Thank you; I was doing my measurements wrong all along and feeling like a fool now!

I assume CK8 jumper on the right and VGH jumper on the left to be taken off to stop the TV from rebooting but VGH worries me more. Hopefully I have something on screen as a result 🤲...

Apologies, you are right. Below are the measurements without strip and without connection to mainboard. >200M ones start counting from 50M and goes over what my multimeter can read. Perhaps a digital multimeter cannot read them correctly.

My photography skills are not any better but here you go...

There are no marked FB_TRDY_1 or 3 on the board but I put a jumper on the points highlighted on picture 1 (remember seeing them referred to as feedback test points). Unfortunately made no difference. It is just continuous loop with no difference on left/right of panel.

I only have two diode assemblies and they are both on the left hand side (pictured). Second one reads 1,2,4,5 correctly as a diode but the first one only reads 2,4,5 and reads nothing for pin 1. Does it worth putting a standard diode between 3 and 1 to allow current flow or am I just jumping to a conclusion too ear...

Thank you for the quick response.

I've seen both posts already. I've checked with thermal camera, nothing goes over 30 degrees.

Hello,

I've ended up with a Samsung QE50Q60T with the classic bootloop problem. I've read plenty tape solutions on these forums but never seen one that made me progress to an image. Perhaps the model number makes a difference.

I've tried the usual disconnect LVDS and disconnect left/right methods and TV boots with no image on both. What amazed me though, if I tape the pin that sends 7V VCOM voltage then the TV starts up normal but due to missing VCOM voltage the image is whitewashed.

I've disconnected left/right VCOM from each other with another sticky tape...
