Hello, here with a Samsung UE55H8005SQ TV project that's literally was thrown outside in the winter, probably for not starting and only giving “Red blinking light”, rescued it from the snow the day after…
Anyway, managed to narrow the problem down to a set of 7 ceramic capacitors on 1 of 4 boards that connects the ribbon cables from the panel (edge boards?), it showed short circuit.
Removed them and plugged it all back in to make sure the panel kicked on and wasn't cracked, expecting at least missing lines or 1/4 of the image gone but to my surprise the TV worked fine.
Suppose I should not use the TV like this but finding replacements seems impossible.
Have tried message seller on Ebay that have spare parts for my model, hoping to find someone that have their cracked screen still, tried Shopjimmy but they do not sell those parts and there is no way for me to identify them without special tools, no text on them ether…
What can I do?
