    Samsung UN55H6203AFXZA US01, open LED string…confirm my diagnosis?

    So yestirday I picked up a Samsung UN55H6203AFXZA with sound, no picture with an image on the screen for $40.00. It's a nice set. Backlights do not illuminate.

    Voltages are all present at indicated values except at the LED connector. I have volts at the first pair (callout “M1”) but no volts on the rest of them. Looking at the power board the LED's appear to be daisy chained together. Looks like the return volts must dump in to the next pair, then the next and so on.

    Pair voltages:
    “M1”.…… ramps to 325V, drops for about 7 seconds and ramps to 325V, repeat
    “M2” ……0
    “M3”…….0
    “M4” ……0
    “M5”…….0

    Voltage from “M1” positive to “M2” “M3” “M4” and “M5” negative are identical to the M1 pair, ramps 325, drops for 7sec, ramps 325 and repeat.

    My conclusion is M2 LED string is open.

    Would anyone mind confirming this for me? Thanks!

    Thumbs up on that diagnosis. Yes indeed I do believe you have an open chain.

        TCON and self diagnosis!
        by angelos
        Hi Guys.
        I have experienced something rather unique and need to find out by the forum what to make of it.
        I got in this set, a JVC or Telefunken LED TV whose complaint is that sometimes the set comes up blank with the back lights running. So I switched on and yes there was a blank screen and back lights were running. I checked the fuse on the TCON and sometime later I lifted the set off the table to check the image (the TV has no feet to let it stand upright) and noticed the set was cycling red, green blue, test pattern, blank then all over again doing this. Suddenly the no signal...

        iMac fan ramps up after shutting down. Software? SMC? FET?
        by BMCappelletti
        Hi everyone.
        There are some topics here (also on a lot of other places) regarding this issue, but I believe none has a definitive answer. At least I didn't see anyone saying it really worked for them.
        In my case I have an iMac A1418 (late 2012) that the fan goes full blast (or at least ramps up the speed) after going to sleep or turning the computer off.
        It's not a software issue, cause it was formatted and it happens with any MacOS version I test.
        At some places people say it would be an issue with the S5 rail. Others say it's the S0 rail. And some others say it's an SMC...

        For Badcaps Readers, Please note that I am hopefully going to present this same message to Lenovo to see if they have any insight to the matter as well and figured to share the entirety here for clarification. The System is out of warranty as it is but does have the option to have it extended.

        LG 60PV450 Possible Bad YSUS Need help confirming Diagnosis
        by PlasMatt
        I have an LG plasma that after reading through a bunch of posts and doing some testing I believe has a bad YSUS board. The problem is that that doesn't make sense to me for some of the symptoms. The problem started yesterday. While watching a movie the TV just shut down like I pressed power. I have it hooked to a PC and use RS232 to turn it off and on so I thought maybe something had glitched there. I turned it back on and finished the movie with no problems. The same thing happened today so I checked logs to see if something in the control glitched and sent an off command but it didn't, After...
