TV Main Panel Replacement A Do It Yourself Guide

By Maria Butler


Replacing the main board in your television is not an easy task especially if you are not a technician. Maybe you are thinking of just disposing the television and buy a new one. Or maybe you are thinking of just letting a technician do the job for you. That sounds like the best thing to do. But you can actually do some basic TV main board replacement if you want to. In this article, I will show you simple steps that you could follow and try to replace that faulty main board. These steps are for those who have a knack for experimenting with things.

The most common culprit of TV issues can be solved by simply replacing the EEPROM chip. This is the chip responsible for housing the firmware of your television set. When the firmware is corrupted issues will start occurring. This is the most part that could sustain damage since the program inside the chip is a very fragile one. It can be erased easily.

Before starting the work, prepare the tools and the workplace. Also, make sure that no other signs of damages can be observed from the board. Burns actually shows signs of power surge and needs another guide to fix the issue. I am showing you how to replace a damaged EEPROM chip, so you may refer to other guides to handle power surge issues. You do not want to be distracted while working. Take your time in working on your new quest. There is no time limit for this job. Enjoy the process while trying to learn what you can from the experience.

To replace this part we need to buy the exact part that is used in the mainboard model. This is to ensure that the firmware inside it is compatible with your television. Incompatible firmware simply does not work.

To remove the main board, we need to remove the rear cover first. Different models have different numbers of screws. You just have to remove all of them. Make sure to place them in a single place so that you can easily find all of them after we are done with the replacement. After removing all the screws, the rear cover can now be removed easily.

Make sure to perform the steps carefully as you do not want to damage the healthy components of the panel. Damaging healthy parts will bring more frustration on the job and you may end up damaging the whole panel.

I would recommend replacing the damage component rather than buying the mainboard which actually costs more. You just need a few technical skills to perform the operations. And with enough patience, you might be able to bring back a dead television set back to life.

The actual repair of the TV panel should now proceed smoothly. You will be able to do the thinking with an organized feel just by preparing the necessary things beforehand. These might appear very simple but these steps will actually maximize the success that you could be achieving in line with your television main panel replacement job.

There you have the stuffs that need deep consideration. You should only start the actual work after all these pre-required stuffs are attained. You cannot complete a replacement process without the necessary tools and the substitute parts. You may not want to waste your time starting the job knowing that you will not be able to complete it because of lacking tools and parts.
