Re: SHARP LC-70LE550U - side driver issue?
If the Tv works without the boards why are they there? It's like the tv is designed to fail

G WaTT did you remove the driver boards completely? I just got back to mine and used your method of peeling off the tabs then removed the boards and it looks pretty normal now. Hopefully it still works by morning that's when it allways failed before.

Re: SHARP LC-70LE550U - side driver issue?
there all tabs on the side, one on each board. Are you saying that all 5 tabs need to be removed? not just the 2 that are getting hot?

Re: SHARP LC-70LE550U - side driver issue?
update while taking the trim off, disconected a ribbon to get it going again and the bottom driver tab on the lower strip and the middle driver tab on the upper strip are REALLY HOT!! while all the others are cool. Anybody removed 2 tabs and still have a decent picture?

Alas this did not fix it, woke up this morning to the 15 second blink. I will try swapping the ribbons between left and right tonight when I get home.

Hopefully I found it, decided to clean the ribbons with alcohol while I checked there positioning in the connectors. On the short ribbon, the far outside finger where it inserts in the lower connector had a kink in it. I flattened it out by pressing a pencil eraser down on it against a hard surface. No glitches so far but last time it took overnight to fail again, got my fingers crossed.
Thanks for heads up about misalignment Budwich

Re: SHARP LC-70LE550U - side driver issue?
Hello, I have a similar problem on a friends tv. 15 second blink and no display. I traced it to the left side, if I disconnect the upper left side it works but distorted. There is no sign of overheated drivers on the tabs. I reconnected everything and it worked until I touched the folded ribbon that comes around the bottom left corner, looked like it was pinched by the connector. It worked overnight then back to 15 second blink. Anyone else had similar intermittent problem?
