    Insignia 47 LCD (NS-LCD47HD-09)

    Problem:
    After watching TV for a random amount of minutes the picture fades out rapidly and I have to turn the TV off/on to see picture again. FADE/POWER/REPEAT.

    Tests:
    Backlight IS still on.
    No picture exists with flashlight check.
    Sound works fine whilst picture is absent.
    Purchased MB ... still fades out.
    Purchased PSU Board .. still fades out.
    When picture fades, menus (nor anything) are visible.
    After PWR 1/0, TV works immediately until Fade/PWR/RPT.

    Hypothesis:
    T-Con
    Backlight Inverter (But just cant see how this is the issue)
    Need new cables between MB and TCON/Inverters

    Can anyone confirm a solution before I purchase ANOTHER friggin' part!?!?!

    The tcon is about all thats left. Have you tried to remove the back of the tv and place a fan blowing on the boards to see if it works longer?

        If it works, meaning the picture stays on indefinitely, then the next step would to somehow get air to hit the tcon board only. That would indicate that something on that board is overheating and causing it to shut down.

            Holy Skid Marks, Batman!!!

            Check this out .. I pulled off the TCON shell and look what I found...

            BURN MARKS!

            Running TV now with shell off / back of TV shell off / Fan pointed at TCON.

            Started at 10:30 will see how long it lasts.

                Used T-CON is about $70.

                  Taking off the shell seemed to do the trick ... Has been running for two hours now. Thanks Mr. Bill and Budm for the assist. I will let it run overnight but so far this has been running longer than I have ever had it. Go figure ... After $220 in parts ... the fix was free!!!!

                    The metal plate is used to heatsink the main processor. What is likely happening is some component under the heatsink doesn't like it. Without a heatsink the processor will probably overheat and fail.

                    I have several "well used" T-con boards (working ones) and they all show discolouring around the shield, it's not unusual.

                        Thanks all ... I will get a new TCON but for now the removal of the outer plate is keeping it cool enough to function as designed.

                          You could try using a heatsink from an old motherboard to do the job.

                            Just checking in to say that this solution totally worked for me, and I now have a brand-new(ish) 47" Insignia to show for it! Thanks!!

                              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...

                              Insignia NS-50DR620NA18 w/ large vertical lines & no picture
                              by srs
                              I'm not sure what to do next and came here since y'all helped me fix a 50" plasma TV back in 2014, which is still working!

                              A friend gave me an Insignia NS-50DR620NA18 50" TV that suddenly developed large vertical lines on it. He said he had no idea what might have caused it and has replaced it with a larger TV. He was going to throw it away.

                              I did not notice any bulged or leaking caps on any board, the voltages produced by the power supply match the voltage that the pins are marked. The backlight leds are working. I have tried cleaning the ribbon cables...

                              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)...

                              When i power on the tv a "please wait" image appears then goes away then nothing after that only sound

                              When i was removing the back cover i heard a rattle.

                              Removed the metal plate and the heat sink was off (see pic)
                              would this cause a no picture/image issue?

                              What is used to put back the heat sink

                              Trash picked this tv from a local business, had a garbage image and would fade to black within second then cut off. It would get shorter and shorter every time.

                              Narrowed it down to the right side of the panel by unplugging half the t con
                              One side had a great picture the other was black and distorted still.

                              Down to the buffer boards… found yet another set of two esd diode arrays. One leg had a 60 ohm short to ground and would get lower the more attempts made to turn the tv on.
