You have to be specific when asking a question please. as you dont mention its a flodable LCD screen TV as I had to look it up. your problem is in the backlite circuit. if your a tech, you should have no problem finding this fault but could be a little trick if your not as your going to need to know how a back light circuit works, the parts in the circuit and know how to use a multimeter. Good Luck

Hi, Issue TCL 55" TV half of screen dark. Model 55ua57-w As mentioned the middle of the screen is dark. Can you suggest what might be the issue?

HI there do check all circuit boards in back cover for any blown fuses or other electronic components , If all good then you will have to remove LCD screen to test LED lights . switch TV on from standby mode and shine a LED torch onto screen with room completely dark if ICONS do display ,Then i wood recommend for you start off checking your power supply circuit board or driver board . A easy way of checking if LED lights are working again in a dark room with TV switched on look through back cover vent holes for any light shinning through small openings this would determine if some or all back LED lights are blown.

How do you get rid of the half black screen on westinghouse 40 inch led flat screen tv.

Hi,
it sounds as though some of your LED back lights are not running, you can verify this by shining a flashlight onto the dark area of the screen (in a darkend room)to see if there is a picture there but not back lit. If this seems to be the case it will most likely be the back light inverter/driver board, on some sets this function is carried out on the power supply board, have a look at shopjimmy for tech info on your brand:

I have had my 55" Vision for a year and a half. Today I was watching a movie and the picture went dark and audio stayed on. If I turned the TV off and then back on it would light up with no Vision logo...

Sounds like you have a backlight problem. To verify this, turn on the set and dim the lights in the room. Take a bright flashlight and shine it on the screen. If you see a faint picture, you either have a back inverter or a bad backlight bulb.

I have a proview lcd screen and it palys the tv shows in back ground but it's a dark screen like dark blue no picture. Volume and everything working but just no picture. What can i do.

Show a torch light on the screen for a distance, and if you can see the picture, the backlight is not lighting up. Check for its settings on the remote, if you have that option. Check also the settings of brightness/contrast/sharpness/color. If you still have problems, please call in a qualified service technician.

I turn tv on volume works but no picture?

The Inverter is bad - this is used to power the back-light of the screen. With a flashlight, shine the light on the screen to see if you can detect images. If you do, then that confirms a bad Inverter or the back-light bulb itself bad.

LCD TV has sound but no picture.

Shine a small bright light at the screen when on and see if you can see a faint picture in the dark screen. If you can then your backlighting is not functioning due to ccfl (inverter), power supply, or back light lamps.
