While watching tv ; the screen goes black, (like when you power it off) sometimes it a couple hours, others it's a few minutes. the screen goes blank, but still have audio.
The back light inveterate board and CCFL lamps should be checked. Check and replace the faulty component. Back light inverter can only be replaced as card basis.

You have a Ysus problem. Sounds like a cold solder joint or loss connections on ysus main board.

hi....Your tv picture is managed by several boards, the two specific ones are the ysus and the xsus. The Y controlls the horizontal pixelation and the X the verticle, if you are having horizontal problems then its the Ysus thats faulty, on this particular set, the Ysus board has two accompaning buffers that are particularly troublesome. I've had more than one of these sets in the shop recently with the same ailment.Sounds like your buffers are starting to go out. The screen is split horizontally by the two long skinny buffers attatched to the Y main, if the bottom one has one leg in the grave you'll be getting a partially black screen or no picture at all. The colored lines running through the screen are more typical of a failing buffer. Are you interested in taking this set apart and putting a couple hundred into fixing it? When buffers go they usually take the Y main too. Worse case scenario you're gonna be out about $350 dollars to fix it yourself. Best case, a ribbon is loose on the bottom buffer and with a dismantle you'll be able to connect it again..
thank u rate me!!
