The lack of picture in the THOMSON 46FR3230 is often caused by a malfunction of the display backlight. Moreover, the problem can be both inside the LCD panel (matrix) T460HW03V1, for example, failure of CCFL lamps (EEFL), and outside in their power source - inverter.
Without backlighting, you can sometimes see a faintly visible image with a certain amount of ambient light hitting the screen.
Often backlight repair requires disassembly of the LCD-panel T460HW03V1 - a painstaking process that requires from the master extra attention and accuracy. In such cases it is possible with the slightest care to damage the glass or plumes and the TV can become unrepairable.
Strictly do not recommend to perform such actions to owners of TV sets and masters who have no experience in LCD panels repair! Especially at home (at the owner's home).
If there is no image with backlight - the screen becomes a little lighter when you turn on the TV, and if the TV is open, the light from the lamps can be seen through the holes in the body of the panel.
In this case the malfunction may be inside the panel, damage to the strips, stubs, the T-CON (Timing Controller) board may be faulty. But often turns out to be defective and the main board MainBoard 46FR3230, is also possible and software failure.
In such cases the master first needs to check the main power supply voltage of the panel at the LVDS connector, the fuses on the T-CON board or the panel strips, as well as the supply and reference voltages for line and column drivers - VGH, VGL, Vcom.
If all of the above measurements are within normal limits, then use an oscilloscope to trace LVDS signals from MainBoard 46FR3230, as well as synchronizing signals from T-CON to driver stubs
