    Screen dimmer in recent months, weird symptom: EPG screen goes bright! LG 19LD350

    In recent months the screen has been getting more and more dim. If that was all, I'd suppose the problem would be the backlight (LED? LCD?). But I've noticed this really weird symptom: switching to the EPG screen restores normal brightness! And then, even weirder, when I go back to the programme, for a moment the programme is at normal brightness and over the next 1-2 seconds it gradually dims down again.

    Last time I looked in a TV it had EHT flyback, so I'm no expert. I do sometimes repair computer monitors and power supplies, most often when there's bad caps.

    Anyhow, in my ignorance, I thought maybe the fault was due to some problem in the power supply. A replacement board from a salvage company was only a tenner. However, replacing that the fault is still identical.

    It's an LG 19LD350 19" TV. Any suggestions, please?

    Is auto dimming turned off?

      Thanks for following up. I can't recall. It will be 2 or 3 days before I can check, I'll reply then.

        Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
        by Ryan.man
        Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

        My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

        This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...

        MacBook Pro A1398 L2013 weird jumping screen.
        by ahoonid
        Hey everyone.

        I have a 820-3787-06 board from a MBP A1398 which has a screen issue. The problem starts with a bit of noise just like old TVs when booting and when the OS is on, screen jumps are added to the little noise on the screen. The jumps are millisecond and go back to the original place.

        Since there's a little crack in the corner of the screen, I thought it has to be the display. But to my surprise it wasn't since I tried it with a fully functioning screen.

        The same issue isn't happening with an external display. I did a gpu/cpu stress test on external...

        iphone XS turns off when press on screen.
        by smic717394
        Hi,

        I have a iphone XS that came in for a screen replacement, the screen was badly cracked, and inside missing scues, on the back of the screen still the blue protector, the screen was a LCD. So we replaced the screen and all good, installed the screen and we noticed that pressing the screen with a bit of force but not excessive, the phone dies. After plugging the charger it turns back on, but again if you press it it dies. I open the phone again, and I can't see anything major, with the phone open, if I press on the logic board, battery, charging board, or even putting pressure on...

        Samsung UE55JU6800K half screen dark
        by Chrissygizmo
        Hello everyone, I’ve just been given a Samsung UE55JU6800K smart tv as it had white spots on the screen due to the led lenses falling off. After refitting them & putting the tv back together I thought it was a nice easy fix for a free bedroom tv , then I tried it before screwing the back into place. I realised that the right side of the screen was darker than the other side, I removed the screen again as I thought the backlights had failed but they are fine.
        I put the screen back in place & turned it back on . The screen seemed to be ok again but different screens on the same...

        Trying To Fix: Samsung UN50TU7000 - Weird Fading Screen then Red blinking light
        by KYBOSH
        Picked this up to resurrect.
        When I plugged it in it comes on for about 1 minute... after a minute the screen blacks out and I gets blinking red lights on the power button.
        I read that a common issue with this model is a failed BGA so I ordered a replacement on eBay.

        Sometimes the TV would produce an expanding blob on the screen before going black.

        I ordered a replacement board off of eBay and installed it tonight and got the same behavior.

        Did I get another defective board or is there an issue with...
