Westinghouse 39" TV Repair Can't Post

Hi all,

I've been wrestling with this one for the past few weeks and decided to post here before deciding to give up.

Model: Westinghouse EW39T6MZ 39" LED TV

Symptoms: The screen goes to black. When I turn on the power, the Westinghouse logo displays for one second, then fades away. Additionally, the red light that indicates power turns off after a little bit

What I've Tried: I replaced the board in the back with a new one from ShopJimmy and the same thing happened. I also tried a new AC Adapter - didn't work either

Question: I know there are multiple ways to diagnose what the issue is with the TV to try and isolate the issue. But, the back of the TV only has ONE board and I've already tried replacing that one, which didn't fix the issue. Since there is only one board, is there anything else I can try to do to fix this thing before just buying a new one? Here is a link to the board that I replaced: http://www.shopjimmy.com/westinghouse-b12073053-main-board-for-ew39t6mz.htm



Thanks for any help!

You'll need to disassemble the panel and insulate where the ribbon cable for LED drive is being pinched.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

I'm not too advanced on technical TV stuff - when you say disassemble the panel, you mean I have to get into the space in between that silver wall in the picture and the TV screen? And you're guessing that there is some cable that is being pinched in there?

this model has an issue with faulty LEDS ..that could be the issue

led tv technology is a failed design

they go bad way more often than the ccfl style
