Samsung TV Snow?

[dragsterhund]

Hey everyone. I'm having a problem with my Samsung HPT5065X/XAA

Here is a video of the problem:

You can see at the beginning that the picture slowly turns from black to the image, and there is what I can best describe as noise, (snow)?, on the screen.

Any ideas what that may be?

Did some troubleshooting... it's definitely not the HDMI cable. Any ideas?

Re: Samsung TV Snow?

my guess would be TCON board issue but im pretty new here so all i can suggest is to take the back off, and try reseat the connections on the TCON board. also people will disconnect one of the ribbon cables going from the TCON board to the panel and see which half is causing the problem? i still dont really understand that test to be honest but i know its something you can do that you might figure something out from...

take pictures of the board layout

and then take close up pictures of each board
