    Phillips 42pfl3603d/f7 No Picture

    Just picked up a Phillips 42pfl3603d/f7. Backlights come on but no picture, 12v to TCon both sides of fuse. Any thoughts main board?

      I would check the VCC and VCC1.8 test points on the t-con. VCC is likely 3.3V.

        VCC is .890VDC and VCC1.8 is 0

            Both of these are low. Are these voltages supplied by the regulator on the TCON itself?

              They are supplied by that small square chip to the right of the larger LG Philips chip.
              Next, check AVDD; this is across the two small capacitors marked C111, C112 near the bottom middle right of the board.

                    Ok I replaced the TCON with a "good" one off of ebay. I now have a picture but it has horizontal flickers as seen in the picture. Most of the research I did still points to a TCON. Do you think this TCON is bad as well?

                      Possibly a bad board... That's problem with eBay

                        Ordered a different TCON same problem. Could a bad main board cause this?

                          Possibly. A panel problem could also do so.

                            VIZIO E70-E3 Half picture with half TCON
                            by Fly_Among_Stars
                            Hi,
                            I have a VIZIO E70-E3.
                            Symptoms: Black screen, no picture, but LED backlights are working.
                            I probed the power board and voltages are as listed on the board.
                            Main board appears fine, too.
                            I believe the problem is either a bad T-CON board, or connection to LCD, or bad LCD.
                            There are two separate ribbon cables feeding the LCD.
                            If both are connected, the screen is black.

                            If only the ribbon cable that feeds the right side of the screen (when viewed from the front) is disconnected, the left side of the screen shows picture and...

                            by shelby5041
                            hi
                            i have a samsung lcd tv

                            it powers on with sound and backlight but no picture

                            all voltages from PS are good 12v 3.3v and 5v

                            whats odd is that at the tcon i tested voltage across the fuse on the tcon and i get 0v

                            i figured main board issue..so i ordered a used main board....when i put replacement main board in i still have same issue

                            no 12v at the tcon fuse

                            i disconnect the panel ribbon cables to rule out any panel issues and i still have no 12v at the tcon fuse

                            the odds of having 2...

                            by x_orange90_x
                            Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

                            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)...

                            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...
