    No. Lots of corrosion on the LCD metal frame, I wonder if it has corroded connection at the tab bondings.

        The brown horizontal steak on the top of the picture. Or is that the back ground panel?

            That just looks like a cracked / impact damaged LCD

                Yeah, I didn't see the tv for my self, but I would say a cracked Lcd also.
                The seller is not telling all the truth, I don't want to make 100Km For free, just to come back with my hands empty.

                  You can see the fracture with in the Lcd glass, right above the lines you can see there is a dip and the lc has been moved.

                    As Reecey says , above the 2 lines its cracked. Dont buy the tv unless you need it for parts.
                    I only repair Panasonic plasma tv's! Currently owning a TX-P55VT50 and still searching for a ZT60!

                      Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
                      by acedogblast
                      This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

                      There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

                      ASRock B650M PRO RS - BIOS CHIP 25Q256JW BLOCKED BY STATUS REGISTERS
                      by DynaxSC
                      Hi

                      I have a very strange issue with the BIOS SPI chip of an ASRock B650M PRO RS motherboard.
                      The SPI chip is an Winbond 25Q256JWEQ model (1V8).
                      The motherbaord doas not POST - it lits only CPU and DRAM EZ Debug Leds, and stays that way forever.
                      The Flashback function of the motherbaord is also not working, despite all instructions followed correctly - I'm 100% sure of this.

                      I have then desoldered the chip, backupped the contents, and tried to earease the chip in order to program stock image, but the chip is locked by status registers SREG2 (TB) and SREG6...

                      A: The programmer is faulty or has a worn or broken zif socket.

                      Problem

                      This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

                      Asus Chromebox CN62 - wrong chip put on BIOS reader
                      by BMCappelletti
                      Long story short:
                      - dad converted Asus Chromebox CN62 into Windows compatible, with mrchromebox BIOS, years and years ago
                      - gave the computer to his son a couple years later
                      - son now decided to revert it to Chrome OS, to sell it as original (re-writing BIOS with the backup one created by his dad)
                      - too lazy to remove the board from the case, thought a voltage regulator was the BIOS chip (you know... it has 8 legs)
                      (seems like the story was not that short)

                      He used alligator clips to read the chip. No luck reading it. Removed chip and placed on a SOC-8...
