Simply re-positioning that strip that is above the LED strip made it go away. So all is well here now. Thanks again for all the help.

Good repair and thanks for the follow-up.

Sorry, I couldn't help. I was at Disneyland in Orlando.
The last problem it happened to me too. I have cut to much, from the side of the ribbon and then the ribbon it's off to one side.
Usually I remove the panel completely(if you have to cut to much from the ribbon's length) and I re-position the two ribbons, to reach to the LED strips.

I powered up, the lights came on. I'm looking at it from backside with the unit face down on my work desk. I put it all back together and start to program channels to find another problem. LOL

I'm wondering if maybe I can loosen up a screw that maybe I over tightened for the clip that holds the panel in.

Either that, or maybe I didn't put the ribbon into the connector quite right. I will try a little later.


Thanks for all who chipped in. Any suggestions for this issue? Anyone correct this before?

FROM POST #19 -

The darkness in the picture was caused by the ribbon strip not completely connecting at the connector. I had to take this apart again to redo the tape repair as well as reposition the ribbon in the connector. I'm satisfied with the results so far. I may just keep this set (46) and sell my Samsung (42)

You have to be careful, when trimming the width of the ribbon. If you trim to much, it can slide sideways and make wrong contact or not at all.
