    Davi.p Ok your way ( remove lvds cable from MB, jumper a 12v from PSB to tcon fuse, turn on and see full screen colours for the time to eliminate doubts.. ) The tv came on dark blue screen.

    The other way that it was not responsive was Diah's was in post #14, when plugged in, I could do anything and no self test as you say.

        Hey bohaboha, TV is as my last post. I don't know enough of these abbreviated terms on what to test or even when they use the full name of part, I don't know what that is on the TV. I've reached out to Nicks TV repair ( the one who has the YouTube channel ) and when I explained the issue and copy and pasted much of what was discussed here, they were perplexed at the issue. Most of what I read, here and other sites, many people seem to think it's the MB so I think I am just going to send it in to Nick for repair. If they find nothing wrong with it, I'll try the Tcon and then after that if it's still not working, I'll throw away the TV.

        Unless you have some thoughts?

          Well at least Nick can verify the mainboard one way or another, this tv is direct lit so it might be worth the time and expense. If it were edge lit I would surely not bother with it.

            Ya, I tossed around different ideas, buy a used MB and try it, if it doesn't work, buy Tcon and try, but ultimately it was the fact that Nicks guys told me that they ( if they find issue ) they repair the issue and also other known to go bad parts. Seems more logical that route than to buy a used one, and if it does work, get a little time from it before it goes bad because of age.

            I really do wish I understood more of what you guys spoke, but even if it came down to the EMMC being bad, I have no way of fixing that component. When I do have the end result. I will be back to post to give clarity on the issue.

              I believe Nick gives a warranty also.

                    UH, not everyone is a tv tech or wants to be so if someone wants to change out boards it's their prerogative. Ever stop to think that TIME is also money??? Anyone with reasonable intelligence realizes that time is even more valuable than money as it can not be replaced.

                        Well I heard from Nicks today and they said that the MB was in perfect working order. They felt that with the MB functional and from what I told them was going on, they thought it was either the LED strips ( which is definitely is not because I can see them light up or the panel itself has failed. I did write back and ask if in any way it could be the Tcon but I havent heard back yet. It would really suck that the panel fails and there is no fix..

                            Well as usual, someone is just running off at the mouth, I wonder who Diah is the one who said to test screen in post #14, this wannabe P is just echoing that FACT. Even if you can't fix it, you have a mainboard that has been passed by a professional tech. If you can not fix the tv you can sell the mainboard, doubt very much that Nicks fee will be anywhere near that so you did not hurt yourself and you don't have to wonder about the mainboard any more. This is obvious but evidently SOMEONE, p, doesn't understand it, people don't work for free, if there's any pro techs out there that want to spend an hour testing my boards for free, by ALL means let me know.

                              So do DIAH'S screen test, that will tell the tale. I don't assume anything, I will say that imo sonys have MUCH less screen issues than most other brands.

                                Also I will say that I have never seen or even read about a sony screen being bad with these symptoms you are having and that covers the last 11 years I've been here and plenty more.

                                  As to post #72, I have never seen this person post anything first...that was the correct solution.

                                      Diah's post #14 - "take 12V from the pin 25 T-CON VCC and put it on the F fuse on the T-con
                                      put it in wall and check what you will have on the screen.."

                                      I tried this back before I sent it in Nicks. This is right about the time someone was impatient with a novice so I said fuck it and sent it in.

                                      Post New Members - please post your introductions here - The other way that it was not responsive was Diah's was in post #14, when plugged in, I could do anything and no self test as you say. (though it should read couldnt do anything). Meaning the screen never even turned on. Ill try it again when I receive the MB back from Nicks.

                                      Since they found nothing wrong with the MB, it was only $30 dollars to test it plus shipping. I probably couldve found someone local, but since they have quite the following on Youtube and many videos to support what they do, I chose that route.

                                      So once I get the MB back in and I run Diahs test in #14, if I get nothing on the screen, does that tell the panel has failed or the Tcon? Or neither really?

                                      Also, nomoresonys Id like to say thanks for your patience.

                                        No problem, I'm far from an expert, I trust Diah, not that other mouth. I hate guessing, if it fails that test it might be a panel problem but I think the chances are good it's something else. The issue seems to be intermittent, some guesses are bad/dirty/loose/oxidized connection of one of the cables or a bad cable | bad solder joints on a connector | bad solder joint on bottom of powerboard | maybe just something slightly wrong with powerboard, marginal cap, resistor out of spec. intermittent issues are really tough monkeys.

                                          take out the 2 ribbon cable between T-CON and Panel. upload photos of the ends of each cable pins with high resolution... you may have cut / short at pins contact

                                            by Ryan.man
                                            Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                                            My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                                            This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                                            Hello again everyone,

                                            This is my latest mission, to try getting this Sony tv back to normal working order…

                                            I've only just got it today, when you power it up everything is as should be, in fact it works perfectly for a few minutes then the screen starts getting horizontal lines on & eventually the full screen goes back, I will upload photos of the problem & also some photos of the board etc. You might notice that I'm busy trying the tape method, I'm not sure exactly where the clock lines are so I'm just guessing & hoping for the best lol . I've already tried...

                                            A new main board and power supply was installed on my TV last night, purchased the parts at ShopJimmy. I had no power before installing both parts. Now the TV powers on and I hear music as it cycles through a white-red-green-blue screen. I was thinking it may be a firmware mismatch with the parts however I am skeptical as to plugging in a USB stick with the newest firmware on it since I cannot do any user interaction since all I see is colors on the screen, will the firmware start and complete on its own once the USB is inserted or does it require user input? Someone told me it is in Purity Check...
