    SONY KDL-52W5150 No Picture, Sound and Menu are Ok

    Hi Guys,

    Need some help with my only SONY KDL-52W5150 TV. The TV work till yesterday just fine. Today I tried to watch a movie but no picture on the screen. The sound is fine and menu works fine too. Was reading the Martin's guide, and looks like I have a bad T-con, not really sure if that is the problem.
    I have 2 devices connected to my tv: computer (hdmi1) and comcast box (hdmi2). Both of them have no picture. I like to fix things and for me not a problem to open the tv and do something with it.

      After 5 hours of trying it start working again. Don't understand the reason but I hope it will work 3 more years.

          In your case, I would reset (remove and replace) all connectors. Inside and out. And check for bad solder joints on the boards.

                  If your menus work the Tcon is fine. This is a mainboard fault. Do you have a snowy picture on tuner mode ptr can you get a picture with composite video (yellow red white connectors) or component inputs? If so your HDMI codec processor is failing or failed on the mainboard.

                  Did I leave the soldering iron on?

                      Sony XBR 49x900E - Sound and backlight on but no picture
                      by DKWS89
                      Hey Guys,

                      So a few months ago my Sony XBR 49x900e TV screen stopped displaying the picture but the backlight comes on and I still get sound when I use the remote and navigate to certain apps. I haven't checked anything with the meter yet but started with ordering some replacement boards. I've tried replacing the BMKS board (used from ebay) and also completed the firmware upgrade based on Nicks TV repairs youtube video. I've also replaced the TCON (twice) and PIB.

                      All of these changes have resulted in the same issue with no picture. I've also tried disconnecting the ribbons...

                      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...

                      Sony KD-43XE8005 with sound, backlight, no picture
                      by ronni
                      I have a Sony KD-43XE8005 with no picture on the TV when powered on. Audio and backlight work ok when powering on. Solid white indication light showing on front of tv bezel.

                      When removing the left hand ribbon cable from the T-con board, a white image is displayed on that half of the screen and a black screen is shown on the right. If I gently rub the ribbon cable on the right an image or purple black bars appear. The cable doesnt appear damaged, and if swapped with the other ribbon cable the same flickering symptoms can be seen.

                      Removing the LVDS cable results in...

                      Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
                      by Ierwin
                      Hello everyone,
                      Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
                      The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
                      He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
                      I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
                      Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

                      Samsung UN70NU6900F no picture and no sound
                      by jchang
                      Hi all

                      I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



                      Symptom:
                      No picture no sound.
                      When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
                      No sound at all.



                      What I tried:
                      1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...
