    Re: Samsung SyncMaster T240 - 2 seconds then black problem

    Sorry to bring up an older thread. But has anyone found a solution to this?

    Burn marks in the same place on mine, except my monitor is a T260, but same looking board.
    I have resoldered most of the major components hoping that might fix the problem.

    But same 2 seconds on then off.

    I have a new transformer on the way, thats the next step.

    Other than that, all the capacitors look ok, doesnt mean that they are though.

    Cheers

      Mine ended up having a bad main board. The processor chip got hot to the touch and after changing the board, it was 100%. Good luck!

        As in the whole power board?

        Or the other board thats in the case?

          All good guys.
          If anyone has this problem in the future, it was the transformer. Unsoldered, resoldered the new one,
          put it back together, All is well

              Retiredcaps has written an excellent troubleshooting guide for this problem. It's been revised several times, the latest version is at the end.

                model: 2233bw -
                I have a 2 seconds then black problem after replacing an AP4506GEH ((Push/Pull Mosfet dual channel N/P) to-242 SMD 4 + 1 legs.)

                With 2x TO-220 packaged MOSFET with similar ratings (30v rdson 0.28ohm/0.36ohm) and connecting the D legs together to make a dual mosfet.
                The very reason i did go this desperate path is because couldn't find AP4506GEH or anything similar (several mosfets with same package mentioned in this forum) in the Thai semiconductor market.

                The least is that the MOSFET tweak did work. However, I will post photo of the charred board and circuit pattern around the AP4506GEH, and offcourse the driver mosfet is burnt as well.

                After reading the above posts, I can only think of the transformer gone bad. But isn't there any way to revive this end transformer? lets say by chilling it in a freezer and injecting epoxy glue to it afterwards? i saw some aircon engineers did it with such coils here in thailand.

                My only releive is that it does light up for 2 seconds. I reflowed many points and changed 2 capacitors..

                Still have to measure the transformer. Anyone know where i can buy this?

                I'll up some pics tommorow. Cheers!.

                  @preface: If it's a different model monitor, you might be better off opening a new thread for it.
                  That would also help others to find it without having to dig through a multi-page thread for a different monitor to find the relevant posts

                    Any advice please T240 classic two second on off. Have replaced caps and transformer. If I switch the monitor on and off a number of times the screen will come on however to get it to switch on again i have to cycle on/off a number of times. Have wasted too much time on this please any advice or help.

                        I had the same problem (switch off after a few seconds) ;swapping with a CCFL of recovery I finally found that it was the top CCFL (CN304) : during disassembly I overview the wire was stripped and insulation damaged .

                            Hi there!
                            Bringing up the tread again hoppfully for some answer from you.

                            I have the same problem on my T220HD monitor.
                            Checked all capacitors and it looks good.
                            I have checked all the voltage both on mainboard and the other board and it.s ok.
                            Checked the ccfls and the all lights up in 2 second and then go out, checked them on same connector.
                            It must be the transformer on the power board.

                            lu33390
                            Where did you buy your led conversion set and do you have some instruction on how to change it.

                              Hi,

                              I have T240, but I'm missing the value and voltage for :
                              C109
                              C114
                              C118

                              In the first post picture i could see C109 is 47uF 50 V

                              I replaced all the capacitors but The problem appear again three days after, so I think it is that i used bad value for these three...

                              Thanks for your help

                                T240hd:I replaced transformer (brend new) & capacitor (not low ESR) but problem still present!
                                Already check fuses and are ok; any Idea ?

                                      Re: Samsung SyncMaster T240 - 2 seconds then black problem

                                      Having the same "2 seconds then black" problem with my T240, I want to ask if there is a possibility to check the Inverter coils as long as the inverter is still on baord?

                                      Is there futher a possibility to check between Inverter/caps problem and a problem with the lamps ?

                                      Caps, inverter and board itselve does not show any sign of failure.

                                      Thank you very much for assistance.

                                        Yes what is the part number on the transformer

                                        Only by using a spare lamp ( Monitor with good lamp?) or build a test lamp.

                                          Re: Samsung SyncMaster T240 - 2 seconds then black problem

                                          Thank you so much for the fast reply:
                                          - the part # of the inverter is TM-10160 / TNE 0913DT
                                          - the board and it's parts look all like brand new - now burns, no Deformation, no colour Change or dirt.
                                          Looking forward to hearing soon again from you

                                            Hi folks,

                                            I'm new here and was wondering whether you might be kind enough to give me some advice on troubleshooting the following problem:

                                            Quite a few years ago now, a couple of years from new, my Samsung Syncmaster 740BF LCD monitor starting playing up by making a buzzing noise and then the display would go blank. I seem to remember the blue power led would also go off when this happened but that I'm not 100% sure of. By pressing the power button I do remember I could at first get it working again but eventually the problem would come back. At the time I had read about...

                                            Samsung UN40H5003 boot loop every ~8 seconds
                                            by eigma
                                            Hi, I rescued a Samsung UN40H5003AF (H = 2014 FHD) from the curb. Symptoms are: standby (red) light comes on, stays on for 8 seconds, flickers off, then comes back on, and the cycle continues.

                                            Service manual: https://www.electronica-pt.com/esque...is-u8la-71272/

                                            SMPS board: checked voltages, all seem normal (A13V = 12.8V, UD = 3.3V, PWM_BLU = 0.77V, PS_OnOff = 5.5V). Remove 10p cable to main board -> backlight comes on. I think this means SMPS board and backlight are good.

                                            Main board: BN94-07592P / BN97-08922R...
