Normal for TCL TVs to leak small amounts of light from the top border at the back?

Speedster996 · Feb 16, 2023

Is it normal for the back of your TV to leak light across the top border? Look closely and you can make out 2-3 dots of light coming out the back of the top border towards the left edge. I think my wrist must have grazed against the border when I was trying to clean the vents at the back because I don't think this was there when I got it.

I noticed a faint glow behind the top border of the TV when turned it on in the dark!

Should I leave it be? Should I apply pressure to try and get the TV accent/body to sit down properly. Do I apply some tape to seal it

Kinda not sure what to do.

Hello Speedster996, sorry to hear you're having trouble with your TV.

Unfortunately we would not be able to help with this as the forums as pretty much Xbox based and you may not find the answer you're looking for. I'd recommend contacting the TV manufacturer support team to see what they have to say.

No worries. Hopefully you'll find someone who has the same model that would be able to let you know.

Excellent, thank you.

Seeing how this is a forum revolving around gamers, I was hoping to get a gamer's perspective on this.

Oh well, it is what it is.

I have the same issue. Xbox one won't recognize signal from HDMI on TCL tv. Works on different another tv but won't work on TCL and red lines on my vizio. Tried settings. Different HDMI cables. Just will no longer work on TCL..called TCL they said it's
an Xbox issue. Xbox says TCL issue.. Frustrated!!!

Seriously its crazy. I think the main difference is a tv remote is directional and only shoots a small amount of IR to the source and the Kinect just lights up the room in a fireball of IR light that the sensors can read
