Re: LG 50UH5500-UA - No picture

I found that two of the wires one led- and one led+ were unseated from the power supply. After making sure they were in the tv now has backlight but one side is darker than the other. I hope it is not a bad panel and think it might be a bad tcon. Does any one have a suggestion?

Looks like half of the panel isn't illuminated. It's not the tcon.

Nice thread, so in this model it looks like it failed the flashlight test BUT was still a bad led in backlights, that's GOOD info. and should help a lot of people with similar issues.

I don't even do a flashlight test. If a LED TV fails to turn on without backlight or backlight flashes on power up, I will suspect a bad LED and can probe the LED connection with my LED tester or open it up. LG LN, LA & LB series, Samsung EH and H series, any RCA, Hisense, Haier, or Insignia. Currently 2014 model years are the most common.

The PN 5835-W50002-2P00.

I found in several places complete package (12 bars) around 69$.

I've had two of these same LG's. Identical symptoms. No image with flashlight. One LED failed open. Unless you are fixing the TV for yourself, I recommend replacing the full set of backlights with NEW. 10% savings at shopjimmy through the end of April. And reduce backlight setting!
