Tv has Sound but no Picture after 1 minute

TV Model: Samsung LE32B651T3W

Problem Description:

Hi everyone,

I have a Samsung LE32B651T3W TV. It turns on normally, shows both image and sound for about one minute, and then the screen goes black, but the sound continues.

When I shine a flashlight on the screen, I can still faintly see the picture, which suggests the backlight is not working properly.

Can anyone help me confirm if this is a backlight or power board issue, or something else? And is it worth fixing this model?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

@valentinna97464 this definitely sounds like a backlight issue. It is very difficult to confirm since we would need to know how many amps your backlight pull from the power supply etc. Based on the flashlight test and based on what you are reporting, I give this one a 99% chance of being a failed backlight strip.

And is it worth fixing this model? Backlight strips for this TV might run you anywhere up to $40USD. Your labor cost will be 0 since you are doing it by yourself :-) Saving the TV from the landfill is priceless. So, can you purchase a replacement for $40USD? Most likely not. That means its definitely worthwhile to fix it
