    Samsung LN32A450C1D: Bad T-Con or panel?

    I have a Samsung LN32A450C1DXZA with lines and duplicate images.

    A side issue I had was that I powered on the TV when it had been left out and condensation formed on it. There was a short from a jumper to a capacitor (this seems to be a common problem with this power supply. I saw one in worse shape on another forum.) I fixed the damaged jumper and the TV still powers on. I was planning on replacing the bulged capacitors but now I dont know if it is worth it.

    I opened up the panel and pushed on the flex ribbon cables but nothing changed. I am reading 11.75V at the T-CON board coming in from the main board. Is this too low for the T-Con board?

    Considering there is about a 1" strip on the very bottom of the TV that works correctly, it makes me think that the panel is the one that is bad since I don't see how a bad T-Con board can only fail on part of the image.

    kind of hard to tell, but caps are pretty reasonable and not too hard to put in, I would try that.

      Looks like a bad screen. The varistor would not cause the display problem

        that one solder joint there looks a little funky, maybe touch it up a little.

          LG 82UN8570AUD ~ TCON or PANEL?
          by kca
          Hello all ~

          Hope this finds you well. This LG 82UN8570AUD (April 2021 model) 4K UHD television has full audio capabilities but video is compromised / problematic.

          When I picked up this large LG tv it had a full black screen upon startup. Previous owner said it just went black one day. No popping sound or anything else of note.

          I got the display to work by taping off several traces of the right-hand side ribbon cable on the TCON that leads from TCON to PANEL. However, despite dozens and dozens of attempts to find the right combination / range of traces taped...

          TCL 50S535 bad tcon or panel issue?
          by x_orange90_x
          Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

          TCL 43S423 TCON OR PANEL FAULTY???
          by netgearnetgear
          Good day, I have a TCL TV: Model 43s423. After turning ON the TV, the ROKU TV logo appears with fine lines over the whole screen, then after a while there are vertical bands in the middle of the screen top to bottom and the TV tries to update its firmware but I do not have the remote to connect it to my new network connection. Also the Power ON light blinks 2 times in quick succession. When I remove the ribbon on the right of the tcon board the left side of the screen shows but with fine lines. If I remove the left side ribbon and connect the right side ribbon the whole screen is blank with...

          Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
          by advant
          This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

          I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...
