    LG 42LB650V Screen dark

    Hi I have a LG42LB650V 3d tv around 5 years old. The picture now is darker from the top right corner 2/3 across the screen. It is watchable but infuriating. I have tried every setting in the book, dismantled and cleaned the ribbon cables on the main board to no avail. Any help very much appreciated.

        Looks like bad backlights. Usually causes them to flash in LB series. https://techhometravel.com/lg-ln-ser...ed-backlights/

          Besides dark area, there are also bright spots. Those are due to bad lenses and sometimes they even fall off.
          The replacement strips are very cheap on aliexpress. Get the ones with bottom aluminum layer, they will last longer.
          If you never done backlight repair, the process is quite involved and there is risk of damaging LCD screen or flex cables attached to it. Watch some youtube videos and be prepared.

            Thanks for the replies friends. Too much for me. Don't know the cost to repair in the UK.

                  70LE660U dark cloud or black screen with sound.
                  by Rozp
                  Hello Everyone,

                  This is my first post so I will try to be as precise as possible without making this post too long winded. Unfortunately I don't have pictures of the original problem but I included images of the TV internals.

                  I have a Sharp 70LE660U. The problem started a few months ago with the bottom row looking out of sync and was dark on the left side and then fading to transparent on the right side. Shortly after, a dark cloud appeared in the center of the screen. The dark cloud started small and shaded but the image was visible. It also affected the menu area....

                  Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
                  by Ryan.man
                  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...

                  Macbook Air M2 A2681 Kernel panics after screen replacement
                  by reformatt
                  Just had a customer bring in a M2 MBA A2681 that had had a screen replacement in April at another repairer. Since then, she has been getting intermittent kernel panics. It's an aftermarket screen, and of course it fails in diagnostics as the calibration hasn't been done. The error in the panic log is "No device added after powering on the rails".

                  It seems the original repairer has swapped the board and the screen to other MAC's, and said that it isn't a screen issue. From what I understand, by doing a quick search on Google, this is in fact a screen issue. The panic relates...

                  Sharp Aquos LC-70C6400U Half Screen Dark
                  by scubacamper
                  I found another post on this site the other day which has been very helpful in troubleshooting this issue I am having with my tv. The left half of the screen is dark, and the other half is VERY slow to generate it's image - and it only generates part of its image at that.
                  Based on this yt video, I have narrowed it down to an issue (short?) on the left side of the display, somewhere in the system of ribbon cables.
                  when I remove the bezel and the rear cover, I can get the image to display correctly by manipulating the ribbon cables on the left side which connects the left lower display...

                  iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
                  by smic717394
                  Hi,

                  I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...
