    Samsung LE40C659 goes ultrabright

    I have a Samsung LE40C659 that functions normally for about 5 minutes but then all of a sudden goes ultrabright, you can hardly see anything because of the brightness.
    It stays like this for maybe 30 minutes then goes back to normal for a short while, then it's ultrabright again.
    I have checked voltages but everything seems normal.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Do you mean washed out pictures? How about upload he screen shot and pictures of the T-CON board?
    It sounds like typical failed GAMMA Voltages.
