Hey all,
Got a Samsung UN55F8000 and the HDMI went out after a power outage. EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS fine. Have tested the HDMIs with multiple wires, and other sources VGA, AV etc all still work. TV is a daily living room TV just would be nice to get HDMI back.
Suspect Mainboard/ Mainboard CPU
Got a main board off EBay and swapped out mainboard and surprisingly TV would power on, click three times, and power off. I took the eBay board out immediately to not do any additional damage. Upon further inspection the seller (TV parts lots of reviews) has quite a few “board was bad” reviews.
Did I miss a step in mainboard install (reset firmware) or checking the Tcon or power supply for an HDMI malfunction? Plan on returning the eBay mainboard for a “tested” board and trying again but thought I'd check you guys first.
Appreciate any feedback!
