My TV picture went black one day but i could still hear audio. I learned that there are redundant picture feeds on the circuit board. So a simple trick using scotch tape, and a exacto razor blade, places tape over the copper connectors, which is sliced away in sections until the picture returns. It leaves the burned out, or shorted connection covered/insulated by tape, allowing the redundant connection to supply video. Worked like a charm for three years now. I probably learned it from this channel 😆

Be carefull around powersupply, Make sure its disconnected from the wall before taking apart and be carefull what you touch as powersupplies often contain capacitors that remain charged a significat ammount of time after unpluging from the wall.

I offered to pick up any electronics in my local area and I got about 15 TVs, a dozen or so microwaves, several computers, and lots of other gadgets… all in about 1 month. My wife hated it but I got thousands of parts like transformers, flybacks, capacitors, massive diodes, etc. I made some light panels, donated fresnels lenses to the local high school for solar ovens, sold several that worked fine (people just wanted matching appliances), made a few tesla coils, etc.. Made a couple thousand bucks and still have a boatload of parts.

I like the way you think! Don't let materials go to waste! With a little effort most of what would be considered trash can be repurposed!!! Imagine! If people took items like this apart and distributed the components accordingly how much less waste there would be??? The only thing wrong with that TV was the cracked LCD so why not send the parts back to the company to be used on another TV???? If these companies had a department that took in all the useable parts and built more TV's they wouldn't have to produce as much which would decrease the amount of raw materials needed in production! Unfortunately humanity is lost and most people don't care and these massive companies wouldn't do the right thing because it would cut into their profits! 😕

Hopefully these two little tricks will help someone else. Just make sure the capacitor is the same voltage and micro farad rating

For the love of god, do NOT open up something like a TV if you don't know what you're doing. Most TVs have a power supply built into the TV itself and generally don't have a protective cage on the inside. Power supplies involve capacitors that retain their charge fordays, months or years unless somehow discharged. In other words, the TV being unplugged will NOT protect you if you touch something you shouldn't. Especially do not ever open up such a thing in your home if there are any children or pets that won't know better and can't be warned. Posting a video like this without clear warnings is reckless.

Also, if you connect it to the same network as your phone, you can play music on it by casting youtube to it, which will keep it from timing out. But if you get out of reach of your home wifi, (like a garage or shop) then casting wont work.

We had an old Sony bravia my uncle gave away due screen problem (half screen ghosting and color problems). My dad and I opened it up and found out problem was one of screen ribbon cables, bad contact. Sony had made such design flaw with casing that it caused ribbon get loose. We cut some plastic off so case wouldn't stress ribbon cable and installed small block which pushed ribbon contact to board against case. Tv lived after that without its back panel, so we could tinker with ribbon if fault came back. That fix was temporary but still prolonged tv's life quite a lot. That's probably (hopefully) a rare case since that fault was clearly caused by design flaw.

Always remember to lick the circuit boards after you power off the tv to make sure there is no leftover charge in the capacitors since you won't get shocked through you tongue due to the leidenfrost effect.

I had a tv do that. I put a vacuum to the impact area and it worked ok for a while. It lasted the week until I was able to get to the store on the weekend to replace it.

I've made a few bucks selling boards, turned a curved screen into a shop lamp, and I've also pulled the capacitors from a few boards to to swap with bad ones on other tvs since those and fuses seem to be the most common problems in my experiences.

If you take them apart, watch out for capacitors. They can hold a charge for months even when unplugged. And they can carry high charges.

You can buy a replacement panel, but its often cost prohibitive and a better buy to just get a new TV.

Another use for this is signage. You can buy or create a design to be displayed and it will be back lit by the lights. It's a semi-viable business to make window signs like this for small businesses.

I had a 1080p Plasma TV I got for $600, and the image quality was by far and away better than any 4K non-OLED TV I've ever seen. It's controller died and I was able to flip the plasma display panel on eBay for like $3k.

Many times you can see the image even if the lcd is cracked and you can hear the sound. That shows you it's still working. You can even say in the ebay listing that it is taken from a tv with a cracked screen.

Ahh, my laptop screen broke, I still use the laptop though. I took it carefully apart, and it was easily fixable, I bought the inside screen and new sheets, all in one, except the actual monitor frame, installed it, all for $70. Do they not make TV parts for sale? There are some really expensive TVs. I thought of getting a better picture on a crappy TV frame for cheaper but I haven't looked it up. That's just strange
