I have a 50" Samsung Plasma (HPT5064X/XAA) which is experiencing the same clicking on/off problem that is discussed all over the web. Most of the tutorials on how to fix this issue by replacing the caps are all about LCDs, so when I opened up the back and looked at the power supply board, it is very different.
I have no experience with this stuff at all, only a little soldering experience, but enough to give this a shot myself, figuring I have nothing to lose as my unit is out of warranty, and the next most common fix is to replace the whole power supply board.
I replaced 2 KMG 10V 2200uf, and that didn't do the trick. I looked further and found one 820UF 100V cap that does look slightly bulged, so I'd like to replace it, however, I figured as I'm ordering this one, I might as well just order replacements for the rest on the board at the same time, hoping that one of them may be the culprit it replacing this bulging one does not work.
However, I'm pretty confused as to what type to buy. I lined up a short list at digikey by searching for each caps voltage and uf. But I do not understand the difference between HE, NHG, FC, FM, EB. Here is what I have lined up to order, but I get the sense that some of these will not be right.
1 1 493-1686-ND CAP 820UF 100V ELECT HE RADIAL
2 2 P5544-ND CAP 1000UF 25V ELECT NHG RADIAL
3 1 P10323-ND CAP 100UF 50V ELECT FC RADIAL
4 2 P12383-ND CAP 220UF 25V ELECT FM RADIAL
5 2 P10301-ND CAP 470UF 35V ELECT FC RADIAL
6 4 P13126-ND CAP 1000UF 35V ELECT EB RADIAL
All the caps I'm looking for are radial and pretty much look the same, just in different sizes. They are all in this shape: (picture taken from a thread in your FAQ)
I did search around on here a bit, and I looked at the FAQ, but didn't find the answer. I'm aware that this is probably a very basic question, so if someone can point me in the right direction I would be very thankful for your help.
Enjoy the day.
