    Samsung LE37B530P7W no sound or picture

    Hi guys

    I got this tv that won't turn on
    Problem is next: when plugged in stdby led is on, but when try to turn it on with remote led blinks and apparently it turns on but there's nothing on screen, neither there is samsung chime. I can see that set is responding on remote commands because led is blinking when some of keys is applied.

    Measured voltages on PS and they are all present when interconnect cable between PS and MB is disconnected (backlight turns on too, so that's not the problem).
    When MB connected this goes bad: E_PWM (5V) goes to 1.77V, 5V_DET goes to 0 and INV_ON (3.3V) goes to 0. Other voltages (5.1V, 13V, PS) are ok in both ways (with cable connected or disconnected). Tried disconnecting t-con to isolate it but it didn't change anything so i assume problem is somwhere on MB.
    Checked voltage regulators:
    IC 2001 (1117-33): 0 3.3 5.23
    IC 2004 (1117): 0.62 1.87 3.28
    IC 2005 (78M09A): 12.9 0 8.87
    IC 5003 (1117): 3.72 4.96 8.85
    They appear ok?

    Resistance on 5V_DET to GND is 0.88kohm, but without schematic hard to check it is it right

    MB code is BN41-01165A or BN94-03132P, but unfortunately couldnt find schematic for it...

    Could it be that BGA CPU is causing this voltages to go that bad?


    On pictures cables are loose, i just put them to take pictures, measurements are taken with properly seated cables

    Not heard this one before - are you jump starting it with resistors when the main board is disconnected?

    Sounds like a short on the main but could be the Main Chip sending garbled signals.
    The Voltage regulators do seem good which board are they on? main?

    I dont suppose the cable between the boards can be plugged upside down?

    Test the cable for shorts between the pins and for end to end conductivety?

      Thanks for replying

      No, i am not jump starting anything, i think that when you disconnect mainboard from the PS the backlight should come on, as it does.
      Cable can't be plugged upside down, and tested it for continuity and shorts and everything is at it should be.
      Those voltage regulators are on the mainboard.

        I thought it was usual that apart from the 5v standby there would be no other
        voltages until the main board sent a signal to power up the power supply fully
        via PSON and to turn on the back lights via BLON . This cant happen without the main being connected?
        Anyway if its not like that then its not, so all I can suggest is try it with the button board and audio disconnected. then try it with the lvds disconnected
        see if the tcon is pulling it down.

          Well i really can't say that is the way it should be without main connected, but IRC there are few examples on forum were people disconnected main and backlight came on
          Tried allready with disconnecting speakers, button board and t-con from mainboard, but same thing is happening, those few voltages gets messed up

            Reflowed CPU and that bringed it back to life, worked almost a day, and then went in previous state again.
            I'll try to reball it, if fail, i'll purchase another mainboard

                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...
