    Samsung UE55H8000 Backlight Power Problem

    Have a Samsung UE558000, which I thought was just going to be a straightforward backlight replacement, as the screen was dark in the middle.

    After stripping it down, I noticed it was exactly the same lights out on both sides (see pic)

    I tested the strips with LED tester, and no bulbs were out, so I tested the voltage going to the strips, both at the board side, and at the strip.

    On Blue, there is 30.5v on pin 3 and 9, but nothing on the others.
    Same situation on White, 30.5v pin 2 and pin 8

    All caps look ok, anyone any idea?

    Put the mainboard from the power supply, then does the lighting go completely?
    Then put both plugs off the Tcon. What happens then?
    Show all three LEDs on the TCON when everything is connected?
    It is possible that your two LED drivers IC SLC3014M are defective or the error comes from a defective panel.

      I changed the power board and that sorted it

        LED problem on samsung UE55F6475, 2 strips work. The rest is flashing every second.
        by Kingfreddie
        Ok.. this is the story:
        Have an old Samsung LED 3D TV (UE55F6475). First it started to lose light on the lower 40% of the screen now and then. Like for 10-60 mins and then it would work again. Then a bit later it just got stuck in that position. The lower 40% of the screen is dark, and it gets progressively darker the lower u go so it's obviously that LED strips where not working. I also looked for similar errors online and saw an exact copy and on that one it was faulty LED strips.

        This is kinda how it looked, just that mine were at the bottom of the screen:

        Samsung UE32D4010 Backlight problem, led ok
        by fanaticgames
        hello I have a backlight problem on this TV, if I unplug the cn201 cable the backlight works perfectly and the voltages are 13v if I connect the cn201 cable the backlight goes off and the voltage drops to 12v, I assume it's a motherboard problem, the question is has anyone had a similar problem? I want to understand if the motherboard is repairable or it's not worth wasting time...

        Samsung BN44-00284A Backlight problem
        by sandinemail@hotmail.com
        Samsung BN44-00284A in a Samsung LE40B755 TV bought 2009.

        In November 2020 the TV didn“t turn on only flashing red diod on front off TV.

        I then opened up the TV and found bulged capacitors on the inverter/powerboard.

        I changed all capacitors except the main two 450V 100uf capacitors.
        The TV has worked pefectly since.

        But this week it started to turn off the backlight. Audio on TV still works.
        Sometimes it turn off the backlight after 10 seconds but sometimes it works for hours.

        Any suggestions on what might...

        Samsung QE82Q70RAT no backlight
        by sansanpartida
        Hi everyone!

        Hope you're all having a great day, and thank you very much for stopping by and taking the time to read this post to help me with my parents' Samsung TV.

        My issue: No backlight.

        Model: QE82Q70RAT
        Type No: QE82Q70RAT

        The TV was already serviced by Samsung once under warranty for the exact same issue, but six months after the fix, the backlight went out again. Now, Samsung is asking for nearly the same price as a brand new TV to fix this with the same 6-month guarantee.

        So hopefully, I can fix this cheaper.
