How to Fix Common Issues

Burn-in

Run pixel refresh (Settings > Picture > OLED Panel). Burn-in is permanent - prevention is key. Vary content.

HDMI issues

Test each port. The HDMI board may need replacement. Check for bent pins. Try a different cable first.

Power board

If the TV does not power on, test the power board. Bulging capacitors indicate failure. Replace the power board if outputs are missing.

Repair Steps

1

Unplug and Discharge

Unplug the TV and wait 24 hours. OLED panels hold charge - never work on them while powered.

2

Remove Back Cover

Lay the TV face-down on a soft blanket. Remove the screws from the back. Lift the rear panel.

3

Burn-in Note

OLED burn-in is permanent. Run pixel refresh (Settings > Picture > OLED Panel) as prevention. For severe burn-in, the panel must be replaced - this is expensive and complex.

HDMI Board

HDMI issues may be the main board. Test each port. The HDMI board can sometimes be replaced separately. Check for bent pins in the ports.

Power Board

If the TV does not turn on, test the power board. Check for bulging capacitors. The power board outputs multiple voltages - use a multimeter.

6

Reassemble

Replace the back cover. Ensure all ribbon cables are seated.

Test

Power on. Run a pixel refresh if you had image retention. Test all HDMI inputs.
