  • Today, I show how to fix a Samsung TV with dark / dim screen. I have this curved TV where the left side went dark (well, 90% was dark). Went in with some fresh LEDs and it looks better. Would like to share what I learned along the way too.
    NOTE: On the burned plexiglass, it's best to sand down / dremel the burned areas until they're gone, and then reinstall it into the TV the same way. The way the plexiglass is made, it's supposed to darken the section closest to the LED and brighten the section away from the LED. It should be installed the same way, not flipped.

    On the burned plexiglass at 5:32, it's best to sand down / dremel the burned areas until they're gone, and then reinstall it into the TV the same way. The way the plexiglass is made, it's supposed to darken the section closest to the LED and brighten the section away from the LED. It should be installed the same way, so avoid flipping it as I mention in the video. If you do not dremel down the burned areas, TV will appear yellow like at 9:40.

      The dremel trick might reduce the yellowing of the picture, but the cracks will still show, so it's not worth the effort. Really, the diffuser should be replaced, if it could be found.

      @@EdwardInTX I have the Samsung UN55NU7300FXZA. As with your's in the video, my plexiglass is cracked and the inner white panel next to it had LED heat damage. Smelled, LOL!!! I got it fixed and it is watchable but the cracks and heat damage do show on the bottom. Can those parts be found at a reasonable cost. Now that I know how, it'd be an easier task. Best advice I can give to others about doing your own repair is to have and use patience and a small and thin straight blade screw driver to remove the white inner frame and twist at the tabs just enough to clear the lock points. My only left over parts were the few I broke and then thought about the smaller screw driver and that worked. But I also slowed down the process. Great video. Thanks Edward.

    We followed your guide and were able to fix the tv so that it was watchable again but it was far more difficult for us noobs than it seemed in the video. Many of the little plastic tabs broke and a small chunk of the bezel broke, etc. The one issue that we have now is that when we turned it back on and could see the screen, the picture looks like its being viewed on say.. something like cardboard or some other sort of material and on the far right side, there's an inch where the picture stops instead of going to full side. We obviously messed something up in putting it back together and the two that helped aren't interested in repeating the pull apart process because it was such a hassle for us. No matter what though, the good news is that the process you demonstrated worked and we can now see the full screen. Whatever caused the other issues was something we somehow did. Thank you for the video.

    Few tips for anybody giving it a go:
    1) when you get to remove the LCD panel I found if you very carefully slide a bed sheet) or something similar) under the panel you can easily slide the panel from the base without damaging it.
    2) tape the 2 white sheets under the (LCD Panel) together so you don’t lose their orientation/order.
    3)do the same for the plexiglass and white backing as it is KEY this goes in the correct way or light will not amit correctly.
    4) make sure the white frame clips securing the felxiglass are fixed in correctly. (I made this mistake and I had a lot of LED bleed along the bottom edge just from 2 clips not in correctly)
    5) if you put it all back together and the bottom of the screen is very light and top very dim. Your Felxiglass is upside down. Unfortunately you have to take it all apart again and turn it so the top edge is at the bottom. Trust me it a lot easier to take apart the second time. ( you can also plug the tv in with just the plexiglass clipped in to see if the light is covering the entire panel. Instead of reassembling the whole tv to find it's not).
    But Thanks Man what a helpful video! Wouldn’t have tried doing this myself if I didn’t watch it and now have a good as new working TV!

Unfortunately, I hadn't read your comment about the plexiglass orientation and that dark-on-bottom/light-on-top thing, so I'll be re-doing it tomorrow. For now, the light strips are working great.

      ​@@reallaknight503If the screen is black then it means that the signal isn't getting from the board to the screen. I'd double check the seating of the ribbon cable, I found it a little tricky to get it seated right. If that still doesn't work, check the other end of the cable and if that still doesn't work, check to see that there's power getting to the boards.

    This was super helpful, however I had 2 issues. In taking off the black front enclosure I snapped two clips because I started on the bottom. Starting on the sides and top seems to make the bottom clips easier to get out.
    Second, there was some burn on the inside, so I rotated things like you mentioned, but now the bottom of the screen is extremely bright compared to the top. I don't want to take the screen apart more than once more because of the aforementioned snapped clips, so I need to figure out whether I need to push all the interior panels and sheets as far to the bottom as possible (they oddly don't all fit exactly with the screen size by a few millimetres and may not be sitting flush with the bottom, which might be the issue) or I need to just put things back like they were with the slightly burned panel (might see if I can clean off some of the brown, as the burn isn't as bad as yours). Any ideas?

    • @EdwardInTX
      @EdwardInTX  3 роки тому

      On number 2, you are correct. I pinned my other comment hoping people would see it. On the burned plexiglass, I've found it's best to sand down / dremel the burned areas until they're gone, and then reinstall it into the TV the same way. The way the plexiglass is made, it's supposed to darken the section closest to the LED and brighten the section away from the LED. It should be installed the same way, not flipped.

The oven part of the range failed twice, the fridge ice maker froze over daily and stopped producing ice. The metal finish is so thin that it dents with almost no pressure.

    Hey thanks for the walkthrough. I followed your directions and I’m ecstatic that it fixed the issue, but now I have a bad backlight bleed like you described towards the end of your video. I remember I flipped it upside down with the plexiglass. If I disassemble everything, and flip the white sheet back the way it was and leave the plexiglass, will it fix the backlight bleed? Thanks.

    • @EdwardInTX
      @EdwardInTX  3 роки тому +3

      Yes, with the caveat being the paper has to be really flat to even the light out properly (caveat: the curved tvs are much harder to straighten than that flat panel)

    I Would have liked a few shots of the whole back of the tv, can you confirm what boards are they, main board, power board etc?. Before I dismantle ours I am wondering if it is worth it cost wise. Ours went bang & I would like to replace all boards as I suspect the power board took them all out?.

    • @EdwardInTX
      @EdwardInTX  Рік тому +1

      9:18 - 9:26 show the main board (green) and power board (brown). Those are the two main ones. If either of those don't fix it, there's a deeper problem in the panel that isn't worth fixing.

      If there are brownish spots at the end, sand them off. The cracks will show a little brighter than the rest of the screen, but not really bothersome.

      The pins should be touching each other. There are two very little tabs on each side of the part the ribbon cable goes into. Slide it in so they are under those tiny tabs, and pins are facing down. If that doesn't answer your question, I don't quite understand what you are asking.

My brother and I were on the last step of moving the lcd panel back in place with a team lift, only for the screen to crack in the same corner I replaced the broken leds. Now instead of half a screen being black, I have about %96 a screen with a crack in the corner.

      It can be laid on a flat surface.
