    RCA 46LA55R120Q no picture, sound and back-light work

    i have a RCA 46" 1080p LCD tv model number 46LA55R120Q. The screen doesn't show anything but the sound works and the back-light seems to work. I checked the boards and there seem to be no apparent damage.

    i am having trouble pinpointing which component isn't functioning.

    thanks

    Since you have power backlight and sound your fault is most likely on the tcon. You can test to see if the fuse on the tcon is good and has about12 volts on both sides.

          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...

          UN65TU700DF picture and sound but no backlight. BL tests ok but repl. PSU didnt fix!
          by triplefour
          this tv is throwing me for a loop. do samsung tvs no longer have the backlight self test feature built into the power supply?
          i tested the backlight with my LED tester and it lights up both strips. one of them reads 100v and the other reads 63.7v.
          unplugged mainboard from power supply but left backlight plugged in, and then plugged psu wall power in. expected to see backlights light up but see nothing.
          according to how ive diagnosed in the past, this would almost always be a bad power supply. replacement power supply was cheap like 20$ from ebay. but still i get not even...

          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

          Sony XBR 49x900E - Sound and backlight on but no picture
          by DKWS89
          Hey Guys,

          So a few months ago my Sony XBR 49x900e TV screen stopped displaying the picture but the backlight comes on and I still get sound when I use the remote and navigate to certain apps. I haven't checked anything with the meter yet but started with ordering some replacement boards. I've tried replacing the BMKS board (used from ebay) and also completed the firmware upgrade based on Nicks TV repairs youtube video. I've also replaced the TCON (twice) and PIB.

          All of these changes have resulted in the same issue with no picture. I've also tried disconnecting the ribbons...
