    Samsung LN37A550P3F

    Hi everyone i have a samsung tv here and the red power light just continuously turns on and on trying to turn the tv on and the screen remains black but after awhile the backlight will turn on and the tv makes a effort to turn on but there is no samsung logo and the backlight is just on with no boot up logo and no picture, cant access menu, switch sources etc. I took the tv apart to inspect the boards to see no bulging at all not even slightly even checked the backlight inverter no obvious damage anywhere. I heated up the power board very carefully with a heatgun and when i heat the power caps on the power supply board that makes the backlight turn on with no picture and no bootup logo instantly instead of it taking 15 mins to finally turn on the backlight and eventually keep power cycling, so my question to everyone is this a power supply cap issuehttps://www.ebay.com/itm/Repair-Kit-...item4cf49aa524or is this a backlight inverter issue. Thanks for taking the time to read my thread any help would be greatly appreciated i will post pics of anything that people request. -thanks

    Do you have a multimeter for testing the powersupply?

        Test voltages at connector CNM802, see the legend/map right to the left of it, test with negative lead to ground back of tv chassis is ok, probe top of connector, theres a 1 where number 1 pin is right there, test with tv plugged in then hit tv on, report back with both conditions, second video shows powersupply testing.

                  that is cmn802 that is just the legend for it and also i should let ya know i bought a cap kit https://www.ebay.com/itm/5x-Panasoni...72.m2749.l2649 for the main psu caps also it amazing turned on and it worked till i unplugged it so i suspect its just some bad caps you can continue to ask question and i will still reply and keep you guys updated on what happens.

                      Sounds like a solid plan, without a meter that does esr readings, a recap will fix it or at least eliminate the caps as a fault, let us know how it goes.

                          LNS LNT LNxxA and LNxxB model years are known for bad caps. I would replace them all even if not bulged, ezpecially Samwa and Capxon brands. Though not common, caps can fail and look fine. I have come across replaced caps that are the wrong value or non low esr.

                                  I would replace C102, then try it, see if that was the problem, just for curiosity, before you replace the caps.

                                          Hi everyone!

                                          Hope you're all having a great day, and thank you very much for stopping by and taking the time to read this post to help me with my parents' Samsung TV.

                                          My issue: No backlight.

                                          Model: QE82Q70RAT
                                          Type No: QE82Q70RAT

                                          The TV was already serviced by Samsung once under warranty for the exact same issue, but six months after the fix, the backlight went out again. Now, Samsung is asking for nearly the same price as a brand new TV to fix this with the same 6-month guarantee.

                                          So hopefully, I can fix this cheaper.

                                          Samsung UN55NU7300F Curved TV. Half side backlight out. Fixed by just removing the rear snap cover
                                          by howardc64
                                          TV was fixed just after removing Samsung's rear snap cover.

                                          This curved TV's construction is rather interesting. When the snapped on back is removed, rest of the TV will relax the curvature. Top of LCD panel is loose as it wants to straighten out against the slightly curved bezel. Snapped back provide most of the curvature shape. So just simple disassembly of rear cover will allow the rest of the TV frame to relax its curvature. Thats probably what fixed it but no idea which connection. 4x LEDs are edge lit.

                                          Maybe PSU->backlight connector didn't have a good contact?...

                                          Samsung QN75Q6FNA backlight no display, red LED blink 2x, fault in panel

                                          • Prior owner tried a replacement main board. No difference.
                                          • Samsung 2x red blinking standby LED = panel fault
                                          • Jumpered FB_TRDY_1 (pin 1 CN1300 left. main tcon->left side buffer boards) and FB_TRDY_3 (pin 95 CN1301 right. main tcon->right side buffer boards) This allows testing individual T-Con (on main board) connection to panel on this Samsung. Found fault on left side (viewing from rear of TV)
                                          • Each side has 2 buffer boards, disconnected left side flex between 2 buffer boards. Fault is on the left most board.
                                          • Tape masking eventually isolated to CN1300 pin 15 (CKV4_GOA) Display
