    60PA6500 - Same old problem, no picture but sound

    Hello all!

    Been doing some research and I can't find anything that covers what I'm looking for, besides this:
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18542&

    I have a LG 60PA6500 that currently turns on and has no picture but sound.

    I'll explain my situation. I'm a college student looking to fix this broken TV - I have resources for all the DIY I may need, from reflow soldering to oscilloscopes and infinite amount of testing equipment and supplies. This can be fixed, but I need to figure out what's wrong on it - That, I don't have much experience in.

    Here's some additional information:

    1. The control logic board does not flash at all - the 5V bus is getting power. The main board has a constant red light when I power it on. Can't find any information about if the logic board has no light!

    2. Where are schematics? Are there none? I feel like there's gotta be some service manuals or something -- All I can find is for the main board, which I would love to have for the other boards...

    3. I have replaced the left hand side (top and bottom) buffer boards, also tried per a forum/website to disconnect the Y and Z from the power supply -- no dice.

    4. Measured voltages -- Everything looks good with 5V, VA, VS --

    5. Obviously the fuses are all good to go... (Including ones that don't necessarily look like regular fuses)


    Where to start? I'm thinking/hoping if I can just replace the control logic board it'll fix everything but that might not be the case...

    You have stable VA,Vs. Have you tried to force test patterns?

    I assume no responsibility for any stupid suggestions I might post.

      I'm not sure how to force a test pattern! Couldn't find the exact details for this model. How do I do this?

      **EDIT**
      I found this:
      "OK, on the CTRL board you can see a pair of holes on the bottom right hand of the board marked EXT AUTO GEN.

      Turn the TV power off (unplug the set)
      Place a wire link between these holes
      Disconnect the LVDS cable between the main board and control board
      Plug the TV in...do the test patterns cycle continuously?"

      Will test and come back.

          Hi all, went ahead and tried to connect the EXT pins, disconnect the main blue connector (as shown on the right), and see if I get a test pattern. No dice.

          Thoughts?

            What might be some standard FETs or areas that go bad?

              [SOLVED] M1 MacBook Pro clicking sound logic board 5V no power on A2338 820-02020
              by slimmy182
              Hello, I bought this Mac from a friend, he said that it simply stop working. The MacBook looks very clean but does not power on, stuck on 5v 0.42A, and sometimes display 5V and 0A (then 0.071A and again 0A).

              I opened it looking for some problem, it was not touched before for sure and the board is very clena, no spot of corrosion at all from what I can see. Voltage on multimeter of the board off the case it's the same, 5V 0.42A. But then I noticed this "clicking sound" come from the board ( I attached here the audio file).

              Looking on google I found this:...

              Samsung UN55H8000AF - No Picture, Working Backlight, Replaced T-Con Board
              by ermals
              Hi all!
              I've recently run into an issue with my Samsung UN55H8000AF LED TV displaying no image. I've done quite a bit of research in terms of what could be wrong with it. Below are the steps I've taken prior to reaching out here for some assistance:

              1. I've tried replacing the T-Con board (BN95-01594A), twice and have still experienced the same issue with all the boards I've tested with.
              2. I've tried to remove one side of the ribbon cable that goes from the T-Con board to the panel and still not getting any image on left or right side.
              3. I've checked voltages...

              55" TCL 55us57-wtlaa TV - No picture, backlight/sound work, T-Con board was replaced
              by Sgj24
              Hello all, I was given a 55" 2017 TCL Roku TV that has an issue of no picture, but the backlights and audio are in full operation. I did some digging and narrowed it down to a possibly bad T-Con board, I replaced it today with a unit I got off of Ebay but the issue is still there. I'm not good with electronic testing (multimeter, soldering, etc.) so I would appreciate any insight on the likely cause. Screen appears undamaged and the remote can still switch around settings (I've tried a hard reset). I assume it could be the video or power boards, but I also had a theory on it being the ribbon...
