I'm in a shop now buying these poly caps :-) stay tuned...
Update: bought the caps! These two caps are one of my primary suspects from the beginning. Definitely if these caps are bad, Vs will fail as on my TV set. They are located between heatsink and transformers, probably subjected to lot of heat. I'll replace them as soon as I get home tonight. Hope it will solve the problem...

Great stuff keep us update hopefully they are the issue. Sorry for being snappy just wanted to know haha.

Unfortunately, no luck :-( I replaced both caps C523 & C524. Actually I tested old caps as soon as I took them out from PCB. Both tested good on ESR tester. Replaced with new ones just in case...
So, we are back to square one... Any ideas? What about ML4824? I really need to fix this TV...

Is the Vs on signal that the Mainboard generates present ?

VS to RTN (chasis ground) - OK, open
Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q6 Q8 - no shorts
D9 D10 - no shorts
F20S - OK
So, this is only simple short circuit test with DMM. If I want to test all FETs and transistors in detail I'll have to remove them from circuit which is very complicated on this PSU...
Removing F4S sounds like good idea. Will try later... but, it anything important is shorted, I suppose some fuses would blow.
I just bought ML4824CP1. It's a CP version which has slightly lower operating temperature range than IP version Samsung original. CP version has 0 to 70C and IP has -40 to 85C. IP version would be better because IC is located between two heatsinks, but CP is all they had in local shop for 6$. I'll try later, if it works I'll put a small heatsink on it. Stay tuned...
