Hi guys,
First time posting here, i've read the general guides and rules and will try to be as informative as possible.
First id like to tell you that i'm not the typical electronics guy, i have a v good technical xp and usually find my way through simple electronics issues, for this i'm out of thought and would like to hear what you guys think.
I have a tv that's my parents, im not sure how or why (neither do they) but it suddenly wouldn't turn on.
-wont turn on as in no power at all, power led not wont even light.
-I initially tested the power cable its fine
-i opened the tv and found the main fuse burnt. Its a 15AL fuse.
-i managed to replace it with a 10AL fuse (couldn't find a 15AL will get one on Monday)
-i tried to turn it on, my ups APS system went off as soon as i turned the tv on.
-i switched to regular power outside the APS
-power the tv> it made my lights go dim for a sec as if its starting up but nothing really happened. Still off
-new fuse (10AL) still ok
The only unusual thing i could see is a unit labeled "R4" that is near the fuse, it has a vivid blackish spot on it but dosent seem like burnt. Ill post a pic in a min.
Any thoughts are welcome
Thanks guys
