This is the only fix I’ve found with some success but one side of my display is dark and has lost its warmth, I’ve played around with the positioning and the width of the cut of paper but I either get the lines back or have Grayish colours down one half Mine also went past just the lines and the centre of the tv freezes and it’s very annoying

Thought I'd gone mad. First 5 minutes is repeated. Of course, I might still have gone mad, too.

Allen, you make it look so easy. It’s a credit to watch you. Great steers with the extra protection against palm oil contamination. Brilliant upload. Regards, Brian 👍👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

My Samsung tv's picture is showing 2 of everything, is it worth fixing it

Hello everyone I've got a 55 inch Samsung curved tv the sheet as burn marks at bottom will any Samsung 55 inch sheet be OK even flat tv cos it's only a flat being curved ye many thanks any help would be appreciated thankyou

I wonder if the new mainboard had the backlights set to max and the old one didnt, and it maybe killed off the leds that were on the way out. I did one of these ambilights where i bypassed a bad led and the tv only lasted a couple of days, ended up having to get a new set of strips for it, also ive done a couple of these where there was high resistance over those connectors in the middle of the strips..always worth checking over them

thank you!!!!!! fixed mine. any help with a teething baby ?about 11 month old ive lost the remote control.

Just found an old Samsung LE32S86BDin the road a few roads away from me just tried and its not even cracked and goes fine and HDMI is OK to.

A job worth paying £100 to £150 for if looking perfect

Greetings: Television sets have degraded since the 50s. I remember watching a set glow about 5 minutes then the sound came on. Another 10 minutes the picture started. About 20 minutes I was watching McHale's Navy. Yhe fun part was shutting it off after and then the lights. 30 minutes later, the screen was still glowing. A great nightlight 4 that last minute bathroom run. Those of U who can relate 2 this understand my point. These young pups think the new panel sets R so great. The truth is young laddys, the consumer market has been a disposable business after the 80s (including autos). They love 2 tease me about my old dinosaurs. Yeah but they still function.. and I can repair them if they fail...with a smile.

Greetings: I think U handled it oroper. I have done the same. $4!T happens. Sometimes not by our hand. Thx 4 the share.

Allen you were lucky there, if you have a scrap tv the clips that hold frames down on vestels it’s like half an oblong those that normally break off keep them as they can be used to lift the prism sheet off of the leds, they act like a spacer you can space them out evenly hope you understand what I mean 😊

Another Samsung edgelit saved from the recycling bin. I have found that many of these sets start to develop patches showing the area where the leds are just before the go completely. Give me a full backlight any day over edgelit.

Not seen the inside of one of those TVs before Allen. Nice repair. Good to see that you are sorting the backlights issue without charging them. I am sure that it will be good for you in the long run. Let’s hope so. Regards, Brian 👏👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👏👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Nice fix Allen and always nice to see something a little different being repaired. Regards, Brian👍👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

i should have picked up a 2 year old hisense tv i saw dumped in the street, most likely backlights the next day kids had smashed the screen out of it a 4k set with hdr .They use double sided tape on the reflection sheet and the one guy i watched made it look a pain and thats why i left it ,the day after another american guy i follow done the backlights on a 65 inch hisense set he carefully manipulated the sheet and made it look far easier ,he used to suction cup things to remove the screen ,had his video came out a day before i would have got it .

Some repairs can become a nightmare you can do without. All part of the rich tapestry of life when it comes to consumer electronics. We have all been there at some point. I hope it stays fixed this time.

Wish i had skills like that. What is the rough price of a job like that? If that was my TV i would would have binned it and got another, id have thought the price to repair would not be worth it.

I've done 1 of these but put a née backlight in 90 pounds from ebay. When I removed the screen I'm sure I cliped the black frame of and lifted the screen of with the frame I'm sure it looked like you removed the adhesive away from the screen.

Are the back lights expensive? After all, they are only led's.

Nice fix Allen I hope it stays working I used to have them come back a week or so later now I just replace the whole set, or replace every led as it’s quicker then waiting 12 days for a set to turn up 😊

Have to surmise that the LEDs started to go on the fritz, and the customer got round this by turning the backlight control right down (which I think everyone should do out the box). You replace the main board but that was set to run the LEDs at full pelt again? 2019 and needing new backlights, pathetic really. Good old China!

Tbh I'd rather take out a couple of dozen screws that I can replace vs random plastic clips that I'll probably break.

Do you ever get to the point?????

You usually replace both diodes. I've done a bunch of repairs like these on tool battery chargers. However, I usually put in the physically biggest diode I can find. For something like this, I'd put in a TO-220 or even TO-243, just so that they have a bigger heatsinking surface. Those tend to be dual diodes and I just connect the two in parallel and make it into a compatible pinout by soldering a 1.5mm2 wire to the back, snipping off the middle pin and connecting the side pins in parallel... As it's the component that heats up the most and often times they are used in the sun, you have to go above and beyond on designs without fans.

There appears to be a downloadable manual for the remote on manualslib (not implying that there is anything wrong with how you are programming it, but it may help). I suspect you already know that from about 04:00 to 07:00, your video repeats.

Another Schotky diode bites the dust. I am convinced that they fit underated ones to ensure you throw it away and buy a new speaker.

Another feather in your cap Allen nice quick fix thanks for sharing 😊

Nice one Allen. Love the TV repairs but always interesting to see something different. Yes it's a TV channel but we're all up for learning about other stuff. Keep up the good work 👍

try 200 then 201 and so on it may take half an hour but im sure 1 of the 200s will turn it on. good luck.

I have a few of the one for all ones

You could have shortened this video to 5 minutes, you dragged it out.

Stupid background music renders video useless

Re doing free repairs, i have been in this situation and it always the case that expensive parts are required, what i do is only charge for the parts if the customer can afford them. Going back many years when you visted customers homes to do the repair you could tell the genuine cases of hardship, and i have often done low cost repairs to try and help them make ends meet.

Allen I noticed there’s loads in the code book starting with 1’s and 0’s, what’s the model number ? Do you have a mobile phone with an infrared led function as there is an app where you can use your phone as a remote it’s called (i r blaster)

I see AV Forums has a listing for the Silver Crest 8 in 1 remote so might want to take a look on their site. Enjoy all your vids. Good luck!

Couldn't you have used a sky remote for it. You can get them to work on most TVs .. Baird was the brand name used by Radio Rentals ..

I normally use the code search function. you switch tv on and go through code search until it turns off. you might need to Google the remote instructions on button procedure. It's normally set/search code and press power then channel up until tv switches off. however they are all different those remotes.

Every TV repair man needs a Logitech Harmony remote, these have a massive database of remotes online, but they were expensive new and are no longer sold (but still supported). I have a number of these remotes in slightly rough cosmetic shape but working. If you send me your address I'll chuck one in the post for you. As for this remote, either do a search scan as another commenter has posted, or maybe check Sharp, as they are of course the highest-profile company using UMC (the Poland factory was originally Sharp and is now back to being owned by them). Putting UMC LED22 into the Logitech database it comes back with Technika so maybe worth checking your manual for that as well. Also, UMC use Shenzhen MTC for their main boards. Other companies, notably Haier (a very common OEM of small TVs which are commonly mistaken for UMC as they're so similar inside), Cello, and JVC in the US also use the same supplier so again might be ones to check. This set definitely looks like it's MTC, you can tell from the on-screen displays (and the cluster of buttons on the top was a feature common to MTC-based TVs in the early 2010s!).

I really enjoy your channel as I have repaired TV’s since high school I “repaired” a Samsung two days ago using your video as a guide, the set had the dreaded 2 blink code and I put a piece of paper under the ribbon cable and restored the pix and it worked Very well, saved another set from the bin and the owner was thrilled Thanks to you I was able to know where the paper went.

Try this Allen . Manually turn on your TV, put the remote into auto scan or learn mode keep it pointed at the TV until the TV switch is off and then press the ok key straight away for the remote to learn that in. That universal remotes are always a challenge I have three of them here cost $12 Australian

Im so happy you addressed the sound. Thank you! Shame you couldnt fix this telly tho. 😔

I've got a 47" version of this on my bench at the moment with the same issue. Tracking down the firmware to program the new IC is driving me around the twist! Any suggestions? Cheers

I always took the piss out of people with ALBA TVs & stereos back in the 80s and 90s lol

Samsung are the worst tv to own

Where is a set of backlights 8 quid for a set? Anytime I go on ebay they want at least 20 euro per strip.

You won't be fooled Ahgain.

Where is the actual short?

Nice try Allen I have 3 of them here same issues, such a shame Samsung have ruined their name yet again 😊

I do have in interest in electronics, have done since I was young. I picked up a free Samsung LE32R88BD TV, the owner said it does work if left alone long enough. I tried it at home and there was a loud crackling noise like arcing. I got in to it could see nothing blown so googled it and the prime problem was the caps under the shield on the main board. Sure enough once I'd removed the shield (took some doing), I saw dark crystal coating on the shield directly above the capacitors SMC ones. So I ordered some and replaced all of them under the shield. And it works perfectly. Currently being used as a large monitor for game play. I actually ripped a trace removing one cap so had to fix that with a strand from solder Braide.
