First off, new to this forum and thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide.
I am having trouble with one of my Samusng lnt 4061f LCD tv's. I have two of them, one works perfectly fine and has never had any problems, the other, I got from my brother in law because he said it doesn't work.
I figure it is worth a shot to see if we can get it working again. He said for awhile that when he would try to turn it on, it would just click for a while but not turn on. Eventually, the TV would turn on but over time it took longer and longer to turn on.
Now I know your thinking, capacitors on the power supply board as its a known issue with these tvs but heres the catch. He had it serviced by Samsung and the repair guy replaced the entire power supply board with a new one (my guess it was new) but it still wouldn't turn on. My brother in law didn't want to pay to have it repaired further (as this was a warranty or good will repair?) so there it sat.
So he ended up giving it to me for free. I took the back off and looked around. Everything is plugged in and nothing looks out of the ordinary. The known capacitors that go bad all look fine, no bulges and the board does appear to be fine (by looks of course).
Another thing I noticed is that the red light that is on the power button doesn't light up when I plug it in. The power supply board does make a single click when you plug it in but it wont turn on, no matter how many times i push the power button. What I also noticed is that the lcd screen appears to be trying to turn on when I plug it in, even if I don't touch the power button.
What's weird is that it makes a clicking noise when I plug it in like its automatically trying to turn on, my working one does not do that. When I plug the good one in it makes no noise and that red light illuminates on the power button, when I push the button, then it makes that noise and turns on. The bad one makes the clicking noise the second I plug it in and the red light on the power button never turns on.
Here is the video I made, sorry for thumping noise in the beginning of the video, it was my wife walking up the stairs.
