Tcon issue? Powers on Sony symbol shows on screen and backlight comes on. Goes black has image with a flashlight. Green power light stays on and red standby light is solid red no flashes. From what I have read it sounds like the Tcon is bad. Manual says if tcon doesn't process RGB signal then back lights won't power on. Looking for some input before I purchase any parts. Thanks

Back - light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis.

In some models of LCD TVS; the backlight inverter and its T'Con board will be a part of the panel itself, and will be a built-in type inside the LCD panel. If so, they can't be replaced. In this case; a panel replacement is the only repair. For some other models, the backlight inverter section circuit will be a part of the main power supply regulator [SMPS]. To such sets, the power supply section circuit too should trouble shoot. Contact any service technician. The circuit will differ with models and versions.

Sceptre hktv83ac black screen no image

A lot of people miss understand how the backlight circuit in the power supply works, you will get voltage testing to ground as its the B- side that's switched, the chassis ground and backlight B- are not connected. If you tested each LED strip and they're all good there has to be something else going on other than the typical backlight issue we see on so many LED sets.. I'm not an authorized service center for this brand TV so I don't have a service manual, if this set has separate power board and main test the bl_on pin on the power supply, you should have around 3.5 volts there, that's what tells the back light section of the power supply to turn on.If you don't then it's a bad main board

I have a LE49A509 Hitachi Television that will turn on but the screen is black. At least the blue light comes on and stays on but no picture at all. What is wrong and how can I fix it

Do flashlight test to see if you can see a picture. If so the issue is with the tcon board. If no picture with flash light issue is with the inverter board that powers the led's.

TV powers on and goes black.

first i'd say try all the normal things...

swap sources, check to see if the osd comes up, etcetera. it might just be that the tv isnt receiving a signal from the source its tuned to. see if theres a way to factory reset the tv, try it.

if no matter what you do nothing shows up...

maybe the backlight burned out or maybe something on the mb burned out. go over and sniff the tv, notice any smell? if this is the case, i dont suggest trying to fix it new screen.

Possibly fried screen


This is probable the lcd backlight inverter. If you have sound then look at the screen up close with a flashlight and see if there are images. If you can see images then the back light has problems and it is most likely the inverter.

Hello, Im having problems getting a pictur on my screen. The screen stays black but the power button is green so that means the TV is on but it wont show anything.. I also don't hear sound either im not...

hi in a dark room shine a flashlight on the screen see if you see an image, if you can then you may inverter/ power board problem, if you can't you may have mainboard or tcon board problem thanks

Monitor comes on, I can see everything perfect then goes black

"Most" newer monitors will let you know if the are no longer receiving a signal. Sounds like the backlight is burnt out. Try getting a bright (LED works best) flashlight and shining it at the screen at all angles to see if you can see any of what you were doing. If the backlight is on the fritz, either return it on warranty or buy a new one.
