Absolutely correct, I saw your recycling rant video, RU-vid's algorithm is awesome. Have always loved working on TVs, remember my dad taking tubes to test at the drug store or Radio Shack. I mostly did solid state in the 80s and 90s replacing horizontal output transistors and flyback transformers. LEDs are so much easier, love your channel and your helping others.
Brilliant Allen I have just done one of them, lovely sets and picture dam awful backlights lol 😊 Lovely security guard so beautiful I have 2 staffs one is an Irish red and one is a staff and French bull
Did a 65inch tv. Back lights. Worked perfectly. With out the back on testing. Fitting the back on the last screw I cracked the screen gutted luckily the online shop refunded the leds.
Thanks for your RU-vid videos I often watch them I have got a little problem. When I turn my more than 15 year old 52" Samsung TV on in the morning, I first see a double image where the “image copy” is slightly enlarged and about 2 inches lower. This phenomenon lasts about 10 min. At the same time, I see a straight green line about half an inch in from the left edge. This line can remain up to half an hour. After this, the picture is perfect and lasts all day - even if I turn it off for several hours during the day. Do you have any experience with these phenomena and can you advise me what the error could be Sincerely Thomas Hedén
I had to go through my drawer of odds and ends to find an electrolytic capacitor to replace one bad cap in my 2009 Samsung TV's power supply section. This has been my TV since 2009, and still is my TV here in 2023. Shortly afterwards, my Lenovo ThinkCentre backup computer suddenly was stuck in a boot loop mode. Logic told me that it was most likely a PSU problem. I spotted a bad electrolytic capacitor next to one of the two IC's. I replaced it, and the computer was back to normal operation. Other caps were seen bulging at the top as well, and so I had to spend a whopping $9.95 to purchase replacement capacitors, but some were to simply hold on to for any future bad cap encounters.
I'm a bit puzzled, most of the lamps were working but in the initial test the logo was not lit up. Then after replacing about 3 lamps the whole TV works.
@@allenfleckney5969 Would you suspect the LEDs if the backlight comes on for half a second after power-on and then goes out? I do get a picture but no backlight. It's a slightly older LG TV with LED backlight (early 2010s I think). The set has been properly abused, run for ten to eleven hours a day, 365 days a year for its entire life so I'm not inclined to put any money into it but fixing it with spare parts from identical sets would be neat (I already sank a few Euros into new electrolytic caps for the power supply).
Oh yes, I'd really like to know how you tested those LED strips! I've got an older but similar LG TV where the backlight pops on for maybe half a second and then goes out. Initially I suspected the driver circuit on the power supply board but that seems to be fine. That back panel of the screen can have awfully sharp edges BTW.
I have two samsung tv of the same model. One of it the display panel is spoilt but the speakers are still working. Can I add the speakers into the other TV and in total have four speakers?
I resold my big 47 inch LG it had no stand the 40 inch sonyv4000 is a better size and has a stand and great PQ. it looks like the person who bought the 47-inch LG from me is reselling it to.
