Sharp LC-50LB371C LED TV VERTICAL LINES

[TV HELP]

Hello,

I’m new here and would love to get some help....I have a 5 year old Sharp LED tv with vertical lines.

So far I have removed and cleaned most of the ribbon cables with no change.....any help with the next testing steps such as voltage checks or? would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Could it be the t-con

I think it's a bad tab bond, try tapping on the bezel, NOT the screen where the line is, see if the line goes away or changes any.

Only repeating lines/patterns may be tcon issues. Single random vertical lines or bands are bad panels.

When I disconnect the 2 ribbon cables that leave the T-Con board and go to the panel the lines go away......not sure if this means anything?

How do I test the T-Con board to confirm it works or not?

Try wiggle or shake the video input cables, see if that helps.

if you detach tcon outputs its normal that lines go.away since there is no more signal, locate the tabs where appears bad columns, then put a shim under them, then warm the back of the chip so on the amber side with a sokdering iron

Re: Sharp LC-50LB371C LED TV VERTICAL LINES

yes.. so basically,, if you detach tcon from the large screen boards , then you flip them you see the green part of the tab where there is a chip, ok you must put a shim under it provisional, then you put eveeverything normal and you warm under the chip especially in the zone that makes appear again the missing lines, so this test at tv switched on, i have near reapaired one this way.

I took part of the bottom bezel off and discovered a sticky substance on one of the I believe their called tab bonds maybe someone spilled something .....could this be an issue?
