    LG 47LA620V Same LED Failing Back Light Issues

    Hi All,

    I need some help with this one please. I am attempting a repair on the backlight. TV turns on and flashes the LG logo so stripped it down and found one faulty LED. Replaced it and tested on an LED tester and the strip was good. Put it back onto the PSU and it lasted about 20 seconds before going out again. Same LED had blown. Changed it for another type of SMD one (same voltage) and it seemed fine. Put the TV back together but it was quite dim. Noticed it was in power save mode so turned it off and the screen was bright. Left it on for half an hour only to come back to the same bloody LED blown. Seems odd that this is the 3rd LED in the same place in the same strip to blow. I've had similar issues on another TV and found a mod to reduce the current going to the backlight and this sorted that but with this PSU board (Vestel EAX64905501) I'm not sure how to do it.

    Any advice guys?

    no need any mode... just BL level bring it down to 59% .... also you put wrong SMD LED.. it should 4.7V build in zener diode

        I’ve bid on the same make and model with the same fault described as above.

        What would be the correct way to diagnose and repair? Replace the suspect diode with a 4.7v zener diode then drop the backlight down to 57%?

        Exciting times!

              i have fixed the same model by replacing some leds, if i remember was 3,7v, i don't know the watts, must match also that.. sorry no notes in the file, maybe when im on pc i find it in the emails

                Thanks all, I will get some on order, hopefully it was just because I used the wrong spec LED.

                  Just an update, it was the wrong spec led. Ordered some marked for LG tv's and it worked fine.

                    As someone who does these jobs daily , if you are going to an extent of opening the tv with removing the screen , you should replace the whole set of strips . Soldering by hand is not a good technique, and you will have problems. This is tested and tried by me .. Always replace whole strips as a unit , if you want to have some serious success with this... otherways i wouldnt really bother

                      This happened last Saturday and today I finally had time this morning before I went to work to replace two non brand capacitors

                      I will let you be the judge weather or not these are bad or not according to the blue ESR meter that I am using

                      I am comparing them to a brand new one that I installed

                      The display came back on and the programming was not lost which I was surprised by I would have thought that when the display went blank that so did the memory as well

                      Zombie Samsung UN55NU6900F dead / no standby voltage - randomly came to life after hours of troubleshooting then died
                      by tvguy12012012120
                      This is my first attempt at troubleshooting a board like this, I know I could just buy a new board but I'm curious to figure out how this works. I've been testing different components in the evenings this week and I think the problem is with the IC failing to start up for some reason. When the board is plugged in there is no standby voltage.

                      Then today it randomly sprung to life like a zombie but shortly died thereafter. I have no idea why it would have done that and its the first time I've seen it running. I discharged capacitors on the board last night, then it was sitting today....

                      by matthewmcconaughey
                      Hello, Badcaps is my last resort. I am the first owner of the monitor. I reached almost every repair store in my area, but no one even wanted to hear about troubleshooting an old CRT monitor. At this point, I have been trying to figure it out by myself, but I have no idea where to start or look for.

                      I wish to know how to think and locate a failing component. I will put all my efforts to learn and contribute.
                      1. It started with a bright and greenish picture upon starting a cold monitor.
                      2. About 2 years ago, only on the cold boot, the screen started to occasionally flash with
