I have a Panasonic 50inch led tv with a fault were the picture is clear for about 2 seconds and then double image (see photo) for 2 seconds. This repeats indefinitely. Other than that the tv and sound work perfectly. I have tried replacing all four boards t-con, psu, main av and inverter board..but problem persists. Any ideas please?

Hi.

I do not think that a firmware or software update (if available) will make any difference. If the backlight starts and turns off, then it is either inverter, PSU or circuit controlling inverter (located on main controller board). The fact that you replaced the boards does not necessarily mean that everything is OK with newly replaced boards. I repair LCD TVs and I can tell you that the board swapping method is not effective or good with this kind of electronic. This is not a PC, if you replace all boards without testing, then you may get in more troubles than when you had the initial problem.

The T-con board is regulating the timing of signal to LCD. The T-Con board symptoms are in effect no picture and sound still going, but often the backlight does not go completely off, you usually get a faint flickering backlight. Before replacing the T-con, testing should be done reading voltage in the DC line that goes from PSU to inverter. If there is no DC voltage, then the problem is not the TCon. If there is DC voltage in to the inverter, but no high voltage out from the inverter, then the inverter is usually shot. For safety reasons testing with live power should be done by a trained person.

The other way to proceed is swapping TCon board. In this way there is also the chance that LCD panel failed, that is usually beyond repair.

Regards.

Ginko.

SOURCE: I have Toshiba 15

There are a few things that can cause this fault, but the most common is the High Voltage Capacitors that feed the backlights going bad. The invertor and power supply are on the same board (Vestel 17IPS01-2)

The caps are on the power supply board and are C355 & C356 (12pf 3kv) and C354 (4.7pf 3kv). If you replace these caps it will solve the problem in 99% of cases.

If replacing these three caps do not solve the problem then it may be easier to replace the power supply board... as fixing means replacing a tiny surface mount chip with loads of legs.

WARNING: The Power Supply/Invertor board can contain LETHAL VOLTAGES even when turned off and unplugged. if you are not sure, Pay someone to do it for you!

Hlo good mrng i have a led tv devant my problem is the picture is double or double image..

Sorry I can't advise you if the trouble is being caused by technical trouble inside your tv - I just wanted to mention, if you receive your signal via an antenna to be aware it is possible to receive the same signal a second time a small fraction of a second behind the first if it is being reflected from a nearby high building or similar. This condition produces a ghosting effect on the screen behind the main picture.

I have a Magnavox 55" Led Tv it will play about 2 or 3 seconds then the picture messes up for about a second and come back on,keeps going in and out,I replaced the main board but didn't help.

Hi Bill,
this sounds more like a timing fault than a main AV problem, I would suspect a faulty T-Con board to be giving this fault, you could try to catch the fault in an image and post it here someone may have had a similar experience.

Samsung 40" LED TV Display

Not familiar with this particular model of samsung LED TV, but ghosting and shadowing are usually an accepted manufacturer's defect.

If you're still under warranty or within 30 days of purchase, contact the company that sold you the TV or Samsung warranty department.

If you're out of warranty and you don't wish to deal with this, contact a TV repair shop. They will most likely tell you that it's not worth repairing and recommend you purchase a new TV.

My zenith sentry tv has a double image on the words that come on screen. The people are clear but all wording has double images

Hello
Double images are technically called Ghosts, occures due to the setting and direction on the antena. You have to reorient your antena, in such a way that Ghosts disappeares from your screen. The reson for this fault is not with the TV, as it gets a direct transmission signal, and a reflected signal of the same, reflected from near or far objects, like tall buldings, hills and so on. The signals, the orginal and the reflected, will be processed by the TVs internal ciiruit, and the first will appear as strong picture, followed by the second, a weak picture, will be seemed as an image of the first one, just on the right side [view point] of your TV.
You just adjust the position and height of your antena, looking the picture, where there is minimum Ghost level is. No other repair should be done to your TV, as it is perfect, and you just give it only direct signal path. OK.

Taking double photos

check to see if you have the Burst mode button on by mistake. It's to the left on the bottom - dual purpose with 'delete/trash can'. If that's set on and you hold the shutter button for even a second, you'll get 2 pictures or more.
