    THIS WORKED FOR ME ALSO. Like @johndate1776 commented above, my TCL (model 55R615) has two ribbons at the bottom of the screen near the IR sensor. Each ribbon has 80 pins. My flashing was on the left half of my screen, so I taped off pins 12 and 13 on that ribbon with simple black electrical tape. Using a reading magnifier, after about 10 cutting attempts, I got sliver of tape just the right size to cover 2 pins. I reassembled, and the flickering is gone.
    This video should win an award for the BEST fix-it video on UA-cam!! It is 1) very technical but easy 2) it's free 3) it SAVES the TV from going into the trash, and 4) IT WORKS! Great job. Thank you!

    Omg. I couldn't believe it at first but this worked for my TCL55PUS too... Thank you so much sir for sharing your knowledge with us. My issue was with the left side so I had to do it with the other ribbon like what others said.
    It was really hard for me to carry this whole TV by myself as a petite girl and I almost cried trying to unmount then remount it back on the wall cause it was so heavy and it was so hard to position it in place without seeing the wall. Not to mention the difficulty of actually unscrewing everything and doing the fix. By the time I got to the taping part I was sooo exhausted and hopeless I just did what I could and prayed to God it would work and thank God it did. Honestly it may sound pathetic but this is one of the hardest things I've done in my life. But I managed to do it thanks to this awesome awesome video and even more awesome uploader. Omg I could cry. 😭😭😭Thank you so much dear Mr uploader. You saved me!!! I hope you get a million more subs and billions more views. ❤️❤️❤️ May you be blessed with everything you need all the days of your life. I am truly grateful sir 🙏🙏🙏

I used masking tape and the pins where the 69th and 68th(from right to left), if you count the pins from left to right those will be the 12th and the 13th. No flickering after this!!

    I just did this fix 20 minutes ago. I fixed a Canadian 55R617 (55 inch series 5 I bought in 2020). The ribbon in question was on the T Con board which is located at the bottom middle of the unit when you get the back off. Same idea, count in from the left on the cable until you hit 12/13 and lay down the tape. Took a few tries to get the position right, but it works!

    Thank you for sharing the fix. Was the greatest tip to fix the TV flickering issue. I had the same flickering on the right side in Jun-2024 for my HCL Roku TV. Based on the comments, this looks like a wide spread issue for TCL . Fixed with tape like a charm. Used phone camera to put the tap on 12 and 13 pins. Difficult part was removing so many screws on the back of the TV and putting them back.
    All my friends think now I am an TV expert. Thanks again. Saved me a lot of trouble and money. Love from Canada.

    Wow, thank you so much. Quite possibly the best 4 minute video on YT I have ever seen. I was prepared to purchase a new TV, chalking it up to burn-in or just a cheap TV. A tip for when I was straining my eyes looking for the 12 & 13th pin - I took a 2x picture on my Iphone and then zoomed in when viewing the picture to blow it up, luckily my cable had blue markings every 5-6 pins that i could use as reference and the 12th pin happen to sit right below one of the blue dots. I used standard scotch tape and cut it with sharp kitchen shears. Thank you!

    You HAVE to open the bottom plastic cover to be able to see those 2 ribbon cables because the main plastic cover doesn't show the 2 cables, only one!
    Managed to fix it first try using the video shown here. Same method, you have to put tape on Pin 12 and 13 with the black isolation tape that came all over the TV.

    Thanks for the video! Here are a few tips that worked for me.
    1. Left side of the tv flickered so had to pull out the opposite ribbon to the one in this video. Then tape pins 68 and 69 (like others have said)
    2. Counted the pins by listening to an exacto blade go over each one. Was much easier to count the clicking sound and feel than counting just with eyes.
    3. I put blue marker on the tape so I could see the tape better and make sure I covered correct pins.
    Really happy I found this video. Now just have to wait and see if the right side fails too. Not a good sign there have been so many people with this problem. TCL👎

    Just pulled my TCL off the wall and taped the 12th and 13th contacts on the right screen ribbon. Worked like a CHARM! Thanks for putting this video up, sooooo tired of seeing my TV flicker!
    Your instructions are so clear that I was able to pull it off first try, but man those ribbon contacts are super small.

    It actually works.. thanks bro! Successful after 3 attempts switching on and off the tv to check. First 2 attempts of using overlapping scotch tapes didn't work. Finally works when I used a masking tape over the 2 layers of tape to fully block the connection. Easier to cut the tapes using penknife and cutting board. And magnifying glass to count the 12th and 13th strip.

    Note. Mine is a 55” tcl and the wire ribbons were located and arranged differently than in this video - but I looked for where I could find the “1-80” numbers marked and found it under a panel on the bottom. Removed panel, counted in to 12&13 and it totally worked. First go I saw a pink vertical bar but adjusted and it worked. Thanks again!

    Great job. I had to do something similar. It’s usually a blown pixel messing with the clock signal. Blocking off one the pins bypasses this. If you look closely at your screen you may notice one pixel line greyed out, but the rest of the screen works perfectly well. TCL panels seem to have this issue, BOE and AU Optronics panels seem spared. Good job making this content accessible.

    So it's just using scotch tape on pins 12 and 13 to avoid contact? What were those pins for? I wonder if the TV's heat can create glue to melt and move to other pins. How long have you test this out. Thanks, BTW!

    • @RadnusTechnology
      @RadnusTechnology  2 роки тому +5

      Hello, that's right, just scotch tape over the pins. Tested for about 2 weeks, no issues. Heat at the ribbon should be minimum, keeping fingers crossed. Those pins probably corresspond to Backlight auto adjustment functions which started malfunctioning causing the flicker and taping the pins disables that function altogether.

    @willythehero88 26 днів тому

    I read in the comments of other YT clips on this that this requires a hardware replacement. Which part? I assume that taping pins on the ribbons leading to the T con (timing control) board disrupts the signals of the respective circuits from reaching this board thereby not engaging whatever component is faulty. So, is it highly likely that the T con board is faulty? And is it sensible to simply replace it? I have seen prices in the $30-35 range for a T con board. That's incredibly affordable and a much better option than paying a repair shop or getting a new TV.

      Hello, glad to know that your TV display issue is now fixed. Thanks for sharing your experience. With regards to the pins, each pin controls a different function of the display and the flicker issue is related to malfunctioning of the automatic backlight control and by taping the pins that control this feature we are in a way disabling the feature that is malfunctioning. You will still be able to control the backlight through settings.

    I can't do it!!! Thank very much for the video though. It seems to have helped a lot of people with the same problem.

    Worked like a charm on my iffalcon 55k2a 😮😮
    Using the normal black insulated tape did not work for me, as it was too thick I guess, I used a thinner tape and it worked

    My Roku 55" TCL 55C803 4K UHD HDR has the problem where the top 1/2 or 1/3 of the screen has continual rolling up of a lighter screen. Any suggestions? The TV is about 5 years old. I went thru troubleshooting with TCL to no avail. Thx

    Fixed my TV just following this video. Saved me a bunch of money! 10/10 would recommend everybody facing the same issue to try this

    Thanks for posting a valuable video that solve the issue for many of us.
    My question is that what about top side of display flickering exactly same as your tv?
    My tv display flickering from top side.
    Thanks

    Worked for me, had right side flickering and some lines on the very top of the screen. Just make sure - as you turn the TV to work on it - to put the tape on the right ribbon, lol.
    Was a Mi TV btw
    Thank you very much
