    Element ELCHS321 Comes on then buzz and picture flicker

    Element ELCHS321 Comes on then buzzes and the picture (menu and all) starts flickering off/on rapidly.
    As soon as i got the back off i saw the trouble but then decided it was too good not to share this one....
    Classic Bad Caps.

    Clue is on the power supply and the obvious swollen small caps i thought at first... then I saw "IT"... LOL

      Quite a few capacitors in extremely bad conditions. Hope replacement capacitors sort it out.
      Willing to help but I'm no expert.

          Yup the big filter cap in the middle was vented to meltdown....
          Replaced all the caps and VIOLA!!! Back in action!

          not familiar with element brand but this thing is built like a tank..
          Just cheap caps but it is pretty solid otherwise.
          Date stamp is 2008
          went up on the voltages of the caps a wee bit just to keep er cool..

          Done

              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 flicker - BN44-00932T board or else?
              by fixit007
              I picked up this TV that the prior owner said - just died.

              Tested the fuse - burnt. A dead capacitor is visible too on the hot side (CP801). Got the replacement power board (cheaply - used). Replaced the board - the TV turned ON!

              Now, about a month later (yesterday) I noticed the left side of the screen was flickering from time to time. That was already happening with the antenna input, not through HDMI.

              Also, some glitchiness with a Fire stick on HDMI3 - I hit an app with quick dark screen in stick, the TV goes - no input. Then I had to choose the stick...

              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...

              Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
              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.

              - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

              Element E4AA70R black screen shows picture
              by EazyBone
              On this TV I got black screen with with picture.

              Tested the LEDs and they work.

              Had a hunch that this was similar to a ONN tv thread I found and wanted to post about this to possibly help someone else.

              The capacitor by the LEDs is bulging, 450v 10 uf. I suspect this is the cause. Will post results after replacing the capacitor. You could just replace power board as well I assume.

              https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=110615

              Will post results when capacitor arrives...
