T-Con Board?

[rwagoner]

My wife was watching our (roughly 2014 model year) Samsung UN55F8000 today; the picture went out ... sound is OK. Picture is "black," but has kind of a slight consistent flash to it - black, more black, black, more black, if that makes sense. I could not see an image when I used a flashlight in front.

I read that a T-Con board BN96-27225A might be the culprit. I like the TV ... worth fixing? Is the T-Con board the most common problem for this issue?

Thanks!

You can probably find one on ebay for next to nothing.

The board. People part out sets that have broken screens.
