    Recalibration needed after Main/A board replacement?

    Hi all, this is just a general question for you folks who had main/A boards replaced and care about image fidelity...I was wondering after the main/A board for a plasma or LCD TV is replaced, do you need to recalibrate the TV again (hiring a pro or using your own colorimeter) or can you simply enter in the same color/white balance values you had before. Since the panel is the same, I would think you can use the same values again but I am not sure. Thanks for your time.

    I would guess that if you re enter everything, it should be back to normal. I never have or had a tv calibrated , just watch 'em.

      Thanks for your input, TVTimmy! I am very obsessive when it comes to squeezing the most image quality out of my TVs and that means performing a proper calibration for each one. It involves quite a bit of time and effort using colorimeters, slides and dedicated software like CalMan so if there is no need to repeat the process, I would be relieved. I know the main/A board has the color management bits but I am not sure If these boards are all uniform in that regard or have enough variation to warrant recalibration.

        Help Needed: Samsung UE55MU8000 Dead - Possible Main Board Issue
        by Asraf Atb
        Hi everyone,

        Im looking for some advice regarding my Samsung UE55MU8000 TV with main board model BN94-11606C. The TV suddenly stopped turning on and now shows no signs of life at all not even the standby light at the bottom.

        Initially, I suspected an issue with the PSU, so I took it to a repair center. They tested it and confirmed that the PSU works perfectly, even on other TVs. Based on that, I started investigating the main board.

        I disconnected the main board from the PSU, and the backlight turned on, which seems to confirm the main board is the issue....

        LG 55NANO77SRA TV – Menu scrolling by itself even after removing button board (Main Board EBU66792103)
        by ygorsan
        Hi everyone,




        I’m looking for help with a persistent issue on an LG TV model 55NANO77SRA, which uses the main board EBU66792103 (also used in LG UQ80 and NANO75/NANO80 series).







        🧩 Problem Summary:
        • The TV keeps scrolling through the menu or selecting items by itself.
        • I removed the physical button board (the entire panel with power and volume buttons) and also disconnected the flat cable (CN202) from the main board.
        • The remote control is not in use (batteries removed), and the TV still shows the same behavior.

        Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
        by jb_Bak
        Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

        Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
        Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
        CN6401
        Pin 01 NC
        Pin 02 NC
        Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
        Pin 04 "N/C"
        Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
        Pin 06 "GND": N/C
        Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

        (SOLVED) - ONN 100012588 No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change
        by JDC
        ONN 100012588
        Issue: No Power, Then Rebooting After Main Board Change

        Short answer: replace main board and power board
        Technical answer: replace main board and Q306 & Q307 on power board.

        Long answer:

        TV wouldn't turn on. Power switch was fine which means the main board isn't processing the power on signal. Replaced main board. TV turns on now but randomly reboots. Bad main board? EEPROM? Tried to pull main board and got a shock touching the corner of the board. That's weird. C334 (450V 10uf) capacitor is still holding a high charge....

        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
        by Tynan Dill
        I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

        Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

        I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

        The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

        With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

        Assuming...
