    Washed out negative image

    I have a Samsung 32" LCD TV, model LN32A330J1D, that has a washed out image that almost looks like the a negative of the picture. I found one fix for this system, which was to replace one of the IC chips on the Tcon board- well, I messed that up! Drag soldering in close space is not something I have mastered yet;-)

    Plan B- found a replacement really inexpensive ($23)- so replaced that and, while I had everything out, replaced the caps on the Power Board as well. Same issue- so I tortured and ruined the first Tcon board for nothing:-(

    I looked at the Mainboard more closely, and see what may be a damaged or burned component- but I am not sure what it is (yes, I am very new to this). It looks like, next to both of them, the marking on the board begins with the letter "L." From my Google search, that seems to indicate an Inductor, coil or bead. However, I cannot find anything that matches this- the only numbers are printed on top of each: 150 over 827

    They are both surface mounted with 4 connectors each, two to a side.

    Any thoughts on these are? Does the one look in bad shape? Pictures attached.

      Those components look OK. Can we have a picture of your t-con? Do not rule out the chance you got a defective t-con.

        Thanks, Tom66- will post pic of the tcon board later- it is one of those designs where you have to remove a few things to get to it.

        Regarding those components I posted the picture of earlier- for my information- what are they?

          They look like inductors. Most likely for the Class D audio output (to the loudspeakers.)

            Hisense 65R6E3 double-image / horizontal strips - TCON?
            by jason123
            Hello all. 3 years back, with your help, I replaced the LEDs on this TV. It's been working great. Yesterday, I turned it on (garage TV), and it has blurred horiz / vert lines as you see in photos. Definitely no physical hit or damage. Top 1/6th of the screen is perfect. Could it be main / TCON board? No tabs to cut on this model. Thank you...

            TCL 50S535 bad tcon or panel issue?
            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...

            Hitachi 32HAE2351 Vestel 17MB171 - Rotate Image
            Mainboard: VESTEL 17MB171 Chassis: VES315WNGB - 2D - N52
            The TV was stuck on the logo and I couldn't access the update menu.
            I couldn't find the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 and updated it with the Toshiba 32WA2063DG - Vestel 17MB171 firmware.
            The image result was good, but the image is inverted.
            The image rotation/mirror function doesn't exist in the Menu Server. I can't correct the image.
            Do you have the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 - Vestel 17MB171 motherboard or a solution to rotate the image in...

            Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
            by advant
            This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

            I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...
