    SONY KDL46V5500 LCD half shorted!

    Hello everybody,

    While waiting for the parts for my other TV i took another one and after troubleshooting i found out that my power supply from T-CON board was defective. Had the 12V input but no output to LCD. Fuse was OK and so where all the caps.

    I order a new T-CON board and after installing no picture again, so i disconnected the right ribbon from T-CON to LCD and the screen turned on only whit half a picture of course, and the other half completely white.
    Measured on the V-ON on T-CON and had the correct voltage.

    If i connect the other half (left ribbon) or just this one i get no picture, only sound, and my T-CON voltage (V-ON) goes to 0V.

    Is my left side from LCD shorted?
    Is this possible to fix?

    I think it could be a problem on the small board where the T-CON connects to, There are some components on it but it is made of a sort of plastic like a ribbon.

    Thanks!

      Check those MLCC caps on the driver board, the board/s between the tcon and the panel for low ohms, expect over 100 ohms on those when testing with meter set to 200 ohms. Check with power cord UNPLUGGED, meaning no power going to tv.

          Nothing wrong with the caps. All over 200 ohm... What could it be?

              potentially the set might have tabs on each side of the panel .... note they can only be checked / viewed from the front (ie. need to remove the bezel / front plastic frame). A common problem for some sony's of this "design" is connections / panel integrity at the corner. I assume this panel has edge boards at the top of the panel base on my sony experience of another model. IF so, then the problem is in the top corner.

                  LG 82UN8570AUD ~ TCON or PANEL?
                  by kca
                  Hello all ~

                  Hope this finds you well. This LG 82UN8570AUD (April 2021 model) 4K UHD television has full audio capabilities but video is compromised / problematic.

                  When I picked up this large LG tv it had a full black screen upon startup. Previous owner said it just went black one day. No popping sound or anything else of note.

                  I got the display to work by taping off several traces of the right-hand side ribbon cable on the TCON that leads from TCON to PANEL. However, despite dozens and dozens of attempts to find the right combination / range of traces taped...

                  Sony KD-55AG9 TCON?
                  by bbrain
                  Hi,

                  I have this problem with my Sony 55' AG9.
                  It flashes 4x.
                  I have found the service manual, and seems it is the TCON.

                  Before I buy a TCON can someone check the vid?



                  Thanks in advance!...

                  VIZIO E70-E3 Half picture with half TCON
                  by Fly_Among_Stars
                  Hi,
                  I have a VIZIO E70-E3.
                  Symptoms: Black screen, no picture, but LED backlights are working.
                  I probed the power board and voltages are as listed on the board.
                  Main board appears fine, too.
                  I believe the problem is either a bad T-CON board, or connection to LCD, or bad LCD.
                  There are two separate ribbon cables feeding the LCD.
                  If both are connected, the screen is black.

                  If only the ribbon cable that feeds the right side of the screen (when viewed from the front) is disconnected, the left side of the screen shows picture and...

                  Sony KD-75XF9005 grey Picture but Sound. TCON or panel?
                  by iglitare
                  Hi,

                  i want to repair a Sony KD-75XF9005 TV that initially only showed a grey picture.
                  Backlight seems to work, Sound (Setup menu after reset) works.
                  If i dissconnect the left FFC cable from TCON to panel i have half a screen on the right. If left cable is connected always only the grey screen.
                  Interchanged the cables, its always only the right side that is working. Always grey if left side is connected.
                  With my small knowledge i would think at least the cables are good.

                  Can this happen because of a bad tcon board?
                  Or is it always a bad/shorted...

                  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...
