I have a samsung UN55J6201AFXZC LED Tv I purchased 2 years ago. The picture is no longer working properly. When I turn the tv on, there is a faint grey picture in direct sunlight. I've attampted un plugging for an entire night and re plugging the next morning. I've attempted a software update and a picture reset. None of these have fixed the problem. I've also tried re-booting the tv and that didnt work. I tried Samsung chat for them to diagnose the problem, but they just said I need a technician. Ever since dealing with Samsung, in unable to see any faint picture on the screen, just black but it is on. From everything I've read it sounds like I need a new backlight inverter. Are you able to confirm if this is the part I need?

This is the most common issue on dim/black LED TV's. One cannot confirm 100% online but it is the most common cause. I would google inverter and your brand for a You Tube Video. If you can still hear sound it is 80-90% likely the inverter board. you can usually find them pretty cheap on Ebay or Amazon. I often pick up free Tv's with broken screens and sell the working boards on there myself.

SOURCE: no picutre just black-loud pop when I turned it on

You may have blown parts, look inside and inspect the power supply module and the back light inverter board, I will leave the TV unplugged.

SOURCE: My Samsung LED Series 6 TV does not have picture but does have sound. Thanks.

It could be your mainboard. How long did you have the TV?

SOURCE: I have a Samsung 60" LED TV. Everything work except I have no picture. I have sound and a backlight on the screen. I can change sources but do not see any images. I think that the T-CON board is bad.

You only have 3 modules in the back of that unit, the wifi and the sound master board and the video board. Samsung knows they have a issue with some, there is a diagnostic mode that will help you to determine, I would contact tech support before I bought a 350.00 module just to confirm, however I think your on the right track

Blinking red led light when I plug in the tv then it turns right

Phillips purchases the main circuit board from Samsung, and it has a problem with capacitors failing. The failed capacitors can be easily identified as the top will no longer be flat, but will have bulged up.
If you have a local TV repair shop they can help you.
