    Westinghouse DW39F1Y1 - No picture or audio

    Hello people of BCN, long time no see.

    Anyway, I got the aforementioned TV from my grandparents because they said it was dead.

    I couldn't see any backlight or any picture (usually, a Westinghouse logo appears before going to the input, but no sign of it at any angle) and I have to take my grandparents word for it audio-wise, because I don't have any audio device to test it with, and finding the right source with no picture would be a guessing game.

    When it's turned on, I do hear a faint humming from the area around the T-Con board. I imagine that's from the inverter board which is probably underneath the T-con.

    Do you think it's the inverter board, the T-Con board, or the main board? I don't think it's the power supply, since it does appear to be receiving power.

      Lets see some pictures of the whole back side of the TV so we can see how all the boards are connected together, that will be a starting point.

        A quick google search suggests this maybe a led model? so may be a failed led as budm says post some pictures we can try to help then.

          Here is the back of it. Sorry for the low quality image (iPhone camera) as my nice SLR camera is dead and I can't find the charger.

              VIZIO E70-E3 Half picture with half TCON
              by Fly_Among_Stars
              Hi,
              I have a VIZIO E70-E3.
              Symptoms: Black screen, no picture, but LED backlights are working.
              I probed the power board and voltages are as listed on the board.
              Main board appears fine, too.
              I believe the problem is either a bad T-CON board, or connection to LCD, or bad LCD.
              There are two separate ribbon cables feeding the LCD.
              If both are connected, the screen is black.

              If only the ribbon cable that feeds the right side of the screen (when viewed from the front) is disconnected, the left side of the screen shows picture and...

              Samsung LCD TV no picture backlight on no 12v at tcon
              by shelby5041
              hi
              i have a samsung lcd tv

              it powers on with sound and backlight but no picture

              all voltages from PS are good 12v 3.3v and 5v

              whats odd is that at the tcon i tested voltage across the fuse on the tcon and i get 0v

              i figured main board issue..so i ordered a used main board....when i put replacement main board in i still have same issue

              no 12v at the tcon fuse

              i disconnect the panel ribbon cables to rule out any panel issues and i still have no 12v at the tcon fuse

              the odds of having 2...

              TCL 50S535 bad tcon or panel issue?
              by x_orange90_x
              Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

              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 UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
              by JJAAMM
              This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

              Problem
              TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...
