Hopefully I can help with your issue as it seems your getting some answers that don't make much sense...this sounds like a PMW issue, this stands for pulse width modulation and its what controls the brightness on the screen...find that pin on the main board and measure it, you should see somewhere between 3.5 and 4.5 volts there, also it should increase and decrease when the backlight setting is increased. Its actually a signal that comes from the main board and is used to adjust the voltage of the backlights..if you find a low voltage here after the set has been on and the picture dims its a bad main board, there is a slim chance its in the power supply but I'd say its 10 to 1 being the main...Good luck, if you need more assistance please ask.

    Thanks for your response. But I already checked that. I still have back lights. It just goes very very dim. Can still see a picture but it's like I have the brightness all the way turned down.

    By the way, I've done all of the troubleshooting possible. Eco sensor is off. Have done soft and hard factory resets. Checked the boards inside the TV cannot see anything wrong with any of them with the ***** eye. Can you maybe tell me which one of those boards would have something to do with the picture dimming? Or maybe somewhere that I can buy all three of the boards that are in that TV and replace them myself. I am able to do that in the way of replacement.

    you can change only the picture board that's all

    Can you tell me which one the picture board would be? Is it also called the t-con board? I do know of course one of the three is the power source board that's easy to tell obviously.

  • Umar Faruk Mar 30, 2018

    exactly one with the source

  • Larry Apr 04, 2018

    Never heard of a "picture board" more like there isn't one...

SOURCE: Picture flickers off and on

I would try adjusting the screen control on the flyback. The flyback can be easly located, find the red wire attached to the top of the picture tube & follow it down to the flyback. on the flyback you should find two controls, one screen & one focus. you sould be able to read the words above each control, only adjust the screen one. slightly increase the control till the picture stays on, if you turn it too much you will get small white lines going across the screen. Now if what i have told you fixes the set, then it is only a tempoary repair. could last days or mothes, maybe years. if it starts to happen again later the set will have to be replaced. this is a sign of the picture tube starting to get a weak. ALSO DO NOT PLAY WITH THE RED WIRE IT CARRES VERY HIGH VOLTAGES EVEN WHAN UNPLUGGED FOR DAYS.

Samsung Smart TV has a very dim picture. Is a LED driver board the proper fix?

Depends on the model. Have you checked the backlight, (LED in this set perhaps).

Samsung takes a while to turn on, even factory reset didn't help.

Assuming is always a big problem with diagnosing television issues. Voltage (power board) doesn't make televisions turn on slow. Voltage is there or it isn't. Voltage (surprisingly) in televisions doesn't make the display dim, other components do.

Have a read of this. It is the best advice.

Our samsung smart tv screen goes dark at nightfall. We have to open the blinds to let light in to get the screen normal again. Is there some kind of setting I can set to stop this from happening?

It is there. Designed to have a brighter picture during the day and dim it in the evening. Have different names for the feature.

Check your manual out for it.

How do I fix my Samsung 40 LED TV that has sound but no picture?

Here is what to check when your TV is turned on, power light is ON, but no picture is seen or sound is heard:

1 - Be sure the component you are using (Xbox, Cable, SAT, ROKU) is turned ON.
2 - Check to be sure all cable and cords are securely connected to the TV inputs and component outputs.
3 - Make sure you are on the correct input as some TV's will show a black screen if there is nothing connected to that input.
4 - Unplug the input you are trying to use from the TV (such as an HDMI Cable) and plug it back in.
5 - Check for signs of damage on all cords and cables from the TV to all components.
6 - Make sure the TV is not in ENERGY SAVE MODE, press the button on the remote control to go back to normal mode.
7 - Unplug the TV for 10 minutes to see if there was a temporary one time issue with the TV.
8 - Disconnect the TV from power for 2 minutes, then when plugging it back in PRESS AND HOLD THE POWER BUTTON ON THE TV FOR 10 to 20 SECONDS to try and force the TV to reset.
9 - If after checking all these different issues, you may have a Faulty Power Supply Board, A Bad Capacitor on the Power Supply Board, Loose Wire Harness, or Loose Ribbon Connector in the TV itself.
10 - Most likely when a TV has the power light ON but NO PICTURE and NO SOUND, it is the Power Supply Board that has failed.

BTW, here are solutions for you to play iTunes movies on Samsung smart TV

Smart T.V Sumsung Got Stuck

It sounds that your TVs' timer function is set to 'ON' for 15 minutes time. Check it, and make it 'Off'. Refer its user manual for details.

Ln55c650 keeps flashing bright to dim very fast after about 30 minutes of being on if i shut it off for a few minutes it goes away til about 30 minutes the picture never goes away just gets bright and dim...

I had the same issue occur on my ln55c650 (screen flickering, not the actual image but the front lights flashed which was too distracting) and they had to replace the power supply pc-board. Seems some issue with power module in the TV rather than the side panels. Luckily for me, TV was still in warranty.
