IIRC, the CN702 connector goes to the power supply, not the main. Is there 12V on the LVDS connector when it is lifted off the TCON?   OK, I miss read your post, I measured the fb on v scale, now i measured on ohms scale and with the tv on I get OL with the backlights on, when the backlights go out the fb reads lights a cap starts high 320k on both sides, this is with the new board recently purchased from ebay.. and what wire am i supposed to get 12v on at lvds connector when i pull it, there's 20-30 wires..?

But if there is no voltage at the fb, then we want to look for it with the TCON disconnected by reading it at the unplugged LVDS harness.   With the LVDS harness unplugged, you should be able to read 12V on several pins. The correct pins will be physically close to the fb, in other words, the first couple of pins at the side of the harness that would be close to the fb.   Perform all those tests using your original TCON and your replacement board. If there is a difference between them, then answer for both.

If there is a difference between them, then answer for both.   with the new tcon board installed, ON FB to ground both sides are .3-4m ohms. with lvds unplugged 400k one side other 300k ohms.. TV on testing pins closest to FB the highest was 1.4v - 0v..   Old Tcon board... .4 ohms both sides,.. lvds unplugged .3 ohms... TV on .2mv on FB TV lvds unplgged pins closest to FB 2v- .3 mv.. hope i covered everything...

I have a donor set of boards for that model but it's for the version with a separate TCON and FRC, so I don't have the combo TCON that you do. Still, the voltages from the main should be the same on the LVDS harness. I'll put the boards together and get some voltage readings.

And for the pedantic ppl in the crowd, it should properly be cited as 'Apple Lightning (TM) since it is a registered trademark - not simply 'Lightning'....   So that raises a question (since some ppl like to pick 'fly sh*t' out of pepper), if one refers to a knock off Apple Lightning to USB cable, should they properly call it a 'Apple Lightning to USB' cable? a 'Lightning to USB' cable, a 'lightning to USB' cable??? or perhaps a 'bootleg work-a-like Apple Lightning to USB cable'????   I'll let the resident neurotic Phil answer this one since he seems to be most annoyed by the grammar/capitalization rules, and syntax of the phrase.... ....sheesh...
