Last chance Bravia. blank or white screen KDL-60EX645
So I'm at my wits end with this TV. I had 2 of these sets bought at the same time. Both went dark with Backlight 6 blink error. Ordered strips, installed strips, worked for 2 weeks, then same error.
Ordered power board since it has brown area by backlight connector, and has to be the cause of the issue. Instal board, backlights (edgelit) works again, but now no picture. Sound and backlights, but no picture. I can tell by the edgelights its booting up.
So I start checking the cables and such on the Tcon, and after checking the fuse, the screen starts up and goes all white. At first there were horizontal lines, but they fade and the whole screen goes white.
That tells me that its possible the panel isn't toast, which is what I figured. If it will go white, its getting signal of some fashion I think, yet after 2 days I can't figure out whats going on.
One of the TV's panel cracked, so I have 2 of everything to swap out, which quickly eliminates things, to an extent. I've swapped out everything more than once. 2 T-cons, 2 main boards, harnesses, etc.
I'm a whisper away from just tossing it all and eating the $200 loss for parts bought. I took a voltage reading off the tcon at the fuse, which has written 32v, 2.something Mamps, yet I get 12v, both sides.
I would be extremely thankful for any suggestions or advice. I figured a driver tab or ribbon on the panel got damaged and that was the issue. Yet when I got a white screen I figured theres hope its not the panel. Yet its the only thing I can't swap out. ugh.
