![]() Power supply board BN44-00618A keeps blowing main fuse and nothing plugged in to it.
I was gifted a 64PN5500AF, picture was amazing, but tv smelled like cigarettes and was dusty AF. I opened it up, blew all the dust out of it, removed PSB & main, and cleaned the metal underneath. Also blew all the dust off all other boards. Put the power supply back in, then mainboard. Soon as I turned it on there was a "pop". The main fuse (T12AH250V) blew I removed the power supply to be sure nothing underneath, all good. Soldered on a t12ah250v fuse and sure enough it popped again. Unplugged the mainboard and Y board - last fuse, it popped again. I've ordered more fuses, but what can be the issue? |

![]() There's usually a sheet of something under the power supply to stop it shorting on the back of the chassis, that's not fell off when you were cleaning has it ?
Photos will help us to see. I think the model number is wrong, is it a PN64F5500AF ? |

![]() Yes you're right, it is a PN64F5500AF . There wasn't any sheet underneath, the risers are built into the sheet metal. Will take some pics of the PSB and get them posted

![]() Unplugged and with main caps. discharged. Measuring across middle pins on bridge rectifier and across outer pins with multimeter on continuity should read open.

![]() Both bridge rectifiers taken out of circuit to be sure. Both are perfect,
• On a whim, I replaced with another fuse from another PS board (same t12), did not solder in the bridge rectifiers (so none on the board), screwed the board back down, plugged in and turned on. Fuse is ok. ... • Soldered the bridge rectifiers back in. Did not mount the board, laid it on rubber mat. Powered on and "zap" went the fuse. Last edited by nickgronk; 01-23-2022 at 07:23 PM.. Reason: did some testing. |

![]() Check, looks like NT801s, I believe it's the mov, it's green, looks like one of those blue ceramic capacitors but it's not a cap, located just right of where you plug the power cord in, check in diode mode, it should be open as in not beep and NOT read 000 which would mean short.

![]() Is it a constant steady beep?

![]() NT801s is a NTC thermistor, 11Ω is fine it does not read open.

![]() Ok, thanks RJ, I thought it might be the mov because I didn't see the mov anywhere else, does this tv not have one?

and the pfc circuit mosfets like QP801c. With no main board connected, it is likely the power supply is turning on all the circuits so a fault in any of them will blow the fuse. Last edited by R_J; 01-23-2022 at 09:26 PM.. |

![]() NT801s is just a current limiter for when the power supply is in standby, It gets shorted out by the relay contacts when the power supply is turned on.

![]() Your problem will be on other side of bridge rectifiers. Probably fet.
