Re: Samsung un58tu7000fxza - Power cycles with no picture, only backlight
Well, after trying to block some of the lines in different places with electrical tape I had no success. It was then that I noticed that the far left (as looking from the back) ribbon tape from the panel board to the panel was torn. It apparently happened while trying to remove the screw less back. Ironically I read a post somewhere that suggested cutting one or two of the traces at a time at that connection to bypass possible bad components on that side. I'm guessing this would do the same as the tape method. The backlights stay on now and I have sound but no picture. Can the ribbons going to the panel be repaired or is the tv toast. Not sure what to do next.
