    Samsung UN70TU6980FXZA no sound no picture but does have backlights

    When I turn tv on, the backlights come on but there is no sound or picture. I have read that these tv's have problems with the panels going bad but the "no sound" has me questioning if the main board is bad. Is there a way to troubleshoot the main board to determine if that is the problem?

      The tv will go on to blue screen and off with remote and the red light blinks when I hit other buttons, but it doesnt seem to go into standbye with remote. I tried the reset --Info:menu:mute:power ---but it did nothing. Its actually not blue screen, just backlight on.

        It's not rebooting correct?

        I have one just like this, I found a shorted cap on the buffer board (which made 6 others appear shorted) and after I replaced it, still no picture. I put it to the side and haven't looked at it since for some reason. Was about to crack this back open soon also..

        I also didn't have sound either.

        Take a look on buffer boards for some shorted caps.

          It boots up or powers on but only the backlights go on. Theres no sound or picture. Are you suggesting checking caps on the panel boards?

              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 ‘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 ‘new' Tcon board this time, and

              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...

              Samsung QN75Q6DRA, No Picture, Has BL, and Sound
              by Dodgethis
              Hello all,

              This is my first post, but long term lurker on the form learning as much as possible about these TV's. I was given this TV as due to a power outage of constant On/off of power to TV. The TV originally would just click on and off (Typical Reboot Cycle). I opened the back of the TV, and troubleshooted by taking the 96 pin LVDS off one at a time to see if I had a picture on either side. I finally fixed the reboot cycle by finding the error on the left side of the screen off connector CN 1301, and the TV would stay on. Further troubleshooting led me to the driver boards where...
