I'm so glad you found this to be a good tutorial. The reason you gave is exactly why I made it. No video I found attempted to make things clear and easy to follow, so I wanted to do that. I appreciate your comment.

I got my TV at the same time you did and this is happening right now 😂😂

@@VashtiPerry i hope this tutorial helps. Saved me so much money and a mean tongue lashing from the old gal.

Thank you!! This video just saved me about $400. Money I don't really have to spare. I appreciate you.

@@sansker423 You are very welcome. Someone helped me with this once and now I'm returning the favor.

You are very welcome. Someone helped me fix mine and now I am just passing that knowledge on. One good turn deserves another as they say.

Got you, thanks again. I couldn't find the exact capacitor, so I used 400v instead. So far so good.

Makes my day to know I helped. Hope it lasts for many more years. Mines still holding strong since I replaced my caps.

Awesome! So glad this has been helpful to you. I wanted it to be simple, easy to follow, and fully instructional so no one was left without a visual aid to guide them in the process. I hate it when others skip steps assuming everyone already knows certain parts of the process. Truth is most people don't know any of the steps of the process and need a fully visual guide to get them through. So reading your comment has made me feel like I succeeded. Thank you

@@EDFCentralYou definitely succeeded. As a complete novice, I feel fully confident in repairing my TV the 27th, when the capacitors arrive. Thank you, again! ❤❤

⁠@@EDFCentralI do have a question, I am having trouble finding the EXACT volt capacitor, everyone seems sold out at the moment for my country. So, for a 350v 10uf, would a 400v 10uf work??

@@EDFCentralI didn’t end up getting the 400 but still couldn’t find the 350, so I went ahead and ordered a motherboard, instead. It was $25 and went in very quickly. It fixed my tv and it hasn’t skipped a beat. However, I’m going to grab two 350’s when I can find them and fix the old motherboard, that way I’ll have a back up. Thanks again!!! ❤

You are very welcome. So glad it worked for you. Mine is still working great after the repair as well.

Thats awesome to hear! Glad you were able to get everything up and running again.

My friend I understand about the eye issues. I'm now almost 45 and my up close vision has gone the way of the dodo. If it wasn't for those magnifying glasses I showed in the video I would not be able to do any soldering. I wear 2.0 readers just to see the back of a medicine bottle (or I snag on of the kids, whoever is closer lol).

@@EDFCentral I totally understand the issue. I've been suffering from retinitis pigmentosa for many years. As a result, I have tunnel vision and many blind spots throughout my field of vision. Currently, I'm down to 15% total. I wish I had the option of using magnifiers to compensate. Fortunately, I am a fully tenured professor of exercise physiology and biomechanics at a major university. Thus, my vision really isn't an issue. However, when it comes to things like this it is very frustrating. Anyway, I'm going to remove the motherboard and get somebody else to do the work. I appreciate the information.

Thats awesome! So glad your TV is working again.

Glad to hear it!

You're very welcome

Thank you. Hopefully you can fix it and have a back up tv.

You are very welcome! Glad it helped you.

You are very welcome

Yes, seems that they are using cheap caps in these TV's and its ridiculous. Something as inexpensive as caps and they have to go with the cheapest option. They could really make a good name for themselves if they would up the quality of the caps. The TV's are great except for the cheap caps.

Awesome! Glad you were able to get your TV fixed. Someone taught me how to do it, so I wanted to provide a clear and easy to understand instructional video with the steps displayed and not just discussed. I wanted others to see what was going on and how to fix it without guess work. Your response shows me that I succeeded at that.

Awesome! Glad to hear it!

Hope you were able to fix your TV.

Glad it helped!

22 bucks is a great deal and less hassle. I didn't even know I could buy a new board at the time I did this video.

@@EDFCentral I hadn't known before with other tvs. But few places sell the boards instead of repairing the tv with a broken screen from shipping or warranties. Most of the time the board doesn't get damaged.

Where did you get the new board from ?

Lmk

@@TheYoungE40 I got mine on ebay. Can't seem to find it anywhere else unless I wanted to pay over $100. Just have to make sure the board matches your model and board you have now.

Thank you. I'm glad I learned how to solder. If anyone's interested there are numerous videos on KZfaq that will teach you the basics.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

Had one guy put the caps in upside down. Could be that or another issue. I'm not sure what else it could be. Hopefully you can get it resolved. Sorry I can't offer more help.

Thats great to hear!

You are very welcome

From my understanding they are using cheap capacitors thus only buying you several thousand hours of usage as opposed to 10s of thousands of hours of usage.

I researched it and saw a video that showed me what the issue was. However, the video didn't show you how to fix it and what you would need to do so. So here you go a step by step tutorial on what to do.

If you are getting the blinking red light and the screen turning on and off then it should definitely be those capacitors. Even if the capacitors don't look bulged out they may still be bad. I recommend replacing them or if you are still in warranty just replace the TV through your warranty.

@@EDFCentral It just the blinking red, the screen remains black. Does it change anything?

@@EDFCentral Should I use a multimeter to check if electricity comes out?

If the TV is flashing on and off. Going to the Hisense logo then off again and then on again. That would be the capacitors have gone bad.

Try turning up the temp on the iron. Try 400 degrees

Man I wish I knew, but I have no knowledge of that model. My suggestion then is to look at all the capacitors and look for two things. 1. Check for any that are bulging at the end like I showed in the video. 2. Check and see if you can find where any fluid has come out. When mine ruptured it sprayed fluid on the black plastic panel covering the motherboard. It made it super easy for me to figure out which capacitors had blown. The fluid will be dry by this point, but it will still show where it hit and ran down. Other than that I'm not sure what else to do. Truly sorry you're going through this as well. Apparently this has been happening to a lot of people. Since I made this video and replaced mine my TV has worked without a hitch. I'm guessing Hisense got a deal on cheap capacitors.

@@EDFCentral Yeah the negative reviews are off the rails now on hisense in general. Not a fraction of a hint of any splatter or splatter remnants on the case back and all caps look clean, perfect and straight. I wish I had actually followed my idea of electronics back years ago but we were moving into the good economy and throw away society mode where people could buy another TV cheaper than send it to a shop or buy a new mower rather than visit a small engine mechanic. I used to fix electronics as a kid by some natural skill but as they moved into modules in TV's and such. I worked in a zenith shop at 16 when they were switching to modules and the guy I worked for couldn't fix stuff for double the cost of modules so I never started learning even before the throw away society started. I can almost see the writing on the wall, these kind of shops may be coming back with the economy going the way it is but i am far too old for that now. It would still be a nice hobby. :) appreciate the input. Wish I could post pics. Maybe there should be a hisense repair reddit, people could share fixit pics and comments rather than keep buying more hisense chineseum, keep some money here....

You are very welcome and thank you for the compliment. Ive never done this on a 65 inch, but I would think the same rules apply. Just look for blown caps and replace those.

Honestly I have no idea about that. Wish I did.

Could very well be, my TV did the exact same thing and it was the caps that had gone bad.

Awesome! Glad it worked.

Thank you

Yeah, apparently those caps only have so many hours on them before they stop functioning. I've also learned that not all caps are created equal. So quality caps get you more hours.

I'm not sure, but it definitely sounds exactly like a cap problem. It's doing exactly what my 55 inch was doing. If the board looks like mine then try replacing those caps I show in the video.

If you have the same tv as mine then you should have two capacitors

If the light is flashing on and off it is probably the capacitors that need replacing. My light would flash on and off as well repeatedly when my capacitors blew.

I looked to see if they were bulging and the one that ruptured was indeed bulging and had squirted juice all over the back cover. Thats the only thing I did.

I'm honestly not sure, but its worth looking inside to see if you see any leakage or swollen caps.

If you look on the blown capacitor itself, it will show you the model number you need.

Honestly I can't remember. I think I state it in the video. I believe it was between 300 to 400

I didn't have to. All it's doing is fixing the screen so it turns on again. Everything else should remain as is. Mine stayed the same.

@@EDFCentral Hey man just wanted to say thank you! I have ZERO soldering experiencing but gave it a shot and did an “okay” job but it fixed my tv! I appreciate you for showing me how to do this! Thank you!!

@@WillyManchester10 You are very welcome. Someone showed me how and now I want to pass it along.

0:43 is where I tell you what the tv was doing. Thank you for the tip.

Do you have any ideas on what I should do?

@@brenthopkins9030 It could be a batch of bad capacitors. I replaced mine over a year ago and they are still working or could be a worse issue with the TV. You could get online and buy a new motherboard for it for a lot cheaper than a new TV. Really sorry man.

Man, truly sorry for your troubles. Nothing worse than buying new electronics only to have them go kaput in no time. Reminds me of all the Xbox 360 systems I had issues with. Anyway, definitely give the capacitors a check like I demonstrate in this video. However if you aren't getting any power at all it may be a different problem. The problem I cover here still has power running to the TV, but the TV turns itself on and off repeatedly. However its worth your time to just pop the back off and see if you have any noticeably blown capacitors. However from what I'm learning, sometimes they can be blown and not show it like mine did in this video. However if you aren't getting any power at all it could be that your power supply has gone bad and I've never replaced one of those. On another note, double check and make sure the cable that goes into the back of your TV hasn't come lose as that may be the simple solution and hopefully is the problem.

I'm hearing from others that sometimes they don't bulge like mine did, but are still bad.

@@EDFCentral I had a bunch of usb stuff attached to the back of the tv when I turned my stuff on last night it just all failed and then my problem started. I just ordered a bag of them for $8 we’ll see if it works 🤞

@@EDFCentral didn’t work. I changed them but I still hear a high pitch noise coming from the black box next to the capacitors. Still blinking light and black screen. Buying a new one tomorrow

Ky

Glad to hear that

Best wishes! Hope you can get a spare soon.

If your TV turns on, goes to the HISENSE logo screen sits there for a few seconds and then turns off and then back on again repeating itself in a loop it is probably the capacitors. When you take the cover off the back of the TV look at the plastic backing and see if you can tell if any liquid has ran down the back of the plastic backing. You could see liquid from where the capacitor ruptured and squirted out onto the back of the plastic cover. If you see that just try to line it up with where it came from and it will help you to pinpoint if it was a capacitor and which one. On my TV you could see only slightly that the capacitor was raised a bit. It still looked closed, but it was raised just slightly. More than likely that is what your problem is as well.

@@EDFCentral I looked at the capacitors when I cracked it open and they're not bulged, popped or open at all. I was told it still could be that and to replace them anyways. I've got 6 25v 470uf, 3 350 v 10uf, and 2 50v 68uf capacitors. Should I replace all of them? Thx again for the reply and help!

@@elkuko8686 No, don't replace them all. Only replace the 350v 10uf ones first. These are the ones that usually cause the issue. Also sorry for the delayed response. KZfaq didn't tell me you had replyed. It seems to pick and choose when it updates me these days.

@@EDFCentral no worries man I seriously appreciate the reply! I've been waiting on a pack of capacitors but I've got my soldering kit, rosin core solder, Flux just in case, and most of the capacitors. I took out the motherboard and it's sitting just waiting. You saved my ass from removing capacitors unnecessarily lol. Thanks again for that. I'll keep you posted once I replace and try to turn on the t.v. your help has been seriously valuable.

@@elkuko8686 Did replacing the capacitors fix your tv?

This one is beyond me. Apparently it seems your tv is having issues with either the network software or the ethernet port on the TV if you are using that. Go into system settings and make sure you have the latest firmware update.

The cap size is listed in the video. I can't remember it off the top of my head. I think it was 10uf. You can get them off of ebay for like 10 bucks.

The capacitor for my televions was the 350v 10uf. You can get these from Ebay, Amazon or any other place that sells electronic components.

You need to reset your TV. I'll get the reset code for you and be right back

Here's what you need to try. Turn on TV. Get your roku remote and press home 5 times, up one time, rewind button two times and fast forward button two times. Now wait a few minutes while your TV reboots. This should fix the issue.

Thanks buddy about to try that so sense I can see that it do have lights in the tv do that mean the led lights in the inside Good about to try the reset u gave me ill give update hope it work

@@kevinhollingsworth1410 In my opinion, I don't think your screen is the problem. I've had them run updates on the TV that caused it to glitch where all I could hear was sound and no picture or the colors would be messed up. A quick reset of the TV always fixed it. So hopefully that reset fixed yours as well.

@EDFCentral Update ..I did the code u gave me it still black screen maybe 1 off the capacitors went out that wired how the tv faded away until it was black only had tv 2 years hate 2 throw it away

No, you have to get the right type. I give the cap type in the video. Can't remember off top of my head which one it was.

Make sure your new caps aren't burst due to being defective.

Did you make sure of the polarity! Capacitors have a positive side and a negative side. The + side is clearly marked on the board.

In the video I show you what a bad capacitor looks like. The end is usually swollen. The link to what I bought no longer works as I just tried it. But what you want is 10uF 350v capacitors.

Sorry I meant to say is there any other indicators that visual besides the swollen ends like you showed in the video. I'm about to order some capacitors and see what happens.

Treat the capacitors with respect. If they still hold energy they can do some damage on your hands

@@nemesisbreakz Any advice for dealing with them? Besides unplugging the TV and holding the power button for 30 seconds or so?

What is your question?

Yes it does produce a great picture

Sounds like your capacitors are bad and need to be replaced. My tv would turn on, but not go past the introduction of Hisense screen. Replacing the capacitors fixed the problem.

Did you make sure the caps were facing the correct direction with the white strip down?

Should come off as soon as the screws come out. Nothing else should be holding it on.

I have the same problem. There's a clip holding it to the clear bit at the bottom around the power button and I can't get it to release. Did you manage to get it off?

I did not see the end B4 my comment. You did the right thing by doing BOTH !

Definitely check all your capacitors for blown ones.

@@EDFCentral 😭😭

Thanks for that helpful info. I will say that I didn't have any trouble finding the caps using a 'U' when I searched for it. I think sellers are just substituting a 'U' in place of that symbol.

Still sounds like it could be those caps. Worth a shot to replace them. Much cheaper and if it doesn't work you're only out a few bucks and some time.

@@EDFCentral I see some boards on ebay for like $20 bucks,I solder pretty good but seems better to get a board

@@joehiatt1992 Not a bad deal if you don't want to solder. Save you time.

@@EDFCentral Replaced both boards & nothing,I have a LED tester coming tomorrow,someone else here said its the LED's,also ebay boards ur really not sure they are good, they ALL claim they come out of damaged store TV's lol

If your TV is doing what I stated in the video then it should be the caps regardless if they are bulging or not. Can't hurt to replace them if tv is broke already. Worth a shot.

Hope it was helpful.

I think they used cheap capacitors.

The fix I show has kept my TV working great since I made this video. Hopefully it helps you too.

@EDFCentral Thank you! I will try it and I believe it mostly likely is this same problem and we've had this TV over 2 plus years from someone else so I know there is no warranty! 🤦🏾‍♀️❤️

No, I don't have any of those for sale.

@EDFCentral I was just messing around. But I did just pull apart this hisense and both capacitors are blown

Did you make sure the capacitors were turned the right way? Another guy had same issue and realized he put them in upside down.

Haha! When the shoe fits!

Unfortunately this fix requires some work to do. If you can solder you can do it. If you follow the steps you can have it done in an hour and save yourself a couple hundred bucks.

I just bought a second Hisense! I'm a glutton for punishment Haha!

I can understand, especially if it died as quickly as mine did. You shouldn't have to do what I did to fix it. A TV should last for years, but if you do want to fix it and save some money the video is here.

@@EDFCentral Oh I've got 2 I need to put new leds strips in.

Exactly! Shouldn't have to do this only two years in. Things are made so cheap anymore.

Chinese or not, any brand, they all use 8 cent capacitors when they could pay 50 cents per capacitor and NEVER have an issue with them even after 10 years...

@@drbaldtv2447 That simply isn't true. My 2022 Panasonic OLED (a real Panasonic not a rebrand) uses Panasonic and NCC caps, and looking on ebay the recent Sony are using Rubycon. It's probably why Panasonic have died off in this field - better parts equals "uncompetitive" in the modern world order, if your set is $50 more expensive than the next guy for the same spec you lose out. I will grant you that Samsung and LG use Korean caps (for obvious reasons) that still tend to be inferior, but they should still run for longer than two years. To be fair though I don't mind HiSense generally, they are at least cheap for what they are, and you pay your money and take your chances. The company I despise are TPV, who sell under the Philips brand at premium prices, when the truth is they're the usual cheap Chinese stuff but tarted up to seem premium.

@@dodgers9302 Not for sure my friend. Haven't dealt with the 72".

Yeah that doesn't work.
