Re: Bad driver(s)? Sharp LED TV
Ok.
So I threw a new Tcon board at it. Certified good used and working.
Photo 1 shows the "best" result with the original Tcon board.
Photo 2 shows the result with the "new" Tcon board.
It's not consistent. If the Tcon was malfunctioning I'd expect replacing it either to remedy the TV by replacing it. If it's not the Tcon i wouldn't expect it to change anything as it does. If it isn't the Tcon I'd expect the "same" malfunction.
To re-iterate: when disconnecting 2 ribbons from either side of the Tcon the TV shows a half white screen.
Reset doesn't get service mode. There is no visible menu. All video signal is missing. Audio is present.
