Hi all got a strange one, a previous customer of mine whom takes good care of his possessions, brought a slim line samsung plasma tv around 1 year ago they said its been great-picture as well as sound- then last night they were watching and he said that "loud bang and the tv went off and a huge crack formed on the inner glass/screen now it wont turn on at all, is there any thing that can be done Reece as its just out of warranty ?". What could of happened its not wall mounted and he said that he didn't knock it or even move it, strange or what ?

Re: Randomly cracking Pdp's ???
Im thinking that the frame could have been sent out with a defect or uneven bow in it when the pdp glass was installed or it got bowed which put pressure on the glass that when heated after use got fragile and caused a micro fracture then just fully spread down the screen. I doubt that the customer would have done it by a genuine accident but you never know.Please Do Not PM My Page Asking For Help Badcaps Is The Place For Advise, Page Linked For Business Reasons Only.

Re: Randomly cracking Pdp's ???
Definitely. It's a known issue with Samsung plasma sets.
Samsung won't admit it, but the D series, and some of the E series, are VERY well known to spontaneously crack. It appears to be a thermal thing, as the glass gets hot it can crack.
If you complain, they'll fob you off. If you complain loud enough they'll replace the panel or TV. It's a shame, because I quite like the pic quality of some of the lower-end D-series TVs. And the 51" set (PS51D450) isn't too badly put together.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: Randomly cracking Pdp's ???
Thanks for that Tom and guess what it is ps43d450 d series thanks for confirming that it seemed too odd for the guy to make up a lie that it randomly cracked while being on for a few hours. So guess another shoddy design from samsung is the real issue, such a shame.Please Do Not PM My Page Asking For Help Badcaps Is The Place For Advise, Page Linked For Business Reasons Only.

Re: Randomly cracking Pdp's ???
So just went to see a PS43E450A1W, woman said no picture thought Y-main/PSU/control etc.
Nope, cracked panel, tiny spiderweb, not impact as outer glass undamaged. Flashed brief faint Samsung logo with many jumbled lines, then shut down, so panel still holds gas surprisingly, but there are electrode shorts causing problems with buffer board / Vscan.
Very common issue - definitely look out for it when you buy one of these sets with no picture.Last edited by tom66; 10-15-2015, 01:13 PM.Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

Re: Randomly cracking Pdp's ???
Yes as suspect E450 is affected just like the one I had which was a D series but E uses same panels if my research is correct.Last edited by ReeceyBurger123; 10-15-2015, 01:15 PM.Please Do Not PM My Page Asking For Help Badcaps Is The Place For Advise, Page Linked For Business Reasons Only.
