Re: RCALED42C45RQ inverted pic

Ok, Thanks for all the help guys. I did swap the original eeprom to the second main board. The pic was still inverted. I gave up and got another 42re010c878lna0-a1 board and its still inverted. But the number "T420HVN01.1" does not match the panel number T420HW09-V0?

What eeprom do i need to order on SJ to convert the A1 09V0 board im using now? I wanna start with fresh software on a new U16 eeprom.

Thanks again guys!

I do still have the old board. Is this EPROM U16 by chance?

It might be worth a shot!

Re: RCALED42C45RQ inverted pic

The model number is RCALED42C45RQ if that helps.

hope there is a way to change or ill have to eat 50$ and order the proper board! I could only hope the firmware would fix this!

Hello guys, Fixing a 42 inch RCA LED TV for a friend, discovered a bad main board and ordered a second hand one off eBay. Installed it and everything works other that the pic and menu is upside down.

Would this be something reloading the proper firmware would fix? I went into the service menu but couldn't find a way to fix.

I suspect my second hand board is not identical? Also, could it be a bad TCON?

The old board is a T420HVN01.1 E13010018-1A00629

I checked for updated firmware on the RCA site and it said up to date so no luck downloading....
