Keep up the Good work and I am sure Karma will get You back the compounding return for Your efforts!!

[@paparoysworkshop]

I've just come across this exact same problem on a Samsung 55" TV. I went through the typical tests including taping off some of the lines on those ribbon cables and the TV would do as you have shown in this video. But, further testing (many hours of testing) showed that on the circuit board at the bottom of the screen (the one attached to the screen that runs the width of the screen) has some diode packs. One of these diode packs was getting hot. I removed the device from the circuit board and now the TV works fine. I found two shorts within the diode pack itself. Pins 1 and 10 were shorted and pins 5 and 6 were shorted. Without the schematics (and since I didn't want to try to reverse engineer it) I can only make assumptions on what these diode packs did. Since the TV works without it, I assume it's some sort of back EMF prevention as it also appears to be installed with reverse polarity. But I could be wrong about this. The part number on it is 4268H but I could not find any datasheet for it. It measures about 0.5mm x 2mm. So far, the TV is working without any apparent problems but only time will tell if missing this part will impact something else in the future. At the moment, I'm keeping an eye out for a similar TV for salvage to replace the part with. I hope to put out a video regarding this repair soon. But it's on a very long To-Do list.

I don't see a diode pack at the bottom of the screen? Much less where it plugs in.

really? It did not work for me, by applying tape on one ribbon at a time on my Samsung UN55NU7100 .

You applied the tape on both ribbon cable, and it did turn on with picture, is that it?

[@BoulderHouse]

I have same tv and same problem. What I did if your facing the back of the tv was remove the ribbon from the bottom left side of the panel that runs down from the bottom of the main board. Waited for the tv to light up and sound to come on. The tv stayed on then I plugged the bottom left ribbon back in WHALLA!!! FULL PICTURE FULL COLOR NO LINES. Downside- as soon as you turn tv back off and on again you have to remove cable and put back again. I'm going tontry your process next but trying to avoid loosing color or reducing the lifespan of the other processors if their working double time due to the tape method. (Do you think that is true? Reduced life span) My other idea is to get an extra 96pin ribbon and a double sided femal adaptor and hang both ribbons out of the bottom of the tv so I can easily access and remove the ribbon connection and plug back in after it boots back on.

I have a 65nu6900 that has a grey screen. I remove one of the end lcd driver boards out of the circuit and i get proper 16.7V on the capacitors but still grey screens with no video. The tv sounds correct for the setup screen but cant coax an image out by covering pins on the ribbon. The lvds cables are very narrow, half the size as the ones in your video. I suspect one of the COF are bad as i see some subtle lines at one end of the panel. Not sure if i can coax an image outnof this one. Any thoughts before i start cutting traces?

[@jcn5754]

DJ - interesting video. We have a 75 QLED Samsung, I replaced the power supply about 6 months ago and today it started with the reboot power on, some lines on the screen with sound, then repeat. So I'm thinking the controller board has gone south but I haven't ordered it yet. My question for you is how did you arrive at the pins to start the tape covering. After watching this video you had some of the screen working but then screen lines came on. How did you dial in the pins and do you think it is a temporary fix that you will need to replace the controller board longer term? Thanks, - Jeff

[@TheChuyDewy]

He arrived at the pins once he saw the leds were coming on without the screen connected internally. He says most of the time it's the panel going bad so the main board won't do much most of the time. This is a temp fix some say 6 month some say couple. You pick off pins with tape so if I had 6 taped in the middle I was cut the tape one off and see if it's better. Maybe lines go away if none of thay happens it's the panel most expensive part. These tvs have the part that displays the image integrated into the main board

When I do the opposite, unplug the top ribbon and plug the bottom ribbon, the tv keeps turning on and off without image. I assume that this bottom ribbon is the one with the issue , right? I tried using tape to cover the pins, and the one that worked was PIN 1 (the one in the bottom). Then, the TV starts and there is sound, but still no image.

Walter Ferreira let's do this and if this does not work then your panel may be passed repair first disconnect the top ribbon (the long one) from the mainboard starting from left to right cover pins 14 through 25 if that does not work then go to the bottom ribbon ( the shorter one ) disconnect from the mainboard and starting from right to left cover pins 14 through 25 (the bottom ribbon is the mirror reverse of the top) let me know if it worked for you

soooo if you disconnect both ribbon cables to the panel and nothing changes in behavior, i.e. it keeps flashing on and off, does that imply your mainboard is bad?

Thanks, It didn't work for me on that belt but after I checked your video it gave me ideas and I tried with the other belts and it worked lol it was actually the belt for the right side of the tv I covered 2 pins and found the problem, I tried to cover more at first but I was losing too many pixels and showing lines so I tried pin by pin lol it wasn't easy but I found the 2 causing the problem and now unless you get super super close to the tv you can see that some pixels aren't working but from 2 feet away you can't notice anything lol

TOTAL LIFE SAVER!! YOU DA' MAN. IT TOOK PACIENCE AND TRIAL AND ERROR BUT WAS A SUCCESS. THOSE OTHER PEOPLE'S TUTORIAL VIDEOS DID NOT WORK, AND I WENT THROUGH A LOT. YOUR A GENIUS. THANK YOU

Omg you are a life saver. Our t.v went black and we followed your video step by step. It has a little grey or pink still on the end of it but we rather have that than a black screen. We are able to still watch our t.v. Until we get a new one. It was all about playing around with the tape size covering those little slits. You saved us 300 dollars to get it fixed, plus we never fixed a t.v. before. Thank you again

Tv works good as new. Wish I could give you 2 thumbs up brother! Thank you

This is by far the best solution. I used scotch tape. I will try to do the same to the other ribbon to equalize the screen. Thank you so very much. I will post when it is finished.

I fixed the tv then I accidentally dropped it as I was putting it on the wall …. The corner of tv was damaged 😂
