Samsung TV LED backlight failure

    Ran into the identical problem with my mother's 32" Samsung. Both LED strips were bad on it. There were actually burn marks around the LED's that most likely initially dead shorted, before opening. The set only lasted 6 months. Since this was a black Friday purchase, the light strips were half the cost of the TV, so I purchased a new one for her and listed the individual boards on Ebay. The only inquiries that I have had for them were from people asking if I still had the LED backlights...............

    The main problem is no one is telling the costumer to keep the backlight settings low, just about all the ones I repair ( 5 a day now in the uk) are set at 100% , if they were at 75% they would last years longer. I set mine after repair at 45% and the picture is fine.

    This is no different than back in the CRT days.In that all important drive to have the brightest picture with the most contrast, manufactures made tubes with very dark glass to reduce reflections. Then they cranked the sh1t out of the tube to make it a table lamp not a TV, and people wondered why the picture tube was shot after 4 years, when their old set lasted 20+ years,

    $40 for 5 new 10 LED strips for a Sharp 43" Roku TV. Mine had 4 of the 5 strips with 1 or 2 bad LED's I could power it up and see one strip flash and then go out. Each LED on the strip has a + - test point and in continuity mode you can see each one faintly glow if good. I tried to replace the bad ones and got them to all fire but the LED's were the wrong value and didn't glow bright at all. It worked but I had dark spots on the screen and then they too failed after about 30 minutes. I could not find the correct value LED's (maybe 6V 250ma? super bright!) so just bought 5 new strips and all is well. Be very careful with the LED panel when lifting off the diffusers, its pretty thin and fragile. Best is to lay it panel face down and lift the backlights off the supported panel. There were 3 layers of diffusion under the LCD. Fresnel, diffuser and opaque layer.

The guy that brought it to me is not the owner, he is the system integrator so I am dealing with an installer, giving him the diagnosis, and he is dealing with the owner. Installer called me and said throw it together and I will pick it up.

    My only issue with my Samsung LED tv UN55FH6030F is the backlight. when I increase the backlight to 12 and up the screen will get very dark and when it’s on 11 it is not bad but not presenting a good quality of image and it’s dim. Appreciate your advice if this could be the Capacitor problem or the LED light strips? Thanks

    I've come across the same problem and the problem usually is the power supply. Symptoms are exactly the same: the 12V line is hovering somewhere near 9V and backlight is flickering. I suspect there is a problem with the PFC chip underneath the power supply since the voltage on the main reservoir capacitor is at 330V, not 390V, where it should be. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find the chip so I can't verify this, so I have just replaced the whole board.

    Thanks for the video, but being technologically challenged I need advice on how to get started. My 60" Samsung LED backlight went out, and a Geek Squad guy ordered a board for me. The board just got here today and I'm going to try to tackle this myself. I have just one basic question: If the TV is attached to a stand (sitting on a desk), is it necessary to take the stand off to remove the back panel? Once I get the back off I'm sure I can compare the new board to the old one to replace it. Thanks.

    I'm dealing with a system integrator that removed the set from the end customer and brought it to me. I would love it if he said keep it, because then I would find the LED that is out and fix it like I did that Philips LED that went south a few years ago. Same thing. A bunch of LEDs in series, so if one goes you loose the string, and the way these units are set up if you loose a string it upsets the current draw on the PSU and throws an over or under current fault that shits the set down.

If it's just a couple of LEDs out you can't really tell once it's back together because of the diffuser. I also tell people to turn their backlights down on their LED TVs a bit to lower the load on these circuits, it will extend their life. Often they are set to 100% at the factory.

    There are a number of possible causes. It could be a single failed LED inside the panel. I have had a resistor on a set similar to this go open. It was a 10 ohm resistor in the PFC (power factor correction) circuit that sent up in value to about 250 ohms but that put the set into a shut down mode with 5 double blinks of the power light.

    the design is not good, many leds in series, this makes the weakest one get stressed by higher voltage. Once one fails, next one is stressed out. In li-ion batteries, they use balancers to evenly charge them, you can see an example in which they couldn't cheap out on parts, as it could explode. On leds, they don't care.

    derek mcdonald double imaging especially jittering is always a panel failure, any horizontal lines or horizontal effects are always panel related due to tab bond failures in the panel. Tcon issues will generally be loss of video entirely, symmetrical vertical bars and similar. Any localized effects are always panel related because lvds data to tcon are in 8-10-12 bit data streams and will effect the image globally when you get failures outside of the panel... thin vertical and horizontal localized lines... shadowing, ghosting and horizontal jittering is always panel related

    Troubleshooting my first free-to-me-dead-LED-TV. Samsung UN48j5000. PSB is L48MSF_FDY BN44-00852A, LED strips are: 2015 SVS48 FCOM FHD DOE A RIGHT REV1.2 150605 LM41-00120Q_LM4100149A. No joy with SM or schematic search. I pulled the back off. Saw no bulged caps, black R's, nor burn marks on any of the three boards. At first plug in, I heard BZZT...BZZT....BZZT about once/sec. I was looking at the back-of-the-set when this occurred. Sounded like the noise was coming from behind the Main board. I also detected a faint whiff of electricity/ozone/something getting hot. Sounded like arcing. With power to backlight connector removed, I was able to verify V's to Main board as OK. Stripped it further down so I could view the backlight strips. Found bad burn mark on strip 2 up from bottom, on far right hand side, between second-to-last & last LED. Burn area nearly full 'height' of tall trace (8mm) and about 13mm side-to-side!! WTH? All 32 LEDs (4 strips x 8 LED's/strip) stil worked when tested with bench supply. Attempted to repair burned area but no joy. I may just cut the end off & complete the series strip ckt with solder, then see of the PS will power up, stabilize and light the remaining 31 LEDs. If not, arcing may have damaged something in backlight driver ckt on backside of PSB. I've done a close visual inspection. Didn't notice anything. Out of all the videos I've watched, only seen one with a burn mark on a strip. Why in the world would arcing begin between two LEDs? Very odd failure. Perhaps at this place in the series diode string the voltage must have been high enough to arc to the metal backing of the strip? After some PSB tracing I discovered that though there are four pairs of backlight wires (+-1, +-2, +-3, +-4), there is only a single series ckt AND a single backlight driver. Not two or more like some larger sets. 3V x 32 LEDs = 96V. I wonder if the BL driver ckt raised the driving V to its MAX attempting to bridge the growing burn area which looked like an open to it? Interested in your thoughts!

    I finally figured it out. The strip I repaired drew way too much current. Must have been very damaged. Another LED on another strip began to sizzle so I immediately pulled the plug. Found local shop selling two right-hand-strips. Installed these and now all four strips (32 LEDs total) lit up fine and bright! Voltage & current draw for backlight ckt and drivers is back to normal. Learned a lot fixing this one. Second issue has to do with a few vertical stripes on the screen. I enjoy your videos! BTW, you helped me disassemble an old Sony Hi-8 camcorder and fix it. Ditto for an old mid-80's JVC HiFi VCR deck I still use on a regular basis! Much thanks for lighting the way!

    Ok quick test on samsung tv's you can do and this is from samsung GSPN fast track manuals so it is proven... All samsung sets from the C series up will self power on the PS when you disconnect the main from the PS by removing the cable between them. When plugging in the set at this state the backlights should come on immediately and stay lit at full brightness and the power supply voltages should come on. If you dont get backlights or backlights are erratic you can eliminate the main from the equation. I saw in the video the BL was pulsating when you disconnected the main it was still pulsating.. knew immediately it wasnt a main issue and it had BL failure.. its been non stop with so many LED sets today its not funny!

    I had the exact same TV, and the bottom half LED strip died. I could still watch TV but the bottom half would be darker than the top half. That was the last time I bought an edge-lit TV, and a Samsung TV. It only lasted about 5 years, which was a huge disappointment.

    Took entire tv apart and tested each LED strip. ALL GOOD. Replaced PS board and same result. TV starts up, i see LEDs come on and then go out. Flashing red 2 times and then it tries to start up again and again.... When I disconnect either one of the ribbon cables going from main board to panel the backlights stay on but when I connect both, the less go out. This one has me stumped.. Owner says they were watching tv and it just went out.... Let's see who can solve this one..

    If you bypass the backlight you are adding extra voltage to the others meaning they will burn out quicker. Any 3v led from any TVs will work, it doesn't have to be the same strip

    It may be ok to by pass one 3.5v led even though I don't advise it, but yesterday I did an LG 49 inch that had 12 faulty LEDs , so you can't by pass 40 volts they have to be replaced. These LEDs were advertised as having 10.000 hours. Lucky if they see 1000.

    I doubt that many of the LEDs that are advertised as having 20,000 live spans will last beyond 1 - 2000 hours. I am changing more LEDs at my house than the old compact fluorescents that did last 10 years. I have CFLs that are 12 years old and still going strong, but the LEDs seem to only last 2-3 years, and those ones were really expensive too.

    The reason for the high voltage is the LEDS are in series. This allows low current. If the LEDs were in parallel the voltage would be low, but the current high, and this would require a laager transformer, and heavier wiring. Of course the down side of series LEDs is if one goes bad, you loose the entire strip.

Only 420.00 so if that only last a few years I won't feel so bad.

    I feel the same way about "unproven technology". When SSD's came out for computers, a tech for a local hospital I know was raving about how they bring new life into old computers because of their speed. I simply felt they were TOO NEW to fully trust with valuable data. So I have waited a few years to make that leap. Guess I am ABOUT ready, lol!

For surface errors, you can skip the area and still get most of files back. Had a WD hdd with bad sectors, I even partitioned it such that empty space was covering the bad areas and could continue using it for non-important backups, i.e. backups of another backup drive.
