
I have purchased a replacement and the replacement is an upgrade serial number 17PW20 V2. I have fitted this and connected it up following the instructions as closely as possible. I cannot follow the instructions exactly because the main board on my TV is 17MB11 - 6 and the mainboards mentioned in the instructions are 17MB11 - 5, 17MB11 - 7 not 17MB11 - 6. They all have slightly different connection points.
After studying my new PSU and Mainboard, there is actually only one way to connect the additional wire in the kit whilst following the instructions. So I think that I have connected the new PSU up properly. The instructions are very clear in that the new PSU is a updated direct replacement of the original with the addition of a slight change in wiring.
As you may have already guessed I am not a TV engineer but am quite technically minded.
The possibilities are of course that I have not connected this up properly (but it does power up but just in the same way as it was when it was faulty. It is possible but unlikely that the new power supply is faulty as it is supplied by the owner of this website!! Of course there is always the possibility that there is another fault aswell
I hope I have made sense with this story
Anyone who can offer useful advice then please don't hesitate etc and thanks in advance
Having done all this I switched the TV on to have exactly the same problem in that the screen flicker for only half a second, the led at the base of the screen remains green and I have perfect sound.
thx for reading

Hi Thomas sounds like your back light is out! therefore meaning the invertor board is faulty and not the power supply. Hope this helps

Many, many thanks for this. I don't want to spend too much money on this set as it will very easily become cost effective to buy new.........However, having said that, if I can repair cheaplt etc I will carry on with my journey into the innards of this TV set. Please tell me in simple layman's terms how I get to this board and is it not possible (I assume a backlight is a light) just to replace the light. Is there a simple way to identify the failure? I have had a quick look around and seen a price of £120 to replace the inverter board so that is not an option.
I would just like to thank you again for your reply and info

Hi Tom
Backlight is a row of flouresent tubes behind the screen, its most unlikely these are faulty. Identifying invertor board is fairly simple, as it has 6 or 7 leads connected over its whole length, comfirming that its faulty could be difficult without a scope, also there are very high dangerous voltages in this area.
I may be as well to forget it and flog it off on E-Bay as spares or repair, to recover the cost of new power supply, which you can also sell.

Thanks again...........I think I have made progress. I have identified and removed the backlight inverter board (I hope you are impressed!!......lol). I think they are called the SMD transformers (there are six) - the 7 black IC's in mounts. I have taken the opportunity to measure resistance between the solder points (after seeing a diagram in some obscure website) all have the same characteristics except one which has an open circuit between the 2 pins at one end of the chip )whereas the others all show about 950 ohms. The board is a Darfon V070 - 001. The number across the back of the SMD transformers is 4006A540.021 GP (the ? faulty one) the others all have similar but variable numbers after the dot. These chips look like they are removable but I am scared to use any force in case I damage it.
Is it possible that I may have found the fault or am I talking complete nonsense!?
Please reply
thx again
Tom
