    Re: Sony Bravia KDL-52W5150 - Are These Symptoms Of A Bad T-Con?

    I have been watching it for two weeks now, it replaced my Sony 46" (KDL-46WL140) that had bad T-CON, the 46" has better picture than this 52".

      As a follow up, I ended up following the procedure here (http://www.avsforum.com/t/1173106/kd...esh-all-inputs) to put a bumper in the frame to put some pressure on the top left most tab on the TV. This has corrected the blur and other issues. I didn't have to replace either of the boards, so this $2 fix was pretty sweet. If for some reason in the future this fix fails, I'll let you know how long it lasted

          Nobody has any idea what this could be? It's the panel?

            Sony 8K XBR-75Z8H White Screen Vertical Bars Tcon Code. Help Needed🙏
            by Daren87
            Hello everyone,

            I've recently been given a Sony 8k Z8H. It's got a white screen with two vertical black bars. At times it's given me the 5 blink Tcon code. Testing voltage on the Tcon I can see some low or missing voltage. I've done a basic visual check of cables and the COF. Not seeing anything obvious. The original Tcon seemed to have good caps until turning it over. On the bottom I found maybe 10 caps with both sides of the caps shorting to ground. I thought ok these caps and likely other components on the Tcon are shorted so let's try a replacement Tcon. I just received the...

            Sony KD-70X690E Bravia; Bad TCON? Bad panel?
            by swrb898
            What's wrong with my TV: the TCON, the panel, or something else? I'm stuck.

            Problem:

            Last week, my Sony KD-70X690E 70" stopped displaying a picture. The TV powers on, and the back lights power on. However, the TV doesn't seem to boot up. I say this because the SONY splash-screen logo does not display, nor does any picture display, nor can I invoke a menu by pressing "Menu" on the remote. Other than back-light bleed, the screen is black.

            My troubleshooting got me this far:

            With the left-hand TCON to bottom-board ribbon cable...

            Sony KD-75XF9005 grey Picture but Sound. TCON or panel?
            by iglitare
            Hi,

            i want to repair a Sony KD-75XF9005 TV that initially only showed a grey picture.
            Backlight seems to work, Sound (Setup menu after reset) works.
            If i dissconnect the left FFC cable from TCON to panel i have half a screen on the right. If left cable is connected always only the grey screen.
            Interchanged the cables, its always only the right side that is working. Always grey if left side is connected.
            With my small knowledge i would think at least the cables are good.

            Can this happen because of a bad tcon board?
            Or is it always a bad/shorted...

            Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 that will not power on
            by PopsCaps
            I have a Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 that will not power on. The indicator flashes red 3 times.
            I do not hear any sound and I cannot see any backlight.
            I have tried disconnecting every cable on each board one at a time to see if anything changes.
            The only change is when I disconnect AC-DET cable on the Power Supply board or on the other end if I unplug the CN7009 connection on the B-Board and try to power on the TV the indicator will stay on solid green until I power off.
            My friend ordered another used power supply board but it is also doing the red indicator flash 3 times...

            LG 82UN8570AUD ~ TCON or PANEL?
            by kca
            Hello all ~

            Hope this finds you well. This LG 82UN8570AUD (April 2021 model) 4K UHD television has full audio capabilities but video is compromised / problematic.

            When I picked up this large LG tv it had a full black screen upon startup. Previous owner said it just went black one day. No popping sound or anything else of note.

            I got the display to work by taping off several traces of the right-hand side ribbon cable on the TCON that leads from TCON to PANEL. However, despite dozens and dozens of attempts to find the right combination / range of traces taped...
