    Samsung 40 inch LE40A456C2D No HDMI picture - with pics

    Model : LE40A456C2D 40 inch LCD

    PSU : BN44-00197A

    Main Board : BN94-01672D / BN41-00980A

    History : The TV came with a blown power board. I replaced the board as the fuse had completey shattered and there was a cheap replacement
    on ebay. All the replacement psu voltages seem near to ok (i think ?).

    Voltages at psu :
    0 reads 0
    13 reads 12.89
    13 reads 12.89
    0 reads 0
    5.3 reads 5.02
    5.3 reads 5.02
    0 reads 0
    0 reads 0
    13 reads 12.89
    0 reads 9
    5.3 reads 5.05
    power reads 3.63

    Problem : At power on the TV blinks red light 3 times, then a delay, then another blink.
    Then Im ONLY able to watch Scart TV.
    If i change to HDMI with a source the TV briefly shows caption 'HDMI 1'
    that caption then dispappears and then a blank screen
    with no sound.

    Have tried service menu reset 5 or 6 times and made no
    difference.

    Is there a known eeprom where the pins can be connected
    for a reset? I had a look for ic1803 and ic502 but dont seem
    to be there.



    The pics of av board are repeated , had a bit of trouble
    with the light etc, let me know if anymore are needed.
    Let me know if anything daft in service menu etc -

    Press INFO when on HDMI. Does HDMI1 appear again?

    Does menu work on HDMI mode?

    After selecting HDMI can you select other ports too?

    Have you tried other HDMI ports?

    Whatever damaged the fuse may have taken out the main board (power surge.)

      thanks Tom -
      Press INFO when on HDMI. Does HDMI1 appear again? Yes info about the source displays, 1980 x 1020 24hz etc.

      Does menu work on HDMI mode? Yes the menu displays.

      After selecting HDMI can you select other ports too? Yes

      Have you tried other HDMI ports? Yep there are 3 hdmi's and its the same results for each.

      Have just been in the service menu again. I notice it has a menu 'WBA Adjust' then 'Calibration', then 'HDMI Calibration', this has 'Failed' next to it. Not a good sign i guess.

        I can't think of an easy way of fixing this aside from replacing the main board. Check the BN9x-xxxxxx(A-Z) number on it for a part number. The letter at the end is important.

          Ok I'll order a replacement board, prob around £25 with postage.
          I agree its prob shoot.
          But,
          can i ask, from a learning point of view... the eeprom pin connection process, is that very much the same as doing a service menu 'reset' ???

            The 5-6 pin jumper on EEPROM sometimes? That is to do with tricking the TV into thinking the settings EEPROM is blank, and filling it with new data. Unfortunately that does not usually affect HDCP keys as those are stored encrypted and in a secret location (if they are leaked, they get blocked, which will stop some older TVs playing back new content... all in the name of copyright.)

              So i guess you perform and pin 5 6 connection process when you might think the eeprom is corrupt or way off the factory settings ?

                Usually you'd only do that if the TV wasn't turning on at all.
