This right here is slash was my television and unfortunately This is all that it does now. This right here is a PSA to tell you get a surge protector because The power went out and then my TV never turned on again It was very sad and also make sure that your surge protectors are surge protectors because I had a power bar that looks Exactly like the other surge protectors that I have in my home But it turns out it was not a surge protector and my TV is now dead and I am very sad Well, I'm not sad. I got an LG C2 and it's way better, but We're gonna find out what happened with this. Let's get into it. First of all, what we're gonna do here We're only just plug in the TV and Confirm that it's sitting in the warehouse for a couple months has not resulted in it just magically turning on this also is going to Result in the capacitors being charged in the power supply, which is not ideal I probably shouldn't be doing this right now, but at the same time We just need to verify Try and press the button on the back Yep, that's a Not the picture quality that you want. Let's take it apart. How do you take apart a TV? That is a really good question that we are going to find out Right now taking with the screws is where I'm going to start. This television is a Sony XBR 900F 65 inches and overall I really liked it. It has Android TV Built in which is in my mind the best OS for a television It just generally works and also because it's Android based it has an absolute craft load of apps So you don't have to worry about Some service that you want just not existing and that can be really bad on like Visios and stuff where maybe it does have an app But it only has the US version of an app and it just doesn't work in Canada or something stupid like that Usually I'd say good luck on this one, but I don't want you to break the leg. How would I break a leg? I Think we're gonna be just fine. Although this screw is definitely stripped So I can stay in there. You're a Vesa mounting screws How long have you had this TV for? I really didn't have this TV for that long. Let's find out I actually got this as part of a video back when a video idea is we're just hey, it'd be really cool if I had a television You just got to keep the TV Yeah, so we wanted to do a sponsored video with Sony and we had a bunch of quite good ideas and The brand hated all of them and then we had the idea where I was just like I want a television and my girlfriend Absolutely hates my current speaker setup. So what about we just put a soundbar there instead and they were like we love it. Oh Five years ago actually wow time flies So it didn't have as bad of a run as I thought but at the same time like It still should definitely be working. Hey. Oh, that's part of the larger assembly. I see this is kind of cool I think that this right here is a port for the speakers on this television So that would be importing the subwoofer to give it lower base extension now. I think about it I don't know if I ever once listened to the speakers on this television It arrived with a soundbar as part of the video and why would I ever not just use the soundbar? So that just comes out and now. Ah, that's smart They must have it set up so they can super easily just change out the power cable for different regions This might be ready to come off now. I'm not entirely sure. Oh, oh Come on. Come on Did I miss any screws? How do you do this? With confidence with confidence, okay, I'm gonna just confidently reef on it. Oh, there we go Ha very cool. So that's the television. Well, no, that's more of a power supply If I have any chance of actually fixing this it would be because something is very obvious right here so if there was a power surge and a fuse exploded I might be able to replace that fuse and Then we'd be able to actually have a television. I strongly suspect that's not what has gone wrong And by looking at it, I really do not see anything obvious here. This all looks not exploded Like I was really hoping they would just be like this fuse right here and that fuse would be just My guess is that the power surge went through this and Into whatever microprocessor is over here and exploded that so we're not really going to have any chance to fix this But at the same time we can take a look at how it works, which is kind of fun Now one thing that's pretty annoying is that even on quite expensive TVs like this one a lot of the power supplies only will be Protecting the greater circuits in the house that are around them. They don't so much protect themselves That's why you need to get a surge protector or something like that your PC power supply like my computer It was just plugged directly into the wall Completely fine. See sonic power supply all good. This right here not so much What's even more annoying is just how many frickin leads Come off of this power supply. I think that every single zone of dimming gets its own line from here But also I might be completely wrong. I don't really know what I'm talking about. I think our speaker is free now Aha, oh, no, that's just a grill. Oh, but I was correct. We can now see the speaker right here It's only one shockingly, but we do have a nice old port right here. That's down firing So I said that it was ported, but I don't see how this vents into here But I also don't see anywhere else that it could be And it's plastic welded together That's a hammer can't fix. Yeah, I was kind of thinking that It must just vent into this enclosure through Here somewhere it does look like it's kind of plastic welded in there I was just expecting for like all of the magnet and stuff to be inside of the enclosure instead of just sort of hanging out Let's not destroy this There is a chance it still could be perfectly fine That actually there really isn't Is that a wi-fi card? I have no clue Kind of looks like that's our wi-fi. We only have a single antenna, which means it's one by one internet not that it's anything new for tv's to have asked your internet, but It is still just disappointing to see. Oh wait, wait, wait, wait, wait It looks like they have spots right here for other antennas to clip in but they aren't clipped in so I don't know what's going on right here We have the lighting for our sony logo on the front so you can see it pumps light in right here and there and there for Reasons where does this one line up? Oh, I'm just taking things off So we no longer have wi-fi. I looked up the part number for this and uh, I got a shower head. This part number is not doing anything so Let's keep on going No, no, what are you doing? I couldn't figure a headache Okay, so We have a bunch of these actually so I should probably figure out how to do it This built-in cable management that they have in here is actually pretty cool. These like little Zip ties that are built into the back of the tv. PC case manufacturers. Let's get on it. Yeah, do this. It's actually pretty cool There's our power button It doesn't turn on Oh god, it's micro b even worse. Oh geez So that cable just went right down to our wi-fi module And instead of having like, you know, dedicated normal stuff They just have a mini b cable in here for signaling which like fair enough. These things are probably dirt dirt cheap Well, it is kind of silly how they did that It's like the uh, what the heck is that called the ping pong machine where Elijah took the HDMI that was actually power and plug it into the wrong Block blew up the whole thing. I don't know why we started another pretense of this ever working again at all This is clearly just a tear down at this point, but I just want to keep on going and see what we can find It's like an iFixit video without the fix. Yeah I really want to see all of the different backlight zones. I'm curious what that looks like on the back So what do you think about the current political and economic state of the world? Uh, overall vibes not the best all that I can say is blahblahs What's his name not gaben, uh, no, I gave Whoa, they were hiding that What are this control panel? Oh So this must be controlling some of the zones that are down here Then we also have control from Here for different zones. I guess oh knockoff gaben is galen good old galen weston jr. F*** that guy Well, let's have a little look at the main board here. So we can see this right here. I believe Is some circuitry for the speakers because speaker leads come off right there Now this Come on. I'll take this off. Yeah, this is a definitely Oh how you're supposed to do it. Oh, we could probably take out the board and then push the clips together from the back And that way we wouldn't have to do Yeah scary Yeah, come on That way we wouldn't have to do Oh that oh that is a CPU. Yeah from media tech thermal paste in there. Let's clean it off and see what it is Well, I wasn't able to find out much information on this processor, but you can buy them For 20 bucks on ebay, which is kind of cool So if we actually wanted to get this tv working again, my suspicion is that this guy right here is dead And so we would want to Reboll this right here like take this right here out put no one in 20 dollars whole tv probably works But we're not doing that today Do you already have a replacement for this tv? Oh, yeah, this has been long replaced as I said before I got a lgc2 a couple months ago because It's just a really good tv. I got a marketplace for a thousand dollars canadian Which I think is pretty sweet. It only had 200 hours on it and OLED freaking absolutely destroys this tv just Smashes it out of the park. Even if this one right here was way brighter It doesn't matter the contrast is just so freaking good on OLED We should do a tv pc Oh my god Something that I completely erased from my memory was that we designed the gaming television like Many many years ago including like solidworks renders and and it's one of the worst things that we've ever done Well, honestly, it's like we need to tell tv makers that this is what they need to do And then no one did because the idea was fucking terrible Also, this is not coming off any easier now. We have access to the back Although I will just clip these tabs off and then it will be a bit easier You just no scope that Yes Oh, this is a sony proprietary one There's playstation branded headsets and stuff. How's there not a playstation branded tv? There is a playstation tv. There's like two or three playstation tvs The first one I think was for the ps2 and that one I think tried to do 3d It also did this really cool thing where it used the polarizers For like the 3d, but instead you could just do it. So you could do two player But it would be the full television two player so you could have One player gets a screen with the vertical polarization and one player gets the horizontal polarization. So Even though your resolution is halved. It was pretty freaking cool. And you couldn't screen peak Presumably this sony proprietary chip rate here handles all of their display algorithms. So if you look All of the traces come in from your HDMI and it's going to our media tech chip rate here. So that's handling All of our like processing the os and stuff like that And then it goes out and goes into this sony chip Which is handling things like it's going off to the little DAC amplifier thing for your sound and then it's coming out of here to go to all of your display So this is telling it like hey, this is how you make An image boom. Maybe we should have gotten an actual engineer over here, but We can just have fun taking this apart instead Like we're going to water cool a tv I really need to take that project and start it again. I completely forgot about it. Would you even water cool? Uh, you wouldn't water cool a television like this but on OLEDs and stuff You can get better accuracy throughout the whole panel if you have water cooling And also some of them like particularly the ASUS ones can be kind of loud Because they need active cooling in the back. So if you just water cool it now you have a silent tv OLED gets super duper cranky at like It's only like 60 degrees celsius or something like that and it'll start degrading So it is pretty crucial to make sure that it is kept nice and cool. Whereas this one right here Doesn't care I'm just guessing here. I actually have no idea But my guess is that this control board on the bottom is what controls the lcd So this right here is what's making the panel in front display all of the colors and stuff I'm guessing this guy right here that has a lot more power circuitry, but less actual like Thinking circuitry. This is handling the local dimming. So that's Taking the backlight behind it and giving you all of those extra zones, which hopefully we can see But we'll find out pretty soon. I have no clue what these look like on the inside I really feel like you could find like an atx board right there Oh, yeah, you could definitely just slap an entire computer in this thing now that I see how much space there is Floatplane. No, we're not doing that Unless this video gets 5,000 likes unless this video gets 5,000 likes. Is that really good for Floatplane? Uh, that's never happened. Never happened. Okay, unless this video gets 5,000 likes Until today Hit like get subscribed. I really don't want to do that One thing I am a little concerned about So far everything here has just been philips head screws, which is great But I am seeing rivets in here that does kind of make sense because this right here is our besa mounting structure So if you check your tv on the wall, this right here is holding it up and making sure that it doesn't like Fall on your dog or something like that But if these rivets go through into something that's a bit more substantial than just this back EMI shielding plate that could be an issue Oh, right Look at all these contacts. There's only a couple of them that are actually filled in and I have no clue why Big RAM Yeah, big RAM Gdr 27 just all of that. Can I just take this out now? Oh, can I take the bottom off? Oh, I can. Hi We're taking apart my television because it died And I just kind of wanted to look inside of it. But why do you think there's so many contacts all along here? This right here. I was guessing is for the lcd Just because of how it was arranged. But why like it seems just kind of wasteful like all of these. Yeah, all of these I have no idea. Okay. I am not the electronics people Any comments on the power supply? No, no, I asked the other people All right, I can do mechanical stuff Electronics are magical Yeah, they do things Google has good answers usually. Wow, this is kind of heavy I'll also be careful because some of these caps might be charged Oh, if we throw it on the welding table in their charge, do you think it would explode? I don't think it would explode It would bridge them to discharge Oh, we mean the back. Yeah, the back Oh Ah, let's just kind of rest against not that. Yeah, let's rest it on something that's plastic There we go. Nothing exploded. Cool. Yeah We're kind of already past the electronics bit We're now just at the let's take it apart as far as we can and see what it looks like on the inside I feel like there's a way to take this off Looking at these little clips right here It seems like you probably push it in one direction or the other One way or another Oh, that's definitely. Oh god. Oh, yeah, that's not going back together Yeah, I get into the part that I really want to look at might be a bit difficult Creating the brutal part of this operation Life's just like a game. It's really hard to get to Probably something valuable inside I can marry a wonder when there's that really hard level with all of the music and you finally complete it and you're like, oh my god I finally completed that And then it turns it right after there's just a harder one You need to make sure that you are worthy My girlfriend had an absolute time getting through that level What are other times there's been just Something really difficult and then something even more difficult Definitely in the souls games have been some real bulls**t losses where you're like, oh my god I finally beat them after three phases and then it turns out there's just like a fourth phase or something stupid like that It's cool. It's cool. It just keeps on getting harder Oh, oh, wow. That was it just slides right off smart moves mogul I wonder if the other ones slid off like that if you knew what you're doing We've got these suction cups here. I believe they are for removing Windows, but I don't see why it wouldn't just oh Wow, that one's easy. Uh, I'm caught It's this Yes, it's actually it's actually Do we get it? Yeah Oh, there's a oh, there's something It's a wiimote sensor So what is this that's in my hands? Uh display is this I think this is the polarizer though. I think this is glass Um, I can't see through it at all. High flow plane High flow plane Oh, this is the actual lcd panel If you look really closely here, you can see each individual pixel In there It does confirm that I was correct before so this right here is our lcd panel Our controllers are all down here. So that's what's you know twist in those crystals so that you can get your image And behind it is our backlight big old diffuser there This is fun. Are you having fun? I'm having a blast. Yeah I wonder if we can just suction cup this again It's the whole lcd panel right there Yeah, it really looks like there's two layers of diffusion I don't really know why I'm sure there is a good reason This looks like a big poster board. It really does So this this is oh wow I have never seen local dimming zones before But for whatever reason, I thought that it was more sophisticated than just freaking LEDs like this. That's actually really cool. So yeah, it is just two layers of diffusion that are held up with These very simple little plastic spikes. So this is actually quite simple We just have two layers of diffusion. So these guys right here And then it's just leds with a little bit of a gap and that's how you get your local dimming zones That's really cool. Can I take off this? I don't see why not It is literally just led strips back Cool They look like just kind of what you would have in your computer even though these right here are probably way heckin brighter and also I don't know where I was going with the also, but How many dimming zones did we have? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 18 180 zones Quick math Cool Yeah, I was really afraid that I have to do some hard math that way It was by 10 which is beautiful Well, I think this about concludes our little dive into my television. That is no longer a television, but That was quite neat. I did not know that it was just set up like this like I knew but I've never seen something like this in person before so have a great old airflow plane"}
