    HItachi 55" panel has reddish tint

    I've read that CCFLs can have a reddish tint when they are going bad. Is there any other cause for a redish tint when the screen works fine otherwise?

    The screen is about 3yrs old.

    Anyone know the pricing on CCFLs for a 55" panel, and where I can get them?

    Thanks!

      I don't have more info yet. I'm thinking of buying it from someone who just wants to get rid of it and I'm trying to determine how hard it's going to be to fix and what a fair price would be to offer.

        Request: Firmware for Hitachi 42HXT12U (Vestel 17MB95M, VES420UNDL Panel)
        by Bazilwrc164
        Hi all,




        I’m looking for a USB firmware file or EEPROM dump for a Hitachi 42HXT12U TV.

        The mainboard is a Vestel 17MB95M, and the screen panel is VES420UNDL.




        I recently replaced the mainboard with another 17MB95M, but it’s programmed for an LC420DUJ panel, and I’m getting no picture. I’d like to flash the correct firmware via USB or update the EEPROM if needed.




        If anyone can provide:
        • A working USB firmware file (like upgrade_loader.pkg or mb95_m.bin)
        • Or a compatible EEPROM dump

        LG 49UJ6500 LCD panel lighter band that goes away
        by howardc64
        49UJ6500 LCD panel has a lighter band on top when first powered on. Goes away (or gets much fainter) after TV on for a few min. After powered off for awhile and power back on, same band appears. If powered on immediately after powering off, no or much fainter band. Running the latest firmware.

        Disassembled the TV and lifted the LCD panel during testing. Band is on the LCD panel (can see the band on the panel as I lift it slightly) Backlight is perfectly even at the top edge. Double checked LCD panel alignment in the frame and is perfect but since band moved with the panel, its on...

        SAMSUNG UN50TU8000F rebooting, backlight ok. No 12v to panel boards.
        by triplefour
        TV flashes backlight then reboots over and over. no image. Client said it used to have image for a bit before rebooting. Got worse over time.

        tcon is built into mainboard.
        Only one cable goes to panel boards.
        there is a cable from one panel board to the other that links them.
        cost cutting measure that results in us having harder time to diagnose.
        removing the link to the second panel board allows TV to stay on with stable backlight but no image.
        used cut off tape method to mask 1 maybe 2 pins on the side of the cable that goes to that second panel board....

        QN55Q60R Service Menu Panel Help
        by Storyteller12
        I had a the above tv qn55q60r that had a bad panel but everything else good. I had another panel here from un55nu6900 with bad leds and melted diffusers.

        I put the nu6900 panel in and powered it up and it does work but there are lines vertical lines.

        I was trying to change the panel type in the service menu but don’t see my exact panel. Anyway to fix this or someone have similar experience.

        the clear picture is the panel type from the service menus on the nu6900. The other 1 is the panel type that was set for the q60r with the bad panel....

        Missing LCD Panel Voltages VGH, VGL, VCOM (TCL 55P6US Sound & Backlight but NO Picture)
        by maneatingmonkey
        I have a TCL 55P6US with sound and backlight but no picture. This model does not have a T-CON board, and the right (rear perspective) panel board is fed from the left panel board. I have not been able to induce any change by disconnecting the secondary panel board or the tape cut-off method on the primary board.

        There are a bunch of voltages missing on the panel boards. I can't find any shorted caps of the panel boards, and all of the missing voltage rails read in the kiloohms, which leads me to suspect the issue may lie on the circuit board, rather than a short in the panel.
