Considerable skill and expertise is required to strip down the set and replace the defective LED strips. We recommend checking out the instructional videos available on YouTube for LED TV strip testing and replacement.

It is thoroughly recommended that you use external batteries such as 2 x AA in series to test the individual LEDs.

The point to note is that the LEDs are wired in series so if one strip goes open circuit then none of the strips will light. It is also very common with this type of strip for LED's to go short circuit and not illuminate which can cause dull patches in the picture.
