    Is it possible to upgrade from a Vestel 17MB97 main board to a 17MB110 Main board?

    I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
    Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection needs to be on the exchanged main board, as there are around three different connections for the video connection on these main boards.
    So if anyone is in the know if it possible. I did read on another site that it was done but they were after newer firmware for there main board.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    With some exceptions it is possible. If you find the software/panel profile for the new configuration.
    I have done this many times. Panel VES490UNDL-2D-N01 ??.

      The panel is a VES480UNDL-2D-N01 which really I guess is the critical bit as I have found a cheap main board in Uk less than £10 delivered, but I would need the panel file for the 17MB110 which I assume is different from the 17MB97? Do you have that panel file available for this main board? Out of interest what's the exceptions generally as it would be useful to know for future reference so I can prevent making any mistakes in future? I guess they would be down to wireless card used (which I possibly may have to change for the original main boards config), the infra red connection and the remote control.
      See attached pictures of my board and the proposed board (it has identical layout with one extra hdmi, though this would not be an issue as plastic template can be cutout).
      Also just noticed the spacing of the 3.5mm connectors is slightly different though this wouldn't be an issue as could modify the plastic connector on the side.

        Change the motherboards and see how the image is. The power connector can be male/female.
        For the MB110 you also need a wifi module. Vestel motherboards use several remote control codes. I hope it matches what you have.
