It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.

I can't get sound through my headphones on my Bravia kdl-52xbr5 tv. First time I have tried to hook up the headphones which are sharper image wireless
I take it the headphones are charged up and known to be in good working order? Are you using the 3.5mm headphone jack on the side of the TV or the white and red RCA jacks labeled AUDIO OUT (VAR/FIX)? If using the headphone jack the TV should shut off the internal speakers and output to the headphones. If using the mentioned RCA jacks you need to go into the audio options settings and set to Audio System. Also under audio settings, Audio Out, you can pick Fixed or Variable. If you opt for Fixed you will use the headphones to adjust the volume. If you opt for Variable you can control the headphone volume and muting using your TV remote control. Just make sure you have the headphone volume turned up adequately.
How do i get the external audio output to work?
First make sure that your TV has an audio OUT. Most do not. If you do then you can plug into that but you will have to go into the menu on the TV under audio and turn on the external speaker feature. If you do not have an audio OUT then you will have to hook you speaker to the audio OUT of your home stereo system and hook the source output to the input of your stereo. Source being (dvd, cable box). In that case you need to turn off the internal speakers on the TV and just run it through your home stereo system.

Turn down background noise?
Look in the menus for a setting labeled "Hall" etc that will cause background sound to be louder than people talking in the foreground etc--a lot of sets have this and the background being louder usually points to it being on.It can be in audio menu or another sub menu---experiment a bit to find it.
My kdl52xbr5 has three horizontal
Hello,
All Plasma and LCD TV have boards that control vertical and horizontal output to their respective areas. They are connected to the screen by ribbon cables. If one of these boards fails all together, has a failed chip, a bad connection, or a bad ground somewhere it will result in a black line in the area of that board. A bad ribbon cable connection on the bottom will result in a vertical black bar though the screen. Many times resetting the connection will fix it, if the ribbon cable has been nicked there could be a severed connection. They an sometimes be fixed, but it is a pain. An yes I have done it, but the bar is gone. The same will happen if the chip that outputs to that area opens. The connectors are the first place to look paying close attention to the cable, they are extremely delicate so great care must be taken if you decide to tinker with em, the usually have lift locks that release them, but it is very easy to wreck em.
Good luck in solving the problem......
The left half of the
Most of the issues like this are caused by the T-CON board. This board comes with the LCD panel and is usually not available to get separately. It is matched at the factory to work with the LCD panel it comes with. At lease that is the story the Sony Tech Department has told me.
Most likely yo will need to replace the LCD Panel to fix the set. For a 52" it would run around 1,800.00 with shipping and handling.
I hope this helps,

Removing the stand
Check to see if you got all the screws, usually there are 4-6 screws holding the stand in the TV. The are usually all on the center bottom on the back. When the TV is on the floor, try lifting with two people, one on each side directly up evenly. The stand should stay on the floor as the TV is removed.
