Philips LCD TV Blown Fuse

This PHILIPS LCD TV  has a complaint no power. The owner of this tv is the son of my first cousin. He said that while their watching tv, they heard a loud bang coming from inside and the tv became dead. He open it and put another spare fuse and power it again and fuse blown again.It is a sign that there is some shorted component in the switch mode power supply. The model no of the tv is 32PFL3409/98. It is a 32 inch lcd tv.

This lcd tv was bought in abu dabhi in middle east. Upon opening i scan the components for possible clue of burnt and i did not noticed any. So i proceed to usual troubleshooting  to test the bridge type diode and it is okay. Second i test is power fet which has a part number K3561  and it is okay also. But i test it also out of circuit to be sure and found it in good condition. So i try to think what cause the fuse to blow if the bridge diode and fet is ok upon scanning i saw high voltage capacitor 1kv 221k a blue color that has dark spot on its body and i noticed it was blown. When you traced it from the positive of the bridge diode going to positive side of main filter capacitor, from that the other pin of switch mode chopper going to the drain of fet but before the drain there is this high voltage capacitor which protect the fet from blowing. I replaced it with 2kv 221J and the Lcd tv came back to life. But before i powered it i test all possible semiconductor that is prone to short like transistor, diode. I test also the optoisolator/ optocoupler. It has power ic FSD510 made by fairchild. It has two power fet K3561 which is not affected by short circuit which protect by two capacitors.

the second high voltage capacitor which has black spot is the culprit why the fuse blow.

HI ZED
thanks for reply .1KV cap is really high voltage cap but is used in powersupply area . that is why i asked you this question. when i find the calprite component i make a good foto of this also i make record what is the ESR meter or OHM meter says about this calprit after hour search

Hi Raffy,

Sorry for late reply. I am not advising to replace 221 1kv. You can order it thru internet. What country are you from. You can try but you will reap what will be the consequence. but not advising it might cause harm more to your lcd tv. you can 221 even 2kv but not the value should be change. look for junk electronics board it might have one.
