Re: Samsung PN43D450A2D help needed
There is one other test I can think of, but it is fairly involved. If you can find a way to attach two 120V light bulbs (in series) to the Vs output of the PSU (around 200V, two 120V light bulbs = one 240V light bulb) then that will provide a load to it, we will be able to see if the problem is that it cannot support load. (Plasma panels draw more power for brighter images, unlike LCD. This means the PSU might be able to work with a dim image, but as soon as a brighter image comes up, it shuts down.)
If not, perhaps you can just try replacing the PSU anyway, take a chance on it.
