    LCD Panel Tester

    Are there any LCD panel testers out there? I was looking for one and saw a few that say they test panels, but they all appear to connect to the T-CON first. I wanted something where I didn't have to connect to the T-CON. Does something like that exist?

    **EDIT: I realize there's no standard for the pin-out from the T-CON to the panel driver boards / edge boards / whatever you wanna call them. I was thinking maybe there was some type of tester that could try to auto-detect the pinouts, kinda like my DCA meter does.

    Thanks!

      TCL 50S535 bad tcon or panel issue?
      by x_orange90_x
      Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

      General Questions on the Relationship Between Mainboard, TCON and Panel
      by mmartell
      My goal here is to be able to use boards on hand to swap into faulty sets when the faulty board is not obvious.

      I will start by asking what is the format of the output from the mainboard and is it generic in any way or does it vary by manufacturer and/or model ?
      ​
      And as far as I know a tcon and panel must be a matching pair because the timing of the signals and the voltages required to drive the panel are specific to the panel itself. (That may be a blanket statement that isn't true in some cases where the panel creates its own sub-voltages on its panel boards?)...

      Amazon Fire TV Omni K24NE5 tcon or panel bad?
      by Lee M.
      TV came on with BL on but blank screen. Disconnected one of the ribbon cables from tcon to panel driver board and now I have half of the screen working normally. Any way to tell if the problem is with the tcon or the panel driver board or the panel itself? Should I just replace the tcon and see what happens?

      Sony KD-65x8500b - bad Tcon or panel?
      by rimwall
      Hi, hoping for some views on this one which I've not come across before. The TV generates an image that has 12 noticeable bands across it. The image is still there and accurate, but the colour (or perhaps the brightness) changes gradually across each band which creates a noticeable 'step change' at the edge of each band. Given it's a 4K TV with 2160 rows of pixels, I'm guessing the 12 bands correspond to 12 gate drivers of 180 rows each. If this guess is right, then perhaps:
      a) all the gate drivers are malfunctioning the same way (which seems unlikely), or
      b) the Tcon board is malfunctioning,...

      Here is a good USB C tester that actually works first time you connect it to a device
      by sam_sam_sam
      Here is where you can find one

      https://www.ebay.com/itm/11450939852...53.m2749.l2649

      I am not getting paid for this recommendation nor was it a free item from the seller

      I have bought several USB A/C type testers are not worth a crap for USB C you have to connect it several times to a USB C device before it recognizes the device to me this is worthless

      The only downside of this tester is that it does not tell you what protocol you are accessing but this to me is not a very big deal because I would...
