Re: Led24970dvdfh

What are the boards inside the set? Vestel, or another OEM?

Re: Led24970dvdfh

Hmmm exactly the same parts i fixed the other day with the shorted diodes

Vestel 17IPS61-2 Psu
17MB62-2.6 Mainboard

i tried this but i cant get into service mode:

To turn off the burn-in mode, please follow these instructions:
1. Press the "M" button on the remote to obtain the on-screen menu.
2. Press the numbers 4 7 2 5 in quick succession to enter service mode.
3. Highlight Option 1 using the Down arrow on your remote control.
4. Once highlighted, press the Right arrow to access Option 1.
5. Highlight Burn-in Mode using the Down arrow on your remote control.
6. Now press the Right arrow to turn off Burn-in mode.
7. When Burn-in mode is set to No, press OK on the remote control to exit the service mode.

They're everywhere, these Vestel junkers.

I was about to suggest something along those lines. Second suggestion is to try updating the firmware.

If you have a similar set, you can copy the firmware off it:

This will then allow you to install the firmware on the new TV.

Please upload the firmware you copy off, if you do, as it will help others.

There's no dedicated EEPROM on these sets you could try resetting unfortunately.

Re: Led24970dvdfh

The only other sets i have are the 19 inch and 22 inch JMB tvs with the same parts but i dont think the firmware would be the same ?
i can get into the menu when i turn the tv on but 20 secs later the screen colours start changing and you can not access the menu any more

Re: Led24970dvdfh

Do you have any access to 4-7-2-5 MENU or MENU 4-7-2-5?
The other sets: May work IF -- they both have same panel (Samsung = Samsung, LG = LG, etc.), they are both 1080p and they both have DVD players.

Re: Led24970dvdfh

no firstly the JMB are not dvd players so that wont work and i tried 4-7-2-5 MENU or MENU 4-7-2-5 but you only have roughly 10-15 secs before the screen flashes so what we looking at maybe only option replacement mainboard ?

Re: Led24970dvdfh

Unfortunately that may be the only option, 10-15 seconds though. if you're fast, I reckon you could reach the reset option. Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

You could also try NVRAM download on THIS set, then re-install firmware from the download, that might reset the software. It is worth a shot if you're going to buy a new board - can't break it any further.

I seem to recall a Samsung that had this issue on this forum and the guy tried for 1/2 hour before he managed to get it. (Would shut off 10 seconds after power on.) Practice makes perfect......

tom would this work ?

at the moment im still waiting for the tv to reset so i can access the menu still stuck on colours when i turn it on

Re: Led24970dvdfh

Is your product code "6750407"?
There's little harm in trying I suppose, as you can always update the firmware on these with button presses on the TV... although do not interrupt it, as you could damage the bootloader, which would "brick" the TV.

Re: Led24970dvdfh

dam i got into service mode but for some reason its in read only mode so you cant change anything anyway

[tom66]

Re: Led24970dvdfh

Try menu 7935 instead.

[sordids999]

Re: Led24970dvdfh

cheers m8 ill try it but the menu option has gone from 10-15 secs to 3 secs so ill leave it off a while and try in the morning

[sordids999]

Re: Led24970dvdfh

ok 7935 just takes you just into another menu not really helpful but got back into service menu chose option 1 but everything is in read only mode it seems you cant change nothing
oh well i think ill buy a replacement board

thanks anyway
