SOURCE: The picture on my JVC TV is too dark

On the inside of the TV, on the flyback transformer there should be two controls. Turn the one that says "screen" very slowly clockwise while looking at the pix. The pix should get brighter as you turn it up- if you go to far you will see lines in the pix or the TV may shutdown.

SOURCE: adjusting darkness

Hi Angel,
Are you really sure , your set has video? How dark is it ? As if really nothing visible? Am, sure you can hear sounds. You can adjust the brightness + button to increase the brightness. But if nothing happens , you have problem with your TV set. The problem might be in the Video section. Please let an expert technician to check it. Please don't do it by yourself, it's risky.
Please send feedback whatever comes up. So we can help you further in the future.

Thanks,
Eriez

SOURCE: dim picture

If decide to do yourself, ya only have to do the green and blue ones, the red light spectrum won't allow fungal growth. Pull whole CRT assembly out to prevent spilled/leaking glycol from onto lower main boards

SOURCE: vs 4561 weak picture

Good Day, Techwanab;

Look for this to be your problem: CHECK FOR OPEN L2C50 PART #325C146030 ON THE SIGNAL PCB, OR BAD CONNECTIONS AND LEAKY CAPS IN THAT AREA.

Hope this was helpful and not too late.

Good Luck, big IRISH.

SOURCE: LG Projection TV has dark picture

To do this, press the ENTER button on the TV and the MUTE button on the remote at the same time. After 5 seconds the screen should come up and it will read "Lamp use time...Total lamp use time ....lamp reset" Press the center button on your remote (the circle button right in the middle of the four directional buttons) and you will be reset to -0- again. Your orange light should now be off.

Dark tcl screen 65s421tv2baa

Hi,

pleas adjust the screen brightness from the remote or the tv. If this does not work, we can change power outlets to make sure that the power source isn't the issue. Then we can check that all channels have a similar dimness. And if still having the issue, please perform a factory reset on the tv.

Thank you.

Dark picture w/ good sound. i also tried to adjust the screen and focus at the back of flyback but its too dark

If you cannot adjust the picture brightness with the TV set control(s) then it is likely the tube is failing and you will need a new TV.

SAMSUNG LCD TV very bright screen

hi Elle924.
this is all i could find out.
What kind of panel do you have - a LED or CCFL one? If it's CCFL then check the inverter board. The main board might be fine (changing the brightness settings changes the signal to the inverter board) but if the inverter board is faulty somewhere then the problem you described may be caused by it
or try this forum.
