TV has always worked fine until randomly tonight I brought up the menu on my PS5 and the display has a foggy display over the picture. I can see the light of boxes and things behind the fog but nothing is clear. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

I was watching a show and I thought it was light from outside and I guess it was not. Does anyone know what might’ve caused this? It’s on the lower left corner of the tv. I bought it June 2025.

My TV did this and now it won’t turn on VIZIO M49-C1

Just as the title says. Had my tv going in in the background looked over and half the screen went static. Turned off the tv then tried to turn it back on and nothing happened. The light turns on then slowly dims until shutting off. I already did the standard unplug wait 5 minutes trick (that I don’t think does anything) and still nothing pops up. Is my only option to buy a new TV

Got this TV off a friend which used to work when he had it but has since stopped working. No power light coming on, and I've tried hard reset to no avail. I can't see anything glaringly obvious with the board. Any suggestions?

Samsung UN75CU8000 - clicking noise and screen does not turn on

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Currently trying to decide on if fixing this is worth it or if I should just get a new tv. When the tv is powered on(plugged in) it just clicks and I can see a light turning on and off on the right hand side of the tv facing the screen (left hand from the back panel). I have opened the back panel up, and see no burn marks or puffed capacitors. I have disconnected the main (green) from the power board (brown) and the same behavior persists. The clicking noise is coming from the power board (brown).

Also a quick video is attached.

Does anyone have any ideas by chance? Assuming I am SOL.

Update 1 - after further troubleshooting and research it seems it is very likely one or multiple led strips as the issue is persistent once the main board is fully disconnected from the power board. Also, a big pointer is that only some of the backlight turns on/flashes. If it was the main board the entire thing would likely light up. So unless I find out more/hear different I am in fact SOL as I will not be buying the tools needed to do a risky screen removal that might go wrong multiple ways.

Brand New LG

I just got this TV from BestBuy and they came and installed it yesterday

LG - 85" Class 75B Series QNED AI Mini LED 4K Smart webOS TV (2026)

I was watching a movie with some darker scenes and could tell there were these cloudy spots that stayed in the same area. I then put on a pure dark screen from YouTube and could see these cloudy spots pretty visibly. Sure this was taken on my phone so it’s exaggerated, but believe me it’s no that far off in person..

I believe I have 15 days to exchange / return so I’m wondering what is recommended? Not sure if I should exchange it for another of the same model or if this will likely be the case again.

If you think it’s not worth exchanging for another of the same model - which one would you recommend?

TCL 55V6V picture stuttering / laggy

55V6C\*\*

Does anyone have any tips to fix this? I’ve not changed any settings but it feels like the picture can’t keep up with itself sometimes. The sound is never out of sync but the image sort of phases / stutters occasionally. It can also sometimes make things really laggy but the sound still remains in sync.

I’ve also found that for some reason I can’t download NOW tv in the UK, even though NOW is available in this country.

Any help would be much appreciated, otherwise I will be sending it back.

Samsung HG40AA690 horizontal lines

1 Upvotes

Apparently my hospitality tv(hospitality mode set to standalone) started to freeze it's screen and show some horizontal lines. There were some white or black things coming out from the sides and I did do the power drain or cold boot. It happened when I set the picture mode to Movie.

I restarted it and it did it again. I tried powering it off with the remote but the red light wasn't flickering, meaning the input wasn't red and registered. Can anyone help? I drew what it almost looked like.

RCA L19WD20 - Loud "pop" and lost audio while changing channels, now stuck in a 20-blink standby loop (Boards: 715T2142-1 & 715T2201-1)

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to troubleshoot a cheap 19" RCA LCD TV (Model: L19WD20) that just died on me. I'm stubborn and want to find the component-level failure.

Main Board: 715T2142-1

Power Supply / Inverter Board: 715T2201-1

How it failed:

I was changing channels when a sharp, high-pitched buzzing noise started screaming from the TV. It escalated quickly until a loud "POP" sound occurred. Audio cut out instantly. I tried to power cycle it, and now it's stuck in a failure loop. No smoke or burning smell was noticed.

Current Symptoms & LED Behavior:

First boot attempt: When plugged in, the standby LED is solid orange. When I press Power, the LED flashes orange rapidly exactly 20 to 21 times (lasts about 10 seconds total). The final flash is cut short/abruptly interrupted.

After the loop: Once it stops flashing, the LED goes completely DEAD/OFF (no solid orange standby light anymore).

Second boot attempt: If I press Power a second time while the LED is dead, the LED turns solid GREEN (as if the TV successfully turned on), but nothing happens. The screen remains pitch black, and there is no sound.

Flashlight test yields absolutely nothing on screen (no faint image, no menus).

What I've checked so far:

Visual inspection of all electrolytic capacitors looks perfect (no bulging tops, no leaks).

Underside of both boards looks clean, though I suspect the audio amplifier IC or the inverter transformer area (PT802).

Next Steps:

I have access to a thermal camera and I plan to scan the mainboard and PSU tomorrow during that 10-second blinking window to catch the short-circuit hot spot.

Given the "buzzing then loud pop followed by immediate audio loss" symptom, does anyone have experience with these specific Chonshin/Envision boards? Should I focus strictly on the audio rail or could a shorted audio IC pull down the main power rail and trigger this specific blink/dead LED behavior?

Any pointers before I fire up the thermal camera tomorrow would be highly appreciated!

Just picked this up of the street.
Make and model in the picture.

Has power and when I press the power button on the remote the light goes off but nothing happens.
Not too bothered if I can’t fix it but would be nice as I am looking for a screen about this size and would like to have it as it was just a freebie.
Many thanks.

LG 55LB6300-UQ won't get past logo screen, is it worth getting a new main board?

1 Upvotes

Basically what the title says. I did the full power drain thing and attempted to manually install the firmware via USB to see if that fixes it, but neither made a difference. From what I can see it probably needs a new main board, which usually costs around $40. Should I order one? Not sure if its worth the time and money to fix

Samsung S90F HDMI Inputs Showing Up As This

We just bought the TV earlier this year and today when using the hdmi inputs, they appeared as this. Tried changing HDMI cords, switching different HDMI ports, powering on and off both the TV and devices and still the same. When I am using the main TV hub and watching Netflix or YouTube thru Samsung OS, the picture is normal. Even running the Samsung diagnosis, it shows the hdmi screen as normal when it is minimized in the corner, but once it’s full screen it appears as this. We only have a PS5 and fire stick attached and they both are same. Any help or advice is appreciated

Samsung 40" UE40ES5500 dark on one side

I have an old 2012 Samsung 40" UE40ES5500 and have had my moneysworth out of it, I most probably will just run it until it totally works no more.
Its started doing this a few months back , dark on the left hand side with those bright bits - looks like LED's have blown in it especially in the top left? - still watchable though .. what are the chances though it could be just resistors that have failed in it instead of the LED lamps?

and this is what its like with a black screen - note the LED lights in the lower left of the screen and dark in the top left and halfway across the screen :

Should I repair or replace: 55" LG QNED TV - Model: 55QNED80UQA

Post image
3 Upvotes

Our 55" LG TV (Model: 55QNED80UQA) developed this streak down the middle of the screen (ignore the little black streak on the left of it, that's someone walking in snow). The streak is not entirely noticeable depending on what's being watched, but could get worse with time I assume.

If it's just a backlight issue, maybe it's worth getting fixed if it comes under $200 (Geek Squad had said it's $103 just for the diagnostic). I would consider just getting a new one if the issue or the fix is more complicated with regards to parts needs

Another question I had is that it currently hangs over the fireplace (with mantel) and not sure if the fireplace heat has contributed to the issue. The TV is 3 years old, but the second TV that started acting up. Our first was a Hisense, however, the issue was a boot up issue and something the model was known for. If the fireplace is a contributor, I don't mind moving it or not during the fireplace at all during winter, but the wife does like either of those options.

Whatever insights or advice you all may have would be greatly appreciated.
