Samsung LCD LN40A550P3FXZA, no picture!

[keeyana]

Samsung sent a tech out to replace the motherboard and capacitors for free. It worked for 2 weeks and now is doing the same thing as before! It's soooooooo frustrating. I am looking for people who are experiencing the same issue as me. I find plenty of people who had their power board and/or capacitors replaced with it working fine, but not like my TV; it went out again and does the exact same thing. Symptoms are blinking stand by light, black screen until it comes on then vertical lines (unable to see any pic), makes a loud high pitch noise at times. I took the back of the TV off and the capacitors are fine, not bulging, etc. Any ideas? I would appreciate any feedback or assistance. Thank you for your time! Let me know if you need additional info and I will get it to you stat.

Yes. Remember, it is Samsung's problem to fix. You should not have to fix this. Samsung screwed up, so Samsung must fix it.... and don't buy Samsung again!

They should have a warranty for there work.
I think is the mainboard the problem.
I have one of these in my bedroom and it was only the capacitors that needed repolacing and it works great.

Put the rear cabinet back on the TV and call Samsung back. They should stand behind their work, but when you get into the set behind them, they have every right to void the guarantee on their work.
