I got another 52" today, this one is Samsung LN52A530P1FXZA.
I checked the T-CON, cleaned and re-seated the cables, heat/cool T-CON with no luck.
Take the panel apart, the bonding on the right side are bad. I used the Silicone thermal interface pad (http://www.bergquistcompany.com/ther...ls/gap-pad.htm) on all the tabs and also on the T-CON processing IC so its heat is transferred to the metal shield better.
Before I add the pads to the bonding tab, I checked the temperature of the IC on the flexible PCB, they were too hot too touch, the temp is about 155F (same as the 52" SONY I worked on last month).
Hardest part of the repair is to get the assembly off the front bezel by myself and removing the metal frame on the panel.
It has been running for about 2 hours now, so far so good.
