    LG 50la6230 backlight issue

    Hi guys,
    My Lg 50” la6230 has a backlight issue. Get the Lg logo but then nothing. Picture can be seen with a torch on the screen.

    The voltage from the Power board to each led circuit has ~ 110 volts when turning the tv on and all the LEDs light up but drops to 78-80 volts on both circuits. There are no obvious burnt LEDs and I tested each One individually with multimeter and they are all intact. The voltages to the main board are all ok. I have swapped the power board out for another one with the same issues.

    I have a feeling it is the backlights that I'm missing something on but not sure what it is??

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    You can power up the tv with the panel removed and video record the flash. If you go frame by frame, you should be able to see which ones are bad. Your multimeter isnt putting out enough current to properly test the leds. Better to replace them all with new since they all have wear.

      Can we at least see the pictures of the backside of the TV showing all the boards?
      What is the power supply board P/N?

        So I think I found the led with the issue. 3 strips not lighting up all on the same circuit. One Led looked a bit different to the others so popped the diffuser off and found this! When I tested the led on diode mode with the multimeter it was ok though? Was I doing it wrong?

        Is it better to replace all the strips in that series or just the one with the blown led?

          Better to replace the whole set of strips.

            iPad Pro 12.9 5th Gen Backlight Issue
            by cheebster
            Hello, got an iPad Pro A2378 12.9 5th gen with no backlight. Got another test unit without screen, tested the screen, still no backlight with the test unit.
            Figured out the backlight on the screen was bad, ordred a new backlight from mobilesentrix, *carefully replaced it* without damaging the lcd, oh well.
            Final result, issue is still there, the screen has no back lights. So i'm back to square one, with 3 hours less and 100$ out, issue still on the screen.
            The panel is still ok, i can see the apple in the middle of the screen when it kicks in, just no backlight.
            Anyone...

            TCL 65C715 backlight issue
            by Cornito
            Hello team,

            I'm back with another topic.
            It's a 65C715 TCL tv with backlight issue.

            But the problem is a bit strange.
            When I took this tv from the marketplace backlight didn't work but picture was ok.
            Back at home I checked with led tester if led are alive and I can find something different in term of voltage supply => nothing

            Putting all back together the tv worked fine for weeks. => Contact issue??

            Few moment later the tv has started to have backlight issue back, turning off and on worked sometimes and tv was working....

            TCL 43S435 NO BACKLIGHT ISSUE, LEDS TEST OK
            by thetonywarren
            I have a TCL 43S435 with no backlights. I contacted ShopJimmy and they said power supply. I got replacement power supply, but still doesnt work. I have confirmed that there is an image with flashlight test. I have also verified that the led strips work when I probe them with LED tester. Any ideas would be helpful. I am also geting a double blink on the status led when trying to turn it on......Nothing on the power supply looks suspect, and caps look ok. Where should I start to test......Thanks!...

            Razer Blade 2016 6700k 1060 RZ09-01952 suspected backlight power rail issue.

            Back Story
            I just recently purchased a RZ09-01652 Razer Blade 14 Touch v4(2016) as a project. I suspect the original motherboard had overheated and caused board damage to the vrm's for the CPU and GPU as now that motherboard works however will lockup on you often due to hardware clock issues.
            So after some research and looking at options for replacement motherboards I got a replacement RZ09-01952 razer blade 14 motherboard which has the 1060 vs the 970m that was in my original motherboard. I have contacted the seller about the motherboard being bad however I doubt they will be...

            by Superbee_dad
            Hello Sharp TV experts
            Our Sharp LC-80LE642U displays one short one long flash error code which is a backlight error. I went into service mode and there were 8 lamp error counts recorded. I reset the count to 0 and did a reset. The last monitor error cause was 16 B00014639:12. 16 is the code for backlight error. I tried to power the tv up but went back into error mode.

            > I checked voltages on the power supply board and they all check out .. including 3.28 volts at the error pin.
            > There is power to the cpu and T-CONN and no faults found there. The cpu has a flashing...
