They dont want that, they want us to buy new ones....TVs lasting 15 years in the past killed their bottom lines lol.... it is tough on the smaller ones but im sure you found out the big screens are even tougher, they are so fragile replacing the LEDs can often lead to cracking them...you need a large well laid out area and be very very careful and CRACK they still can break lol. Then on top of it all they change up the led strips with almost every model.

@@timb7328 I agree, I won't do LED replacement in sets made by UMC because the nuggets have a habit of putting a bead of glue along the top edge of the screen. It's like they did it for a laugh. I have been a TV service engineer for 41years and I really miss CRT TV repair.

They don't design TVs with repair in mind. They design them with ease of manufacture and cost saving in mind.

I completely wrecked my LCD panel. Not totally sure how I did it. I solved the blue light but have made it unwatchable. Can't seem to purchase new panel anywhere.

@@bluehair1919 were you able to buy new panel? I replaced the led strips and they seemed OK but when adding lcd panel back I applied to much pressure to a corner and cracked it. Fixed blue picture but now have crack and lines on TV :(

I thought it was only me. The panel at the back looks like a murder scene. Otherwise fixed

And what kind of backlights I must buy??? There are too many kinds. Can you send me link for LG 43UJ630V??? Thanks

@@Horacepetr you just need to type in the exact model and google shopping backlight, they are usually sold from china

I'm scared to fix my 55", its so much bigger than the 43" in this video. I feel confident enough to do everything right but the sheer size of the TV makes me anxious. How long did it take you?

@@m.s.6519 maybe 20 minutes super easy mate you’ll be right :)

@@1400r that's awesome, thank you for your encouragement! I really like to fix things to make them last longer, would be too bad throwing away a TV that used to be this expensive.

Honestly. I bought mine new in like 2018, and it was dimming/turning blue after a year or so. They're 500ish now but back then it was 1300

Mine also after 3 years the screen turn blue.

@@OpahCECS Every so often I still run into TVs from that year that are turning blue...they just werent used as much as the others so it took longer.....That failure rate is ridiculous (I bet around 80%). LG should have to send out checks to anyone that can prove they bought one of their TVs from that model year!!

Il mio 55 pollici stessa cosa dopo 3 anni non acquisterò più marchi LG per tutta la mia vita.

A parte questo video cosa vuol fare vedere? Non spiega nulla e non fa vedere nulla video negativissimo per me pollice verso .

Do you have a link to the tape he uses. The guy is good, but doesn't talk/explain much?

Thanks for this important tip! Was trying to pull so hard and I couldn’t. Glad I didn’t damage it! For anyone wondering, it’s this part here @2:33

Καλημέρα σας!τα ανταλλακτικά από που τα πήρατε γιατί χρειάζομαι και εγώ.

@@user-ct9ps7kw7r καλημέρα σας! Τα ανταλλακτικά τα αγόρασε ο θείος μου απο το ίντερνετ από την Πολωνία, αλλά δεν γνωρίζω την τη διεύθυνση να σας πω..μου είπε ότι τα πήρε από εκεί γιατί είναι πολύ πιο φτηνά. Τα βρήκε 20€, ενώ εδώ στην Ελλάδα θα τα αγόραζε 70€τουλάχιστον!! Απλά κάνει καμία 10ρια μέρες να φτάσει!

Thanks 👍

Thanks! 👍

doesnt really matter that much, but thinner the better. I use 3m double sided tape about 2mm thick.

@@oneeyedrone4293 I believe he was referring to the width of the tape not the length? Not sure what size to get too, but might go for the 10mm.

@@ahmdo8485 lol ya but he asked about the thickness of the tape. Width wise, even if the thermal tape is a bit wider it won’t make a difference. It all gets covered by the white diffuser.

When I got my LED backlight from Ali Express it already had tape fitted so I didn't need to use any other tape, but if you need some it's 12 mm wide

did you find where to buy those led strip?

@@ilanshoko Aliexpress

I need to write my disappointing end result. I ordered LED strips from Aliexpress. Came in 3 weeks. The led spacing and diameter was different, amount was same. I had to cut new holes to the bottom white "paper". Everything else went ok. Upon assembly I noticed that I had cracked the corner of the LCD few centimeters. Once assembled - nothing. Red led at bottom turns on and flashes some code, but nothing on screen. I tried to go back and check LED connection but screen cracked even more. I don't know where I made the mistake. Maybe I damaged the panel cables when removing them or maybe all 3 strips were broken (hard to believe). Advice for others: Be extra careful with the panel. Prepare soft place were you will put it during backlight replacement. Extra pair of hands would be good. Even 43" is pretty flexible. Bigger size panel management would be horrible.

Same problem as this. Type your model number in on google and you’ll find a set on eBay.

Better if you have tape if not try to use insulation tape on top of the strip

Hi i re-disassembled the tv and plugged in the cable back and turned on the power switch, but the lights weren't coming on :(

aliexpres type model number of your tv and get cheapest

Thin blade, Im using knife from time to time

the red flashing light means that the tv doesnt support dhe led strips that you bought make sure to buy the same one as the one that it had

@@muhamedtrimi7820 Thanks for your reply. I didn’t get a notification for your message. I still have the TV as have put it to the side to have a look at another time. I will re-evaluate the LED Situation again and ensure that I did buy the correct lights. They looked the same as the ones that were removed. They had the same quantities of LEDs and the alignment holes were in the same positions along with the plugs being the same too, so I don’t know. I’ll have another look sometime. Thanks again.

@@cosmiclink661 if that’s the case, i think the polarity of the lights that you bought isnt the same with the tv, even if you see that the + ans - are in the same place as the tv ones its a big chance they are inversed

@@cosmiclink661 keep us updated of what happens on your TV please

Be careful taking the frame off that holds the screen/filters etc. I broke a few clips off cause it was so tight but other than that it was smooth sailing. Follow the video step by step.

He basically just did. Just do this. Only when you reassemble put the new screen in where the old one was 😂

Sorry don't have mesurements, model number of your tv should be enaugh.

@@WeFixTvs ty very much. 👍

Hello, yes Weller is for more heavy jobs, its my first professional soldering station it does great job in past and tips super cheap, now Im using JBC its expensive and tips extremely expensive for more precision jobs.

Hello. I also used a Weller soldering station for my work, type WSP 80. I have also been using a JBC soldering station for about 7 years. Very good, I like it. You can quickly change tips while soldering. It's great that it switches off in sleep mode when I'm not using it. This protects the soldering tip. After that, it reaches the set temperature very quickly. A knife type tip is very good in most cases. It's not cheap, but it's worth the price. In Hungary, JBC stations are also used in the Samsung television factory. I repair televisions.

We buying them on AliExpress. Don’t know if available on Amazon

@@WeFixTvs i have the same model how can i search for it in ali express? (serial number/name? ) . Thanks

If you go to Ali express and put in your model number, you should be able to find a backlight to match. I just got mine yesterday and put them in, my TV works well now. I tried to post a link before but apparently can't do that here...

That’s not a magnet lol. It’s a sucker you DONKEY!!

did you find where to buy?
