    Westinghouse LD-3255VX Half Of Screen is gone?

    Hi! Firstly, this is a repost. I posted this before but it got pushed a few pages back. So, I have a Westinghouse LD-3255VX 720p 32" LCD TV. It came out of a bar or club, that's all I know about it. Was given to me. So, the bottom half of the screen is black and has vertical colored lines. I have reseated all cables, resoldered the LVDS connector on the main board, (main board is OK). I also took the front frame off to check the tabs - nothing happens when you press them or tap them. Nothing when flexing the panel, no evident signs of damaged components on any board. What could the problem be here?

              Can you see anything in the bottom half at all? Or is it pure black?

                  It used to have color streaks but now it is pure black.

                      I just got angry and threw it off the balcony. I'm just stressed at this. Fuck it.

                              I think the panel was water damaged, judging by the debris!

                                  Well if it's any consolation it was probably bad panel. Thus not repairable.
                                  I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

                                      Hello everyone, I’ve just been given a Samsung UE55JU6800K smart tv as it had white spots on the screen due to the led lenses falling off. After refitting them & putting the tv back together I thought it was a nice easy fix for a free bedroom tv , then I tried it before screwing the back into place. I realised that the right side of the screen was darker than the other side, I removed the screen again as I thought the backlights had failed but they are fine.
                                      I put the screen back in place & turned it back on . The screen seemed to be ok again but different screens on the same...

                                      Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                                      My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                                      This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                                      LG 55UH6150- trouble powering up, then half lit screen (pictures!)
                                      by valvashon
                                      The 55" LG has been in the basement for a few months without being used. Turned it on yesterday, set came on as it should and showed a complete screen for about 5 seconds (was on a broadcast channel but no antenna was connected), then the screen went mostly dark with about 1/3 of the screen on the right lighting up with brighter lines in that lit part (sorry, no pictures of that). Power LED was cycling too, preventing the TV from fully powering up.
                                      Pulled the back off, all boards looked OK. Pulled the LED connector, turned the set on to see if it would power up but I don't belive it...

                                      good night! I have this screen that looks half black and half white. the tcon gives a low vgh value (5-6v). the rest seem fine. I first removed the flex from one half of the panel and then the other. Removing the left, vgh increases it to 25-26v. I think the problem is in that area, but there are not many elements on the integrated controller board. there are no shorted capacitors. could they be a cof? Some help?

                                      By the way, now the entire screen is black. Maybe some flex was not connected correctly... I have exchanged the flex and there are no variations, I don't think they are the...

                                      I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
                                      Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
                                      when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...
