The backlights aren't working on my Samsung UN32ES6500FXZA TV. I performed the flashlight test and can see a picture and the audio works. Can you please let me know what part needs to be replaced?

The backlights do work when the main board is disconnected from the power supply board. Is there an LED driver on this TV? I'm thinking that might be the problem, but I can't seem to find a part number anywhere.

You have at least one shorted LED in the panel, reason it works with the main disconnected is your removing shutdown circuitry, don't run it this way for any longer than necessary when looking for the faulty lamps..Also be really gentle with the panel and flat cables going to the TCON board, they can be damaged quite easily and if that happens the set is junk..good luck!!

SOURCE: 47' (sic) LED TV, model number m470vse. Why doesn't the backlight work?

In some models of LCD TVS; the backlight inverter and its T'Con board will be a part of the panel itself, and will be a built-in type inside the LCD panel. If so, they can't be replaced. In this case; a panel replacement is the only repair. For some other models, the backlight inverter section circuit will be a part of the main power supply regulator [SMPS]. To such sets, the power supply section circuit too should trouble shoot. Contact any service technician. The circuit will differ with models and versions.

SOURCE: Model 42LN5700. What caused backlight failure?

Backlights do fail, and can be replaced. If the set is more than 5 years old, it could simply be backlight failure.

Problem with Samsung led tv with no sound or picture.

The first things to try are of course the simplest. If you have a picture on your TV but no sound, the problem might be as simple as having the “Mute” button the remote having been accidentally pressed. Grab your remote and unmute the TV by pressing the “Mute” button again.
Next, check what the input setting is on your Samsung TV by hitting “Source” on the remote and cycling through the available inputs. If your Samsung TV’s source is set to a component that you don’t have set up, then there won’t be any audio data coming in to be played.
Do you ever use a headset on your TV? Gamers, in particular, might be using a wired set of headphones plugged into an audio out jack, and if the headphones are plugged in, then any audio is being routed to that equipment, and you might not hear the sound playing if you aren’t wearing the headset. Assuming you never use a headset on your TV, check the headset port for any debris. Your TV may pick up something in the port which won’t allow the audio to route properly.
Finally if this does not work,you can try the old school way...unplug the your TV for about an minute.

I have a Samsung TV, Model un60h6203af that shows no picture but audio works. Need help to determine what is wrong in order to replace it.

Hi Dany, the problem on your Samsung TV is in the back lighting, one or more LEDs are burned, this makes the rest of the LEDs not work
To correctly repair the problem, you must replace all of the LEDs
I hope you can solve your TV problem
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Dany, el problema en tu TV Samsung esta en la iluminacion trasera, uno o mas LEDs se encuentran quemados, esto hace que el resto de los LEDs no funcionen
Para reparar correctamente el problema, debes reemplazar la totalidad de los LEDs
Espero puedas resolver el problema de tu TV

TV has sound but no picture

The Audio and Video are two separate components and operate independently of each other. Therefore: The Video portion requires technical repair by a technician with the proper test equipment.

Samsung LCD TV no backlight

Test the power supply board to see if all the voltages are present and within 10% tolerance. Use a voltmeter to verify.
