    Emerson TV Problem Please Help

    I got a free tv today!!! Only problem is....its broken It had a lot of vertical lines going up and down the screen. I did some research and found Jscreenfix. It eliminated a lot of the lines but the darker lines are still there e.g. blue, black, dark green. Her are some pics

    It looks like tab bonding on the right side of the LCD panel are bad.

      What is a tab bonding?

        It means the panel is junk. The bonded ribbon cable coming from the glass panel has come loose from the neighboring PCB.

            The panel is the LCD itself; it makes up the majority of the cost of the TV.

            It is comprised of glass and thin film transistors, among other components.

            When the tab bonds fail the signals going to the thin film transistors get lost and you get black lines.

            I do not know how a "JScreenfix" program could even attempt to fix this. No amount of flashing pixels will get the pixels back, especially if they are missing the signal in the first place. Seems like a bit of nonsense to me!

              This may or may not work but take your hand and tap kind of hard but not too hard on the plastic (bezel) Case on the top side and bottom on the front side of the TV where the lines are located, sometimes this will make the tab bonds re-connect but it may not last. there is a video on youtube that shows a method of disassembling by removing the front plastic bezel, and then the metal frame around the LCD Panel and using foam tape on each side of the ribbon cables, when applied it will add pressure to the tabs to make them re-connect, but no guarantees it will last. here's the link to the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=purk_SyiT44

                      Is it mainly just one tab bond that's bad? I think it has to have just the right amount of pressure when the plastic bezel is put back in place to hold it.

                        Looks similar to what my Acer TravelMate 4200 laptop screen does.

                        (Which with mine, appears to be bad connector contact and I can make all vertical lines go away by flexing it a certain way.)

                            Hello again everyone,

                            This is my latest mission, to try getting this Sony tv back to normal working order…

                            I've only just got it today, when you power it up everything is as should be, in fact it works perfectly for a few minutes then the screen starts getting horizontal lines on & eventually the full screen goes back, I will upload photos of the problem & also some photos of the board etc. You might notice that I'm busy trying the tape method, I'm not sure exactly where the clock lines are so I'm just guessing & hoping for the best lol . I've already tried...

                            Problem with LG Plasma 60PM6700 - Random power downs
                            by theone111
                            I have an LG Plasma TV 60PM6700 for the past ~12 years.

                            In the last ~3-4 months I have been having some issues.
                            1. Problem: It started with random picture disappearing (sound still worked).
                              Frequency: Happened about once a week.
                              Solution: Had to turn off TV wait a few seconds before turning it on again.
                            2. Problem: Then it got worse and the TV started to shut down and when turning on the no picture just sound.
                              Frequency: Happened about once a week.
                              Solution: Had to turn off TV wait about 10-20 seconds and turn it on again to solve.
                            3. Problem: TV shuts down

                            The laptop was turned off because the MOSFET was not transmitting voltage. After checking it turned out that the gate pin on the MOSFET was the problem, because it was producing an inappropriate voltage. and it was discovered that the problem was with the Think engine, so I decided to reprint each pin, and finally the mosfet could work properly. However, there is another problem, even though the voltage has been supplied to the laptop, it still won't turn on, there isn't even an LED indicator. After double...

                            by DrvLikHell
                            Hello again! I have come back for some wisdom and hopefully for some guidance with this problem I'm having. The TV is a 4k 55" Sharp LC-55p6050u and the problem is every other line of the bottom 32 lines flickers out, comes mostly back, then flickers out again, and repeats this continually. The lines on the bottom right of the screen go out completely while the lines on the bottom left are affected so slightly that it's almost impossible to see it. There is a gradual gradient from appearing almost perfectly fine on the bottom left, to an obvious problem on the bottom right.

                            The...
