    Ribbon Cables

    Just thought I'd start a wee thread on these for future reference on loose ribbon cables.

    If you have a loose ribbon cable what tactics do you use to get a more secure connection?

      T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
      by Tr0ll
      Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

      The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

      Original T-con:
      Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

      First replacement T-con:

      I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

      Sharp Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
      by scubacamper
      I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
      Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
      when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

      Quick question about the ribbon
      by Rubenlily
      Hey,

      So I have horizontal lines on my TV and I'm trying to trouble shoot. My question about the ribbon is:

      When I disconnect one ribbon from the t-con I should get half picture working and other half black or something like that correct? But when I disconnect the ribbon on one side I just get a dark screen and it doesn't matter what side I disconnect. I just get the dark screen. No half working, no one half black and the other one left. Sound is playing from the TV so it's obviously on and when both sides are connected I have the picture with the horizontal lines...

      Reference Nvidia GTX 980 ti - looking for a new shroud
      by speaktorob
      So a while back, to deal with the fan noise of the old blower style shrouds on the reference cards, I chucked it and installed the monster that is a Raijintek MORPHEUS 8069, with a couple Noctuas on it. Did the job but quite unwieldy tbh.

      Anyone know which boards would have a compatible shroud for it? I know the EVGA used the reference board but wondering if any other manufacturers did. I want to put something sensible back on it, but I'm having a hard time getting hold of even a faulty reference board for a reasonable price.

      Sharp LC-70LE650U vertical black and red bars
      by ninja_zx11
      Hi all,

      70" LED TV is Sharp LC-70LE650U.

      Initial problem was horizontal lines and slow motion lurrs on the bottom left of the screen. So I removed both the left and right ribbon cables from the T-con board and tried to clean it with alcohol and when I put it back, this issue appeared. I tried carefully reinserting the ribbon bon cables but same thing. I checked the traces of the ribbon cables with magnifying glass and everything looks good. I cleaned the small jumper ribbon cable on the left side of the screen which cured the horizontal line and slow motion blurs...
