    Rca_led65g55r120q

    Hello all.

    First meaningful post. As the subject states, I have an RCA 65" LED TV. I got it a couple years ago after a deployment. Not too long after I got it, the one dead pixel spread to a line across the screen. RCA warranted it, and refunded my entire purchase price, but did not make me return the cord. As it was still 99% functional, I continued to use it until a couple of months ago when the screen went out. I took a quick video with my phone, which I'll link below.

    I'm honestly brand new to TV component repair, so hopefully, one of you fin folks can help me sort out what broke, and how to fix it.

    Thanks!



    Later!

    I take it you have sound but no picture? it looks like the screen flashes for a split second then shuts down? If this is the case more than likely you have a blown LED (s) inside the panel. I have two of these sets that I purchased within the last month for dirt cheap. Both had blown LED(s) and I replaced the individual LED(s), both sets are up and running. Dim the lights in your room, turn on the set and shine a flash light on the screen. I bet you will see a faint picture. These sets are notorious for LED failures.

      Yeah. In the brief flashes, the screen is functioning, but then it flashes off. I wasn't sure if that indicated a power or main board, or led's. I assume there is info on how to troubleshoot and repair the led strips, so I'll see if I can sort that out.

      Thanks!!!!

        wow, sorry for the late reply! I don't know if you are still working on the set or not but this may help someone else. There are youtube videos that walk you through troubleshooting LED backlights.

          Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
          by Ryan.man
          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...

          Macbook Air M2 A2681 Kernel panics after screen replacement
          by reformatt
          Just had a customer bring in a M2 MBA A2681 that had had a screen replacement in April at another repairer. Since then, she has been getting intermittent kernel panics. It's an aftermarket screen, and of course it fails in diagnostics as the calibration hasn't been done. The error in the panic log is "No device added after powering on the rails".

          It seems the original repairer has swapped the board and the screen to other MAC's, and said that it isn't a screen issue. From what I understand, by doing a quick search on Google, this is in fact a screen issue. The panic relates...

          iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
          by smic717394
          Hi,

          I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...

          Samsung UE55JU6800K half screen dark
          by Chrissygizmo
          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...

          Vizio TV M50-C1 reboot cycle and static on screen
          by spice_disc
          I'm currently trying to diagnose and fix my Vizio TV (Model M50-C1). I've tried a number of different basic solutions, but I'm trying to determine if my issue is currently a failing panel, T-Con board, or main board (or something else entirely) and whether or not it is worth my time to fix it. Details of the issue and what I've tried are below as well as why I think it is either a bad panel, T-Con board, or main board.

          The Issue: The TV will be on and working fine but after the TV is on for ~5-10 minutes the screen will freeze (with sound continuing) until the TV reboots itself. While...
