    LG 50PC3D-UD Screen problems

    So I have a 50 inch LG which I have been trying to get going. I have replaced a bad power supply, a bad Y sus and Y buffers.

    Yet I am still getting problems which I thought were a bad Y Sustain board or buffers.

    Pictures attached, please help!

    Perhaps the replacement parts were faulty? It still looks like bad buffer board to me. Did you replace buffer then power up with old Y-sus?

      Thanks for the response. These buffer boards just came in the mail and I've only tried them with the replacement Y-sus and replacement power supply.

      I am thinking that your assessment on the replacement parts being bad may be accurate. I used to have a .pdf on my laptop which showed the different picture issues and what the issue was, but for the life of me I just can't find it on my computer.

        Can you try with just the bottom buffer unplugged?

          Yes, just tried, same results with bottom half of screen black.

            OK, does it behave differently with just the bottom buffer connected?

              with the top hanging loosely and disconnected from the metal tabs on the y-sus board it does the original symptoms. Does this mean the problem lay with the top buffer board?

                  I'm sorry, same as top 3 pictures. It acts the same as if both buffers are connected.

                    Can you upload a picture of each buffer?

                      Sorry these aren't the best images, if needs be I can go grab a light to shine on them while I take the picture.

                      1st picture is the top buffer. Actually after looking at the uploaded pictures, those are horrid. Getting the good camera instead of my phone.


                      Edit: 2nd picture is top, 3rd bottom.

                      Edit2: I've run diode mode from ground and get closed connection on 4 of the screen connectors one one pin each. P4, P5, P6, and P7. From what I read that means those 4 ICs are shot, correct?

                        Test diode mode across the two large gold pads; if there's a short, then yes, the ICs are bad and you probably got bad parts.

                          You are dead on, shows continuity of .024! 5 of the 6 ICs are showing shorts to ground as well. What are the chances that those would blow my replaced Y-Sus board?

                            They possibly have done damage to the Y-sus though due to your panel having a sustain output (glowing screen) you may have gotten away with it. So who sold you dud parts? The test is so easy to do, many sellers for some reason do not bother.

                              Got it from an ebay seller who has sold a lot of parts with good reviews. I don't know if putting the name here breaks the TOS, so I'll avoid that unless I'm certain it does not. My Sustain board came from Coppel, but they were out of buffer boards or I would have ordered it at the same time from them.

                                  New buffer added. Now I have the following problem..... Does it ever end?? lol....

                                  When the Input selection comes up on the screen it also gives a white box from top to bottom.

                                  Bad Control Board? If so how do I go about testing this?

                                    Hello,
                                    on this laptop hp g72 b52sf i have screen problems as you can see with the photo joined in attachments.
                                    the used graphic card is "intel hd graphics" and the id of the integrated screen is : "monitor/SEC3354".
                                    i verified the driver of the péripherals and they are ok. i verified the definition and settings of the graphic card and of the screen : definition 1600x900 and refreshment frequency :60hz. (they are the sames for the graphic card and the screen).
                                    i don't understand the reasons of the white stripe at the bottom of the screen below the task...

                                    Problem

                                    This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                                    Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                                    My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                                    This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                                    Hi,

                                    I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...

                                    • TV came with vertical bars and no image. Found faulty TVS on left buffer board. Also replaced T-Con (may have damaged the original while hot air removing components, board has slight warp) and have full image but few horizontal lines on the screen. Some of the lines appears to be 2 pixel tall while others are 1 pixel tall.
                                    • Disconnecting left and right buffer board potentially reveals problems on both sides with different signals (unless this T-Con require jumper like Samsung FB_TRDY1&3) Fault
