    BN44-00472A power off loop

    Hi I have a Samsung BN44-00472A from a UE32D4003BW.
    The TV didn't power on and I found that ICM801S (STR-W6053S) was shorted and the fuse FM801S had blown so I replaced both of those.
    The board now powers on for around 1 second then there is a click and it powers off, this repeats until AC power is removed.

    I've checked the main rails on the cold side and resistances to ground look sensible:
    B13v / Vamp: 23K
    B5v: 216 ohms (schematic shows a 220 ohm resistor connected between it and ground)
    A5v: 1.5M and falls slowly
    Vdrv: 6M and falls slowly
    PS-ON: 65k
    PWM_DIM / EPWM: 6.5K
    BLU_ON: 6K
    13v1: 880K
    DRV_OCP1: 67K
    DRV_OCP2: OL
    PWM_W1: 7.5K

    I'll power it on later and double check voltages but from what I remember they all seemed OK for the short time they are up.
    I think DRV_OCP1 was around 2.5v (comes from SEM5025 fail pin) so I assume the problem is something to do with that.

    Schematic attached, will upload board photo when home later.

    Any ideas what might cause this?

    I’m stuck in the same place. In my case, it’s a very similar BN44-00471A from a UE26D4003BW (I’m actually using schematic for BN44-00472A and I’ve found minimal differences). All voltages fall every second. I disconnected all supply to the backlight driver and then it turns on without problem (A5V, B5V, B13V OK). But as soon as I power the backlight and I connect DRV_OCP1 (without LED strips connected), the problem comes again. It seems that IC SEM5025 rises FAIL pin to 5V every two seconds, and I still haven’t found anything bad or shorted. Checked all MLCC around it.

      I’ve eventually repaired it, although not on my own merits. DRV_OCP1 wasn’t a problem after connecting the LED strips. If you disconnect Main board, the PSU turns on by default and the backlight works at max brightness. The problem arised from DRV_OCP2 after connecting MAIN board. I found a blog (Kent Liew LCD repair) that explained a very similar case with BN44-00472A. He found that the culprit is QQ9101 (MMBTA92, marking 2D or YV, depending on manufacturer), that is responsible of raising DRV_OCP2 protection. My transistor tested normal, but I tried to replace it anyway. Now it works!
