    Vizio Flex Cable / Address Bar Repair

    Vizio V755-G4 LED

    Doing backlight LED strips replace. All good till I decided to clean the screen with the address bar taped to screen.

    I accidentally dislodged the flex cable on the LED screen.

    I was choked after reading it was a pain to repair.

    Anyone out there have a solution for a layman without a bonding machine.

    I saw a square heating attachment to solder iron but have no idea where to get it.

    Any suggestions appreciated.

    I was so close to getting this damn thing assembled.

          It looks like one side came off clean but it tore the the other side ?

              Sorry for the bad pic. It tore off clean. The flex ribbon is in tact.

              After some reading, I have to use ACT remover (G-450 product) to remove the film on the traces.

              Does any know what I can use as a sustitute. Would acetone work as it is more readily available or any other

              Is this pic any better?

                  Soldering flex cable - tips & tricks
                  by Prott
                  Hello fellow badcappers,
                  I have to solder a MacBook (A1708) screen flex - one of the two data flexes got slightly torn (2 broken traces). I've seen some videos on youtube where people scrub the coating and then simply apply flux and solder to the exposed copper traces (and then run a jumper wire). However no matter what I try the copper does not take the solder at all - the more flux I add the more it actually stays only on the iron itself.

                  I am practicing on a spare flex cable and it's gettiing quite annoying - to a point I am actually thinking I have to be doing something...

                  Vizio E420VA 5v drops to 3v when power cable is connected
                  by SeaglassPearl
                  Folks, I have a Vizio flat screen that doesn't show any signs of life (and no orange vizio glow either).

                  I tested the voltages from the power board (at the connector) and I can see the 5V supply drops to 3V after the power cable is connected to the main board (5V supply reads as 5V when cable is disconnected from main board). All other rails (12V and 24V) are reading fine.

                  I looked for the usual bloated caps and saw none on either board and no other tell-tall signs (black marks, burned components, etc) on either side of both boards.

                  Given the 5V rail...

                  Problem

                  This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....
