    LG 50PZ550-UA No Picture, Ready to Troubleshoot...

    Hey gang, second post here for me.

    I just bought a broken LG 50PZ550-UA. Haven't even tested it yet and all that was said is that "it turns on but will not hold power, the display starts a little dim an then goes completely dark and there's no sound either and the red LED stays energized". This happened during a thunder storm where in power was lost (not a local lightning strike), short power loss where the TV never came back but all other components plugged into the surge protector did (cable set top box, nintendo wii, blu ray player).

    I found two threads here about this model with similar problem and it seems some members are well adept at troubleshooting steps down to the Vin/out and particular boards but the threads just stopped with discussion and I didn't want to try and pick up where they left off.

    I'm patient here as I have a Samsung 42" 720p that is my working unit so I will take my time. I am comfortable with a multi meter and replacing surface mount components.

    I just chatted with LG as well and they are sending a service manual too.

    So I hope someone can get me started here on the first few steps

    SVC CODE: 50PZ550-UA.AUSLLUR

    Thanks,
    Roy

    T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
    by Tr0ll
    Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

    The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

    Original T-con:
    Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

    First replacement T-con:

    I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

    Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
    by TR103
    Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
    - sound and backlight, but no picture
    - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
    - it keeps rebooting
    - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
    - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
    - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

    - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

    Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
    by Mgiffune
    I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

    I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and

    Philips 58PUS7805/12 showed no picture; after T-Con replacement, shows halo
    by Rauni
    Hello, this is my first post on this forum, and my first attempted to repair a TV.

    My Philips 58PUS7805/12 stopped working recently. It is not that old, about 5 years. We were on a trip for a few days and when we came back, it had stopped working out of a blue (Perhaps our house was hit by a lightning strike? Don't know.)

    Read from a guide that I should test if the screen shows picture with one of the T-Con cables disconnected. Did that, it showed perfect picture (first on left, later on right side).

    Read also that we should test what happens if we...
