All coffees are hugely appreciated and keeping me well caffeinated is likely to bring you many more helpful videos! ☕☕😊😊👌
I have this issue but it only happens when I play my ps 5 sometimes the dots are not there and sometimes they are only when I play certain games so I am confused on whether I need to get this repaired or not or maybe it is just something that can be fixed with the settings
We used this video to guide us through the process of fixing our LG TV with this problem. It took time and a lot of replaying parts of the video, but in the end it worked. This meant we didn't need to buy a new TV - much appreciation from the U.S. for the money you saved us!
That's fantastic Doug, and thanks heaps for the coffee!! ☕😃👍
followed your instructions. 40min later my 5 year old LG was good as new. thank you for the detailed instructions. 💪🏼
Fantastic! Well done mate 💪😀
Your video helped revive a 10 year old tv that I'd shelved a year ago and gave up on. It's up and running as well as new now!! Well done sir! 20
Awesome! Well done to you too! 😃👏
It's ridiculously easy to fix just about anything, minus expensive probable no longer being made lenses, all ya need is a little patience and enough area to set things down!
These manufacturers can really find a way for these lenses to stay in place. They don’t because they need to keep selling TVs.
Exactly!
Right and you look at their new products and they come with all sorts of energy saving, climate friendly features and materials - pure bullshit because the way they could actually help the environment is by building durable products that people can buy once and keep for decades instead of throwing out to a landfill after a couple of years! We're doomed...
It’s called designed obsolescence
They found away to make tv at a cheaper cost. Barley nothing inside
Very nice. Much easier way to fix these. Thanks!
I… cannot believe I pulled that off. Super thank you for the accessible walkthrough! 🙌
Well done! 🙌
As a Master Jedi, you should have more confidence in yourself though!😉 🤣
Now that's how to make a good repair video. Thanks for that. I found one of these shopping at "La Strada" or the roadside today. Now I feel confident I can fix it. I just need a table tennis table.
Edit:
Got the display apart and I also had a single one hanging on. I have one tip I want to add that I think might help people attempting this repair.
When you come to lifting the back plate, I found opening the fragile plastic locking clips very easy @9:38 if I slid a 2.5cm square of plastic along the groove sideways over the clips. This didn't bend the plastic clip any more than the bare minimum plus it also means you can release every clip and ensure they stay unclipped whilst separating the screen..
Very small chance of breaking one in frustration with ones that slip back in. I tried the plastic clips used on bread bags but it is too thick. But the size is about perfect.
I used a semi-rigid plastic lid supermarkets package baked goods like scones or biscuits in. I suppose a plastic milk bottle would also work fine. Just be sure to count how many you use and ensure you don't leave one inside. The clear ones are hard to see and it caused me a problem with one stuck in a clip on reassembly.
Another tip I have is to get a black (dark) marker and dab it onto the ends of the three little nubs. It makes lining them up with the LED holes much easier.
I used ordinary super glue.
TV works fine now except the smart features and apps are pretty obsolete as is the WEBOS version stuck way back at 1.4. Which I pretty much expected.
Haha, yep - don't forget the table tennis table!! 😂😂
Thanks mate 👍😊
Excellent guide. Worked like a charm with no hiccups. Thank you Chris
Thanks Craig, I'm pleased it went well for you! 👍😊
I want to thank you sir. Today I did your exact procedure with the help of my 5 yo son and we succeed!
Fantastic! Congrats to you and your son! 👏👍😃
Love your style: calm, reasoned, clear and explaining as you go. Very good.
Thanks Brian, appreciate the feedback! 😊👍
Sound like the complaints departmentment hehehe
Really well explained, not boring just straight to point and factual, well done sir 😊
Many thanks for your feedback Col! 😃👍
Thank you Chris. Safest method ever! Successful assembly here 🙌🏻
That is excellent to hear! Thanks Jean 🙌
Thank you so much, I followed your instructions and fixed my TV. Saved me £250, very grateful
Fantastic! I love reading comments like this! Well done to you 😊👍
Hi Chris, just here to say thanks so much for making this video! I followed every step, and my TVs picture looks good as new! I only had one loose lens, but decided to check the others aaaannnd just about every single one of them was one light tap away from falling out, so I glued them all. You saved me from buying a new TV. Thanks again!
Fantastic Tyler, that's great to hear! 👍😃
Thanks. This video is very helpful 👍
Thanks, this is good.
THANK YOU for this walkthrough, it was explained well enough that it also worked for my Vizio brand tv, as the components were different sizes but same configuration. The only main difference was the reflectors were *much* smaller, so there were 72 that had fallen out. In the end there were a small few that didn’t completely align, but they’re on the edges and they’re barely visible. Honestly I was just so happy the screen didn’t crack during the repair that those few misaligned reflectors don’t matter.
Well done on your repair Aimee! After awhile you won't even notice any slight shading/bright areas from misaligned lenses! 👍😊
Thank you. Good tip about doing the screen in two stages without removing the front screen layers.
You have given some confidence to attempt to save a Samsung TV with 12 missing diffusers.
Good work. All the best.
Glad it was helpful Nick! Good luck with your repair 😊
Thank you mate, our LG had one white spot, now it has two, and my guess is a whole lot more are about to show. I will definitely have a go at the repair and fix. Thank you for a great Aussie DIY video... should be more of them.
Thanks Col! Good luck with your fix mate 👍👍
I like how you go step by step to show us how to remove each item and how to do it without breaking anything I believe this is the best video out there to explain this problem and how to fix it step by step thank you for this video it's a big big help.😊😊
Many thanks - and glad it is helpful 😊👍
Great tutorial- fixed my daughters LG. Thank you!
Excellent! Nice work 👍😊
Great video. Although my TV is a Samsung and is constructed slightly differently, I managed to get it apart following your instructions and some improvisation. The thing I wasn't expecting was the Loctite Superglue Gel not working! I made several attempts, then switched to Gorilla Superglue, and that didn't work either! After a rethink I decided that the light brown film around each dot must be the residue of the original adhesive, and that it was preventing the new glue from curing. I found the only thing that works is to use a watchmakers tiny screwdriver, aided by a magnifying glass, to carefully scrape away the old adhesive around each dot (11 reflectors, 33 dots!) and from the back of each reflector. This was followed by dabbing away the old adhesive dust with a moist cotton bud, then drying all parts, again with a new cotton bud, then re-sticking the reflectors, again using the Loctite. Even then I had to hold each one is place for 60 seconds and not the 30 seconds stated on the pack. All I have to do now is reassemble the TV without breaking the screen! 🤞
Wow, you are certainly committing the time to this job! I haven't had any trouble with glue residue with any of the ones I've done, but I guess it depends on the type of glue the manufacturers used originally. Best of luck with the reassembly! 🤞😊
@@TheUltimateRecycler It's all back together now and working as normal, so many thanks to you and your instructions. A couple of things I did differently; I used low tack masking tape to secure the speakers in place as I used these as support blocks when I turned the tv over as my tv does not have those built-in pillars. I then used a thick paperback book as a third support block at the top of the tv. Also, I left the logic board in place and just disconnected the ribbon cable connectors to the strip boards at the bottom of the tv as this meant less parts 'flapping about' as I carried out the work. I photographed every step on my mobile as a reassembly guide. I actually found reclipping the outer bezel the most difficult part. The top and sides clipped in straightaway, but the bottom section took a lot more effort, and I suspect this is where some people might end up cracking their screens if they get frustrated. I just left it for a while, had a mug of tea, then went back to it with a fresh calm purpose. I think the only thing I would do differently in future would be to use quick-setting Araldite instead of superglue. Again, many thanks for a great instructional video.
Well that sucks. I also have a Samsung and noticed I have two spots. Not looking forward to dealing with the extra problem. Thanks for sharing! Always good to know what others have experienced.
Good luck with your repair. Hopefully it will prove easier than mine.
I'm going through that right now! I was not expecting the Loctite Superglue to not work. I let the glue sit all night and going to try my hand at putting it all back together today.
Dude! I watched this vid a few weeks or so ago, and just got around to checking my faulty, steadily worsening LG TV backlight last night.
I has a different issue and is a different model, but your vid helped with disassembly a lot. I had some burned rectifying (or whatever) diodes on the led strips, but I found some similar ones on an old sony TV mainboard, and it worked! I'm still going to have to replace the LED strips eventually, but no more flickering!
Just wanted to give a thanks for a helpful video
Thanks mate! That's excellent that you got your TV sorted! 😃👍
Amazing, thank you! Just completed my fix. Managed to save a step by leaving the front bezel on. My model is also April 2014 but had a removable sensor - slightly different, but overall much the same. Basically got a new TV 😅
Fantastic Vlad, well done 🙌😀
Great video. Great lighting and sound. Well explained. Excellent.
Many thanks Richard! And thanks for watching 😊
I fixed my tv with help of tour video. Thank you so much
That's awesome! Well done 👏😊
Good on ya, Mate! I love the idea of having the screen be face-down. I hope I can do the same thing with my 60 inch Samsung that seems to have a couple of bad backlight strips and is causing a gradual darkness along the top 1/3 of the screen. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks PJ. Yep, it's much safer having the screen down but you do need to be super careful clipping everything back together - making sure everything is aligned properly. Good luck mate 👍😊
I wish you lived right down the street from me. Between the two of us we could fix the world! Keep up the great work.
Aww thanks PJ, that's very nice of you! 😀😀
@@TheUltimateRecycler: It's my pleasure. Chris, do you discharge your TV's capacitors before working on the TV? I know enough to do this on a heat-pump unit but it didn't occur to me do so on this 60 inch Samsung TV and I got a pretty healthy jolt while I was simply disconnecting the individual LED strips from their shared supply line. My hair is still smoldering! :)
Great instructions I did my Samsung 65-inch smart tv so well explained. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Excellent Tony, well done! Thanks for watching 😊👍
Wow that us a very straightforward video ! Thanks !
Thank you! 😊
Wow ....one of the best "fix it" video's I have ever watched on the tube.....I'm thinking it's more than I want to get into but you never know.....
Thanks! That's great to read!! 👍😁
The best video I have seen on this topic. obviously I have a tv with the same issue
Many thanks! Hope you have success! 😊👍
Thanks for this - a local tv shop does these sets but so many end up in a heap in front of his door so I expect he breaks quite a few screens during surgery. I'll give this method a go if the need comes up.
Thanks Danny! 👍
My tv that's done the same is also an LG. Thought it was WAY beyond me but after watching your video, I think I'm going to give this a try.
Fantastic, best of luck Cameron! 👍😊
Very cool repair, I learned something new again ! Thanks
Thanks Retif 😊👍
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! This video was amazing, helpful and easy to understand. The best instructional video! I was able to fix my VIZIO tv.
That's awesome! Well done you! 🙌😃
Thanks , great video. I like taking the back off the screen way of doing this! Great tip
Thanks Neil! 👍😊
Great and very helpful video! My Samsung TV just had one of these fall off and with your assistance, I think I can tackle this one.
I'm sure you can do it Josh! 💪
Thanks a lot, I just repaired my LG TV with your guidelines. Excellent video all round. I was extra careful with the screen glass, as you showed and had no problems. Only thing, I had to improvise a the bit when you detached the long chips at the bottom, as my model was slightly different: I had to unscrew the full motherboard instead, which proved to be a good idea. On a side note, when glueing the back the clear cylinders, I reckon the three dots constraining the piece in place were still with glueing power, even after around 7 years, although you could sense that it would detach back again at some point later. I glued the three dots with Loctite, but because I had a well lit room I could see through the clear cylinder where to plug the piece rightaway, without much trial and error. Overall, thanks so much for your very instructive video!
Excellent, thanks for watching and I'm glad you've had success 👍😊
I revived my LG with this method! I even detached all of the ones that were still attached (to be safe) and used E6000 to carefully secure them all. So far so good!
Nice work Adam, well done! 😊👍
Thanks for information! Used it to fix my 65” LG TV.
Excellent, that's great to hear! 😊👍
You are the man, thank you for the knowledge.
Thanks Charlie! 😁
Thank you for the video, your instructions worked perfectly, and I didn't break the screen
Fantastic! Great to hear - well done! 👌👏
Thank you for this video! I've watched several that claim to show you how to repair the lenses but by the end they crack their screens. They shouldn't even have them titled as repair videos seeing as though they are junk by the time they're done. Anyone watching them and following their steps are just as likely to break their screens too🤦♀️
Thanks for watching! Yeah, watching a fail isn't always helpful - although I guess it shows you what not to do!
This is hands down the best video explanation I have seen for this type of repair. Thank you for this 👍
Many thanks Lucien! 😊👍
Hi Chris, thanks for making this video. I just finished a 7 year old Philips 43" LED TV with Ambilight. All of the lensens except one had fallen down. So it was quit a job to fix them all. The white circled outlines are all gone now. Now that I know how the tv looks on the inside and I'm paying more attention, i can see the actual 5 rows of lenses behind the screen.. or maybe I applied to much glue....? Very happy with the final result. Thanks again!
Thanks Adrian! On most LED TVs, particularly as they get older you can notice the array of lights if you look for them. Most people don't know so don't even register slight unevenness. Possibly regluing makes it a little more noticeable but it's better than not fixing the problem at all! 😊
My dad is about to give me a TV that has this issue, I am excited to try this out!
Excellent! Good luck with the job Oscar 👍
Ya beauty! Good video and that's mine all fixed. Had 12 spots and the rest of the lenses just flaked off. As for breaking the screen, if you go easy you'll do it all right. My only scare was the final bit to expose the lenses, there's a few stealth clips that really hold their ground. Big thanks
That's excellent Alan - nice work! 👍😊
Just a second comment to say thanks once again for this video - I have just replaced (fully) all the backlights in my 10 year old LG and it worked like a charm. A bit more difficult than I was hoping since actually getting in and doing it versus watching a video are two different things. The plastic clip in shrouding holding the optical filters in place was the most difficult thing. It does not help I am getting old and this sort of stuff is not as easy as it was when I was younger. But I hope it will give the TV a few more years of life as I would rather wait a couple more years before getting a new one (and I would rather like to keep this as an emergency spare regardless or maybe even use it in the bedroom with a second Nvidia Shield attached).
Excellent Jonathan, well done on your repair! 😊👍
Nice job, Chris (as always).
Thanks mate! 👍😊
nice video. You helped us fix the TV without messing with the screen. For me, the model is definitely the lf652v which has the main board in external plastic and the side board to go down, I faced difficulties because I had to remove the logic board to rest on the bottom since the tapes are difficult to remove. I also changed the rear lighting, I didn't stick them, but I faced difficulties in removing the white plastic pieces, as he wants to do them front to back, and it's better to push them from behind. in general, if you do it with your peace of mind, it is an easy process.
Glad you got your TV fixed! Thanks for watching 👍😊
Fantastic method..thanks for a clear and concise 👍explanation
Many thanks! 👍😊
Great video, thanks. Only one diffuser had fallen off but then I found about 20 more that were very loose. This should get me another 5 years or more out of this TV.
Excellent Greg, well done! 😊👍
Lifesaver tutorial video, succesful repair here. Thank you very much!
That's awesome! Well done you! 🙌😊
Just used this same disassembly method with a 75” Samsung. It’s multi bezel system sucks to get apart but for a screen this big leaving it face down was my only safe option. Thanks!
Excellent, I'm glad you managed to get the job done successfully! 😃👌
Solid job, learned something new
Thanks FF 👍😊
It worked!!! I was pretty discouraged with the super glue part. They felt loose, but I just went to bed and that morning closed the tv up and bam! Fixed. This is an 10 year old TV, hopefully I can keep it for another 10.
Great job Justin, well done!! 🙌
Thanks watching from London uk . I will try this
Excellent, I wish you well 👍😊
thank you very much for the good tutorial sir..
Thanks for watching Eli 👍😊
Thank's, very good work !
Many thanks Jean! 😊👍
This is great! Thank you
Thanks very much! 😊👍
Successful ly followed this as a guide. My (2015?) 42" LG TV was slightly easier as the screen could stay face down throughout the process ; the diffuser/backlight sub-assembly lifted off from the front bezel and LED screen without having to turn it over at all.. Thanks1
Awesome Michael, that's great! 🙌😊
Great video. One thing worth mentioning is that if someone is having to open up a 10 year old plus TV, it is worth replacing all the capacitors in the power supply while it is open as there is no way they would be working anywhere near to original spec at that age. Saves one from having to open the TV for another 10 years!
Fair point Jonathon, but then it's pretty easy to access the boards if the need arises down the track. Much easier than getting to the LEDs anyway!!
Awsome repair video!
Many thanks Tech481! 😊👍
I have the same TV with the same Problem.... thank you very much sir....
No worries! Good luck with your fix 👍😊
Video is going to make my life easier 🙏🏾
I hope so Chris! Good luck 👍😊
Thank you for your guide👍
Thanks for watching! 👍
Awesome work 👍 👍 👍
Many thanks Jesus! 😁
Thank you so much for your video!!!!!
Thanks for watching! 😊👍
Thanks, great! Just what I need to do and I even have a table tennis- table as well!😀
Perfect Jörg! 😀👍
Mate awesome video! I have the a Lg 60LB5610 and it has done the same thing. It was left in storage for a while and when i turned it on recently I had all the same white dots. I thought it was stuffed! I just got the misses over the line to upgrading to a OLED. I'll keep this video on the low and fix it once we pick up the new one🤣
Hahaha! Thanks mate. I'll be sure not to mention the possibility of repairing the old tv then! 😉🤣
OLEDs aren't worth the very small improvement.. we see tons of OLED display failures in warranty. If you have to have one, make sure you get a 5 year warranty from a company that will actually stand behind the warranty.
I agree Chris, I would never remove a screen from the front. Keeping it face down and flat is the best way as you did. Great repair job. 👍
Exactly! The strange thing is, everyone on UA-cam seems to remove the screen from the front! Crazy!!
I was wondering, does the front frame have to come off in order to remove the clips? And I presume you need to hold the screen in place while turning it while the front frame is off?!
Nice n clear video thank you.
You are welcome, thanks for watching! 😊
I’ve watched quite a few of these repairs to build up the courage to do my tv. This definitely seems to me to be the best one to follow. Thanks
Thanks streakyfish, best of luck with yours! 👍😊
Great video! From another Aussie here, I'm a little nervous at opening my Samsung to repair the lenses, but it doesn't appear that there's the same electricity risk as the old cathode ray tube TVs, discharging them first etc
Yeah modern TVs are less hazardous than CRTs as far as high voltages go. But don't have it turned on while apart, and be careful around the power board and large capacitors in general as they can hold a charge.
Excellent, Great Video!!
Thanks Jesse! 👍😊
Well I tried it and the procedure is good. I have an LG 55LB6300 I glued about 35 crystals back on. Putting the thing back together however was tough. The chassis was hard to get down and clipped back inside the screen. I did eventually get it all back together and it seemed great. However when I turned it on the screen was junk. Just a bunch of lines and several cracks on the corners. Oh well, it was nine years old.
Good on you for giving it a go all the same. The LCD screens are so delicate and they pretty much need to "fall together" as any force at all will crack them. No great loss though as the TV was no good as it was. Thanks for watching 👍😊
Am ur new subscriber frm the Philippines. Very nice video.
Welcome Antonio! Thanks very much 😊👍
cheers chris enjoyed that
Thanks Shane! 😊
thank you... for the Guide... I am also facing the same issue in my LG 3D TV (LB6200)
Thanks! Best of luck for your repair! 👍😊
Excellent save Chris. One less for the landfill.
Cheers NN 🤜🤛
Thanks NN! Fairly easy, but quite time consuming! Still, it has been saved! 👍😊
I was just watching my 55" samsung tv and heard this sound like something dropped. I got up and looked around and couldn't find anything that fell? I go back to watching tv and I have this bright light in the middle of my tv. I google what's going on, which brought me to your video. So that sound was the reflector/lens falling inside my tv and now my anxiety is racing watching this video wondering if I could possibly do this? Your video looks straight forward, and I like the keeping the LCD always laying flat so not to break it idea.... My tv is 10 years old so I'm guessing it's common but I've never seen this happen on any flat-screen tv my family has ever owned. But at least I have answers as to what exactly happened.... and it IS fixable. (It ain't broke.) Thanks again for making such a straight forward video. My tv is Samsung though, but the process would probably be very similar?
Thanks Michael. Yep, I think all LED TVs would be very similar. It is quite a common problem as these TVs age - cheap glue that breaks down over time with heat. It didn't happen with earlier flatscreen TVs that used fluorescent backlighting and not with plasma TVs either - just the LCD LED TVs
What a video, what a ledge! I will ve doing this soon mate as i have all these bloody cirlces on me telly 😂
Thanks mate! Best of luck with your repair 😊👍
I'll try this for Sony TV. It should be fine as far as i see from other videos of replacing LEDs on the same model. Looks dangerous to me to lift the LCD alone by hands as well as using these suction cups which are actually for glass and they may damage the screen. They are not even completely smooth. They have some bump in the middle. I was researching how to do this for a while and this looks the best method as you don't disassemble the screen assembly at all. Thanks a lot
Thanks, yes - it is the safest for the screen I think. Good luck with your repair 😊👍
Brilliant, thanks
Thanks for watching! 😊👍
Nicely done! Having a Video of the dismantling is really useful to remember how it came apart... I'm shocked the glue has failed on so many of the lenses, I'd be contacting LG and asking for a TV recall. Because it looks like the manufacturer is at fault!
It's a very widespread problem Martin and I'm sure TV manufacturer's are aware of it - but they just want to sell new TVs! 🙄
@@TheUltimateRecycler Really! Wow I've never seen this issue before your video... then again my personal upgrade path was CRT, Plasma and then Oled... perhaps I sidestepped the issue?
@@martincowie4520 Seems you sidestepped with class mate! 👍👍
Not a safety issue - no recall.
It seems to be an issue with LG. Same happened with my LG, only thing was that the repair gut didn't focus the diffusers properly, so there were a few glare spots on the screen till the set eventually packed up completely...
I reckon flipping the TV after removing the front bezel or before installing the front bezel is still dangerous as the screen is not always glued to the matrix frame and can fall out or is only supported by ones hands on the side. Thank you for the very clear repair video!
Any movement of the screen at all is dangerous, that's why I just leave it flat on the table and lift everything away from it! Thanks for watching 😊👍
Thanks for this excellent video. I've just found a smart 50" tv in someone's front yard ready for the tip and this is the problem. If this works I've saved a few quid and got a good tv. How's the glue holding up.
Fantastic Danny, hope it goes smoothly for you! This TV has been our main loungeroom telly since I fixed it and it's still going strong! 😊👍
No luck on a Vizio M65-e0, I'm afraid. There's no inner bezel, only a filter frame which doesn't secure the LCD panel. So while I've got the reflectors glued back on, now I find that I can't flip it back over to put the bezel on without the LCD shifting out of place. Too big for a one man job! I'll try again tomorrow with help and hope all is not yet lost. Still, it was worth a shot! I wouldn't have paid to have it repaired, so no real loss either way. Thanks for the informative video nonetheless!
Thanks for watching DJ. I hope you were able to get it together ok..
Great Video, TY... I have the 50" model and just got it apart... There were only 2 lenses dislodged but there were 20 or more white circles. What else could I do while its open to fix the white circles on my screen that were not dislodged? TY!!!
Hmm, if the lenses are still attached and seated properly, you shouldn't have white circles! Maybe the LED intensity is too bright?
Great work Chris, easy fix too, I'll remember that 🙂🙂
Yep, any valve radios that rattle may just have loose backlight lenses! 😉🤣
Dankeschön aus Deutschland.
Thankyou very much.
Thanks for watching! 😊👍
Excellent video! How would you do the same job on a curved screen tv, when the screen cannot be laid flat, without risking breaking the screen? My daughter's Samsung curved screen has developed one bright spot after I mounted the screen on a wall bracket after removing the stand, presumably the movements and tipping have caused one lens to become detached.Thank you for your help. Alan.
Thanks Alan! I've been asked that a few times and I haven't done a curved screen model, so not sure there. I'll certainly film the job if I get one!
That's just what happened too my TV. 😁👍
It's a pretty common problem unfortunately!
@@TheUltimateRecycler agreed. 😁👍
helpfuful
Excellent! Thanks Mark 👍😊
Hi Cris, this si a very good explanation. Thank you!.. do you might have a same tutorial for a Samsung 55Inch UN55J5300AFXZP model ?
Thanks Franklin! 😊 If I find one of those models, I'll do a video on it for you! 👍
Mind you that this might not go as smooth on all (newer?) models. I did this on a 55PUS6401 and ended up cracking the LCD.
While removing the inner chassis (10:26), the plastic bezel came apart (was badly taped together) and a few sheets that are behind the LCD panel (and should be aligned during re-assembly) became loose and I had a hard time trying(!) to re-align all of those and I think while putting the chassis back in place and trying to fit things, I cracked the LCD. If I had known up front that the situation after lifting the inner chassis would be such a mess, I would have never wasted any time on this.
No big loss here since I was going to trash the TV anyways because it was a temporary one that had some more defects other than a small white circle but I wanted to see if the white circles could be as easily fixed as suggested in the video(s). In the end I did manage to glue the diffuser back on and put the tv back together but as mentioned, with a broken LCD on the bottom side where I struggled the most to re-assemble.
I hope this helps someone else who is willing to attempt this. Given my experience I would say that on some models this might be a VERY risky repair. If you DO proceed then make sure to pay EXTRA attention when extracting the inner chassis to make sure everything under it stays in place and take a good look before completely removing the inner chassis completely to see how things are put together.
good luck, you'll need it.
Thanks for your feedback Mr W. Yes if things get out of alignment, assembly is more complicated. Someone else mentioned a similar issue, but many have had success and I haven't had any cracked screens in the few that I've done. It possibly does depend on the models - slightly different construction with the bezels perhaps.
Ultimately the TVs are no good really without the repair and no one would pay a repair shop to do the job on an older TV - so I feel it's worth a shot anyways. In just about every case, it's no big loss if you fail. Cheers, Chris
Youu saved me from buying a new tv. Thank you
That's awesome to hear! Thanks for watching 😊👍
Hi thanks for the video already try it its work and quick question i accidentally scratch my lcd is that okay? Its still turn on and work as normal😊
A scratch to the LCD screen shouldn't affect things other than a visible mark where the scratch is. Well done on your repair 👍😊
great vid! do all lg tv have same inside part?
The LED ones pretty much have the same set-up. Thanks! 😊
JB weld light activated worked for me. It was SO easy. My samsung diffusers with not fitting tight, and superglue did not hold after 12 hours. The light activated was sold after 10 seconds.
An excellent option David, thanks mate! 👍😊
I don't think there is anything you can't fix. This was so interesting. Is your shoulder ready for that??? Thank you
Thanks Cynthia. I don't like to say "I can't do that"!! Shoulder is fine now - very happy with it. Still doing my physio exercises though to build strength! 😊
