    Sony KDL-46S4100 No Video (With backlight and sound)

    Hello All,

    I am working on a KDL-46S4100 and have hit a wall. When I first started working on this tv, it had power, but no backlight, video or sound. All voltage coming from the power supply was correct, but there was not voltage at the t-con board, so I replaced the "A" board (main board).

    After replacing the A board, the tv powered on with backlight and sound, but no video. There is voltage going to the t-con and to the panel, also after running the tv for a while, the t-con is heating up like its processing. So I thought the next logical step was to replace the t-con. Well, I replaced it, but I still have no video.

    If anyone has a suggestion on what to look for next I would really appreciate it!

    Thanks,

    Brian

      Hi.

      The new main board is not compatible with the old board ,different firmware. No upgrades for this model. Go by the serial number of the TV .

      Regards
      Adrian

          I just worked on one of these and it was the panel, the tab bond to the lcd screen was bad.

              Did you do a search on ShopJimmy to confirm that you have a compatible board for your Sony based on the serial number as Adrian mentioned? I have the firmware and installation instructions for this TV if you eventually need them: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...highlight=sony

              One of the links I mentioned in the linked thread is broken, but I saved the files to my PC.

                  I have a KDL - 46S4100 with a serial number 17060xx and I can not find a board that is compatable with that high of a serial number. I purchased a new A board but it is not working. It just shows a blank screen. Tried to flash it but it will not take an update.

                  Original problem was that all of the HDMI's quit working on the old board.

                      How many tabs are on the t con that go to the panel? If ther is two then in hook one at a time and see if you get a picture on one of them. If you get it one one of them but not the other then it's the panel.

                          Only one wire coming from tcon board.
                          Tv works fine with old board just no hdmi.

                              A2442 - No sound over internal speakers and no video playback
                              by soeren
                              I am facing a strange issue, I don't have any sound over my internal MacBook speakers and also the video won't start. If I change to my head speaker or via HDMI (speaker on my external Display) the sound works over the head speaker or Display and also the video starts (ex. youtube).

                              All happened after the battery ran out of power overall several days when I was on vacation.

                              I tried to remove the battery and then reconnected the battery, and then the MacBook Pro 14 2021 won't accept any power from my power socket. Then I removed one speaker, connected again the battery...

                              Sony 8K XBR-75Z8H White Screen Vertical Bars Tcon Code. Help Needed🙏
                              by Daren87
                              Hello everyone,

                              I've recently been given a Sony 8k Z8H. It's got a white screen with two vertical black bars. At times it's given me the 5 blink Tcon code. Testing voltage on the Tcon I can see some low or missing voltage. I've done a basic visual check of cables and the COF. Not seeing anything obvious. The original Tcon seemed to have good caps until turning it over. On the bottom I found maybe 10 caps with both sides of the caps shorting to ground. I thought ok these caps and likely other components on the Tcon are shorted so let's try a replacement Tcon. I just received the...

                              Onkyo HT-R390 no sound output, video output ok
                              by FrancescoV
                              Good morning everyone,
                              I'm trying to repair an onkyo ht-r390 that has no sound output, despite the volume being at maximum, the rest seems to work; the video output signal (coming from an hdmi input) is present, but the audio is absent. Similar situation if I send an audio signal from any input I have no output.

                              The firmware reported is the following:
                              M:1.00/11107BLP
                              D:?.??/????????
                              O:1.00/11107AL

                              The DSP firmware given the question marks seems corrupt.

                              On the BCHDM-0678 - 25140678 - QPWBCHDM0678A0 board the chip that usually seems...

                              Sony KD-55X9000F TCON Issue
                              by thelankanguy
                              The TV shows a black screen with no image.
                              TCON ribbon connectors were disconnected individually for image and there was no half image even.
                              Later both ribbons were disconnected and TCON voltages were tested.
                              12V, 3.3V, 1.8V were seen present but VONE signal reads 0V.
                              There is also a short to ground in this circled inductor.
                              Is this a TCON issue or something else ?...

                              Sony KD-55AG9 TCON?
                              by bbrain
                              Hi,

                              I have this problem with my Sony 55' AG9.
                              It flashes 4x.
                              I have found the service manual, and seems it is the TCON.

                              Before I buy a TCON can someone check the vid?



                              Thanks in advance!...
