    Mitsubishi Projection TV Loses Sync

    I have a Mitsubishi WS-65613 TV that has developed a problem. After the TV is on for a while it will suddenly appear to lose horizontal sync. Actually I could be wrong on that. The pitcture just becomes a mess. So far we have been able to fix the problem by turning the TV off and right back on again. We don't even have to wait for anything to cool down.

    That right there has me a little puzzled. It seems problems often get better as they warm up.

    Once the picture goes bad it doesn't matter which input I put the TV on.

    This is not the commong cap problem on the DM board that causes the blinking light issue. I fixed that a number of years ago. I replaced the 4 caps and it has been good until now.

    I have looked things over and so far I don't see any obvious bulging or leaking capacitors.

    As my test equipment is limited, I'm having trouble getting a heading on this problem. I'm not sure if I'm chasing the power supply issue or something on the signal board. Or, one of the other several boards.

    I do have the schematics.

    I have fixed several TV's in my life, but I admit I'm very much a rookie. Does anybody have some suggestions?

      I had that problem on some CRT TVs and were caused by bad caps (with leakage but looking fine even if they aren't lytics) on horizontal section on TV (those near the flyback and h transistor).

          I didn't look much in the deflection end of the frame. It sounds like I need to check out the horizontal down there.

          I managed to get a picture of what I'm seeing. Definitly a horizontal scroll. It took a few attempts with a slower exposure to capture it.

          Thanks.

              I'd still check for bad caps on the power supply, in the horizontal drive section (the circuitry connected to the primary of the horizontal drive transformer), and caps on the horizontal output with an ESR meter.

              I have had plenty of TVs with bad caps that showed no external signs of failure.

              An Orion made set comes to mind it had a bunch of low temperature 85c Rubycons with high ESR causing all kinds of problems on the set. The caps were fine but the rated temperature was too low they got replaced with 105c Panasonics.

                  It did turn out to be caps on the horizontal output section. I pulled checked and replaced 5 caps. The only one that really tested bad was C5A10 which is a 100uf cap right next to a large heat sink and transistor.

                      Samsung QN70Q6DTA Ghost or horizontal lines after tape fix horizontal line
                      by Ihandyrepair
                      Hi guys

                      I just started fixing 4k TV few months ago. so I am still learning a lot
                      I got this tv from friend complaint is ghosting or horizontal lines on image.

                      never saw the original symptom but I took the tv back home. the funny part is that after bringing to home, the tv worked fine no issue for 3 weeks.
                      then it started to show the ghosting white image.
                      I started using the tape method, but this tv does not have a T con board and it has only 1 ribbon cable from main board to the tv panel.
                      it has 3 thin small boards at the bottom of the...

                      Samsung UE70TU7100 - flickering horizontal lines
                      by mrsith
                      Hello again good souls.

                      Got an UE70TU7100. The TV starts up just fine, but right hand side of the screen is horizontal striped a bit, and there are some flickering horizontal lines on the whole length of the screen. I've seen similar static horizontal lines sometimes, when applying the cut tape method and covering wrong number of pins.

                      I've cleaned every connector with ipa, tried cut tape method on main LVDS ribbon as well as small ribbons, connecting the panel boards at the bottom. Tried squeezing the bezel and playing around COFs, but no reaction at all. COFs and...

                      TCL 55S425 few horizontal lines, potential failure on both side of panel/buffer board
                      by howardc64
                      All left and right refers to looking from rear of TV (or looking from front with TV upside down)
                      • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
                      • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault

                      Physically bending the T-Con board creates horizontal dotted lines on OLED55CXPUA
                      by fredtred
                      Hello!
                      I have been trying to solve this issue the past 12 months to no avail. I have been a lurker here during that time but finally decided to post my problem and see if anybody knows a solution.

                      Problem
                      My tv (OLED55CXPUA) has an issue where it displays horizonal lines of dotted artifacts.

                      (See Attachment 1)

                      Self Diagnosing
                      After a very long troubleshooting period I traced the issue to the T-Con board. If I gently flexed/bend the board I could make the display go from GOOD to BAD and vice versa. I have ruled out the connectors/wires...

                      PS4 CUH-2115B Slim All Controllers Do Not Sync By Bluetooth or USB
                      by grimacelord
                      Hello. I have a PS4 Slim model number CUH-2115B that is having a problem with syncing any controller by USB and Bluetooth. Every controller I have tried will not sync, and I know that the controllers will sync fine to another PS4, so it's not a controller problem. I have tried 5 different USB cables and 3 different controllers and none of them sync to this PS4, but will on others.

                      The USB ports on the PS4 is delivering 5V power and does charge the controllers (I checked with an USB ammeter).

                      The controllers also do not work in Safe Mode. I understand that if they...
