Re: No picture on a Philips 42PFL7403D/27 and got stuck removing the T-Con board

Since no one dared to provide a single comment, I'm glad to report that I have found a way to reach n remove the T-Con board by removing few screws holding the top of the subframe.
Have found blown SMD 3A fast acting fuse on the T-Con. Tried to replace it first with a regular fuse and that has fried the PSB. Got both boards (used) on eBay, replaced them and I got the TV to work tonight. Buying used TV parts has its shortcome: I have to send back the first $19 T-Con board for it was sold defective...

I am trying to check the T-Con board for any visual defect in an attempt to revive a dead LCD TV. Both PS and SS boards showed no visual damage and they were easy to remove. The T-Con board though seems to be under a riveted subframe holding both PS and SS boards. Before proceeding to remove it all, I was wondering if there is an easier way to access it.(Shown on 1st picture)
No indication in the Service Manual for this TV set on how to remove the T-Con board. It is shown as an intrinsic part of the subframe or the LCD panel.

I spent some time trying to figure out what is wrong...

Hello
Learned quite a bit browsing the different posts. Trying to update my electronic skills and figure out what is wrong with a couple bad LCDs I talked my self from not disposing of.
Cheers to you all.
