    42pfl7422d/37 dark spot on screen

    Hello, first post to this site. Looks like lots of great info. I'm a little overwhelmed with all the info. I'm thinking that my issue is a back light issue. But wanted to see if you guys might be able to confirm this for me. I'm going to open up the set some time this week and look for some bad caps. Is there anything else I should check while it's open?

    Here are the screen shots..

    It turns on fine. But then the picture gets this black area that seems to float around. A good smack to the back of the set usually clears it up. As the TV warms up, it seems fine..

    Thanks in advance!

    BTW, for those of you trying to figure out what I"m watching, it was a commercial, and then the movie "The Losers" LOL

      Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
      by Ryan.man
      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...

      iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
      by smic717394
      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...

      Samsung UE55JU6800K half screen dark
      by Chrissygizmo
      Hello everyone, I’ve just been given a Samsung UE55JU6800K smart tv as it had white spots on the screen due to the led lenses falling off. After refitting them & putting the tv back together I thought it was a nice easy fix for a free bedroom tv , then I tried it before screwing the back into place. I realised that the right side of the screen was darker than the other side, I removed the screen again as I thought the backlights had failed but they are fine.
      I put the screen back in place & turned it back on . The screen seemed to be ok again but different screens on the same...

      Vizio TV M50-C1 reboot cycle and static on screen
      by spice_disc
      I'm currently trying to diagnose and fix my Vizio TV (Model M50-C1). I've tried a number of different basic solutions, but I'm trying to determine if my issue is currently a failing panel, T-Con board, or main board (or something else entirely) and whether or not it is worth my time to fix it. Details of the issue and what I've tried are below as well as why I think it is either a bad panel, T-Con board, or main board.

      The Issue: The TV will be on and working fine but after the TV is on for ~5-10 minutes the screen will freeze (with sound continuing) until the TV reboots itself. While...

      ipad pro 9.7" blew a SMD component while replacing the screen 🤦‍♂️
      by ipatch
      i have an ipad pro 9.7" (1st gen) A1674 where i replaced the screen, but never attached the screen to the frame/chassis (glued down) due to the ipad being previously dropped so the new screen would never fit in the frame properly. so i need flex/bend the chassis to eventually fix the new screen in properly. so i temporarily just applied blue tape around the edges of the screen to keep it in place. when watching videos with the ipad the screen started flicker, so i though maybe the new quasi cheap amz screen i purchased was going out. so i disconnected then reconnected with power still on,...
