Introduction
This manual provides instructions for the Generico 8-piece LED backlight bar kit, designed as a replacement for 55-inch Samsung TVs, including models UE55AU7170, UE55AU7170U, and UE55AU7170UXZT. This kit is intended to restore the backlight functionality of your television's display. Before proceeding with installation, it is crucial to verify the compatibility of these bars with your specific TV panel by checking the shape, number of LEDs per bar, and measurements, as TV models may use different backlight configurations depending on the market of destination.
Setup and Installation
The installation of TV backlight bars requires careful handling and technical knowledge. It is recommended that this procedure be performed by a qualified technician. Incorrect installation can damage the television or the backlight bars.
Compatibility Verification:
Before beginning, ensure the provided LED bars match your TV's original backlights. This kit includes:
- 4 pieces of BN96-50315A LED bars, each with 5 LEDs and a length of 577mm.
- 4 pieces of BN96-50316A LED bars, each with 5 LEDs and a length of 509mm.
Compare these specifications and the physical appearance, especially the connectors and LED count, with your existing TV backlights.
Installation Steps (General Guidance):
- Safety First: Disconnect the TV from the main power supply before starting any work.
- Disassembly: Carefully disassemble the TV panel to access the existing backlight system. This typically involves removing the stand, back cover, various internal boards, and the LCD panel itself. Handle the LCD panel with extreme care to avoid damage.
- Remove Old Backlights: Disconnect and remove the old LED backlight bars. Note their placement and orientation.
- Install New Backlights: Install the new Generico LED backlight bars in the exact positions of the old ones. Ensure all connectors are securely attached. The image below shows the types of connectors and part numbers for reference.
- Test: Before fully reassembling, temporarily connect the TV to power and test the new backlights to ensure they illuminate correctly.
- Reassembly: Carefully reassemble the TV, ensuring all components are correctly seated and all screws are tightened appropriately.

Operating Instructions
Once correctly installed, the LED backlight bars will function automatically with your television's power system. They are designed to provide consistent illumination for the display when the TV is powered on. No specific user operation is required for the backlight bars themselves.
Maintenance
These LED backlight bars are designed for long-term use and require minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and extend the lifespan of the backlights and your television, ensure proper ventilation around your TV. Avoid blocking air vents, which can lead to overheating of internal components.
Troubleshooting
No Illumination or Flickering:
- Check Connections: Ensure all connectors between the LED bars and the TV's power board are securely and correctly seated. Loose connections are a common cause of issues.
- Power Supply: Verify that the TV is receiving adequate power.
- Compatibility: Double-check that the installed LED bars are indeed compatible with your specific TV model and panel type.
- Professional Assistance: If issues persist after checking connections and compatibility, it is advisable to consult a qualified television repair technician. Attempting further repairs without expertise may cause additional damage.
