The TV initially had a steady (not flashing) red standby light but did not turn on when power button was pressed. I tried all the usual “fixes” but nothing worked. TV would not turn on. After researching the issue, I concluded the cause was a bad EEPROM chip. I ordered the appropriate chip from ShopJimmy:

I took off the old chip using my hot air station and soldered on the new chip. I tested and made sure all the legs have continuity to the pads. When I turned on the TV, the screen lit up and seemed to be fine. However, all of the menus are missing the text. I can navigate the menus but the menu choices are invisible.
What could be wrong and how can I fix this? Did ShopJimmy send me the wrong EEPROM?
