    Polariod FLM-2601 No picture sometimes

    I have this polariod which original problem was no picture at all just sound.

    Took it apart and noticed two bulged caps, ESR checked all remaining and they all had high ESR so went ahead and replaced them all.

    TV now turns on and works great, however I've noticed maybe once every three times upon power up the backlights flash then turn off, if you turn set off and back on they come on and stay on fine.

    TV is a pain to take apart, lots of screws so currently it's all back together so can't provide pictures. Was wondering if this might be a capacitor problem that I missed? Only one I didn't replace was big one on primary side.

    I'm having the same issue. Replaced bulged caps and still have to power off and back on to get backlights to work 2 out of 3 times.

    Anyone know what it could be?

      Can you both get some Pictures of the Main boards and power supplies so that we can have a look and see if A: we can spot anything and B: ask you to point out a few things...

      I have fixed a few Poloroids where the Voltage Regulator for the LVDS had gone bad... but wont know until i see the board design

        My tv is currently assembled. If I get around to it I will. This thing is a pain to disassemble.

        What were the symptoms of a bad regulator for the LVDS? Curious how you figured that out too. Thanks

          The set would intermittently lose picture when it had warmed up.... and then power down.... If i left it for about 1-2 mins it would power up again fine until warm, then start the same process....

          I tested the V Reg with the Upside down can of Air Duster as a Freeze spray when it was warm and started to be intermittent before it powered down... This made it work ok while i was spraying it but then a few mins later it would go again...

          Replaced the Voltage regulator and it worked fine....

          next time you take it apart... I know they are a pain... the poloroids all are.... If you can take pics and post, i should be able to point out the Reg that i replaced...

            T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
            by Tr0ll
            Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

            The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

            Original T-con:
            Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

            First replacement T-con:

            I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

            SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
            by JJAAMM
            This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

            Problem
            TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

            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 β€˜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 β€˜new' Tcon board this time, and
            ...

            by CyberPhoenix
            Hello, Last week I bought the 50" Sony X80j tv everything was working fine, untill I plugged the tv in a ups power supply 650va the tv remote control became unresponsive and the TV became laggy after a while the picture quality isn't the same as before the tv seems less brighter and the picture is somehow blurry, people's faces don't look as natural as before, there is a mini orange-pink tint to the edge of people's faces especially in NETFLIX Dolby Vision like in One Piece ep1 Alvida skin tone, my intention was to protect the tv but something went wrong I checked the ups with a multimeter,...
