    Sharp Aquos LED LC-70LE857U No Picture Help

    Hi All -
    A guy I know gave me this 70" Sharp LED Aquos LC-70LE857U. It has no picture, sound, or backlight and has two slow and five fast blinks of the little light on power up. As far as I know, I am third person to attempt fixing this set. Previously, the power supply and main board have been replaced. From researching, I have learned that it could be a bad panel display, T-Con board, LED boards, or could still be a bad supply or main board.

    Let's assume for starters that the supply and main board are okay.

    After reading some threads on this site, I tried disconnecting the display ribbons from the T-Con board, and did the "force power up" (Vol -, CH +, Power) while plugging in the set. This allowed the backlight to power up for the first time that I have seen.

    After reconnecting the display cables and powering up again, I got the same two slow, five fast blinks.

    I do not see anything on the display with a flashlight.

    So, do you think I have a bad T-Con board or Panel Display? (or something else?)

    Thanks!

    You need to find out if you do have 12VPNL DCV or not first.
    Read this thread:

    No 12VDC to run the T-CON then there will be no pcitures on the screen and then you will get and error because of the missing Voltage.

      2-5 is panel failure on most of these sets.
      Read THIS with regards to a potential fix: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=48477
      However the longevity and reliability of this fix cannot be established.
      It is a fair operation and cannot be reversed after being applied.
      However so far it has fixed 2 or 3 of these LE7xx sets...

        Also fixes e701i-a3 70 inch vizios using a Sharp lcd panel. I'm still going strong after nearly 3 weeks of hard use...

        Luckily sharp implemented an error shutdown to prevent tcon damage. However vizio did not implement this overcurrent technology into thier mainboard. So tcon failure is imminent!

        This should be a sticky! Lol

        Did I leave the soldering iron on?

          Thanks for the reply - just so I'm clear then, I need to measure between pins 2 and 3 on the KIA378Rxx LDO and check for 12V? This drives the T-CON board.

            Wow! That's a long thread! After I verify my 12V, I'll dive in to this and see if any of the drivers have released the magic smoke. I was really hoping I would not have to pull this thing apart!

              Is this your power supply board?
              http://www.shopjimmy.com/sharp-runtk...led-board.htm#

              Just look at the PD connector pin 1 and 2 (they are electrically tied together) to see if you have 12VDC output, if you do then move on to the T-CON and the LCD panel.

                Yes. Agreed. The LCD panel modification is a last resort. Do what Budm said check to make sure that you're getting 12 volts panel voltage to the tcon. If so its "operation" time..

                If it's truly the panel. I see a trend here
                Did I leave the soldering iron on?

                  VIZIO E70-E3 Half picture with half TCON
                  by Fly_Among_Stars
                  Hi,
                  I have a VIZIO E70-E3.
                  Symptoms: Black screen, no picture, but LED backlights are working.
                  I probed the power board and voltages are as listed on the board.
                  Main board appears fine, too.
                  I believe the problem is either a bad T-CON board, or connection to LCD, or bad LCD.
                  There are two separate ribbon cables feeding the LCD.
                  If both are connected, the screen is black.

                  If only the ribbon cable that feeds the right side of the screen (when viewed from the front) is disconnected, the left side of the screen shows picture and...

                  Sharp Aquos LC-40UG7252E LCD TV burn in?
                  by jonah1024
                  Hello!

                  I'm a few days old into this TV screens repair universe so please bear with me.

                  Recently, and all of a sudden my 40” 4K Sharp Aquos LCD TV turned on with colors all smudged in some places on the screen that remain like that even without any kind of video source. I do have image but the colors are smudged/tinted/ washed out in patches as per defects. This to me looks similar to burn in but I’m shore this is not an OLED.

                  - I did the classic unplug and hold power button to discharge the caps but it didn't help.
                  - I did a factory reset as well...

                  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 LCD TV no picture backlight on no 12v at tcon
                  by shelby5041
                  hi
                  i have a samsung lcd tv

                  it powers on with sound and backlight but no picture

                  all voltages from PS are good 12v 3.3v and 5v

                  whats odd is that at the tcon i tested voltage across the fuse on the tcon and i get 0v

                  i figured main board issue..so i ordered a used main board....when i put replacement main board in i still have same issue

                  no 12v at the tcon fuse

                  i disconnect the panel ribbon cables to rule out any panel issues and i still have no 12v at the tcon fuse

                  the odds of having 2...

                  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...
