    LG 50PA6500 Streaky shadowy picture

    As the title says I have an LG 50PA6500.The original problem was no power up.Diagnosed and replaced Main pcb.
    Powers up,sets channels. The LG splash screen and crystal cube "no signal" screens look fine and clear.
    With actual videoTV/HDMI the video has streaks and shadows that look like burn in.
    The on screen menus lso look translucent and streaky.
    Question,are the splash screen/no signal screens derived from the same board as the video?Or are they generated from the T-con board?
    I have seen fixes such as reflowing the coils on the X&Y boards.Did that no change.
    Did I get a bum main board or do I still have a gremlin working?
    I don't know if I have permissions enough to post pictures but I will when I can.
    Thanks for any troubleshooting info.

    With the tv unpluged, disconnect the flat cable between the main board and the control board (P231). Then short the two pins on the conrtrol board labeled EXT_AUTO_GEN and plug in the tv, this will generate test patterns and if they are good, the fault is likely the main board, IF they are still bad, check the panel voltages, Try adjusting the RAMP_UP & RAMP_DN (mark the control positions with a felt pen before adjusting)

      That is how I found out the initial main board was bad. It did display the test patterns.I had it face down on the bench and didn't notice if the display was doing like it is now or not.

          T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
          by Tr0ll
          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...

          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
          ...

          Issue with picture quality of Sony bravia TV
          by CyberPhoenix
          Hello, Last week I bought the 50" Sony X80j tv everything was working fine, untill I plugged the tv in a ups power supply 650va the tv remote control became unresponsive and the TV became laggy after a while the picture quality isn't the same as before the tv seems less brighter and the picture is somehow blurry, people's faces don't look as natural as before, there is a mini orange-pink tint to the edge of people's faces especially in NETFLIX Dolby Vision like in One Piece ep1 Alvida skin tone, my intention was to protect the tv but something went wrong I checked the ups with a multimeter,...
