BEFORE SERVICING THE LCD MODULE, READ THE
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS IN THIS MANUAL.
WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE REQUIRED, BE
SURE TO USE REPLACEMENT PARTS SPECIFIED BY
THE MANUFACTURER.
Proper service and repair is important to the safe,
reliable operation of all HP equipment. The service
procedures recommended by HP and described in this
service manual are effective methods of performing
service operations. Some of these service operations
require the use of tools specifically designed for their
purpose, and should be used as recommended.
It is important to note that this manual contains various
Cautions and Notices that should be carefully read in
order to minimize the risk of personal injury to service
personnel. Improper service methods may damage the
equipment. It is also important to understand that these
Cautions and Notices are not exhaustive. HP could not
possibly know, evaluate, and advise the service trade
of all conceivable ways in which service might be
done or of the possible hazardous consequences of
each way. Consequently, HP has not undertaken any
such broad evaluation. Service technicians who use
service procedures or tools that are not recommended
by HP must exercise caution and be sure that neither
their safety nor the safe operation of the equipment will
be jeopardized by the service method selected.
Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Critical components having special
safety characteristics are identified with a
the reference number in the parts list.
WARNING: Use of substitute replacement parts,
which do not have the same specified safety
characteristics, may create shock, fire, or other
hazards. Under no circumstances should the
original design be modified or altered without
written permission from HP. HP assumes no
liability, express or implied, arising out of any
unauthorized modification of design. The service
technician assumes all liability.
by
CAUTION: To ensure the continued reliability of
this product, use only the original manufacturer’s
replacement parts, which are listed with their part
numbers in the “Replaceable Parts List” section of
this service manual.
WARNING: All ICs and many other
semiconductors are susceptible to electrostatic
discharges (ESDs). Careless handling during repair
can be life-threatening. When repairing, make sure
that you are connected with the same potential as
the mass of the set by a wristband with resistance.
Keep components and tools also at this same
potential.
WARNING:
1 Never replace modules or other components
while the unit is turned on.
2 When making settings, use plastic rather than
metal tools. This will prevent any short circuits
and the danger of a circuit becoming unstable.
WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, do not use
the polarized AC plug with an extension cord,
receptacle, or the outlet unless the blades can be
fully inserted to prevent blade exposure. To prevent
electrical shock, match the wide blade or plug to a
wide slot and fully insert.
WARNING: When replacement parts are
required, be sure to use replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or
other hazards.
HP High-Definition LCD TV Service Manual 1
WARNINGS:
Safety regulations require that after a repair the set
must be returned in its original condition. In particular
attention should be paid to the following points:
NOTE: The wiring should be routed correctly and fixed
with the mounted cable clamps. The insulation of the
main leads should be checked for external damage.
• Do not touch the signal and the power connector
while this product is operating. Do not touch the EMI
ground part and the heat sink of the film filter.
• Do not supply a voltage higher than that specified to
this product. This may damage the product and may
cause a fire.
• Do not use this product in locations where the
humidity is extremely high, where it may be
splashed with water, or where flammable materials
surround it. Do not install or use the product in a
location that does not satisfy the specified
environmental conditions. This may damage the
product and may cause a fire.
• If a foreign substance (such as water, metal, or
liquid) gets inside the panel module, immediately
turn off the power. Continuing to use the product,
may cause fire or electric shock.
• If the product emits smoke or an abnormal smell, or
it makes an abnormal sound, immediately turn off
the power. Continuing to use the product, may
cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not disconnect or connect the connector while
power to the product is on. It takes some time for the
voltage to drop to a sufficiently low level after the
power has been turned off. Confirm that the voltage
has dropped to a safe level before disconnecting or
connecting the connector.
• Do not pull out or insert the power cable from or to
an outlet with wet hands. It may cause electric
shock.
• Do not damage or modify the power cable. It may
cause fire or electric shock.
• If the power cable is damaged, or if the connector is
loose, do not use the product; this can lead to fire or
electric shock.
• If the power connector or the connector of the
power cable becomes dirty or dusty, wipe it with a
dry cloth. Continuing to use the product may cause
fire or electric shock.
• The LCD module uses a high-voltage (maximum
450V DC). Be cautious of electric shock and do not
touch the device circuitry when handling the LCD
unit. Because the capacitor of the device circuitry
may remain charged at the moment of power off,
standing by for 1 minute is strongly recommended
before touching the device circuitry.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip-over.
Safe Handling and Servicing
The work procedures shown with the
Warning symbol are important for ensuring
the safety of the product and the servicing
work. Be sure to follow these instructions.
• Before starting the work, secure a sufficient
workspace.
• At all times, other than when adjusting and checking
the product, be sure to turn off the Power button and
disconnect the power cable from the power source
of the TV during servicing.
• To prevent electric shock and breakage of PC
board, start the servicing work at least 30 seconds
after the main power has been turned off. Especially
when installing and removing the power supply
board and the SUS board, which involve high
voltages, start servicing at least 2 minutes after the
main power has been turned off.
• While the main power is on, do not touch any parts
or circuits other than the ones specified. The highvoltage power supply block within the LCD module
has a floating ground. If any connection other than
the one specified is made between the measuring
equipment and the high voltage power supply
block, it can result in electric shock or activation of
the leakage-detection circuit breaker.
• When installing the LCD module into and removing
it from the packing carton, be sure to have at least
two people perform the work while being careful to
ensure that the flexible printed-circuit cable of the
LCD module does not get caught by the packing
carton.
• When the surface of the panel comes into contact
with the cushioning materials, be sure that there is
no foreign matter on top of the cushioning materials.
Foreign matter may scratch the surface of the panel.
• Be sure to remove static electricity from your body
before handling the circuit board.
2 HP High-Definition LCD TV Service Manual
• Be sure to handle the circuit board by holding the
large parts such as the heat sink or transformer.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in the
occurrence of an abnormality in the soldered areas.
• Do not stack the circuit boards. Failure to observe
this precaution may result in problems resulting from
scratches on the parts, the deformation of parts, and
short-circuits due to residual electric charge.
• Routing the wires and fixing them in position must
be done in accordance with the original routing and
fixing configuration when servicing is completed. All
the wires are routed far away from the areas that
become hot (such as the heat sink). These wires are
fixed in position with the wire clamps so that the
wires do not move, thereby ensuring that they are
not damaged and their materials do not deteriorate
over long periods of time. Therefore, route the
cables and fix the cables to the original position
and states using the wire clamps.
• Perform a safety check when servicing is completed.
Verify that the peripherals of the serviced points
have not undergone any deterioration during
servicing. Also verify that the screws, parts, and
cables removed for servicing purposes have all
been returned to their proper locations in
accordance with the original setup.
• A glass plate protects the LCD display. This glass
plate can be cleaned with a slightly moist cloth. If
dirt appears between the glass plate and the LCD
display panel have only a qualified service
employee clean it.
Repair Tips
WARNING: All ICs and many other
semiconductors are susceptible to electrostatic
discharges (ESDs). Careless handling during repair
can be life-threatening. When repairing, make sure
that you are connected with the same potential as
the mass of the unit via a wrist wrap with
resistance. Keep components and tools also at the
same potential.
About Lead-Free Solder
NOTE: LEAD IS LISTED AS (PB) IN THE PERIODIC
TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS. IN THE INFORMATION
THAT FOLLOWS, PB WILL REFER TO LEAD SOLDER,
AND PBF WILL REFER TO LEAD-FREE SOLDER. THE
LEAD-FREE SOLDER USED IN OUR MANUFACTURING
PROCESS AND DISCUSSED HERE IS (SN+AG+CU).
THAT IS TIN (SN), SILVER (AG), AND COPPER (CU),
ALTHOUGH OTHER TYPES ARE AVAILABLE.
This model is manufactured using Pb-free solder for the
sake of environmental conservation. For service and
repair work, we suggest using Pb-free solder as well,
although Pb solder may be used.
PCBs manufactured using Pb-free solder have the sign
stamped on the PCB.
CAUTIONS:
• Pb-free solder has a higher melting point than Pb
solder. Typically the melting point is 50–70ºF
(30–40°C) higher. Use a high temperature soldering
iron. Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature
around 360–380ºC is reached and stabilized at the
solder joint. Heating time of the solder joint should
not exceed 4 seconds. Avoid temperatures above
400ºC; wear-out of tips will rise drastically and fluxfluid will be destroyed.
• Pb-free solder will tend to splash when heated too
high (about 1,100ºF or 600ºC).
• Mix of Pb-free solder Tin (SN)/parts with leaded
soldering Tin (SN) in/parts is possible but not
recommended. If you have to use Pb solder,
completely remove all of the Pb-free solder on the
pins or solder area before applying Pb solder. If this
is not practical, be sure to heat the Pb-free solder
until it melts, before applying Pb solder.
• After applying Pb-free solder to double-layered
boards, check the component side for excess solder
that may flow onto the opposite side (see the
following illustration).
HP High-Definition LCD TV Service Manual 3
• Special information for Pb-free BGA-ICs: These ICs
will be delivered in so-called dry-packaging to
protect the IC against moisture and with the Pb-free
logo on it. This packaging may only be opened
shortly before it is used (soldered). Otherwise the
body of the IC gets wet inside, and during the
heating time the structure of the IC will be destroyed
from steam pressure. If the packaging was opened
before usage the IC has to be heated up for about
90 hours to dry. Make sure you use ESD protection!
Suggested Pb-Free Solder
Several kinds of Pb-free solder (some shown in the
following illustration) are available for purchase. This
product uses Sn+Ag+Cu (tin (SN), silver (AG), copper
(CU)) solder. However, Sn+Cu (tin (SN), copper (Cu)),
Sn+Zn+Bi (tin (SN), zinc (Zn), bismuth (Bi)) solder can
also be used.
• Never rub or scrape chip components as this may
cause the value of the component to change.
Similarly, do not slide the circuit board across any
surface.
Removal of SMDs
1 Heat the solder (for 2 to 3 seconds) at each terminal
of the chip. By means of soldier wick and a slight
horizontal force, small components can be removed
with the soldering iron. They can also be removed
with a solder sucker (A).
2 While holding the SMD with a pair of tweezers, take
it off gently using the soldering iron’s heat applied to
each terminal (B).
3 Remove the excess solder on the solder lands by
means of soldier wick or a solder sucker (C).
Servicing of Surface-Mounted Devices
(SMDs)
CAUTIONS:
General cautions on handling and storage:
• Oxidation on the terminals of SMDs results in poor
soldering. Do not handle SMDs with bare hands.
• Avoid using storage places that are sensitive to
oxidation, such as places with sulphur or chlorine
gas, direct sunlight, high temperatures, or a high
degree of humidity. The capacitance or resistance
value of the SMDs may be affected by these
conditions.
• Rough handling of circuit boards containing SMDs
may cause damage to the components as well as
the circuit boards. Circuit boards containing SMDs
should never be bent or flexed. Different circuit
board materials expand and contract at different
rates when heated or cooled and the components
and/or solder connections may be damaged due to
the stress.
CAUTIONS:
• When handling the soldering iron, use suitable
pressure and be careful.
• When removing the chip, do not use undue force
with the pair of tweezers.
• The soldering iron to be used (approx. 30 W) should
preferably be equipped with a thermal control
(soldering temperature: 360º to 380º C).
• Once removed, the chip cannot be reused.
4 HP High-Definition LCD TV Service Manual
Attachment of SMDs
1 Locate the SMD on the solder lands by means of
tweezers and solder the component on one side.
Ensure that the component is positioned correctly on
the solder lands (A).
2 Complete the soldering of the terminals of the
component (B).
Rework on Ball Grid Array (BGA) ICs
General information
Although (LF) BGA assembly yields are very high, there
may still be a requirement for component rework. By
rework
, we mean the process of removing the
component from the PWB and replacing it with a new
component. If an (LF) BGA is removed from a PWB, the
solder balls of the component are deformed drastically
so the removed (LF) BGA has to be discarded.
Device removal
As is the case with any component that, it is essential
when removing an (LF) BGA, the board, tracks, solder
lands, or surrounding components are not damaged.
To remove an (LF) BGA, the board must be uniformly
heated to a temperature close to the reflow soldering
temperature. A uniform temperature reduces the
chance of warping the PWB. To do this, we
recommend that the board is heated until it is certain
that all the joints are molten. Then carefully pull the
component off the board with a vacuum nozzle. For
the appropriate temperature profiles, see the IC data
sheet.
CAUTIONS:
• When soldering the SMD terminals, do not touch
them directly with the soldering iron. The soldering
should be done as quickly as possible; care must be
taken to avoid damage to the terminals of the SMDs
themselves.
• Keep the SMD’s body in contact with the printed
board when soldering.
• The soldering iron to be used (approximately 30 W)
should preferably be equipped with a thermal
control (soldering temperature: 360º to 380º C).
• Soldering should not be done outside the
solder land.
• Soldering flux (of rosin) may be used but should not
be acidic.
• After soldering, let the SMD cool down gradually at
room temperature.
• The quantity of solder must be proportional to the
size of the solder land. If the quantity is too great,
the SMD might crack or the solder lands might be
torn loose from the printed board.
Area Preparation
When the component has been removed, the vacant IC
area must be cleaned before replacing the (LF) BGA.
Removing an IC often leaves varying amounts of solder
on the mounting lands. This excessive solder can be
removed with either a solder sucker or solder wick. The
remaining flux can be removed with a brush and
cleaning agent. After the board is properly cleaned
and inspected, apply flux on the solder lands and on
the connection balls of the (LF) BGA.
NOTE: Do not apply solder paste, as this has shown to
result in problems during resoldering.
Device replacement
The last step in the repair process is to solder the new
component on the board. Ideally, the (LF) BGA should
be aligned under a microscope or magnifying glass. If
this is not possible, try to align the (LF) BGA with any
board markers. To reflow the solder, apply a
temperature profile according to the IC data sheet. To
avoid damaging neighboring components, it may be
necessary to reduce some temperatures and times.

Component video provides the highest video quality currently available. Component video is used by HDTV receivers,
as well as some DVD players and other audio/video devices equipped with component video output. You can connect
two component video sources simultaneously by using the left column of ports for Source 1 and the right column of
ports for Source 2.

Component video cables transmit video in three channels—Y, Pb, and Pr. Some cables are five-headed with three
channels of video and two of audio, whereas others are three-headed and require a separate stereo audio cable. The
cables are connected as follows:
• The green port labeled Y connects to the cable carrying the Y signal.
• The blue port labeled Pb connects to the cable carrying the Pb signal.
• The red port labeled Pr connects to the cable carrying the Pr signal.
• The red port labeled R connects to the right audio channel.
• The white port labeled L connects to the left audio channel.
These connectors support 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i analog standard and high-definition format inputs. The TV
automatically determines what format is being used by the currently connected device.
HDMI Connectors
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is an all digital audio/video interface. This series of TVs uses HDMI
version 1.2 and supports 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i digital-format inputs. The TV automatically determines what
format is being used by the currently connected device.

HDMI devices are usually HDTV receivers or DVD players. They connect using a single cable with a multipin
connector. These TVs have three HDMI ports, so up to three HDMI devices can be connected at the same time.
The HDMI 1 port additionally supports separate HDMI audio. This configuration requires a DVI-to-HDMI converter that
connects a DVI cable from optional DVI equipment and connects to the HDMI audio in ports using a pair of stereo
audio connectors. The white port is for the left channel and the red port is for the right channel.
RS-232 Port
The RS-232 connector works like a serial port on a PC and is also sometimes called a serial port. It is used to receive
digital instructions from control applications running on a computer.
