    Rca led65g55r120q lvds ribbon fubar

    Working on a RCA 65" had a bad LED on one strip. Fixed that, but in the process of re-assembly I FUBARed one of the LVDS ribbon connections that go from T_Con to panel driver board. Its a KaiQun E356155 80 connector ribbon.


    How can I repair this as I am having a difficult time finding a replacement ribbon long enough. Thanks.

    I think you either get a new panel, or you are SOL on that one, unless you have a tab bonding machine.

        No it wasn't a tab bonded cable, it runs from T-Con to panel driver board. has flip connectors at each end.


        So I searched the internet and found a ham radio site where a guy had done about the same thing as I did, but on a fewer contact ribbon. His was long enough as was mine to cut off the fubared section. Saving the blue connector support, it was held on by heat sensitive adhesive.


        Then ribbon was taped down to a flat metal surface, then the next step was the most time consuming part. I took an exacto knife and scraped away the insulation covering the traces a little bit at a time.


        Took about 25 min because I did not want to scrape too hard, got to where the traces were showing then took 320 grit sand paper and finished polishing traces. Sanding with the direction of the traces not across. Finished trimming sides of cable to fit in connector so tab would close, And WALA it worked.

        Didn't post a before pic but 1/4 of left hand side of screen was black before repair on cable.

                A couple on that page for 13 bucks, not cheap but I guess it's supply and demand at work: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...acat=0&_sop=15

                  Samsung un82ru88000f - Boot loop sort of but can correct with taping of LVDS ribbon
                  by NolesFan
                  Hello all... TV started boot looping. Opened the back panel and tried to isolate the problem. Just PSB no boot loop. PSB and MB no boot loop. Plug in the LVDS from panel to MB and boot looping starts up. It doesnt matter of order that I plug the LVDS ribbons back in, only 1 and no boot loop but as soon as 2nd one plugs in boot looping. I then noticed a flicker on the screen when I was closing the clip on the harness to the LVDS. Shut the lights off so I can see better, and I noticed as i slowly close it, I will get a picture, but as soon as it clips in, I lose picture and booting happens. So I...

                  UN70NU6900FXZA Won't Boot Unless I Temporarily Disconnect Right LVDS Ribbon
                  by Scincidae
                  I recently was given a UN70NU6900FXZA that would only boot loop once plugged in (auto powers on when plugged in). I found that disconnecting the lower (right side) LVDS ribbon, then plugging the TV in, followed by reconnecting the lower LVDS ribbon will allow the TV to work 100% normal as far as I can tell (no lines, no discoloration, no dimming or anything like that).

                  I tried the tape method on the lower LVDS ribbon and found that if I cover pins 10 and 11 (counting from the bottom up) allows the TV to boot normal but 25% screen all the way to the right side is discolored. While...

                  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)...

                  Quick question about the ribbon
                  by Rubenlily
                  Hey,

                  So I have horizontal lines on my TV and I'm trying to trouble shoot. My question about the ribbon is:

                  When I disconnect one ribbon from the t-con I should get half picture working and other half black or something like that correct? But when I disconnect the ribbon on one side I just get a dark screen and it doesn't matter what side I disconnect. I just get the dark screen. No half working, no one half black and the other one left. Sound is playing from the TV so it's obviously on and when both sides are connected I have the picture with the horizontal lines...
