Re: Samsung LN40A530P1F whites tinted yellow/grey

I've tried changing the colour temperatur settings, it's a little better in cool1 and cool2 than normal. I thought the T-con might be going because of all the voltages around 10V, I thought it was supposed to be a smooth transition from low to high. Maybe it's just the way this panel is, do they ever yellow with age?

I've attached a picture next to my nexus 7 tablet with the same thing displayed, but its hard to capture the way it looks. The picture was taken with the colour temperature set to normal....

Re: Samsung LN40A530P1F whites tinted yellow/grey

Bump..

Can anyone confirm a bad T-con, if it is the T-con which chip is likely the cause

I've got a Samsung LN40A530P1F here that originally wouldn't power up, I've replaced all the bad caps in the power supply and it powers up fine, but there is a yellowish/grey tint to the picture. I've tried adjusting settings but I can't get rid of the tint, it's not horrible and the picture is watchable, but it's definitely there.

I'm suspecting the T-con board is the cause, I've taken these readings:

1-14.77
2-13.78
3-11.53
4-11.10
5-10.70
6-10.45
7-10.33
8-10.28
9-8.85
10-6.25
11-5.39
