Why does my TCL tv stay dimmed and very dark screen? I've reset it and everything?

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.

To some model sets; especially LED back-lighted types; the back-light inverter circuit will be part of the main power supply board [SMPS]. In such cases, the power supply board might need replacement. To some models sets, the back-light inverter and SMPS section circuit will be integrated at its main board itself. If so; the main board should be replaced. To some models of sets, all these section circuit will be integrated at its main board. If this is the case, you have to replace the main board.

Had a power surge come i to the house and pop a 40 inch rca lcd flatscreen. i replaced the ccp-508 power board twice from ebay. tv worked when i first plugged them in but then stopped after about 30...

You may have a board such as the main board down the line that is loading the power board and burning it out. Try it with no other boards attached to it. If it still goes out see if you have problems with the input power cable. It could be this but sounds like a board down line is loading your power board and burning it out.

Help new power supply will not power up.

if you had a surge, it could have damaged more than just the power supply. When you plug in the unit, does the power indicator light up??? your main board could also have damage. The main board sends a signal to wake up the power supply thus turning on the TV. If you have to replace the main board as well, it probably won' t be economical to repair the set.

Power supply went out (at least I think thats what it is) on my Polaroid FLM-4034B 4-" HD TV, if I buy the new power supply, is it easy to install myself? Will I have to do any soldering? I am not any...

Hi Scott,
Replacing the power supply board is not quite technical, no soldering required. But before an attempt to do so, let stand the unit for 1 hour to drain the main filter electrolytic capacitor. Power supply board is where the power cord directly connected. Pull-out all the cables connected from the existing power supply board and then put in the new board, re-insert the connectors and ensure that it is properly seat-in.
Click this link for the replacement or obtain it from your local Polaroid Service Centers.
Hope I helped you.
Thanks for using Fixya.
