    LG LED TV 65UH5500 No picture

    Hello! I Have a LG 65UH5500 that shows the LG logo for a split second after being plugged in, then goes black and the power led blinks. I understand the led strips can cause this and want to start troubleshooting the right areas. I'm concerned because I have not been able to see anything with the flashlight test, or produce any audio. Any suggestions? Short video of the problem:

    I was under the impression that when the led strips are at fault, you can at least see a faint image with the flashlight or get sound?

    Most likely failing backlights. Some models shut down the backlight only. Your model may shut down the tv when a poblem is detected.

    Not easy to remove a panel without cracking it from a 65 inch tv to get at the backlights.

      My approach for handling large screens is to deal with them vertically. After removing the bezel and securing the edge boards, I raise the whole TV almost vertical with the top edge of the TV on the floor, and then lift the LCD panel away by its corners. Then I lean the panel against something, thus keeping it always vertical. To reinstall, I bring the TV close, again tilted almost vertical, and lift the panel by the corners onto the TV and then lay the unit back down. I have managed up to a 70" by myself so far.

        before you go too far too fast.... try disconnecting, one at time, the tcon to panel cables and see what happens on power up. Go from there.

          T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)

          Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

          The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

          Original T-con:
          Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

          First replacement T-con:

          I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

          SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
          by JJAAMM
          This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

          Problem
          TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

          LED problem on samsung UE55F6475, 2 strips work. The rest is flashing every second.
          by Kingfreddie
          Ok.. this is the story:
          Have an old Samsung LED 3D TV (UE55F6475). First it started to lose light on the lower 40% of the screen now and then. Like for 10-60 mins and then it would work again. Then a bit later it just got stuck in that position. The lower 40% of the screen is dark, and it gets progressively darker the lower u go so it's obviously that LED strips where not working. I also looked for similar errors online and saw an exact copy and on that one it was faulty LED strips.

          This is kinda how it looked, just that mine were at the bottom of the screen:

          Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
          by TR103
          Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
          - sound and backlight, but no picture
          - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
          - it keeps rebooting
          - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
          - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
          - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

          - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

          Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
          by Mgiffune
          I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

          I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and
