    Samsung UE55JU6800 Issue with new backlight

    Hi all,

    Recently bought faulty Samsung UE55JU6800 which when collected was faulty and was not turning on or at least there was jo picture on it. After taking it home and turning it on the TV was working fine.

    However, there were dark spots all around just like faulty backlight looks like. After replacing the backlight for new one, there is the same issue where black spots can be seen at the point of each led.

    Any advice ore recommendations what could be the possible issue? Could it be cheap backlight i got from china?

    Thanks in advance.

      looks to me like you wound up with junk replacement backlights, you have the diffuser sheets in the right order?

          I placed back diffuser sheets back as they were, yes. Even tried different order to see if anything changes without luck. Only thing I could think of are cheap backlight strips I got.
          Never had such a problem before with other TVs but always had bad luck with repairing Samsung TVs

              it is strange, it kind of seems like the lenses are not letting the light out properly? did you compare the strips to your old ones?

                  It seems like that... Do you mean if I compared the model numbers or something else? I believe I ordered per model number of the strips. By the way, this is the first time I ordered strips directly from china, AliExpress to be more precise...

                      Did you put the plastic stand-offs back on? I’ve seen them melt from the heat also and cause the diffuser sheets to sit lower and cause this issue

                          @Storyteller12 yes, all plastic stand-offs are back in place. I didn't see any melting when I was replacing the backlight. I've seen that too before but this one is new to me that every single LED is visible as a black spot

                              Yeah me to. Never seen everyone like that unless stand-offs were missing or melted.

                              Has to be the lens on backlights were not placed correct from factory then.

                                  Is it possible the first thick diffuser is reversed? There should be a smooth side and a rough side, which side is toward the led's?

                                      That is what I am thinking as well. I attempted fixing single LED diodes before and I do know how easy is to misalign the lenses. If they are not perfectly centered they are visible as dark circles. But dark circles and these darks spots are completely different.

                                      I am now really thinking to order another set of backlights here from the UK and see if that changes anything.

                                          I cannot confirm which side is facing LEDs but I remember I tried rotating it and it made no difference to me.

                                          The sad story is that I already took apart this TV 2 times and I think it will need the 3rd one as well.

                                              Hello All!

                                              So here is the issue I am having. When everything is plugged in as normal, the TV turns on and I get a quick flash of the backlight. After that the backlight never turns back on but the rest of the TV works fine. If I pull the PWM pin from the cable between the main board and power board the backlight turns on and the tv works "normally". If it is plugged in I get nothing. I did do a factory reset but that didn't solve my issue. When everything is plugged in normally I get .6v at start up and continues rise over about 10 seconds. (~.6v then ~.8v then ~1.8v...

                                              Hello Team,

                                              I'm back with another backlight issue that I thought was simple, but it turned out to be more complex than expected.

                                              Let me provide a brief history: The TV was working well, then one day, the backlight started and shut down. I thought I had an LED issue leading to this behavior, so I replaced the LEDs with brand new ones. However, the issue remains the same.

                                              Next, I replaced the electrolytic capacitors attached to the LED power supply, but the results were the same. I then replaced the driver, a OB3365RP, and did it twice due to the same result....

                                              Hi All,
                                              I have a Samsung Un65eh6000 with a backlight issue.

                                              The original issue was backlight current was present but led strips did not light

                                              I tested the backlights and all tested to be working properly.

                                              I assumed then that the power supply was not sending current to the led strips.
                                              Power supply board part number BN44-00560A.
                                              After checking voltages it appears that current output at connector CNL802 was outputting the correct current 189 VDC on pins 1,2,6, and 8.

                                              The issue then was there was no ground on the connector...

                                              Samsung UE48JU7000 screen issue after backlight replacement
                                              by ScHAmPi
                                              Hi all,

                                              Because of two bright spots and a couple of dark spots I decided to replace the backlights in my Samsung UE48JU7000. See attached photos:


                                              I thought all went well, but after full assembly and testing it out it turns out not all is fine. The backlights are completely fine but I have some weird issues on the right half of the screen. Since I didn't really touch the T-CON board (apart from taking out the ribbons of the display and reconnecting them on assembly) it would be weird that the issue is with the T-CON board... But based on the behavior of the service...
                                              The before

                                              by cheebster
                                              Hello, got an iPad Pro A2378 12.9 5th gen with no backlight. Got another test unit without screen, tested the screen, still no backlight with the test unit.
                                              Figured out the backlight on the screen was bad, ordred a new backlight from mobilesentrix, *carefully replaced it* without damaging the lcd, oh well.
                                              Final result, issue is still there, the screen has no back lights. So i'm back to square one, with 3 hours less and 100$ out, issue still on the screen.
                                              The panel is still ok, i can see the apple in the middle of the screen when it kicks in, just no backlight.
                                              Anyone...
