    Samsung 943b no power on after power off

    This is from a Samsung 943b which, after power off, will not power on unless switched off at the power point for a while

    Its controls are all touch sensitive, not mechanical

    Nothing obvious wrong to my eyes, nor anything gross when I try my ESR meter on the Sam Young electrolytics in situ

    Suggestions ?

    1) Does the power LED come on?

    2) If not, are the secondary voltages and 5V present on the power and logic board?

    3) If present, do the voltage regulators output the correct voltage?

    4) Any cold or bad solder joints?

      The power LED does come on from a cold start

      But after power off, will not come back on

      Until left for a while switched off at the power point, after which it does come on and monitor works normally

      Not confident about voltage checking, was hoping for an obvious problem

        and I can walk you through measuring the voltages on the secondary side. The voltages on the secondary side are likely to be 24V DC or less. If they are absent, then it will be necessary to measure the primary (HOT) side. If you have aligator clips, it will make measuring the hot side less intimidating as shown by budm in this thread (but we are not measuring for AC - only DC in your situation)
