    Samsung S24B300 Garbled Screen

    Hi,

    I have a Samsung S24B300 that has an issue in which the screen is garbled when first turned on. After times varying from 5-20 seconds the screen resolves itself, but has red snow when displaying black.

    The main circuit board is labeled sa350 and is the version with VGA and HDMI connectors, however I believe that the issue is within the tcon board. Anytime the screen is garbled, there is a high pitched noise coming from a cluster of components but when the issue resolves itself, the noise disappears.

    I tested the powersupply, it is rated for 14v and it varies from 15 - 14v depending on the board and it also has a center pain making it non standard.

    I believe the noise is coming from a capacitor that is going bad, I tested all the resistance for the capacitors in the region and the one with the lowest C18 1.06 ohms.

    My theories are bad/cracked solder, broken or intermittent capacitors or that the power supply is not supplying enough wattage. Please let me know what you think.

    As an addition, I also ensured that the panel has the latest firmware update from samsung.
