Sony kdl-52w4100 T-con board problems

Since few days by switching on the TV I have some shadows (double text) on the screen. After one or 2 minutes it disappear and the picture is perfect again. It seems that the T-con board could be the source of the problem. My question are : 1) where is the T-con board located ? 2) do I need special instructions or tools to open the back cover ? Thanks MK

    Hi Gopakumar,

    I did read your blog regarding the T-con board in general.
    It confirm that I'm looking in the right direction.
    It my be the contacts on the flat cable ribbon connectors.
    However You mentioned that you have the service manual in PDF format available.I would very appreciate if you could email it to me : [email protected].

    Thanks

To explain all about your problem post sill take so much time to type in all. More over, I cant insert any PDF files by this window, to show you the position of T'Con board inside your TV. Just visit this site. It is my blog. Purely meant to help to repair electronic equipments. electrohelp online.blogspot is the site address. Visit it. Google for it. To know you more, I've the service manual to your set in PDF format. Just visit this site first. You can get more details by it; about waht a T'Con board. what tools do you want to replace it. How can it be replaced and so on.
If that site do not help you, contact me. OK?

SOURCE: I have a Sony KDL 46XBR4 LCD TV. Perfect sound but

You probably have a bad LCD Panel. It is a common failure. If the unit is out of warranty, call Sony at 1800-222-SONY and see if they could help with the cost of repair. They would require a Service facility to evaluate it to be sure it is the Panel.
Hope this helps,

SOURCE: Sony XBR4 - 46 inch Double Imaging and 1/2 screen dark

Sorry not a solution...We also have exact same problem (TV about 1.5 years old) - out of warranty - all Sony told me to try was to un-plug TV for 2 minutes - useless. I am trying to decide if I should bring to service store to try to fix. I hate to spend a couple of hundred dollars to find out it costs $2000 - less then a new one. Anyone have any suggestions?

SOURCE: WHERE CAN I BUY A SONY T-CON BOARD PART NUMBER

The part # you gave is the Control Board which sells for $668.79. The T-Con board your looking for is part of the LCD Display Panel and is not sold separately. I suggest you start by cleaning the ribbon cables from the control board to the t-con board. If that doesn't help then you had better take it in to a service center to verify which part is bad because there are no refunds, only replacement after you buy a board.
