    Sony Bravia kdl-42w705b sound and backlight but no picture

    As above guys, any common causes? Set turns on and backlight can be seen though screen stays black/blank.. T-con/main fault?
    Haven't actually got my hands on this one yet, hopefully collecting it tomorrow..

    Cheers, Sean

    You need to check the DCV between chassis GND and both ends of the SMD fuse on the T-CON board.

      DCV between chassis GND and both sides of t-con fuse is 12v.. Any ideas?

        Right, just connected this TV up to another set via the av out and low and behold there is a picture..

        So t-con or panel?

        Any way of testing the t-con further? It's getting 12v and the smd fuse is fine. I have another t-con ordered, but I wouldn't mind trying to repair this one if possible

          Hi there,

          i'm on same boat. There is a backlight, but screen remains blank. When power on just hear sound from tuner about 1 sec and then stops.
          No any red error codes from diode, except powered it up without (disconnected TCON cable) to get 5 red blinks.
          Already tested T-CON and getting 12v both sides of the fuse. So same situation - Main BAXL board or TCON? Any ideas?


          Thanks in advance

              Hi guys, did anyone manage to work out the fix for this? Could the LDVS cable cause this?

                old post but did you fix this tv? I have same problem.

                I replaced another T-con and still nothing,I think that panel is bad.

                  Trying to Save - SONY BRAVIA KD-75X780F - No Picture BUT there’s sound
                  by KYBOSH
                  Previous owner said TV just went blank one day.
                  They attempted to open the back panel and yanked the power connector off the power supply in the meantime.
                  Easily fixed that and got the TV to turn on. Backlights come one with everything connected. Good Sign.
                  The mainboard shows signs of life (red light on digital audio out is on) but that's about it. Good Sign.
                  There is not blinking LED and the most importantly there is LED response and sound when I press the MENU button on remote control. GREAT Sign.

                  I just downloaded the Sony KD-75X7800F Service Manual and...

                  Hello, Last week I bought the 50" Sony X80j tv everything was working fine, untill I plugged the tv in a ups power supply 650va the tv remote control became unresponsive and the TV became laggy after a while the picture quality isn't the same as before the tv seems less brighter and the picture is somehow blurry, people's faces don't look as natural as before, there is a mini orange-pink tint to the edge of people's faces especially in NETFLIX Dolby Vision like in One Piece ep1 Alvida skin tone, my intention was to protect the tv but something went wrong I checked the ups with a multimeter,...

                  Sony Bravia KDL-40v4100 has no picture but has power, backlight, and sound
                  by ryandesign
                  Hello! I would like to repair my father's Sony Bravia KDL-40v4100 LCD TV. It was in perfect working order the last time I used it before the pandemic. Then it sat plugged in but unused for a year or more. And now everything still works except that there is no picture on the screen. A relay can be heard to click when the power cable is connected. When the power button is pressed there is a green power LED and then the backlight turns on. If I connect an HDMI cable and play something with audio I can hear it through the speakers. The remote control buttons are recognized. There is just never anything...

                  Sony XBR 49x900E - Sound and backlight on but no picture
                  by DKWS89
                  Hey Guys,

                  So a few months ago my Sony XBR 49x900e TV screen stopped displaying the picture but the backlight comes on and I still get sound when I use the remote and navigate to certain apps. I haven't checked anything with the meter yet but started with ordering some replacement boards. I've tried replacing the BMKS board (used from ebay) and also completed the firmware upgrade based on Nicks TV repairs youtube video. I've also replaced the TCON (twice) and PIB.

                  All of these changes have resulted in the same issue with no picture. I've also tried disconnecting the ribbons...

                  Sony Bravia KD-50X690E NO SOUND
                  by x_orange90_x
                  Finally got my KD-50X690E up and running after replacing the power supply. Upon testing it I noticed the lack of sound from the speakers. At first I just ignored it thinking it was set to external speakers or some other kind of audio setting. However, after actually going into settings and looking around I see nothing of this sort. I looked it up on Google and apparently a lot of people have disappearing audio on a variety of Sony TVs 🙄. I'm going to see if a firmware or software update will resolve it, if available.

                  Has anyone else had this happen to their tv?
