    Samsung le40a656 ever worsening issues

    TV started of with tab intermittent tab issue.
    Fixed and working for a couple of days, then foggy image started to appear and after about a minute the tv picture would black out over period of 1-2 second, back light was still on. If power off and on it would repeat.
    Now have the 5 flashes of red light then red light goes out situation, back light not going on now. Cooling fan is spinning. After about 1-2 minutes it repeats cycle or if power pressed again it goes into standby and then when power pressed flashing as before.

    Caps all look ok with no physical issues.
    Checked all the outputs to control board on CN801 and all ok (volts etc match, assuming power on/off of 3.65v ok as not stated on board). cni803 has 1 inverter of/on(4.9v), 2 ana dim(3.34v), 3 pwm dim (1.83v), 4 grd (0v), 5 det_5v (5v). Not sure if these are ok apart from grnd and 5v one.
    Both fuses ok on power board.

    Anyone any ideas would be greatly appreciated before I throw in bin

    Bad panel?

      Agree. Bad panel. Flaky tab bond you might wanna check your connection again. Also be sure you don't have the problem of the other side of the panel also.
      Did I leave the soldering iron on?

        thought it might be circuit fault as not power going to backlights from power board.

          Odd, I have a jvc LT-37X688 from 2007, I tore it down about 15 times trying to get the shim right for a bad tab bond, got the lines gone but still had a dark blotch in middle of screen looked kind of like a small tornado or such, hdmi ports don't work, pulled it out after sitting for half a year, ran it for about 10 hours, the blotch hasnt returned, has a nice picture but isnt very useful, no pc port and bad hdmi. Sure is strange how the blotch is gone tho.
