Re: Samsung UN46EH6000 LED ERROR Codes

They mean nothing. It is not an error code.

Most likely open circuit LED strip, or short circuit LED to chassis.

Yea, that turned out to be the problem with a previously mentioned Westinghouse I worked on..

OK, disassembly it is...

I don't think that's a factory cut.......

Well, it WAS until I spliced it to see if that was my problem..

Yea, probably not the smartest move, I realize...

Thanx for the response...

That will cause a Samsung to cycle the power or fail to boot.

I have a nice UN46EH6000 that I have tried 3 different power boards on. All three produce the same response.

When plugged in, I hear the SAMSUNG tones, but absolutely no light on the screen at all..

On the power button (a PS3 style thumb button) a red LED blinks 6 times..

I was going to tear down the unit to the bare bulbs and see if the problem lies there but before I do, I wanted to see if those Error Code Blinks mean anything else.. GOOGLE was no help..

Also, on the cable between the power board and the video board, there is a trace that had been factory cut...

Any hints would be appreciated...
