Yes it could be a t-con board but could also be a 12V power supply output failure. The Video processing board, and LCD panel uses 12V

  • Jo Asleson Oct 19, 2012

    Wanted to add one note. When I do the flash light test, I am able to see an image on the TV. That is why I replaced both the master and slave invertor boards, but that did not fix the problem. I then changed the mainboard, which did not fix it either. Isn't the video processor board the same thing as the main board. And the AV board is the Video signal board? I just need some clarification. I did test the voltage going to the invertor boards, and it is 24v as the board states it should be.Help anyone?

SOURCE: sound no picture, which component is tcon board? where all audio/video/cable/hdmi plug in to?

I have LNS4692D. Returned from vacation, turned tv on - no picture. Tried turning tv off for 4 hours- nothing. Symptoms are: tv is on - no picture , just sound; menu doesn't show, volume bar doesn't show;E.Saving is working - the backlight is changing from lighter to darker.
Found this website and ordered T-con, otherwise known as the LCD panel driver board, p/n# Bn8101286a ( thanks premtech) from partstore.com for $124. Part number BN81-01286A A/S T-CON Board.
Installation:
1.Remove plastic cover. There is an arrow for each screw that needs to be removed. Make sure to unscrew pins next to VGA port. I've spent some time trying to figure out what else is holding the plastic panel until I found this pins.
2. Remove big metal shield in the middle of tv that is covering main components. This shield is being held by small black screws all around it.
At this point you will see cover of T-CON. Here is the picture
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=118863&d=1220531321 (thanks ldac9). Do not attempt to remove that cover yet. Proceed with a next step

3.Remove metal panel that holds main components. Locate big chrome screws that have arrows pointing to them and unscrew them. Remove 2 more screws on the bottom of the panel that holds it together with a box for cables. At this point the main panel will be lose
4. Carefully start lifting the panel. You will see that there are connectors going from components on the panel to components on the lower panel and T-CON. Carefully unplug these components and raise the main panel.
5. Remove 4 screws that holds T-CON cover. Pull the cover so that T-CON is completely exposed. The cover is connected by thin alluminum , don't hesitate to pull it , but don't rip it out.
6. Once T-CON is exposed you will see 2 red ribbons. I've spent some time to figure out how unplug those from old T-CON board. Here is the suggestion. Don't try to pull it out. All you need to do is to lift small plastic lever that is part of a connector. Then ribbon can be slided out. If not sure what to do, see how this is done on the new T-CON. It has a principle of buckle on airplain safety belts.
7. Remove old T-CON and install new you.
8. Follow reverse order.

I've never fixed TV before , but this was totally successful project.

Good day.

If you already replaced a new inverter board and T-con board and the problem is still there.Try to play the video on the DVD,if the video is OK check the cable connection and try to run auto scan.
If the problem is still there check the input supply of the system board or main board it should have 5vdc and 12vdc,if it is OK replace the system board.

Review this manual page 4-1 abnormal display http://www.scribd.com/doc/36875894/Olevia-232-S12-SM

I hope this solution will be helpful.Thank you for using FixYa.

Since you have replaced the boards and the problem still persists,then maybe bad lamps could be the culprit.but i think its time for you to get a new TV set as the cost of repairing may have surpassed the cost of a new TV set.

Sharp has 2 slow flash and 5 rapid flash what can be the issue?

I have no idea why you would change the power board 3 times, this is the one board that can be tested with a simple multi meter, voltages are marked on the board, ifor future reference you know the 5 volt standby is working, next thing to test is the PS_ON pin coming from the main board, there should be about 3 volts there when the set is turned on, if no voltage replace the main board, if normal power-on voltage test the other rails, if all good the power board is working. Also a tcon board will never give the issues you have, a bad tcon will give distorted picture or blue screen without a picture. Now for what's wrong, according to service lit the blink code you have is bad inverter-backlight issue, since this set is LED it doesn't have an inverter so it's a LED backlight issue. Replacing the backlight strips should correct your issue, unfortunately on a set this size and with it being edge lit replacing the strips isn't a real easy job, this set has a diffusion panel behind the panel (screen) and it has to be replaced correctly or the picture won't look right, also with this size panel extreme care must be taken when handling the panel, suction cups work the best for removing and replacing it. Good luck!

My skyworth 32 has no picture but have sounds. what seems to be the rootcause?"

Press the TV menu button. If no menu appears the problem could be a bad tcon display board or backlight inverter board. Turn off the room light and check TV for backlight glow. If it has a glow then the problem can be a loose tcon connection or bad tcon board. Check connections.
Or it could be,
Possible TV Back-Light Inverter Board Issue:
To see if the back-light has gone out, turn the TV on. Turn the lights off and make the room dark. Shine a flashlight onto the screen at different angles. If you can see some of the picture then the back-light has gone out. (It should glow a slight grey if it’s working) To fix this you need a TV backlight inverter board. You can buy one online for a relatively low price. Usually the board will have a few bad capacitors on it. You could attempt to repair it yourself if you can identify which capacitor has gone bad. A capacitor kit for a TV board is ultra cheap. You are best off buying the backlight inverter board and installing it yourself. A back-light inverter board should be from $10 to $25 dollars depending on your TV model

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.

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.

My sony bravia kdl46vl130 goes into standby flashes red 5 times no picture no sound

Information from Sony:
TCON Error 5X
Communications have been lost between the video processor on the FB3 board and the TCON (TFT Control) board which is part of the LCD panel. This can be caused by a defective FB3 board, a defective LVDS cable, or a TCON failure.
