Phillips 47PFL5704D screen 3/4 white

[drgears]

Have a Phillips 47PFL5704D,,,,the top 1 inch or so displays a perfect picture,,,the rest is different shades of grey,,some vertical lines,,,some horizontal lines.....Suspect a bonding issue with the screen,,,did the pressure testing around edges of screen with no distortion...just wondering if any one has seen this problem before I dissassemble this unit,,usually bonding issues that I have seen run the full vertical of the screen and like I said the top 1 inch or so is perfect thankx gbaum

Might want to try a replacement T-con first as they are relatively cheap.

I know this is an old post. I have the same TV doing the same thing. Drgears what did you do to fix yours.

I also know this is an old post, but I was wondering if this was ever fixed as i have the same problem.

did you remove 1 of the ribbon cables and get the same result that he does? don't you love it when someone starts a thread but then never says whether or not they got it fix or what fixed it? if i was you i would take a shot at replacing the t-con as they aren't that expensive. make sure you replace it with the exact numbers on the board and not just by the tv model cause they may vary.

If you remove one ribbon and the picture shows up, then you have a shorted panel.
