I have a TV problem that I hope someone can help with. I have a Samsung UN60ES7500 where the HDMI connectors don't work but the component connector works. I would like to know if I can connect component cables to a switching box that has multiple HDMI connectors for DVD player, Xbox, etc. If not, can someone recommend a reasonably priced repair service to fix what I think is the main board. The repair sites I see on Ebay are $150 and up. I haven't pulled the back off to get the board number but the ones that could possibly fit are $175 and up - too much to risk on a 5-6 year old TV. Your thoughts/suggestions/comments would be appreciated!

Re: Samsung UN60ES7500 HDMI failure
Looks like the main board suffers from failures of the lead-free bga connections on the main processor. Proper repair is to get it reballed. Some have had success with a heat gun to the processor. Used boards may have the same failure in time. nickstv has an account on this site.

Thanks for the replies. Any way I can connect the component connectors to a box that would have multiple HDMI inputs so I can use a DVD player, Xbox, etc. and switch back and forth as needed?Comment
