Re: Lg led led no picture now

I did push it in the first time. That is what damaged the flat cables. The contacts pealed back. The second set of flat cables I put in right flipping up the latch sliding it in and closing it.

Yep. Back light is working fine.

Re: Lg led led no picture now

It would just be a picture of a black screen.

Both PS do the same thing.

Checked the tabs (which are the thin ribbons coming out of the screen, right?) None are torn or or loose from the boards.

Checked all the cables.

Tried the disconnect one ribbon cable from the t-con to see if I got a half screen difference. No change.

Even though the screen shows no damage could it have flexed too much while we replaced the LED?

The tv is a lg 39ln5700. The screen did have an image with the flash light test. At first we thought it was the power board. We replaced it with no difference.

After reading more here I found a way to test the LEDs to see if that was it. Yep.

Got the 4 strip pack and replaced the 2 bad strips. Before reassembling check to see if it worked. Yep we have light. Reassembled the tv, turned it on and a bunch of vertical lines. Brighter strip in the middle.

Check the ribbon cables and the ends were damaged. Got replacements for those. No difference. Read...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

I'm Nick. I'm trying to help my son fix his lg lcd tv. First it was the back light we thought it was the power board but it was the LEDs instead. We got the new LEDs in and the back light works now. When we reassembled it and turned it on the panel only showed vertical lines. Now I'm trying to figure out what we did.
