00:00BN96 vs D4GE LED Strips, Which Fixes More TV's Spoken Script
00:06If your TV went dark but you can still see a faint picture, you've got a backlight problem, not a
00:11dead panel.
00:12And here's the confusing part, Samsung use both BN96 and D4GE part numbers for basically the same job.
00:19I dug through the listings and found 5 strips that actually sell, and 1 D4GE kit that covers a whole
00:25stack of TVs.
00:27Let's break it down.
00:29First up is this 36 LED strip, part number LM41-01040A, also listed as BN96-52587A.
00:38That fits the 43-inch AU8000 and AU8005 series, plus the CU models.
00:4536 LEDs spread across the strip means you get even light instead of that bright hotspot in the middle.
00:51It's $11.18, it's sold over 4,000 times, and it sits at 4.9 stars.
00:57If you own a 43-inch AU8000, just grab this one and stop searching.
01:02Then there's the 39-inch F5000 strip, the N96-25302A and BN96-25303A, also known as CYHF390BGMV1V.
01:14This one's for the UE39-F5000, F5008, F5020, and F5070 models.
01:21It's 5 stars from 3,750 buyers, which is about as clean a record as you'll see on a TV
01:27part.
01:28Cost is $22.03, so it's the priciest here, but that rating tells you people are getting the right part
01:34the first time.
01:36Next, the 32-inch EH-4000 strip, the N96-35204A and 35205A, matching D3GE320SM0R2 and DF320AGHR2R3.
01:48Covers the UE32EH-4000, EH-4005, EH-4003, and UA32EH-4003.
01:56That's a lot of old 32-inch TVs still sitting in bedrooms and kitchens, and this is the strip that
02:01brings them back.
02:03$17.20, 2400 sold, 4.8 stars.
02:08Solid middle-of-the-road pick.
02:11Now here's where D4GE wins on volume.
02:14This is a 10-strip kit, part number D4GE320DC0R3NR2, cross-referenced as BN96-35208A.
02:23It fits the UE32H-4500, H-4510, H-4290, H-4000, and J-4100.
02:3110 strips for $14.11.
02:35If you fix TVs on the side, or you've got a few of these 2014-era 32-inch sets lying
02:41around, this is the cheapest per-TV fix in the whole list.
02:444.9 stars from 2300 buyers.
02:48Everything I mentioned is linked in the description below, with the exact part numbers written out so you can match
02:54yours before you buy.
