    Philips 32PFL3008H/12 bad backlight

    Hello, I'm repairing Philips TV which has Vestel 17IPS19-5p power supply. So far I replaced 400V MOSFET, diodes and MP3394 and TV started to work again but with very low brightness and I only see the picture in the dark room.
    Voltage across the LED is around 50V which is not enough I guess?
    What should I check? Capacitors are OK, so I don't know what else to check.

    Please post clear pics of the boards.

    What happens if you test the backlights with a backlight tester?
    What is the voltage output of the LED driver pins?

    I ask because i've seen LED strips that appear much dimmer compared to the strip next to it. Some of the LEDs have probably gone bad and requires a lot more current to get them to full brightness. Time to replace the LEDs or get a new panel strip.

      hi,
      I have a silimar case and my fault was ic driver MP3394, the voltage was low and image very dark.
      You need make a test with the led bars first 50v is low (for example: in 32" tv backlight have 2 bars with 11 leds , well 11x3v =33 x2 = 66v



      Regards.

        Philips TV Backlight Repair
        by chestercc
        So i'm trying to replace the LED's in a Philips TV. It's 42" with a 715g7262-p01-000-0010 backlight driver board based around an O2 Micro OZ9902CGN.

        My issue is when I replace all the LED's on one board with the new 3V 300ma ones they immediately burn out when the set is powered again. I previously tried the same thing with 6V LED's and the backlight flickered for a bit but wouldn't start.

        The original LED's which I removed which are still working start to melt and burn when given more than 3V on DCPS so I know they shouldn't be higher voltage ones.

        Trying to control Philips backlight manually with PWM — brightness increases with frequency...?
        by ohren
        I raised the question of whether PWM on the power board "dim" pin would be a reasonable assumption for controlling the backlight of a Philips TV (55put6101/12): https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...d-tv-backlight. I didn't receive any insights there so I went ahead and tried it.

        The setup is basically:

        Rpi3 hardware PWM → 220 Ohm → NPN transistor → dim pin

        Transistor is switching the 3.5 V supply on the power board....

        Philips 55PUS6804/12 turn on & off (probably backlight issue)
        by ovrax
        Hello everyone,

        First of all, please excuse me as I'm quite new to this field.

        I have a Philips 55PUS6804/12 TV. It turns on and off instantly (backlight flash). I personally think it's a backlight issue (faulty LEDs). Could you help me confirm my diagnosis?

        I've checked and the T-CON seems to be fine. I disconnected one ribbon cable at a time at the bottom, but the problem persists.
        The Ambilight works perfectly and stays on.

        No sounds.

        Thanks in advance.

        UN65TU700DF picture and sound but no backlight. BL tests ok but repl. PSU didnt fix!

        this tv is throwing me for a loop. do samsung tvs no longer have the backlight self test feature built into the power supply?
        i tested the backlight with my LED tester and it lights up both strips. one of them reads 100v and the other reads 63.7v.
        unplugged mainboard from power supply but left backlight plugged in, and then plugged psu wall power in. expected to see backlights light up but see nothing.
        according to how ive diagnosed in the past, this would almost always be a bad power supply. replacement power supply was cheap like 20$ from ebay. but still i get not even...

        philips 55pft5500/12 Backlight issue. What am I doing wrong?
        by DoOm86
        TV philips 55'' no backlight (image ok).
        I tested the backlight with my led tester from the unplugged connector cable and it lights up. I had voltages at the motherboard connector, but anyway I order a new psu. Same problem, same voltages. Disassembled the TV and checked every strip with my led tester, they all light up, same voltage for every pair of strip (they go two by two).
        What am I missing?

        And something else I don't understand. I checked and I have 3v Leds, 10 per strips. Why every pair of strip (so 20 Led) take about 32v when powered up with my led tester 🤔
