    Re: Samsung LCD TV Power Supply BN44-00438B

    ok I have gone back and checked the PS_ON and it seems to be Ok
    TV off LED ON PS_ON is 3.5v
    TV on LED OFF PS_ON is 0 V
    Capacitor stays at 160v with TV on or off
    As long as 110 plugged in capacitor 160V
    Maybe after a few hours it should discharge to zero even with 110 plugged in?
    You said if PS_ON is OK then it is definitely Power Supply
    Still need photos?
    If you do hope my photography is up to mark
    Thanks again

      At this point you do have power supply problem due to the PFC Voltage booster is not running when PS_ON is present.
      The 160V will always there as long as the TV is plugged in so the standby power supply can run.

        OK so at this stage should I order the power supply or is it likely that I can repair it with my limited knowledge A quick question. Why do guys like you spend all this time and effort to help people
        Do you gain anything besides satisfaction?

          1) I like to learn and keep up with new technologies (I worked in many fields of electronics).
          2) Keep the stuff off the landfill. I do my volunteer works once a week at Electronics recycle so I get to see the inside of the products and figure how it works and how they are put together. Hands on is the best thing for learning.
          3) I use the knowledge of what I see and learn here and from lots of people and lots of other places to see how products are made so i can improve what I design into the products.
          4) It is fun.

            OK I am now stuck as I have been bitten by the "repair" bug. In my younger days I built I think every Heathkit so now nostalgia has set in. But I must be able to find the schematic for the BN4400438B. Is the BN4400438A similar? Any schematic for that?

              Just thought of the possibility of using a separate power supply to power the backlights?

                Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
                by sam_sam_sam
                I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                Modification to a ZD-987 desoldering/soldering station using a external switching power supply
                by sam_sam_sam
                I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

                I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...

                Samsung BN44-00262A H37F1-9SS power supply help finding blown value components!
                by cheeky2
                This Samsung combined power supply and inverter was replaced a while ago from a Samsung 37inch LE37B530P7W TV. However I would like to repair this one.
                I have replaced the Mosfets Q1820 and Q1821 ( FDPF7N50U) which were both blown and the fuse FM802S. The schematic for this power supply that is attached doesn't relate to this power supply as the driving transistors and diodes are D1830, D1831, D1832, D1833, Q1811 & Q1810 are nowhere on the schematic!
                Does anyone know what the components for D1830, D1831, D1832, D1833, Q1811 & Q1810 should be? I ask as I did change the Mosfets...

                Definitive technology SC 2000 subwoofer amp's power supply clicking and popping
                by JimBanville
                The sub developed a constant popping every couple seconds from woofer and power LED flickering with nothing but wall AC connected. Connecting an audio cable didn't change anything. It doesn't play but a second or two of audio in between the pops.
                Opened it up and discovered the power supply is making a faint clicking or ticking sound.
                I measured the amp's output to the woofer and it pulses up to 50mv DC to be driver. The pulses coincide with the power supply ticking/clicking.
                I measured the power supply output going to the amp board and it too has this pulsing. Voltage cycles...

                Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                by Tynan Dill
                I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                Assuming...
