In this video I tell you what's wrong and the fix for your TCL 55 inch TV that has sound but no picture. The problem is the back lights have gone out probably just one that is causing it to short and kind of like your old Christmas lights effects them all. You'll have to replace the led strips inside the TV. You'll have to open up the TV and take the display out to access behind the display. It's not that hard of a fix but you will need to be super careful and not crack the display while doing this fix. Thank you for your time.

Not the fix video I was looking for, but was pretty informative 👍

[@deeone2b1]

Thanks soo much! Unplugging for 30 seconds worked for meee!

[@scottgm321]

Thanks for the video. I laid my TCL 50 inch on the bed last night and tried the trick of unplugging and holding the power button for 60 seconds and then plugging it back in, to no avail. But I could see the Netflix and KZbin boxes. I thought they were burn in at first but it's like yours. I'll order the parts. Thanks again.

[@GeraldCrochet]

What parts? He never linked to anything!? And i think i have that ecxact tv he has here!

[@willw2695]

Does anyone have the link to the LED replacement ?

[@corystanley9197]

Thank you for a really simple diagnosis. There are several issues that occur with TCLs (Main board, power board, Tcon board) but it seems a bad backlight is the #1 culprit. Mine had sound, the TCL logo would flash for a split second, and then black screen. You could hear the menu responding but couldn't see to navigate. If the flashlight test doesn't work, you probably have a board issue. Now, wish me luck replacing those LEDs!

[@HKChea]

So what do you do then if you shine a flashlight and you can’t anything like what your showing in this video

[@kelheldersheen3096]

Best video so far thank you

[@cillasbug4183]

How do I find correct replacement backlights? I have a tcl 55S403TCAA I have the exact issue as the one in the video but I’ve seen places say there are different models of lights so it might not work?

[@wendyjimenez3422]

Can I have the link for the led lights pleasr

[@carlosk8103]

It actually is pretty hard just to take apart and put the screen back together..... Well... it's not actually hard per say just a ton of chances to mess up and damage the screen it's large thin and fragile ... If you mess up even a bit...screen will be damaged.. Actually changing the LED isn't hard... tho Also to save money I'd just change one LED... usually it's only one... You get singles LEDS like 100 for like $10 and they are universal... and the stripes are like 30-50$ EACH and TV specific....

[@ERICMARIONLLEDO]

It worked! Thank you!

[@mes98yng22]

You should give links to both the other video to fix this problem and a link to the LED strips you talked about. This is KZbin 101

[@charlitamcrae8897]

I wish I was able to say this worked for me like everybody else😢. Unfortunately I cannot. First off my TV is a Toshiba. Second my problem is that when I select my TV show and press play then the screen goes to black and I could hear everything I could even see the words on the screen say ad 1 of 1 or skip ad but it will not show me the actual show, but I could hear it. So I tried step 1 & 2. Both ways made the TV reboot but neither way worked😢. This happened to me a week ago and I found that if I switched to an iPhone block instead of a generic block to plug it into it worked this time I tried it and tried putting a different cord on there and none of these ways worked this time.😢😢😢

[@danpatrick2175]

My son had this same problem with his TCL (Model 55S431). Assumed that it was led backlight based on all of the YT videos. TV was under warranty so he contacted TCL. Took a while to get through troubleshooting and warranty claim process but TCL sent a repair guy to our house. He changed a board under the small sub panel on the back of the TV. Literally took less than 10 minutes from the time he walked in the door until the TV was fixed. Works fine now.

[@Crod716]

@@danpatrick2175 I have two questions for you 1. My TCL TV is no longer under warranty, it expired a few months ago, would TCO still be willing to send a repair guy to my house to fix my TV even though it is no longer under warranty if I pay them to come fix it 2. If you don't mind me asking, how much did the repair guy charged you if anything

[@danpatrick2175]

@@Crod716 Sorry for the delay - just saw your message. The repair guy (sent by TCL) did not charge for the (warranty) service. I gave him a tip because he he was quick and did a good job. He drove about 90 miles to get to my house and said he had several repairs planned for the day (various brands). I can't say for certain if TCL would send someone. The guy that came to my house was not a TCL employee - was contracted by TCL for the repair. You might still try contact TCL support to see what they say. Some companies will cover (or partially cover) repairs under "policy" even if warranty is expired. They might also be able to help you trouble-shoot shoot the problem and send you a part. In my case, the board was easily accessed - literally just a few minutes to replace via a small sub-panel on the back of the TV. Otherwise, check to see if you can find a local repair company. I know there is at least one company near me that does in-home repairs of TV's. I think that this is becoming more common as TV's get larger and are harder to transport. Hope that helps.
