    Samsung LNT3242H 32" LCD TV, no picture but audio works- NO apparent component damage

    Hi all,

    I've got a Samsung 32" LCD TV. While watching it one day, I switched channels and then hit the "last" button quickly, and the screen went black. Audio works great.

    The testing I have done thus far:
    - After leaving tv on overnight (~7-10 hours), still no picture
    - After 24 hours unplugged, still no picture
    - Shining flash light on screen in dark room shows no hint of image on screen
    - No back lighting around edges of screen in dark room
    - No apparent bulging or leaking capacitors or burnt components


    Model: LNT3242HX/XAA
    Series: AH6S3CHP309942H
    Version: PP01

    A service manual, or any additional input would be greatly appreciated. I'd rather try fixing it before giving it up (it is 5 years old, so rather than pay to have it repaired, we'd rather get a new one later down the road). I'd like to save it because I hate to add to the landfill... but, if there's no chance, then I'll guess I'll have to.

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    by TR103
    Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
    - sound and backlight, but no picture
    - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
    - it keeps rebooting
    - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
    - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
    - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

    - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...

    SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
    by JJAAMM
    This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

    Problem
    TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

    Samsung UN60EH6000F Black Screen, Backlight and Sound Good. Power Cycle Returns Picture
    by Mgiffune
    I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.

    I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and

    Samsung QN75Q6DRA, No Picture, Has BL, and Sound
    by Dodgethis
    Hello all,

    This is my first post, but long term lurker on the form learning as much as possible about these TV's. I was given this TV as due to a power outage of constant On/off of power to TV. The TV originally would just click on and off (Typical Reboot Cycle). I opened the back of the TV, and troubleshooted by taking the 96 pin LVDS off one at a time to see if I had a picture on either side. I finally fixed the reboot cycle by finding the error on the left side of the screen off connector CN 1301, and the TV would stay on. Further troubleshooting led me to the driver boards where...
