I am beginning to think I have a SamSung curse.. Every time I touch one, it won't fix...
Samsung LN46C600....
At first I thought it was a plasma because it's A)Heavy and 2) Has metal back...
But, nope.. It's an LED/LCD...
I get sound, but no display... Read thru available LN46C600 threads...

Strong flashlight shows display is present, so it's a backlight issue...
One post from BudM stood out...
BN44-00341B from TOM66. This board has pull-up resistors, so if you unplug the cable between power supply and the main board, the backlights should come on when you plug TV into the AC outlet.
On this set, I unplug the main board from the power board and plug in.. Don't get any kind of light, flicker or anything....
Before I tear into the unit down to the bare backlights, I was hoping there was something else I can check first...
In reading thru the afore mentioned threads, I read about the guy who invoked the wrath of Zues when checking the large caps...
Want to avoid that if at all possible..
T minus 5 days until my Rigol DS1074Z arrives
