    LG 47LB6100-UG Flashing on & off

    If you have an LG 47LB6100-UG and your screen is flashing on and off, the backlights are blinking then it is caused by bad LED lights inside the screen.

      I fixed it. I fix lots of TVs but I have to say that fixing it right is a lot of work. The LEDs they use are cheap so to fix it right you have to desolder every LED and replace it with a high quality LED. The LEDs are not expensive but the time to replace them can seem like forever.

        Was it somewhat easy to get to the LED strip? I'm set up to do any job like that but if it's too time consuming, then its not worth the cost for me. Here is the CL post.

          I just took some LEDs from another TV and replaced the ones that were burnt out. I did not replace the whole strip.

            You can buy new LEDs on Aliexpress for $6 for 110 pieces shipped in 1-2 weeks. I have a 858D hot air station. Pop off the lens and you will need to remove the circular paper backing or it will burn. Remove the old LED. Apply flux and replacement LED. I use 400 degF for about 10 seconds. Replace paper backing and I put the lens back with crazy glue and zip kicker accelerator on the lens side. Lens needs to sit flush and exactly centered. You may need to scrape off the old black nubs. I test after each step with a LED tester.

            Update the firmware and make sure backlight level is set to 60-70 for ALL inputs.

              I try to set the lens on in the same position it came off so that it will be level. I also use super glue. And I use my small GAOYUE work bench heat gun, I bought it on eBay for about $40. I have a big hot air station but I hardly use that.

                I too have a858D hat air station and replaced individual LED on an entire strip. Actually four strips to repair a TV. It was time consuming but it was a job with much satisfaction after seeing it work. However, I have started to replace entire strips instead as it is a bit more costly but easier on my eyes and back. If I cannot get original new strips I do not buy used strips, at all as they would have some mileage on them and may not last. So I use universal strips that ARE new and just count the number of LEDs per strip to load the Driver as the original.

                  I would NOT buy the original LEDs that you have in the link, they are only going to die someday. My recommendation us to find ones that can take a harder workload.

                    I never posted a link for you.
                    They will ALL die some time or the other.
                    I just shred some of my years of experience with you, as courtesy.
                    I said that I only buy NEW LED strips and don't buy USED LED strips.

                      I did not say you posted a link, if you look that link was posted by neilc6. I was replying to his post.

                          Dell G3 15 3500 - Battery bug (black screen and flashing keyboard backlight)
                          by HTR-Informatique
                          Hello,

                          YouTube video of the problem encountered: https://youtube.com/shorts/q7TLNv36LUo

                          I am a pro and I have a problem that I have never seen despite my 7.5 years of experience on my own and my thousands of repairs, on a customer's Dell G3 15 3500.

                          On this PC I have already changed the complete palmrest because the keyboard was no longer working properly.

                          I also changed the screen because the PC fell and the screen was broken.

                          I changed the battery with a new and original battery.

                          I also had corrosion/oxidation on the...

                          Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
                          by Ryan.man
                          Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                          My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                          This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

                          by Sam Scarbo
                          I got this broken printer from my brother who got it from the street. He asked me to help to fix it.

                          I need help on fixing this machine.

                          Issues/Observations:

                          1) When connected to power, it's not working. Only showing blinking screen on the LCD. See pics 1 and 2. It is blinking every 2 seconds.

                          2) I pressed the buttons on the control panel to see if there is any response. The "Options" button can turn off the LCD screen, and then press hold the power button for about 1 second can turn the blinking screen back on again. Other than...

                          Hi guys
                          I'm trying to fix this laptop screen

                          Basically the owner is a computer shop and they brought it to me with two screens. They said the repair shop they use could not fix it, so I thought i would try to see if I am better than their current repairer!

                          OK so I have the original screen which works but has lines across the bottom quarter of the screen

                          I have the replacement screen, which they fitted and it worked. They then put the laptop on one side for a couple of weeks until they found a buyer. When they showed it to the buyer, the screen would...
