maxim 37" lcd tv psu ic chip blown
joeontherun:
Hi there i am a owner of a maxim 37" lcd tv and may have found a fault, again this looks to be related to my power supply unit i have one small IC chip that looks blown actualy i can see plainly, one leg is completly separated, basicly my tv comes on and just goes blank sometimes it will show stripes down the screen,
The reason i have come to the conclusion that the chip is the issue is my brother switched the tv on one morning and seen a slight flash comming from that area of the back of the lcd tv and smelled burning,
My question is can you help me thanks i have gone to the trouble of removing the power board and can clearly see the IC chip is blowing at one side i dont know if its some voltage regulator chip not great with electronics even though i did a course on it a few years back,
The chip has a code on top of it i typed this code in to google with no results
Hope to hear from you soon thans for reading,

You will require a power supply repair kit probably,which should be fitted by a tv engineer. These kits contain surface mounted chips and if glued to the pcb,can be difficult to replace.

The best thing to do if you want that works is, take it to a
service.
Otherwise it is safer to have to buy a new appliance.
