    RCA LED46C45RQ,Sound but no Back lights

    Sound no picture RCA LED46C45RQ,Power Supply Board RE46HQ1301.
    Has All voltages coming from main board.No voltage going to
    Back lights from power board.Have no Schematic.Back lights work when
    Led Back light Strip tester is used.Tester shows 110 volts from each
    side.Also if you use the side controls and use the vol +or- tv shuts
    down.
    Thanks for any help

    You have 0v at led connector when you power on?

      Re: Sound but no Back lights

      Your LED tester may not detect the bad LEDs since it runs at much lower current than the TV.

      Every RCA LED TV I've encountered had bad backlights if it turned on with no backlight or flash of backlights. Impossible to get new LED strips for them so I repair the individual LEDs and turn down the backlight level as low as possible in the service menu. Menu-1-1-4-7 or source-2-5-8-0 under panel settings. I've encountered models where lowering the backlight didn't save or I couldn't adjust it with the remote cursor buttons. Some do have energy savings picture mode which run the backlight a little lower than max.

            So power board is bad. Need to check components in led circuit.

                    And you are getting your BL_ON voltage? Need to check ds2 and ds2a for shorts. Also need one good picture of whole back of board.

                            Which board? Power supply? Main?

                                I suspect you are not getting the BL-ON voltage from the main board to turn on the back light circuit

                                  Also I noticed that when tv starts up I get voltage at connector going to back light and then the voltage drops off (new board)

                                    What does the BL-ON voltage do on CON4 when the tv is first turned on? does it stay the same level when the backlights are on and then turn off?

                                    You likely have a bad led in the panel. one bad led will trigger the backlight protection circuit to shut down.

                                          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                          This happened last Saturday and today I finally had time this morning before I went to work to replace two non brand capacitors

                                          I will let you be the judge weather or not these are bad or not according to the blue ESR meter that I am using

                                          I am comparing them to a brand new one that I installed

                                          The display came back on and the programming was not lost which I was surprised by I would have thought that when the display went blank that so did the memory as well

                                          This forum has been in great help to me, but I stumbled upon a strange problem with a salvaged Samsung TV that I am banging my head to troubleshoot.

                                          As I said earlier I have some issues with the TV I got from a friend of mine. The TV had no picture, but sound, back light and everything else was working fine.
                                          It was sent to an authorized service for repairs and returned with the...

                                          My LG tv started going dark a few seconds after powering on. I replaced the led back lights after doing the flashlight test. The problem I am having now is the bottom of the screen is really bright and the middle to the top of the screen is darker. I can actually see the individual leds at the bottom of the screen. Not sure why that is. I've tried lowering the backlight setting but I can still see the led's at the bottom, and the middle to the top of the screen gets even darker.

                                          Hello to the forum.

                                          My name is Christos, I am new to the forum here and i am posting from Greece.

                                          So i have this old German sound card from Marian, called Trace Alpha. To be exact i have 2 of them and i use them professionally for my small FM radio station here. The first one works like a charm, but the second one does not work at all.

                                          To be more specific in the same exact pc with windows 7 (i even tried 32bit) the one works while the other doesn't.

                                          So i tried asking for a schematic from the company and they would not give me one. Instead they...
