|    Seiki SC-40FK700N with Dim Top Screen    |
|    16 Nov 22 17:25:07    |
      From: bpr@post.com              I have a Seiki SC-40FK700N TV with what appears to me to be dim       backlighting along the top 1/3 of the screen. The lower portion of the       screen appears as normal, but about 2 weeks ago the top suddenly went       dim; it's still readable, but dim.              I don't know how many LED strips this TV has. I would appreciate any       troubleshooting suggestions such as what nominal voltages I should see       where. If it does turn out to be a bad LED strip, should they all be       replaced while I'm in there?              While I do have plenty of experience dismantling, repairing and       assembling medical devices and computers, I have never worked on a LED       TV. After watching some backlight repair videos, it looks rather       straight forward.              I think that I can find LED strips for ~$15/ea or so, so it may worth       fixing this set. Thanks for any help.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
