Looks like a screen tab bond issue to me should be fixable, get us some images of the boards used in a cpl of days

Hi guys apologies for taking so long \, moved house and its seems in this day and age it takes nearly 2 weeks for phone/internet to be hooked up. So I've taken the back off removed cleaned and replaced all tabs and ribbon cables even removed front bezel and applied pressure to screen tabs with no luck although the six running off the buffer board and along the bottom of the panel I'm not sure how to get to as i didn't see where they attached when I checked the 14 that run across the top. After pretty much hitting every component with freeze spray with no change, maybe the problem lies with 1 or 2 of the bottom six tabs

Well stripped tv right down and got to the ribbon cables from buffer board, checked all the leds while I was in that deep and all looked ok, taking the screen off was easy enough luckily having read other posts of them breaking and not having any help I basically got 2 broom sticks laid them horizontally across screen and gaffa taped them down then lifted screen out and back in holding the sticks. managed to find a T-con for $60 so guess that's next thing to try. Let you know if it worked soon as it arrives

Re: Samsung LA55A950

that's what I would do too... if it still doesn't work with the new tcon, you always can salvage the rest and sell it.

I for got to mention when powering up the tv takes quite about 12 seconds to display a screen, also when I bring up the content section which is on the screen in first post the lines aren't there but gradually appear and I noticed that the standby light which does light up red in standby doesn't light up green when tv on, if that means anything
