    Sony KDL32L3000 - No Picture, Sound or Lights

    Hi, this is my first post on this site. I have been learning about electronics for a few months but this is my first TV repair. I have read about the different parts of TV's, common repairs, testing power supplies etc.

    I have tested the power supply of this TV and it seems to be ok. I have read about similar problems with the KDL series of TV's and most of the time it was solved with a new main board. I am trying to narrow it down to the main board for sure but I haven't found conclusive evidence that my problem is definately the main board. Can anyone please help me fix this TV?

    Here are some pictures of the power supply and the main board. I'll post the T-Con too if you need it. Thank you.

      I have tested the voltages on the main connectors and inspected for bulged caps. My multimeter only tests to 400uf so I can't test most of the caps properly yet.

      Here's what I got on the main board connector CN6201:

      Hopefully the pins are in the right order, I checked into it but I didn't find the right diagram.

      Pin14:blank
      Pin11-13: 12dcv
      Pin6-10: 0dcv
      Pin4-5: 16.5dcv
      Pin3: 3.38dcv
      Pin2: 2.87dcv
      Pin1: 2.78dcv

      The other connector CN6202:

      Pin1-4: 24.9dcv
      Pin4-8: 0.02dcv

        Sorry I just realized through all of my searching I mixed up my model number.
        It's actually a KDL32L5000

          Any pictures of the inverter board and any labels on the connector. So far you have the 24VDC for the inverter, so now we need to find out if you have the BL_ON (or Inv_on) signal, and also the PWM or DIM signals.

            Sony XBR 49x900E - Sound and backlight on but no picture
            by DKWS89
            Hey Guys,

            So a few months ago my Sony XBR 49x900e TV screen stopped displaying the picture but the backlight comes on and I still get sound when I use the remote and navigate to certain apps. I haven't checked anything with the meter yet but started with ordering some replacement boards. I've tried replacing the BMKS board (used from ebay) and also completed the firmware upgrade based on Nicks TV repairs youtube video. I've also replaced the TCON (twice) and PIB.

            All of these changes have resulted in the same issue with no picture. I've also tried disconnecting the ribbons...

            Trying to Save - SONY BRAVIA KD-75X780F - No Picture BUT there’s sound
            by KYBOSH
            Previous owner said TV just went blank one day.
            They attempted to open the back panel and yanked the power connector off the power supply in the meantime.
            Easily fixed that and got the TV to turn on. Backlights come one with everything connected. Good Sign.
            The mainboard shows signs of life (red light on digital audio out is on) but that's about it. Good Sign.
            There is not blinking LED and the most importantly there is LED response and sound when I press the MENU button on remote control. GREAT Sign.

            I just downloaded the Sony KD-75X7800F Service Manual and...

            Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
            by TR103
            Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
            - sound and backlight, but no picture
            - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
            - it keeps rebooting
            - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
            - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
            - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

            - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

            Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
            by Mgiffune
            I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

            I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and
            ...

            Sony KD-43XE8005 with sound, backlight, no picture
            by ronni
            I have a Sony KD-43XE8005 with no picture on the TV when powered on. Audio and backlight work ok when powering on. Solid white indication light showing on front of tv bezel.

            When removing the left hand ribbon cable from the T-con board, a white image is displayed on that half of the screen and a black screen is shown on the right. If I gently rub the ribbon cable on the right an image or purple black bars appear. The cable doesnt appear damaged, and if swapped with the other ribbon cable the same flickering symptoms can be seen.

            Removing the LVDS cable results in...
