Is there any way to power the backlight on an lcd tv without changing caps. POLAROID (HEMROID) TDA-03211C

I HAVE CHANGED THE CAPS. AND STILL NOTHING. I HAVE SOUND BUT NO PICTURE. SO JUST SEEING IF IT COULD BE A BACK LIGHT ISSUE. BUT ANY AND ALL INPUT WELCOME.

    BEFORE I CHANGED THE CAPS. IT WOULD SHOW THE POLAROID LOGO. FLASH THREE TIMES. THEN BLACK SCREEN WITH SOUND. I CHANGED THE CAPS TO NICHION CAPS. AND NOW THE SCREEN WILL NOT COM ON. THE POWER LIGHT FROM RED TO BLUE DOES. AND THE EVER ANNOYING BLINKING RED ONE, IN THE BACK.

Double check your soldering and make sure caps went in correctly + and - wise.

If you found bad caps and replaced them your problem is likely on that board and another part or parts there are also bad.

SOURCE: screen black. polaroid tv 32". have sound TV/DVD Combo TDA-03211C

sounds like inverter board. What it sounds like is happing is your LCD is working ut the backligkt board that allows you to see is kicking off. (as you still have sound) Which could be the (most likely) inverter board, or the power supply board. You can take apart and check for voltage at your power supply. The power supply has a pigtail with large white wires and a connector. Power up with the center back cover off and check your voltage at the white connector on the power supply before and after the screen gos out. If there is no large voltage loss it is your inverter board.

You can used boards on e-bay or

SOURCE: no Picture only sound polaroid tv tdx 03211c

There are two places to look for the problems, the backlight inverter board and the power supply. Look at the power supply first since it is easier to get to, look for burnt parts, bad capacitors, etc.

Panasonic 36" tv model TDA 03211c

Fault at its main digital board. Short circuited component/s at it. Contact any service technician; or the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

Polaroid tdx 03211c no signal problem?

Check for loose contacts in power outlet, RC cable, jack and socket. Change input device to some other like a DVD player. Switch off TV, switch off power, remove plug and wait for 48 hours and retry. If problem persists, call in a qualified service technician.

Vidio blacks out quickly after turn on TDA 03211c.

10V 450uf cap in high Voltage section... replace both not just the one. Caps tend to dry out and cause short on nearby regulator if left go too long. Do not continue to run the TV without replacing the caps first that are leaky. They are the Larger of all Electrolytics on high voltage board and manuf is Sanyo Brown with silver stripe. Typically the bottom of the two caps goes first.

LCD screen part number for Polaroid tda-03211c

Replacing the LCD panel in any TV is not a cost efficient choice for the average person. The cost of the LCD panel is usually as much or more than the TV is worth, often times costing as much as a brand new TV. Considering the poor reputation for service that Polaroid had before it went bankrupt, it is best you consider another option since the screen is only one part of what makes the TV. Even if you were to replace the screen, you still would have a TV that was out of warranty without any service support if another part fails.
