Introduction |
One half (right) side of my LG55UH6150 was dark, black actually. This unit was given to myme by my work. It was used aas a computer monitor on the shop floor. From what I heard it was installed in late 2016 early 2017 and never turned off. If my math is right that’s about 35,040 hours. The LED’s have an advertised life of 30,000 hours so that seems right. The first thing I needed to do was 1) verify that it was indeed the LED strip that was bad and 2) see if replacements were available. I removed the back of the set which was pretty straight forward. I found the plug that powered the LED strips and checked for voltagevoltages to both. YES I have voltage going to the strips but only one side was lit. Next thing was to determine what type of LED strips were used. A quick google search, actually a 3 hour google search (darn youtube) I was able to determine that the two strips used were 6916L2318A and 6916L2319A both have 60 LED’s per strip. |
