    Lg 55lv5500

    Hey guys. So I'm looking for opinions from experienced users on what to replace on my TV from the symptons it's having.

    Here's my issue. Last week it was on Netflix, then when I changed the input from netflix to a hdmi source the screen flickered and the hdmi source image was dim and flickering on and off and the TV shut off.

    When I turned the TV on I had no image, no sound, and no backlight. I waited like an hour and when I turned the TV back on the LG logo appears and I have back light but no image. I left the TV on just staring at it and the screen flickered and went back to the hdmi image for like 10 seconds then the image was gone.

    So my tv sympton's are no sound no image but I do have back light at times. At times I mean if the TV turns on and there's no backlight I'll shut it off and wait a bit and then turn it on and the backlight comes on.

    I took the panel off the back of the TV and exposed all the boards. I hear a slight humming from the t con board. If I take off a ribbon from the main board going into the t con the humming stops, when I plug it back in humming starts.

    I'm thinking the main board could be the issue. I did have 2 blackouts last week due to a storm so I'm assuming the TV power surged...

    I have a meter but I'm not familiar with testing boards.
    Should I go ahead and get a the main board repaired?
    Thanks in advanced.

    Try reflowing the processor on the main board with a heat gun.

        Take off the heatsink. There are 4 plastic pins that hold it down. Squeeze the tabs on the bottom and pull out. I use a Wagner paint stripper with a modified nozzel, down to 1/4 inch, for about 1 minute. Did it many, many times.

          So I did take take off the heat sink from the main board but I did the oven reflow method and it worked. The TV turned on and I have audio and display.
          The day after the messed up I got a Sony X850D. Now the LG will go to the master bedroom.
          Thanks guys for all your help!

            Mainboard: VESTEL 17MB171 Chassis: VES315WNGB - 2D - N52
            The TV was stuck on the logo and I couldn't access the update menu.
            I couldn't find the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 and updated it with the Toshiba 32WA2063DG - Vestel 17MB171 firmware.
            The image result was good, but the image is inverted.
            The image rotation/mirror function doesn't exist in the Menu Server. I can't correct the image.
            Do you have the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 - Vestel 17MB171 motherboard or a solution to rotate the image in...

            Lift Master Garage Door wall switch display / motion sensor controller display disappeared no back light
            by sam_sam_sam
            This happened last Saturday and today I finally had time this morning before I went to work to replace two non brand capacitors

            I will let you be the judge weather or not these are bad or not according to the blue ESR meter that I am using

            I am comparing them to a brand new one that I installed

            The display came back on and the programming was not lost which I was surprised by I would have thought that when the display went blank that so did the memory as well

            I going to let it run for several days before I remount back on the wall next to the...

            Hisense Roku 58R6E3 has back and audio, no image
            by ratslap
            Hi all,

            The television screen is black but it is back lit. flashlight test doesn't yield any results as the screen is lit. the television just repeats a message about enabling or disabling the screen reader feature.

            first thing tested was unplugging the screen cables that lead to the tcon. when I unplug the right cable the screen shows half black on the left and white on the right. but when i unplug the the left tcon cable the entire screen remains black. From my understanding this indicates a screen panel problem. I have had previous success with covering some of the...
