Hi, I'm Carl and I stumbled on this forum while trying to figure out what went wrong with my Sharp Aquos LC-60LE810UN. I'm not really tv tech savvy, however, I'm not afraid to research, listen, and get my hands dirty. Last night watching a dvd the tv screen went dark and no sound. I had the 1-1 flashing on the inverted v and that was it. Reading posts here I held vol. down, channel up, and power simultaneously and now I have sound and dark screen with the faintest of a picture if you look closely and a solid power light on the inverted V. I can now turn the tv off & on normally w/o holding buttons down. Any input would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Carl

Hey everyone. I'm here trying to fix my vizio tv and I hope to find some useful information. I'm not familiar with TV repairs I figure I'd give it a go before dishing out hundreds of dollars for a brand new tv. Hopefully with everyones help, all will go well.

Wish me luck!

Hello. I'm a software engineer from California with no experience with electrical hardware.

I'm hoping to fix my LG LCD TV that recently stopped working. I've found some youtube videos, articles, and this forum but have not diagnosed the root cause yet.

I'm hoping to find some help here. Thanks!

Hello everyone, first post like the rest of you.. badcaps looks like just the place for me. I am an Aussie IT guy with a questioning mind and a bad attitude to fully sealed tamperproof casing. I try to give everything a decent chance to be repaired or regroomed before turning it into land fill. I do have some background in electronics, though it is from the deep dark past when resistors wore sideburns. I have come here in the hope of repairing a faulty Eaton UPS (among other things) , and refreshing my mind with some new electronic theory.

As this is a brand new forum, I thought I'd open up a thread to encourage new members to introduce themselves a bit.. now hey.. let's not get too personal.. ok ?

My name is sdudd, I have repaired many lcd tv's all being bad caps, one was a really tiny fuse but that was the only one that was not bad caps, I love technology and electronics. I have read many pages here and keep coming back for more information. I will be posting in the TV area more cant wait to meet some like minded and great people here.

Hello all
I stumbled on your site after doing a search trying to troubleshoot a temperamental lg tv. I'm a lover of learning, and frequently find myself scouring the Web for the knowledge it contains. Unfortunately, not all message boards are created equal, so I like to browse the threads on different forms to see if i can trust the information found there before I just start posting wily nily...bad caps members are courteous, knowledgeable, and friendly, and I like that you require individuals to introduce themselves before posting. It has a community atmosphere and makes me confident I will find what I'm searching for among it's members. Thanks for sharing your expertise, knowledge and time. ..

Hello, from Texas! Just a Master Guild Audi technician with R8 certifications, who loves to learn new tech to fix. Get tired of same old mechanical and electrical problems to fix in our cars these days so I fiddled with electronics from time to time since 5yrs ago when I fixed my old plasma TV when the screen went out! AND as we all know it had BADCAPS! Glad to find you guys and hope to learn a lot and hopefully one day be able to help a lot!
