T-Con board lights up at LED indicators

I ordered a new one regardless but this is the last check. Not too sure if replacing the LEDs is worth the risk. Any other checks I’m missing?

Is this a good question?

Samsung officially does not use blink codes. Unplug the wire going from the power board to the main board. Let us know what happens when you turn the TV on. When you say you replaced, are you referring to the main board when you say “motherboards “ If so, you need to check the t-con board as well. That is the small board that has the one ribbon cable coming from the main board and has two going to the LCD panel.

I replaced the motherboard as well as the power supply board. After I disconnected the wire going from the power board to the main board the TV doesn’t power on nor does the standby light.

Does your backlight turn on when you disconnect the wire? check the backlight by looking at the back of the panel in the TV through some of the screwholes.

This is what happens with mine when I disconnect, what's the solution?

So was it the TCon board that fixed it?

I have worked in electronics for 35 years if the boards have not fixed it then it is a led. It is kinda easy to find what led is out if it uses the small led’s and not the long tube’s there like a very small florecent lights. But you will have to dissemble the whole tv. When doing this there are about 4-5 deferent screens after you take the bezel lose do not forget how they go back in or you have a miss on your hands so mark them some how. But you use a 9 volt battery with a couple jumper wires and a led is a diode so it has a plus end and a ground end you touch your jumper wires to each end of just one led at a time if it lights it good don’t look right at the led cuzz there very bright and will blinde you for a while or if you have a meter put it on the diode check as you check the leds the meter has enough power to light up the led there are a lot of them so i takes awhile. When you find the bad one if you can solder just make a small jumper wire ans solder that in place of the led and your good to go. GOOD LUCK

I was trying to follow this thread, but I’m just going to ask you since you repair TVs and you have the most recent comment. I just need to know honestly what I’m looking at having to do.

I have a samsung tv as well that gives me 6 blinks. I have no picture or sound but I can see the screen with a flashlight. Can this be fixed or am I out of a tv?

by

May be replace the black light .Check the Light "Black Light Checker"

by

if it is LCD then its the back light inverter. If it is a LED tv then its a bad led or multiple bad LED's. And to repair the LED's you have to take the whole tv apart. It's the first thing they put on a tv. There is multiple ways to check for bad led's but the best and easiest way is the Led tester. IDK if ifixit sells them but if they don't ebay or shopjimmy.com.

@ballbeerfish "LCD then its the back light inverter. " LCD TV's have either a CCFL backlight (requires a separate backlight inverter, or LED backlight which most commonly uses the power board for the inverter circuits. Since the technology is better, all LCD TVs now use LED lights There are no LED TV's and OLED is an exception but different technology altogether
