20 Most Recent Hitachi 26LD6600 26 in. HD-Ready LCD Television Questions & Answers

It sounds like the tuner demodulator has failed. Many times I have found that it is cheaper to buy an external hi-def tuner than repair the one that is in the set. The fact that the tuner is finding channels but not displaying them is a good sign that the demodulator has failed. In one case I had with Sony rear projector, it would have been $800 to repair the internal hi-def tuner and the customer can buy an external tuner for $100-$200. Sorry if this is not the answer you wanted; if you fel this si a good response to your question, please be sure to rate me,. Thanks!

If you live here in the Philippines, visit CDRKing they have wall mount gadgets. or try on Ebay for any other option of wall mounted bracket.

could be 1 of two things - tcon board or av board. I'd check th etcon board first though. I just replaced a tcon board that caused the screen to look like a picture negative.

Thanks,

Hi i have this tv and last night the screen went black i can hear sound ok but no picture just a black screen, Also i can see dark

Replace the power supply board .Encompass Parts 1-800-638-3328

First thing to do is measure the output voltages of the power board. You're looking for the one that provides standby power, usually +5V or +3.4 V and in some rare cases other voltages.

Don't know what it is for your TV, but it will sure be available on the power board if you see the red LED there.

Next you look to see if upon pressing power the main board signals to the power board to turn itself fully on, i.e. start generating the rest of the supply voltages.

There's a pin on the power board's connectors that is labelled "PS_ON" or just "ON" or something similar.

It should raise to +3V or so when you press the ON button.

For an example of a simple power board see this:

If you do not receive that signal then the problem is in the main board.
if you receive that signal, but the power board does not generate the additional voltages that it outputs to the other boards then the problem is in there.
And if it wakes up and provides those voltages but the TV is still dead then the problem is in the main board, which usually needs to be replaced.

Hope this helps. If it does do not forget to rate it :-)

Change the cables, not the box.

Something has failed. Take to a reputable repair person or check my website www.micromendllc.com

Hi, without a manual to hand, i don't know, but my Panasonic had the same problem, but I found somewhere in the settings, I could change it, it has something to do with AV and Digital TV and hdmi setup, give it a check.

I hope this helps to some degree, but give us a shout if you require more help.

hi sir,,
there are only three things to check which causes these problems...

first check whether the cathode ray tube is ok or not
second whether the fuse is damaged
third is the colour wheel,,,
if these are not defnility the circuit problem,,,diodes capacitors

thank u,,,,,

You have to switch the Television to the correct input line. This can be done by pressing an Input, or AV of function button on the television remote control.

Replace the Z Sustainer Board, Part # 6871QZH044B and replace the Y Sustainter Board, Part # 6871QYH039B at the same time. If you replace one and not the other the bad one will end up shorting the good one and you’ll lose your picture within a week. You can do this work yourself by unplugging the unit and placing it face down on carpet (put down a soft blanket to protect the screen) and unscrewing the back of the unit (a power screw driver works great for this job because there are a few screws involved). The cheapest place to buy these two parts are: www.discount-merchant.com , or www.avextra.net, or www.ebay.com

You most likely have a bad lcd panel drive board.We have seen on occasion the cable between the panel(top side) and the main circut board has come un-plugged.Hope this helps.

Turn off the dynamic picture adjustment.

The Hitachi's native resolution is 1024x768. It won't properly display above these resolutions via VGA. You might have more luck via HDMI but I doubt it.

That sounds like it is not booting properly. I would check for correct power supply opperation and if not that, look for a software reloading procedure in the user instruction manual.
