Re: Samsung LN46A500T1F Color Distortion problem

Yes! After two months the new board finally arrived. Hopefully had the ribbon 90° clips with it so replacement was easy. Turned on and everything seems right, no more solarized colors. I'm testing the board watching a couple Premier League matches. I thank you all for the help. If I did not found this forum I was lost with a non working HDTV. Thanks

Re: Samsung LN46A500T1F Color Distortion problem

Right. I'm ordering a new board. But it does include new ribbon retainers (the brown stuff there that hold down the ribbon contacts) I mean if then OK I should be more careful removing them. Just didnt figured out and accidentally broke one retainer (or it just was toast due to age / heat and when I forced out just came apart) anyhow, I'm waiting for the seller to confirm that have the board on stock and if they can issue the broken retainers (or how they're named). Any reference on how to successfully put them back on a new board?...

Hello

In need for some advice: got this same problem (solarization picture color) need to identify either is IC or Tcom. Have not opened it yet. Tried the first usual suspects:
1. Picture diagnostic test
2. Factory reset
3. Firmware upgrade? (Haven't found where to obtain it)

Have some pictures but I'm on a mobile device and have bad time trying to upload as attachments so I uploaded them to a shared folder, here:[url]https://www.dropbox.com/sh/791317y81af5y4t/AAABaXoC3ran1IvJ8Mcg0HXqa?dl=0[/url]...
