    Sharp LC-70LE650U 2 slow/5 fast blinks

    Howdy, I'm new to TV and tech repair but I'm pretty handy, I've been following a couple other related threads to try and solve a similar issue with a Sharp LC-70LE650U I found in the trash. It is giving me the 2/5 blinking error code. I followed the steps on the Tech TipsPDF that RJ posted on page 1 of this thread:
    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...0LE732U&page=4

    I took off both ribbon cables from the TCon got the backlights to light up didn't see any physical damage to the panel. Reattached one ribbon (right side) and got half the screen to turn on, no cracks or damage visible meanwhile the blinking error code is NO longer happening. The tech tip sheet says if no physical damage is visible then there is a legitimate panel failure. I'm not sure what that means but I disconnected the right side and connected the left side and backlights don't come on at all and the blinking error code is back. Checked voltage from PD 1 at the main board to PL on the TCon board while both ribbon were disconnected and I got 12vdc at PL1&2 but 0 at 3&4. Checked voltage while left ribbon was connected (and error code blinking) and got 0vdc on PL3&4 and .03 on 1&2. Voltage check with right ribbon connected and left disconnected (no error code) and got 12vdc at PL1&2 and 0vdc at 3&4. And again with both disconnected (this time no error code) I get 12 at 1&2 and 0 at 3&4.

    So I guess my question is, is this a TCon issue or a panel issue? Or do I need to check something else? Any help y'all can offer would be great. Thanks,

    it is likely that you have a "panel failure" with one or more of the side tabs that are bonded to the panel. The voltages you measure only tell part of the story, the resulting picture / display on the screen during your "testing" tells more. Anyways, there are plenty of threads on this type of issue where people are able to "save" the set by removing the tabs. Search and read as the "save" is a "one way operation" of removing the bad tabs on the side in question. After the operation is done, the set will be basically as "good and new".

      On the side that shows the error there are side TABS that when removed can save the set but as budwich says this is a 'oneway' repair, they cannot be re-attached. This method has worked and has saved many sets from the junkpile.

          sharp LC70EQ10U 2 slow, 2 fast blinks

          Good morning... I'm new here and have a LOT to learn.

          I'm a rescue-er. I live in NYC and I don't even want to get started on the amout of stuff that makes it onto the curb, to be crushed and in a land fill, simply because our repair shops have been sold out and because - well, it's a disposable society... Anywho

          I have 1 motorcycle, 3 Jaguars and a Porsche that were all headed to the crusher due to a couple handfuls of needed parts and a Lil Love,,, I'm hooked on the rescue. A member of several forums and a huge fan of DIY environments such as this one. Hats off to you...

          Sharp LC-80LE844U Blinks 2 slow, 5 fast
          by joblo37pam
          It's been a while since I've checked in here or needed input on narrowing down what to replace on a TV repair, but I've got one on my bench now that has me wondering. The lack of part (board) availability means I may need to do some component-level diagnostics, and a second opinion is always good when it comes to that.

          The issue - Sharp LC-80LE844U does not display. Power light comes on for a while, then you can hear a relay click off and the light blinks twice slow, then five times fast. Service manual points to 'Panel Power Supply Error' with this code, but isn't much more help...

          Sharp Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
          by scubacamper
          I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
          Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
          when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

          I will describe my problem with a TV in those short following terms to be the most precise :

          What i have :
          Sharp Aquos LC-60LE635E
          power board DPS-162KP-1
          main logic board QPWBXF733WJN2

          symptoms :
          white led light logo at startup,
          after 2 minutes, blinking 3 times a row, repeating
          no backlight (and apparently no picture, checked panel with flashlight)
          no startup sound

          powerboard investigations :

          1-2 PNL : 0v
          3-4 GND
          5-6-7-8 UR : 13.15v
