  • Found this LG 42LN5300 in the dumpster, so i thought i would fix it up and share my progress and success in replacing the LED Strips. Tv works great and is super bright.
    Be sure to keep the light level at the lowest comfortable level, don't have it on full brightness unless you really need to - this will extend the life of the LEDs.
    Same process for most LED TV's as well.

    Thank you so much for the video!
    For anyone watching... be careful! I didn't put the actual LED panel back on smoothly and cracked it. The backlights work great now LOL

    This is great! I have an LG UJ635 and the screen had a blue tint that kept getting worse. I just replaced the backlight using this video as a guide and my TV looks brand new again. Not only is the blue tint gone, the brightness and contrast has improved greatly.

    I had a similar TV only 47 inch. just soldered across the bad LEDs to get it back running. But looking at getting the proper backlights strips now to improve the picture quality. I would have never noticed that the strips on the left were of different length until you said it. Thanks for that.

I reckon I'll dive into it and be checking the LED strips now ... side note: I had to walk 3/4 mile with my two-wheel dolly, then walk back that same 3/4 miles WITH the TV strapped to the dolly to get the TV ... arms are still sore this morning ...

    You are "Dan the TV Man".
    Say, did you ever get that black and white TV with scratches like someone was playing Tic Tac Toe back? Way back in 1974, Guys Groovy Grab Bag stole it from your store, then sold it to Grady Wilson for $50 then stole it back and sold it to Fred Sanford (for $50) then Fred tried to sell it to Julio (also for $50). Then Hoppy and Smitty (LAPD) came and took it from Fred and they were supposed to bring it back to you.
    Just wondering how all that worked out. 😂
