Step 3
Pry Back Cover from Clips
- Use a strong plastic spudger to pry off the back cover. With fingertips at bottom pull the cover up from the back of the TV. Get tip of spudger under it and slide around the corner to side. Pull up with slight pressure. There are one clip on each side and 8 clips across the top. Slide the spudger around top and sides to pry loose each clip.

Step 5
Disconnect T-Con and Mother Board
- There are four cable harnesses connected to the power board. In this photo the one at top (to mother board) is disconnected – squeeze the white tabs at each end to disconnect it. Squeeze the black sides of other 3 harnesses to disconnect them. Two harnesses look identical. Mark one with a sharpie so you can distinguish it on reassembly. See arrow.
