      We need MUCH better pictures of the whole back side of the TV so we can see how all the boards are connected and then good clear pictures of the board and where you took the Voltage measurement.

          Its not a real Hitachi but a rebadged Vestel shit. Uses VES420 Led backlit Lcd panel. You probably have a blown Led with in the panel. But you need better images so we can HELP you diagnose the fault.

              Re: Hitachi 42hxt12u

              Ive picked up one of these tvs as spares or repair and it turns out that the previous owner had attached the stand with wood screws!! It had taken out 2 traces of one of the ribbon cables that attaches the tcon board to the screen. I have seperated and jumpered the 2 damaged traces and im now getting continuity across them but still no picture. Backlight seems fine with no dark spots. Upon starting the tv up it goes through a cycle of blue and red lights and then stays on blue indicating the power supply is functional i think but im wondering if the wood screw has shorted the tcon board? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated cheers

                You need a new tcon have seen that before

                You need to use exact size screws, or this happens.

                    This happened last Saturday and today I finally had time this morning before I went to work to replace two non brand capacitors

                    I will let you be the judge weather or not these are bad or not according to the blue ESR meter that I am using

                    I am comparing them to a brand new one that I installed

                    The display came back on and the programming was not lost which I was surprised by I would have thought that when the display went blank that so did the memory as well

                    I going to let it run for several days before I remount back on the wall next to the...

                    Request: Firmware for Hitachi 42HXT12U (Vestel 17MB95M, VES420UNDL Panel)
                    by Bazilwrc164
                    Hi all,




                    I’m looking for a USB firmware file or EEPROM dump for a Hitachi 42HXT12U TV.

                    The mainboard is a Vestel 17MB95M, and the screen panel is VES420UNDL.




                    I recently replaced the mainboard with another 17MB95M, but it’s programmed for an LC420DUJ panel, and I’m getting no picture. I’d like to flash the correct firmware via USB or update the EEPROM if needed.




                    If anyone can provide:
                    • A working USB firmware file (like upgrade_loader.pkg or mb95_m.bin)
                    • Or a compatible EEPROM dump
                    ...

                    vostro comes up with back light but no picture
                    by koby058
                    Hi people!!
                    The owner said it showed bad picture once in a while (attached)
                    I see that there is back light but no picture.
                    I want to ask if it is possible to disable the NVIDIA GPU and use the intel one?

                    Also attached schematic and BDV

                    LG 47LA620V Same LED Failing Back Light Issues
                    by jdawg99
                    Hi All,

                    I need some help with this one please. I am attempting a repair on the backlight. TV turns on and flashes the LG logo so stripped it down and found one faulty LED. Replaced it and tested on an LED tester and the strip was good. Put it back onto the PSU and it lasted about 20 seconds before going out again. Same LED had blown. Changed it for another type of SMD one (same voltage) and it seemed fine. Put the TV back together but it was quite dim. Noticed it was in power save mode so turned it off and the screen was bright. Left it on for half an hour only to come back to the...
