    This is one I did while live at Leeds Hackspace. It was pretty funky.

      It's amazing this... i don't know if i will never understand well how a panel works but surely it's a strange thing you detach a piece and tv works better!
      From Tom66 video:
      1. it was not the same defect as the OP right?
      2. The resulting image was quality better than the OP? (ghost image..)
      thanks..
      From Budwich:
      "tape and more foil.... almost like a capacitor."
      and why not opening up an electrolytic cap. and unroll it?

        It is the same fault , both panels failing.
        I only repair Panasonic plasma tv's! Currently owning a TX-P55VT50 and still searching for a ZT60!

          The OP said "It had no backlight, no picture but it did have sound."...
          No because i can't understand well the video, the fault is unclear, i don't understand the speech, and i don't see the hands (my monitor is not so bright..)..

            My opinion is that the sharp completes a few tests before turning on the tv. In this case there was a short on the panel which led to a short on the t-con. He removed 1 part and that short was gone and tv completes it's cycle.

            Toms video shows a fault with the panel on the bottom row. Same symptoms happen alot of on philips lcd's also. Removing the side taps on the side where the fault is will sometimes fix the problem. Not always as the fault can also be a tabbond problem.

              Tom removed all right side tabs right? The fault is the common one where there's an orizzontal line on the screen, up to this video is good, down to this video is delayed and/or darker and/or double image?

              "My opinion is that the sharp completes a few tests before turning on the tv. In this case there was a short on the panel which led to a short on the t-con. He removed 1 part and that short was gone and tv completes it's cycle."

              it is maybe that OP's fault is shorted side COF chip (it got HOT), Tom's defect maybe a broken trace in the glass or top/bottom tabs..

                In my case it was an early generation LG Philips 37" 1080p LCD panel that used gate drivers on both the left and right of the panel. Removing one shorted driver meant that it was no longer pulling down the signals on the panel, restoring the image. However, the result of doing this is the driver on the left hand side of the panel is now doing all the work for that part of the panel. That may mean its life span is shortened quite considerably so I have decided not to sell the TV because I cannot give a warranty on it knowing this. It has simply been donated to the hackspace as a general use TV.

                I only removed one driver, no need to put stress on all remaining drivers, but some faults will require removing all of them.

Try some double sided tape or maybe some mylar tape. Place it over the contacts. Make sure it is wider than the "next step"... get some aluminum foil and place it over the tape ensuring that NO aluminum is extending past the tape... you don't want any conductive material on the contacts. You also then try a second layer... tape and more foil.... almost like a capacitor.
                    Thanks I'll try this! I don't have any double sided tape at the moment so I'll go and get it this weekend.

                      Ps , the fix on this sharp tv will be a temporary fix also. It might last a week or maybe a few years. There is no garranty it will continue to work.
                      Put the backlights to 50/60% and dont stress the panel to much

                        "and dont stress the panel to much "... Whatcing only green hills and sea with beaches? :-)

                        i've noticed that side tabs remains cold but top/bottom ones go very hot, without one side of tabs the other side increase hot or it increases the top/bottom of that side? If the second he can put thermal pads between tab and metal bezel to last longer..

                          LED backlight has nothing to do with panel lifespan.

                          The best content to display on the panel, in terms of gate driver reliability, is a 50% grey signal. However that gets boring quick .

                            I know but the LEDS are always failing on these LED tv's , so i meant if he wants a more reliable tv he should put the backlights on 50/60%.

                              It's edge lit though. Do those TV's have the same problem? I've ever only seen Backlight LED's fail.

                                Sorry for the late update.

                                I tried many layers of tape and aluminium foil to create my own capacitor but it didn't work. I ended up buying a bunch of different capacitors, cutting them open and roling them out. AND IT WORKED!


                                I had damaged one of the lines earlier so it isn't perfect. I attached them with tape (the strong kind) and hot glue. If you're really carefull with taking them off you can probably get it perfect again.

                                If anyone else ever wants to try this as well. the uF is the important thing. Too much and it'll look the same as with the tabs on (half black). Too little and it's not gone completely. Somewhere in between 100-500 uF. It depends on the severity of the problem.

                                This removes ghosting and horizontal lines as well!

                                See pics.

                                  wow... glad it worked out. Of course, you didn't take pictures of your "frankenstein capacitor", did ya? Might help with others to give them an ideas of how to proceed if they need this type of operation.

                                    Yeah sorry about that... I was actually getting pretty pissed off by assembly and disassembly a thousand times. I didn't want to do it all over again.

                                    Instructions:
                                    -Take off the bottom part of the capacitor with cutting pliers.
                                    -Take out the roll try not to damage it. Damage it and you throw it away.
                                    -Try to find the beginning of the roll like with tape and carefully unroll the capacitor this way.
                                    -After you unroll you have layers of paper like material in between the aluminium strips.
                                    -Hold the material with the aluminium in between against the connectors (tabs removed) with the TV on (DONT TOUCH IT WITH THE ALUMINIUM) and see if there is a reaction. Compare it to wetting your finger and holding it against the tabs to check the difference
                                    -Once you found that it works fold or cut the capacitor to size of the tab (I folded) and stick it against the tab with strong tape. Make sure it's tight and no aluminium touches the tab connections.
                                    -Now check the TV. If it's perfect use hot glue to permanently fasten it.
                                    If not try to mess with it a little or just redo the process from the start.

                                    That's it! It'll work, but I don't know for how long this works since you're still taking capacitors out of their shell. I don't know how long until they are dried.

                                      good stuff... sorry I wasn't trying to get you to open up the tv again... I know that isn't any fun (I played with a 70 in). Anyways, your hot glue idea may help the dielectric from drying out hopefully. Good job and good luck with your saved tv.

                                        Maybe you have to use gloves 'cause as i know the capacitors are poisonous..

                                          Re: Sharp LC-60LE752E Panel shorted?

                                          Hi guys,

                                          I am writing to you from Chile. I have a problem similar to the one in the topic on a Sony KDL-60R555A. The original problem was that it turned on with the backlight, it had sound, but no image.

                                          Reviewing the T-CON I realized that the famous "COXA" MOSFET that was discussed in other topics was shorted between Drain and Source. I replaced it with a Si2308BDS (MOSFET 60V x 2.3A) which far exceeds the characteristics of the original and now I have an image, but after 5 to 15 minutes of use the right part of the screen (viewed from the front) begins to show blurred as per the attached image.

                                          Will I have to apply the same surgery that @mkkillah applied or can I check something before doing that?

                                          Thanks in advance and of course i'll keep you informed.

                                            Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
                                            by advant
                                            This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

                                            I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...

                                            General Questions on the Relationship Between Mainboard, TCON and Panel
                                            by mmartell
                                            My goal here is to be able to use boards on hand to swap into faulty sets when the faulty board is not obvious.

                                            I will start by asking what is the format of the output from the mainboard and is it generic in any way or does it vary by manufacturer and/or model ?

                                            And as far as I know a tcon and panel must be a matching pair because the timing of the signals and the voltages required to drive the panel are specific to the panel itself. (That may be a blanket statement that isn't true in some cases where the panel creates its own sub-voltages on its panel boards?)...

                                            Amazon Fire TV Omni K24NE5 tcon or panel bad?
                                            by Lee M.
                                            TV came on with BL on but blank screen. Disconnected one of the ribbon cables from tcon to panel driver board and now I have half of the screen working normally. Any way to tell if the problem is with the tcon or the panel driver board or the panel itself? Should I just replace the tcon and see what happens?

                                            Toshiba TV bad panel half screen dark - pull tabs or not?

                                            Hi fellas, I have a Toshiba 50u6863db (vestel crap) here belonging to a family member.
                                            The TV was given me to repair (possibly) as it had developed a blank screen, just back lights and sound.

                                            Upon further investigation it turned out one of her cats had sprayed on the screen as I could see it on the edge of the panel and tabs and it stank. Looks like it probably shorted the circuitry. I cleaned it up and still the same.

                                            I initially suspected Tcon board as none of the test points were showing correct voltages. Tried removing one LVDS cable at a time, same result....

                                            Sharp LC-80LE844U Blinks 2 slow, 5 fast
                                            by joblo37pam
                                            It's been a while since I've checked in here or needed input on narrowing down what to replace on a TV repair, but I've got one on my bench now that has me wondering. The lack of part (board) availability means I may need to do some component-level diagnostics, and a second opinion is always good when it comes to that.

                                            The issue - Sharp LC-80LE844U does not display. Power light comes on for a while, then you can hear a relay click off and the light blinks twice slow, then five times fast. Service manual points to 'Panel Power Supply Error' with this code, but isn't much more help...
