    Epson LX-300

    I have 2 old Epson LX-300 dot matrix printers, one with colored ribbon prints normally, the other with black ribbon only, with the same parallel cable Centronics and in the same cpu, prints from the center to the right of the sheet and keeps trying to print, would it be an alignment problem or some sensor?
    Sometimes she starts printing well but then "slides" to the right of the sheet.

      probably dust/dirt in the sensing.
      it will either have a disc or steel band with slots in it so small you wont see them without a lamp - it uses it to count "pixels" as it moves the carriage.
      or it could be a problem with the led/sensor assembly that it passes through.

          T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
          by Tr0ll
          Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

          The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

          Original T-con:
          Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

          First replacement T-con:

          I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

          Quick question about the ribbon
          by Rubenlily
          Hey,

          So I have horizontal lines on my TV and I'm trying to trouble shoot. My question about the ribbon is:

          When I disconnect one ribbon from the t-con I should get half picture working and other half black or something like that correct? But when I disconnect the ribbon on one side I just get a dark screen and it doesn't matter what side I disconnect. I just get the dark screen. No half working, no one half black and the other one left. Sound is playing from the TV so it's obviously on and when both sides are connected I have the picture with the horizontal lines...

          UN70NU6900FXZA Won't Boot Unless I Temporarily Disconnect Right LVDS Ribbon
          by Scincidae
          I recently was given a UN70NU6900FXZA that would only boot loop once plugged in (auto powers on when plugged in). I found that disconnecting the lower (right side) LVDS ribbon, then plugging the TV in, followed by reconnecting the lower LVDS ribbon will allow the TV to work 100% normal as far as I can tell (no lines, no discoloration, no dimming or anything like that).

          I tried the tape method on the lower LVDS ribbon and found that if I cover pins 10 and 11 (counting from the bottom up) allows the TV to boot normal but 25% screen all the way to the right side is discolored. While...

          50" LG tv with a slightly torn ribbon cable ~ Any repair method?
          by kca
          Hello all ~

          I have this LG 50" plasma tv that is in perfect working condition except for the fact that it has one (and only one), singular torn ribbon strip on one (and only one) of the 8 orange ribbon connectors that feed from the Y-Sustain to the screen itself.

          So, as a result, there is one, singular thin black horizontal line that goes across the entire screen. Distracting enough to render the picture unwatchable for all intents and purposes.

          What I am wondering is if anyone out there has ever had any success in fixing one of these ribbon cables...

          LG 55LN5710 backlight diffuser sheet order
          by Lee M.
          Hello all, new member here. I replaced the LED strips and found that the BL can be turned on with the TCON board and LCD panel disconnected. So new LED strips are working fine. Now the problem. There are 3 diffuser sheets on this set. One sheet is thicker than the others and I know it goes in first next to the LED strips. But one side of this sheet has a rougher texture than the other side. Does the rough side go up or down? The 2 thinner sheets have tabs that will only allow them to be installed one way so that's good. One sheet is what I would call plain translucent. The other sheet is whiter...
