nomoresonys[USER="71977"]nomoresonys[/USER] I tested the capacitors... -
I was all set to start buying CPB's to fix the issue, then I came across the "tech support" offer on ShopJimmy. I filled out all the details of my issue (see this entire thread). Within 90 minutes I received this reply from TV tech, Randy:
"shorted lcd screen, no fix for that. screen costs are as much as a new tv"
I figure they want to sell me parts, so an answer like this seems reliable.
Any thoughts out there?Leave a comment:

A few of us are tackling what appears to be this same situation in this thread:

In my research, this was also a fascinating find. It looked exactly like my scenario!

The tech even flicks the screen and gets the bright white flash, just like my panel does. I checked out the capacitators highlighted in this video and unfortunately my capacitors seem to be intact (assuming I'm wielding my multimeter correctly, which I'm not 100% confident about). So this particular proposed solution (removing a faulty capacitor) seems like a dead end, unless anyone else has some insight.In my research, thisLeave a comment:

I am also troubleshooting this identical issue, exactly as described by post #1 above.
I had some email interaction with Hisense tech support. They sent me a series of questions, which had mostly to do with attempting repair by disconnecting the power, resetting the device, etc (none of which helped). But one item they asked was new to me: is there a flicker of white light when the panel front is lightly tapped? [U]Yes[/U], I get that result. But they never replied to me, even after several re-attempts.
See attached photos with descriptions. Hopefully this helps anyone who might have...Leave a comment:
