    Samsung un55ku6500fxza no picture, backlight glow.

    Working on a un55ku6500fxza. Plug in - screens "Smart TV" for a few seconds. Screen and backlight go off. Only backlight comes on. Does not respond to button on back.

    So i think we can safely say that power supply/backlight leds/t con are all good.

    Anyone have any insight on this model? Kinda feels like a main board/firmware issue but it is not giving me much to go on.

    The only thing i have found is a youtube video where he bridges the t con fuse, but he doesn't not get the Smart TV screen. So i dont see that icon fuse being the issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtQON6amnck

    Test connector from mainboard to powerboard on powerboard side with all boards hooked up, test with tv plugged in but off then hit power, report both conditions here, give pin number, pin description/name and condition both off and when you hit power on. So we can see all the voltages and what they are doing. Try to do test just as instructed, example in second link below if needed.

      Please upload good clear pictures of the whole back side of the TV showing all the boards so we can see what we are dealing with.
      What is the P/N of the power supply board?
      We need pictures of the connector of the power supply that goes to the main board so we can see the pin label which you will need to take the Voltage reading for each pin, make sure to put down pin name and follow by the Voltage reading so we can easily see what is there and not there.
      "Does not respond to button on back" That does sound like the main board is locking up. Does it have WiFi card that you can disconnect to see what will happen?

        Ok sounds like a plan. Just got started on it so i dont even have it torn down yet. I would imagine it has a wifi card since it does netflix and what not.

          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

          Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
          by Ierwin
          Hello everyone,
          Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
          The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
          He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
          I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
          Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

          Samsung UE43NU7122 has Picture, but no Backlight
          by Fenzon
          Greetings fellow DYIers, the moment I discovered this community forum, nostalgia has hit me pretty hard, this early web 2.0 look and feel is close to home. I can't describe my happiness seeing active forums that survived today, and its not just yet another centralized propriety subreddit.

          Before I describe my issue with this particular TV, I would like to let you know that I do have basic electronic competence, and some electronic component knowledge. I also am an electrical installation technician student, although we exclusively study alternating currents and our primary...

          Samsung Odyssey G9 (c49g95tssr) no picture or backlight. Power LED shows
          by grimreaper420
          hey guys,

          i bought 2 samsung odyssey g9's for a decent price. they both have the exact same fault. when plugged into a power source, the blue led powerlight shows, but when turned on there is no picture, no backlight, no menu, nothing. when plugged into a laptop the laptop recognises the monitor, but keeps disconnecting and reconnecting.

          dont have any schematics or diagrams unfortunately. any ideas?

          thanks
