Sony Television: My SONY 40" LED TV has no picture but has sound?

Wed, 06 May 2026 00:54:32 -0700

Hello. Please help me with this.

My SONY LED TV has no picture but it has sound. There's no SONY logo during startup but there's an obvious very dim light. I have tried powercycle but no go. I've tried using flashlight to check for any picture on the screen but seems like I cannot see any. I did not open the back yet to check for the ribbons and pins.

What could possibly be the problem and the fix?

Thanks so much.

LG UltraFine 5K: Why is my monitor rapidly flickering (like on and off) like crazy?

Tue, 05 May 2026 09:28:49 -0700

Hi, hope someone can help.

I have LG Ultrafine 22MD4KA-B monitor that I am trying to use with my MacBook Pro.

MacBook Pro is Core i9" 2.4 16" 2019 5600M

https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbo...

At first the problem was that only in MacOS (various versions) monitor blnks like crazy. On the same machine i have BootCamp with Windows 11 and from there monitor works normaly. When i boot in MacOS it automaticly starts to blink and it then continue to blink even if i boot to Windows. Only way to stop that is to disconect monitor from power and wait couple of hours (usualy one night). Then it works normaly again but only in windows not the MacOS.

As i can recal i tried using LG application for this monitor in windows, and when i changed brightness it started with blinking. Again as i recall. At that time I did not used MacOS with this monitor so mabey the problem was already there, and then mabey it started with me and that LG app.

I tried couple of things like disabling auto brightnes, graphic switchnig, and so, but with no success. Also a lot of different USB-C and Thunderbolt cables (this model only have USB-C connection)

Also worth mentioning is that in Internet recovery and as i recall in safe mode it does not fliker (after one night without power).

As I mentioned in another post, it seamed that at some point monitor fixed it self (in windows and macos) but that did not lasted long.

I used monitor like that for a while, but now it started blinking in Windows also, and leting it without power is not working same as before. It continues to bilnk no mater what. Now i left it without power, and will leave it for a few day to see what will happen.

I asume that it is some hardware issue but not sure. I do not have multiple Macbooks to try them. If someome have some suggestion or hint it would be much appreciated. I love this exact model because of screen size and resolution...

Television: LG 43UM7100PLB, horizontal Lines after FIXING with "tape method"

Tue, 05 May 2026 06:24:54 -0700

Hi, my tv suddenly stopped working after roughly 4 years, but backlight was still working. After watching countless youtube videos i taped approximatly first 14 pins on my LEFT connector and it works now but! Now i have horizontal lines on my TV.

. I've figured (i hope correctly) that pins on my connector are:

CLK1
CLK2
CLK3
CLK4
CLK5
CLK6
IDK
IDK
IDK
IDK
GND
ODD
EVEN
IDK

Now first i will post top left corner.

and now top right corner.

Left side is the bad. And right side was okay.

My question is: Will it be posiible to fix those lines or the PANEL is already somehow broken and this is best possible fix i could get. Thanks everyone for replying. Love ya <3

Samsung Television: Samsung UN85Au800 dark screen

Tue, 05 May 2026 03:42:35 -0700

I bought a UN85au8000 a little over a year ago. About 2 months after I got it, the left side of the screen went dark as though the backlighting turned off. It wasn't THAT much of an inconvenience so I just let it go. But yesterday the right side went dark too.

But then later in the day the left side lit back up. While the right side stayed dark, then the middle also went dark. Left side still good. The right side kind of flickers once in a while. I'm assuming that the backlighting itself doesn't need to be replaced since the left side came back on and the right side still flickers.

I know this is a relatively common issue, but I've never seen anyone say they've had the exact same thing happen as I have. I.e one side being off, then coming back on again eventually while the other 2/3 of the screen go "off" all in one day. Any suggestions?

VU Television: Red and yellow horizontal lines on the display screen

Tue, 05 May 2026 02:59:54 -0700

There are red and yellow horizontal lines on the tv. Initially the the screen was flickering and after the tapping method of gate lines, the screen stabilized but the horizontal lines have come up right in the center.

Either we are not considering the right number of gate lines or there is something else we can't detect. Does anyone have any idea on how we can solve it?

LG Television: Replacement LED Strips Too Short?

Sun, 03 May 2026 08:16:42 -0700

First time attempt at replacing LED backlights for me. Picked up an old LG 55" tv (LG 55UM7300PUA) that has an overly blue picture. Ordered some replacement LEDs off Ebay, and got them in this week. Part number seems to match (SSC_Y19_TRIDENT_55UM73), but the eight-LED strips are only about 22" long (as in, about half the length of the tv screen).

I haven't broken open the TV yet, but before I do so, was wondering if having LED strips so short compared to the length of the TV is normal.

Also, I noticed that the markings on each strip are identical (i.e., there's no "A" or "B" strip designation). Are these strips typically interchangeable among themselves?
