    Element ELDFT406 " upside down picture"

    Hello good folks, today I received EEPROM-ELDFT406-28H1403A V.1 from my favorite place, Shop Jimmy. The reason I purchased the item was because I had an issue where about ten seconds after you switch inputs the set would shut off. You were able to turn it back on if you want, but if you were in any input except tv it would shut back off. Using a $10 antenna on the set, I was able the run the set for 24 hours without it shutting off until I switched the input to HDMI.

    Ok, I installed the EEPROM and turned it on and my display was 180 out. I was curious if it would shut off if I switched inputs. I connected the cheap antenna and two DVD players and a chrome cast on the HDMI inputs. I just ran it for 4 hours cycling inputs and it never shut off.

    Now then, I'm aware of a service function that allows you to rotate the screen for diagnostics on my Panasonics, but I know next to nothing about this set and to make things worse, I don't have the original remote. I'm a fish out of the water and I have every reason to believe that the part is good and there is a way to correct my problem.

    Thank you all for your time.

    Hi have you looked here for service codes https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=24809
    It sounds like it is a setting if that does not help try to find if you can program a universal remote for a service code for your TV
    I know LG TVs have 180 flip function for those that want to install the TV upside down

        I emailed shop jimmy again so I'm still waiting. I have a lg remote from another tv and it turns on the Element and I got into service mode but when I get there I can't go up or down in the menu. I have to use the volume button to control the up or down function when selecting inputs. So I try using the volume buttons on the remote while in service to go up or down and takes me out of service mode and adjusts the volume. I'm still searching for the correct remote or a good universal

          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)...

          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...

          Element E4AA70R black screen shows picture
          by EazyBone
          On this TV I got black screen with with picture.

          Tested the LEDs and they work.

          Had a hunch that this was similar to a ONN tv thread I found and wanted to post about this to possibly help someone else.

          The capacitor by the LEDs is bulging, 450v 10 uf. I suspect this is the cause. Will post results after replacing the capacitor. You could just replace power board as well I assume.

          Will post results when capacitor arrives...

          LC-52D85UN Software / Picture upside down
          by kleito
          Howdie
          I just replaced a TCon board on this TV, and now my Picture is upsidedown.
          I do not have a remote.Is there maybe another way to change this, like a software update?( which i can never find, probably due to the age of the unit)
          I cannot find a "flip"setting in the regular set up of the TV either
          Any help is appreciated.
          TIA
