@LanesEngineering3 жыл бұрын
Fortunately, no issues at all at first. But now, the TV do have some issues. I believe that the mainboard was toasted because the T-Con was new, not refurbished. The issue was, when my family and I watched the TV, the first hour was OK. But after that, the TV panel shows some double image with white flush and ghosting effect. Now, I have another TV, surely not Sony 😁.

I believe that the T-Con will not spoil the mainboard because it is new. Also, I do believe that, all the components inside the TV, like the mainboard, T-Con, backlight, and the TV power adapter, last around 3.5 to 4 years only. Why? Because some of the manufacturers use really cheap electronic components like the capacitors. Even the TV panel itself, I thought Sony made it, but it was Winstron brand. Recently, I've just ordered a new LVDS ribbon cable for the TV and I will try to replace the old one with the new one 😃.

Hello 😀. First, you can try reset the TV by unplugging the power cable and then press the start button for 30 minutes to remove all the stored electricity inside the TV. If that did not work, (*Note: if you are not confident to disassemble your TV, do not do it) you can try reseat the LVDS cable and T-Con ribbon cables by removing it and then connect it back together. Also, if that did not work, consult your TV technician. You do not want to go any further when trying to find a fault on your TV as this is more likely for you to do more damage to your own TV like damaging the LCD panel 😀.
