      Hello,

      I am very new to all of this, but tried my hand at replacing the ribbon strip to the LED (it was clearly damaged/melted at the aluminum strip). While I successfully replaced the ribbon, I think I may have shorted the LED strip while doing so. I accidentally let the metal portion of my screwdriver (which I had covered the tip with electrical tape) hit the aluminum LED strip, there was a pop/flash and the TV went dead). Now, only the second half of the screen (the other LED strip) is lighting). Stupid/noob question, but is there any way to fix this without replacing the LED strip, or is it likely fried at this point? I would appreciate any insight.

      Thank you.

        Hi. My tv had the same problem. I took it apart and found the bad ribbon cable. Now, in my excitement, I accidentally pulled the cords from the power strip (by the power button, channel up/down buttons, volume buttons, etc).
        I've put the cable back on but now cannot get tv to power up.

        Help please? I'm not good at this stuff.
        A video to my email explaining what to do would be SO helpful.

          Sharp Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
          by scubacamper
          I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
          Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
          when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

          Razor Blade Steath 13" RZ09-01963 plugged in Not Charging (new battery)
          by Shinju
          Hey All!

          Long time forum member here with a problematic laptop issue!

          I got a RZ09-0196 with a bloated battery (still worked and charged fine) I pulled the old cell pack out and installed a new cell pack in its place.

          The laptop would not power on with the new battery installed without the power supply being plugged in.

          When booting into Win10 (all up to date BTW) I saw the battery icon with 49% plugged in not charging.

          TL;Dr version, old battery worked, charged but was bloated, installed a new non OEM replacement, laptop/windows...

          Samsung 55" TV - Boot loop but sometimes works fine - UE55MU6470U
          by torchzack
          Hi Team - just joined to see if anyone can offer some expertise in diagnosing an issue with a TV.

          I've done a few hours googling and youtubing but just seeing if anyone has any insight here. I got a 55" Samsung UE55MU6470U which seems to boot loop and then after 10 mins will boot, work for a few minutes, then turn off and repeat.

          Whilst it's on into the normal Samsung menu/boot screen it looks perfect - so I can't see there being any screen issues. I've seen lots of videos with taping across clock lines to diagnose which particular one may be an issue but i don't...

          Denon AVR 1908, High pitch noise on Surround back Left channel after long overhaul
          by karatzdi
          Hello,

          I know some might say... just buy another one. Sell it as parts..!

          So had this AMP for quite some time. Recently I saw light smoke coming out of the AMP. Had my fire extinguisher close by. Just kidding. Turned immediately all devices off from mains.
          Let things cool a bit, and opened up the amp device. I clearly saw on the main board which hosts the 5X amp (5.1), 3 10 ohms 1W resistors had their leads looking black, while the rest of the remaining 2 x 10 ohms were brownish as being installed from factory.

          Spent some time downloading the Service...

          Samsung UN70NU6900F no picture and no sound
          by jchang
          Hi all

          I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



          Symptom:
          No picture no sound.
          When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
          No sound at all.



          What I tried:
          1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...
