spots can also be caused by hardware
2:31
issues if the screen panel itself is
2:34
damaged it may require a full
2:36
replacement which can be costly another
2:38
potential culprit is the tcon board

yourself a quick heads up this involves

overwhelming it's perfectly fine to stop

here and call a professional for help
3:12
but if you're ready to give it a go
3:14
carefully remove the back panel of your
3:16
TV to reveal its internal parts look for
3:19
the LED strips that illuminate your
3:21
screen over each LED you'll find small
3:24
reflector lenses these lenses can
3:26
sometimes fall off due to heat or wear
3:28
when the adhesive holding them fails

which leads to those annoying bright
3:31
white spots on your screen start by
3:33
finding any loose reflector lenses
3:35
inside the TV casing these tiny circular
3:38
pieces are usually found at the bottom
3:40
of the case grab some clear epoxy
3:42
adhesive it's crucial to use epoxy
3:44
because it can withstand the heat
3:45
generated by the TV unlike regular
3:47
superglue apply a small dab of epoxy to
3:50
the back of each reflector lens then
3:52
carefully reposition it over the
3:54
corresponding LED Precision is key here
3:56
to avoid uneven lighting let the epoxy
3:59
set completely before reassembling your
4:01
TV this might take a few hours so

patience is essential once everything is
4:06
reassembled plug in your TV and turn it
