Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
Not sure about this one but my older kdl that just needed firmware update didn't have sound or anything just stuck in color patterns, you might have a bad capacitor or something on the mainboard??

Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
Ok,
regarding the update attempt,,the usb light flashes intermittently but the color cycle and music continues as normal.
Its as though the tv is working as normal in the background.Leave a comment:

Yes, could try hitting those with some contact cleaner, maybe clean the tcon or ribbon cables going to the panel if no stand alone tcon, with isopropyl alcohol and a q-tip, never force off the connections they will come easily when released properly, just a warning for those that may not know, have seen some here ruin them by forcing them off by not releasing them correctly.Leave a comment:

Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
It may be stuck in purity check mode, I got stuck in that mode once years ago and had a hellova time getting out, my own fault because I hit purity check in service menu, also had the solid color patterns like that on an older sony kdl which needed a firmware update to correct it.Leave a comment:

Maybe a variation, like hold power button on tv while plugging in see if a display comes up then release power button, sometimes little variations of a procedure will work. If it does bring up a service menu, be VERY careful what you do in there, easy to brick a tv if change wrong settings, good idea to write down or take a picture of settings so they can be changed back if needed.Leave a comment:

Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
Sometimes when tv does this and nobody was messing around with the service menu, it may be mainboard issue.Leave a comment:

Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
Try remove the power cord from the wall, then press and hold the power button on the TV itself (not the remote) for 20 seconds. Then plug the set back in and power it up.Leave a comment:

On the update using usb, you need to follow the procedure exactly as they instruct, maybe try a different usb stick if not successful with the first one, firmware and instructions are there, scroll down, read carefully, sometimes it doesn't take on the first try: https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/s...loads/00016209Leave a comment:

Re: Sony kd 43w8307c stuck in screen test mode.
Hi,thnx for your replies.
The indicator light is white on power on.
Maybe thats the way it normally is,? not sure.
Anyway, this morning I was trying a few combinations and now I can hear some kind of intro music playing.
The tv responds to most keys volume etc but still cycling through the colors.
I have seen a solution where the poster cleaned the lvds cables.
Most people seem to have success exiting this mode without removing back cover so I am trying to exhaust all possibilities first.
Im sorry its kd 43x8307c ..My apologies.Leave a comment:

Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!
My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.
This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen... -
Hi friends,
TV has stuck at - as I googled the term - color test mode. Slowly flashing colors white, red, green, blue, black, over and over again. I tried some hints from internet, like pressing some remote buttons, but nothing worked. I also tried factory reset for Sharp TVs => "while holding vol– & input buttons on tv plug in set when “k” appears push vol– & chan- " , but TV doesn't even start during buttons pressed.
So I decided to flash new firmware to SPI ROM. What do you say, would it help? If so, where can I find some dump? I was unable to find... -
Hi everyone.
Lenovo Thinkpad E14 Gen 3, stuck on the "To interrupt normal startup, press Enter" screen.
Found a lot of people with this issue, but with no definitive answer. Some people managed to get away accessing BIOS, going to Startup and turning off "Option Key Display". For me that only removed the interrupt normal start up message, leaving only the Lenovo logo.
Most people say hitting Enter does not work. It's true, if you wait a few seconds. But if you hit Enter right away you get the options to enter BIOS (which works), run diagnostics (goes to a... -
Panasonic tx-55cx802b stuck on panel test mode.
It was working normally but few days ago some of the LED reflectors fall off.
I've opened it up carefully, re-glued, while it was open switched it on to test LEDs.
Then carefully assembled back.
After plugging in to power remote does not work.
Using power button on the TV it turns on but gets itself into a panel testing mode: white, gradient, red, gradient, blue, gradient, green and so on switching between colours.
Anyone knows how to get out of this panel testing mode?
I've tried so... -
Dear colleagues,
I've entered the repair of the chromebook machines just one month ago and I've found some significant differences from the classic laptops or macbooks, so I'm searching some advices.
The owner of this chromebook gave it to me after it has been left flooded by water for almost a week, so chances of repair were not so high, the mainboard was oxidyzed in many spots but I made a nice cleaning, resoldering and component replaging work and now it is almost working.
Among other things I've cleaned many spots from oxyds, reballed CPU, EMMC, EC, replaced...05-07-2025, 06:10 AM
