    LG 55LE8500 the legendary TV is off. Help

    hello I own these two legendary TVs.
    but I have the same problem on both.. tv turns on but no picture
    when I opened the TV, I encountered complicated electronics. I don't know where to start looking for the reason why there is no picture.. how to turn on the led light? but whatever..
    If anyone understands this TV, I would appreciate it if you could help me revive it in some way.
    because it makes no sense to me to put them in the trash because they have a wonderful picture

    below you have a picture and a video.!

    The cpu under the heatsink needs to be re-balled with leaded solder balls. You can heat up the cpu with a heat gun for about 45 seconds and see if it comes back on, but this will not fix the problem for very long. The cpu is on the mainboard (where all the inputs like HDMI are).

      it's true. tried 45 seconds per gun at max. and wola here are the pictures.. so you should do a reflow on the processor.

      this tv has a fantastic phenomenally beautiful picture. because I can't believe what I'm seeing..
      how come such an old tv has such a fantastic picture ???
      is this tv mini led?? because the ice fades away where there is blackness..
      behaves like the current new mini ice. which is fascinating

      bit now I have 1 more problem.. the motherboard from the 47 inch model does not work on the 55 inch model..
      the original 55 inch panel was smoked. I don't know why, but this chip got damaged
      see the picture..

      Is there any option to upgrade the motherboard from the 47LE8500 model to the 55LE8500???

      because if I had to put a TV in the trash, I'd rather throw away the 47-inch model..

        Does anyone know how to make the motherboard work on a 55 inch?

          My tv model is lg 55ub850v. My psu got 5 led light flashing and measured the 28 pins port on psu and the 24 pins port on mainboard, it had 3.5v and 12v+24v when pushed the button to turn on tv but the voltage on f2 fuse of t con s only 0.895v. And the backlight s totally off, so the led strips need to be replaced, right?

              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)...

              SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
              by JJAAMM
              This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

              Problem
              TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

              Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
              by TR103
              Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
              - sound and backlight, but no picture
              - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
              - it keeps rebooting
              - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
              - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

              Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
              by Mgiffune
              I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

              I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and
              ...
