    FF 3.6.13 and NO circle w/ down arrow next to Type PDF, nor any link to Get Manual. I enable scrips for the site too, so it's not a script problem. Like I said, poorly designed site.

        I made a video tutorial video on how to fix black screens with blinking lights on LCD, LEDs, and Plasma TV's. . Check out the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbGiXqBAvvo

          This isn't a video on how to fix a TV; this is a demonstration on how NOT to make a video.

          1. Mount the camera on a tripod or at least get someone competent to handle the camera. The jerking around is distracting.

          2. Lose the background 'music'. You are making an instructional video, not a music video.

          3. Rehearse. The bit with the recessed screw was unnecessary - and distracting.

          4. A tip - on most TVs you will find an arrow pointing to each screw that has to be removed to remove the back.

          5. I was going to agree with your self-assessment at 4:55, but at least you did warn people to NOT buy the caps from Radio Shack. On the other hand, the claim about going up in voltage, and the failure to mention that the replacements must be low ESR caps left it close to the truth.

            I have been following this thread, as I have the same problem and the same unit as the first guy. I does not look like anything got fixed or diagnosed.

              Here's the deal. There perhaps a dozen of us regulars who help people with TV problems. It is now 9:37 PM. My day began at 4:30 AM. I am NOT going to read through all three pages of this thread to try to figure out what problem you are having.

              Post a clear, concise description of the problem and a single clear picture of the back of your TV with the rear cover removed. Attach it using 'Manage Attachments'.

                Sceptre U550CV-UMR 4K LED, Bad Caps on Main Power Board?
                by Dani_2024
                Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
                I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
                Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO

                Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...

                Sony xbr-65x900c main board issues?
                by jb_Bak
                Hey guys great forum glad to have found it. I bought a Sony XBR 65X900C cheaply because it didn't work. No signs of life at all not even a light/led. All I hear is a brief high voltage sound when I throw the power to it.

                Didn't see any obvious signs of damage so right away started checking voltages. This is what I see:
                Power Board Connector that goes to Main board
                CN6401
                Pin 01 NC
                Pin 02 NC
                Pin 03 "BL_ON": 0V
                Pin 04 "N/C"
                Pin 05 "STBY 3.3V": 3.5V
                Pin 06 "GND": N/C
                Pin 07 "AC_OFF"...

                Is it possible to upgrade from a Vestel 17MB97 main board to a 17MB110 Main board?
                by cheeky2
                I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
                Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection...

                Driving a Sharp TCON/panel with a universal main board
                by advant
                This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

                I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...

                Help Needed: Samsung UE55MU8000 Dead - Possible Main Board Issue
                by Asraf Atb
                Hi everyone,

                Im looking for some advice regarding my Samsung UE55MU8000 TV with main board model BN94-11606C. The TV suddenly stopped turning on and now shows no signs of life at all not even the standby light at the bottom.

                Initially, I suspected an issue with the PSU, so I took it to a repair center. They tested it and confirmed that the PSU works perfectly, even on other TVs. Based on that, I started investigating the main board.

                I disconnected the main board from the PSU, and the backlight turned on, which seems to confirm the main board is the issue....
