    Can you completely remove the back of the TV and take straight shot pictures of the whole back side of the TV, the power supply/LED driver board (both sides of the board).
    That power supply/LED driver board looks familiar.
    I would say bad LEDs like this one:

      Re: proscan PLDED3996A-C2 NO PICTURE POWERS ON

      I tested them red wires on the connector. They all read 20.7 volts. I think them wires are going to the leds? And shouldnt they read 24volts? Also i took picture of this diode. The board looks really brown burned up right under them 2 big diodes, the picture doesnt show it so good but it looks more burnt then shown in picture. But im thinking if them 20 volts is correct then i proly has bad led lights

        Did you check both diodes yet? They are connected in parallel.
        The 20.7VDC readings on the red wires are ref to the chassis GND, right?

          Yes bud the readings are done as you said, and also not sure what diodes connected in parallel mean but they both read 252 and checked them other way they say 1

            If they are in parallel they are supposed to share current equally between them. At least they don't look shorted . If you want to be absolutely sure, lift one terminal and measure again.

              I just repaired a proscan PLDED3273A-E, that has a different power board but the circuit may be similar. The voltage from the power supply for the led circuit was around 25-30 volts off the diodes, it then goes through the coil and is boosted to around 70 volts, I suspect that boost circuit is not working, if it is the coil should be getting quite warm. if its not getting warm check the boost circuit.
              This video has a circuit diagram which may be usefull https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrfSmtzFjCc

                : I have a PROSCAN PLDED3996A-C2 S/N A1305095130002210. I have sound and no picture. I can see the menu when I shine a flashlight on the screen. I cannot determine what part I need to replace, but its either the power board or LED controller board. I don't believe I have an inverter for the LED or its built into the main board. What part do I need? Model No TH390LK01-ACW1

                  It is more than likely bad LEDs

                      you need to remove the screen and test the leds to find which is bad

                            both of you are from Cincinnati? I am from canton area. I have led strips for this model available. what you need to do is test each led with your meter on diode mode. scrap the paint off on each side of the led and test each one they will light up if good just a little from the power on your meter. if they don't light up then its no good, if you need help message me

                                Just for data - I am taking one of these tv's to recycling today because of this same problem. The picture just vanished one day though the sound was good and everything else seemed to be working fine (channels would change/ we could turn it on and off). When I found it was possibly a "video inverter" and that this could be diagnosed by looking for the faintest hint of picture on the screen, I could in fact see a hint of movement when I looked at a severe angle. I took the thing apart after watching a YouTube tutorial that showed how simple it was to pop out an old video inverter and pop in a new one thinking that of course I could order a card and do THAT. Not so simple.

                                As I said, I'm dropping one of these off to the recycling place today. I wasn't ever even able to find out where the crummy "video inverter" was!

                                  Any suggestions? The power supply does not show any signs of burned components..

                                    We also need you to upload good clear pictures of the whole back side of the TV showing ALL the boards and then the pictures of the power supply board top and bottom side.

                                      It's been about 20 years i graduated from electronics school but unfortunately i never worked in the field, went straight to I.T.

                                      I tested the 2 diodes which are in parallel and the 110v input from the connectors on the PCB..I wiggle the PCB back and forth while off and the tv works, i wiggle it back some more and it stops..would be indicator of bad solder, but i redid most of them..

                                      I can post pictures of the power supply back and front but nothing seems darkened or unusual

                                          by Tynan Dill
                                          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                          Assuming...

                                          Hi, this is my personal laptop, which the original board (lets call it Board A) blew up PU8700 (TPS51486), making a hole on the board, i had left the laptop at my desk one day with the battery fully charged and didn't touch it for a week, but when i tried to turn it on it didn't
                                          Thought the battery was dead, so i plugged in the charger then tried to power on, the power LED blinked once, charged LED still orange, unplugged the charger, plugged in again and I noticed the "magic smoke" smell, so i unplugged the charger, removed the back cover and saw the blown IC (the "magic...

                                          Hi all!
                                          I've recently run into an issue with my Samsung UN55H8000AF LED TV displaying no image. I've done quite a bit of research in terms of what could be wrong with it. Below are the steps I've taken prior to reaching out here for some assistance:

                                          1. I've tried replacing the T-Con board (BN95-01594A), twice and have still experienced the same issue with all the boards I've tested with.
                                          2. I've tried to remove one side of the ribbon cable that goes from the T-Con board to the panel and still not getting any image on left or right side.
                                          3. I've checked voltages...

                                          Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?

                                          Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

                                          Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:

                                          Looking for help with a Viewsonic VP230mb where the backlight comes on only momentarily
                                          by lostone
                                          Hello, I came here after finding some similar questions asked on other monitors and hope someone here can help me get an ancient Viewsonic VP230mp (23" 4:3 LCD) back to working condition.

                                          First a little background, I have a background in computer and electrical engineering, and I'm smart enough to know I know nothing about LCD displays and how they work. For this topic I'm as green as they come.
                                          When the display is turned on the viewsonic logo displays in the uppper left for 2 seconds then the screen goes black, the power LED is green (on) and when a computer is connected...
