      Tab-bond or bad panel. Melody has no relevance as can be turned off in user-settings.

        I have never fixed a tab bond is this something that takes a lot of time and is it worth doing?

          Tab-bonds are something you cannot fix. You can only Botch them using pads to force them to contact the glass of the panel or the PCB.

              My 52" Samsung and Sony were done on Dec 2012 and still going strong, may be I am the lucky one but then aging the TVs have been in the same spots ever since.

                I have one here and I can not find any problems with the panel. Seems to be to be the T-Con board. The people who had it said they had dropped it but I can't find any cracks. I swapped the two ribbon cables from the T-Con to the panel to see if that was it and no change. So basically I have one side not working at all. I also tested the circuit board on the panel and can't find any bad parts.

                I also pressed on the tab bonds and the picture had no change, they look perfect. No burn marks. All looks 100% Perfect on the panel.

                I have seen this before when the ribbon cable was backwards but not the case here. And I do not have a T-Con board to swap out.

                What do you think?

                  When I mess with the T-Con board the image changes. It seems there is a broken connection on the T-Con board. My friend says he has a couple so I am going to test with his.

                    Well I tried 2 other T-Con boards and I have the same problem so it must be the panel. Both other T-Con boards showed an image. Looks like it may be the connection where the ribbon cable from the T-Con boards goes. If I can't fix it then I am giving up on it. I will keep the TV for a test TV so I can test other boards in it. If I fix it I am not sure what I will do with it.

                        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...

                        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...

                        Samsung UN65TU8000 - Panel Issue [ hole in ribbon cable ]
                        by NWArkGuy
                        Well, I will be the first to admit that I screwed up...

                        In attempting to replace the backlight in a UN65TU8000, I made a hole through one of the ribbon cables between the board that runs along the bottom of the back of the TV and the panel. This lead to a between a 1/4 to 1/2 inch vertical stripe running the full height of the image.

                        I don't have the experience; personally, to solder a bridging wire for the paths that were cut. So, I have been on the hunt for other Samsung TV's of similar size.

                        I have 2 that I have found and have in my possession. ...

                        by KYBOSH
                        I came across a 50inch TU8000 that wouldnt start up properly (blinking stand-by light, backlights would cycle on and off).





                        When i opened it up and removed the power to the mainboard the backlights powered up and everything looked uniform.
                        When reconnected the mainboard but disconnected the flex cable to the panel i heard the TV startup with the intro sound.






                        Later I checked for shorts on the panel PCB boards but could not find anything.
                        When I took a look with the FLIR i noticed the 2 resistors...
