Hello all!
I've got a 59" D series Samsung Plasma with issues displaying picture.
There were some power issues (wasn't turning on). Used a shop jimmy kit to fix up the PSU... seems to function now.
It will play chime and audio from inputs. Slight backlight flash when first turned on.
Its got the slow/unhealthy blink on the control board. I tried the panel test(short ps-on and ground/ remove lvds and jumper 3/4 pins). Nothing happened but a boot-loop with the slight screen flash.
This all leads me to consider X/Y Buffers generally... they do have the small caps often replaced on the E series. Also seen some people saying their issues came down to the control board or mainboard somtimes - is there a way I can eliminate those as fail points right now?
VS and VE jump at start, then drop. According to a samsung service bulliten, I'm have a Vscan issue at the y-main. I can pull the little blue caps and replace I suppose - see if that makes a change!
The screen could be garbage, but the guy I bought from said it was functioning and then no longer turned on/boot looped. Someone had been inside before me though, so who knows what damage....
Anyways. I've been through 10 pages of Samsung Plasma trouble-shooting and tonnes of youtube videos. Just figured I'd do a quick post! Thanks!
