Back to this tv

I got a led tester
this is what I get
Pins 1-3:145 volts
Pins 5-6:149 volts
Pins 8-9: 149 volts
Pins 11-12: 28 volts

if I did this correctly it looks like some of the led strips are shorted

Yes appears that's correct. I would just recheck it a couple times, I've made user error doing this B4 but looks like it's shorted yes. Did you try a flashlight to the screen after plugging it in? Can you get the light now?

[Jason616]

I believe the power supply board is working correctly but with the led strip being defective it shuts the power supply board down . So I’m going to replace the led strips and see if it works or troubleshoot it more

[EazyBone]

Well good luck with that. Those screens are massive and not easy to move, hope you got 2 people and a lot of suctions!

Well I guess it got overlooked . Is there anyway around this ? One of the screen drivers failed and that’s why the person got rid of the tv . I remember another tv I had where 1 of the screen drivers blew and I cut the drivers off 1 side of the screen and the tv worked for a couple years . Is there away around this being bad or does it need a new panel ?

Unfortunately It’s trash. Needs a new panel
