    LG 32 LN5100 no picture, sound okay, led okay

    Hi,
    I'm currently trying to fix this tv, I was watching a local news when suddenly it fades to black, sound was okay and there is still back light on it. Changing channel and volume works. So open up the tv and check if there are bulge caps, nothing. Check loose connection and everything is okay. Suspecting it is a T-con issue, check voltage and getting a 12v on other side of the fuse but 0 on the other, so tried to replace it by using a glass fuse with same amp for testing, 1.5 and fuse was blown, remove panel connector to the tcon, fuse blown, tried to read the current that is passing from that fuse, it was reading 4-5amp, tried to use a 5amp fuse but led would turn off as soon as i turn on the tv, also the i marked the parts that are hot to touch. ordered a new tcon from ebay and would be arriving on Dec. Is there any other thing i need to check on this t-con board? check all the caps, resistor using my digital tester and found no short components.

    can you remove the ribbon cable from the tcon that goes to the lcd panel and try again that way it may eliminate a short on the lcd panel or pcb boards.

      yes, did that already, the only cable that was connected on my 2nd test is the lvds cable and fuse still blown.

        One of the regulators is shorting. Check the semi-conductor components labeled 'U---'.
        Sometimes it may be easier to just buy a new/used T-CON replacement board.

          The Ic is probably short, had the same with some Sharp Tcons. What is the PN on the Ic ? To confirm this you could unsolder the inductor, bridge over the pads and apply 12v to the Tcon on the other end of the fuse with no Lvds or panel ribbons in but make sure its grounded see what smokes. You must remove the inductor though as a short across it you will kill it.

            yeah, was trying to find a datasheet for the ic but unable to do so. i did ordered a replacement tcon on ebay and will wait for it to arrive. will experiment with the bad tcon once the other one arrive, thanks guys.

                  Awesome work, also I suggest you turn the backlight way down and add a heatsink to the main cpu help it cool.

                          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.

                          Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
                          by Ierwin
                          Hello everyone,
                          Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
                          The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
                          He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
                          I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
                          Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

                          by jchang
                          Hi all

                          I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



                          Symptom:
                          No picture no sound.
                          When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
                          No sound at all.



                          What I tried:
                          1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...

                          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...

                          by ChaosLegionnaire
                          so i took out one of my spare gigabyte ep35-ds3r mobos from storage for use to do some cpu, ram and video card testing of stuff i bought from ebay and got for free from momaka. he bought 50 e8400 cpus for cheap from ebay some years ago and i decided to help him relieve him of some of his supply since he had waaaay too many!! what did we say about hoarding too much stuff and depriving others of them?! *cough* socialism *cough* lol!

                          i had to blow some dust off the board and heatsinks with the datavac as i didnt clean it up before putting it in storage. after finishing...
