Help fixing AOC Plasma (Samsung board)

[Chrisroberts7577]

I need help getting help, finding a replacement board, or even finding
the schematic for an AOC (A42HD84) Plasma tv. I believe the main
power supply board (Samsung, LJ44-00092C) is the problem.

When I got the TV there was a blown fuse on the board. See some pics
of the board here: http://chrisroberts7577.googlepages.com/plasmarepair

When the board gets power there is only one voltage correctly present,
all others are non-existent.

Any help or guidance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

At the risk of stating the obvious, the fact that you are getting only
one voltage (the standby voltage?) suggests that your set is not
coming out of standby.

One thing that strikes me straight away is that the solder joints
around various coils (L465 & L466 & L341 ?) are not shiny. I usually
reflow the solder at all the coils, whether good or bad.

The most obvious approach is to trace out the circuit around the blown
fuse, or at least test all the active components in that area. Likely
culprits would be the two MOSFETs on the adjacent heatsink which would
probably be driven by the IR2109 Half-Bridge Driver IC:

Another candidate could be an open NTC resistor near the fuse. These
resistors are used to limit the inrush current to the main bulk
capacitor(s).

There must also be a signal (PS_ON ?) coming in via this board ...

.... that switches on the main PSU. Confirm that this signal is
changing state when you turn the set on, and then check to see that
the output of this board is switching the AC supply.

BTW, AOC is a well known monitor manufacturer.
