Hi All... Me again. Begging for help. The guy who now believes it's possible to fix a TV (one of the millions) one can find on the streets of NYC. I hate hate hate waste...
Thanks to y'all's help I fixed and am happily watching a 70inch Sharp Aquos. Perfect. Learned a lot, replaced LEDs. Pulled screen/panel. Proud.
This is a newer set. It's a Westinghouse Roku WR58UX4019. It was RIGHT outside my place literally, and I couldn't resist. 58in. 500$ new, but I'm not a rich man. So, I want to try.
There is sound. It turns off and on. Screen is black. I can hear the Roku clicks (I have no remote). There appear to be (what look like) two "stains" on the bottom L and R corners. Maybe water as it rained today. Backlights seeeeem to be lit.
As it is now (see photos) there are horizontal very skinny lines green and blue along the very bottom, maybe a 1/16 of an inch. Then, in the center there is a "chunk" of horizontal lines about 4 inches across that rise vertically about 5 inches.
I may be that what I AM seeing (the lines I described above) are just a matter of it being wet and this may get better if I allow it to dry - with help?
Any ideas? Should I go ahead and pull the back off and start checking the ribbons?
Anyways. I am all ears and thank you MUCH, in advance.
