    Samsung LN-S4051D no sound

    My friend asked me to help with fixing his TV with no sound. But I only have very limited electronic knowledge. Therefore, I need you to help.

    There is picture but just no sound from the tv. I have checked that it is not the source or input problem. I have checked that the TV speakers are okay.

    On the power board, the top left corner capacitor (CM808) is with a bulged top. It is 25V, 1000 micro faraday. I then replaced it with a 35V, 1000 micro faraday because that is just the closest value I have, and I guess it is okay to do so.

    I got all the voltages as marked on the power board. Therefore, I think it is the mainboard with problem. But with my limited knowledge, and there is no visible damage on the board, I have no clue on which component may have problem causing no sound. Please help.

    Re: Samsung LN-S4051D no sound

    if you have not already, try unplug tv for 10 minutes, hold power button in on tv not remote for 30 seconds, plug tv back in and try it, can check in menu and make sure external speakers are not selected, so sound settings, internal mute set to off.

      can try factory reset, with tv off, hit mute-1-8-2-power, see if service menu comes on, go to reset and select, do NOT select anything else, you can really mess up a tv by choosing the wrong thing in service menu. if that one dont work try info-menu-mute-power.

        You checked whether there is sound in the headphones?

          can also plug and unplug the 3.5 headphone jack or any 3.5 male end several times, see if that helps.

            Not to exclude Hdmi cable ,Hdmi Switch on the main board? a way to check is if component audio in is ok or coaxial input tuner has audio ;hope you you know enough to make these checks, before assuming mainboard bad.

              There is no sound from the headphone port.

                I have just tried it and reset it. Still there is no sound.

                      I have just used an antenna as the input to it. But still I have picture but no sound.
                      Sorry, I forgot where I put my component cable and so I cannot check if the component input will have sound or not. Once I found it, I will try and report back.
                      Sorry, I do not understand your first sentence. I use Hdmi cable for my test and I have tried the two hdmi ports on the mainboard. Both have no sound.

                        You need to find the schematic for the main board (did I read bn97-00828A?)
                        Then you need to see how the sound signal travels thru the whole board, probably getting out of the main video processor IC, going thru amplifiers, mux/demuxers, probably more amplifiers and then to the earphone and the loudspeakers.

                        Have your TV set ON with a reasonable sound volume set.

                        Find exposed component leads on those stages and using a small earphone, connect GND from earphone to ground, and another lead (L or R) from the earphone to one needle and start touching those areas in the schematic going from start to end points I mentioned before, you should be hearing sound, very very low at first stages and increasing volume at later stages

                        See what you can with this

                          The information in post 12 will not work as the audio is digital going into the main audio output ic401.
                          Do you have an audio amp/receiver with audio input? if you do try connecting the audio out jacks to the amp or if it has an optical input try connecting the optical out from the tv to the amp, IC302 does the audio processing and outputs low level to the audio output rca jacks as well as spdif audio out. It also sends audio to the headphone amp ic303 which should give audio out to the headphones
                          Check the "Sound" menu to see if audio is not in internal mute mode muting the internal speakers.
                          Also go to "Sound" Melody and turn it ON and see if it plays audio when the tv is turned on or off.

                            Thanks for your comments.

                            I have tried with the audio out jacks. I got audio from the right channel only. At this time (with audio out jacks plugged in), then the earphone jack will have noise.

                            I tried with the optical jack as well. There is no audio from it. (From the menu of the tv, there is no setting for choosing the optical audio. But from my own tv, there is such setting).

                            For the "Sound" menu, I have already set the internal mute mode to off.

                            For the "Sound" Melody, I have already set it to ON, but there is no audio when the tv is turned on or off, even when I use the audio out jack and got sound from the right channel.

                            Any further comments or suggestions for me?

                              Do you have the service manual? IC302 process the audio so it seems to be passing ANY_SR_OUT, the reason there is no left audio could be due to your source. You should be getting headphone audio, but it might be muted, you would need to check the voltages on ic303 or Q303
                              To trace faults like this you need the proper equipment like a scope, without it your best bet is to replace the board.

                              I believe the melody is only played through the tv speakers, I have never checked if it plays through the aux out. Since all the switching is digitally controlled, it may even be a firmware issue.

                                      I would go ahead and try that reflow, I've seen it work before, just try to monitor the temperature, dont want to burn it up.

                                          Hi all

                                          I was just given a Samsung TV with the issue. I read various threads and videos and attempted the ribbon tape method to gain an image, but no luck.



                                          Symptom:
                                          No picture no sound.
                                          When I plug in the power cord, Backlight LED turns on for a half second and then turns off. The red LED next to the power button located center bottom flashes 2 or 3 times. When the power button is pressed after, it does the same thing.
                                          No sound at all.



                                          What I tried:
                                          1. I tried unplugging the left or right ribbon...

                                          Samsung UE60KU6079 backlight okay mainboard responsive, no picture, no sound
                                          by Ierwin
                                          Hello everyone,
                                          Ive got a UE60KU6079 on the workbench that is giving me some headaches trying to troubleshoot.
                                          The previous owner stated that there had been white dots on the screen which from the description sounded like some lenses fell of the backlight LEDs.
                                          He had opened the TV from the back, trying to get to the backlight, supposedly gave up, reassebled everything and gave the TV to me.
                                          I expected the worst like ripped COF cables or a cracked panel but could not find anything like that yet.
                                          Anyway I still fully expect that there has been something seriously damaged...

                                          by ChaosLegionnaire
                                          so i took out one of my spare gigabyte ep35-ds3r mobos from storage for use to do some cpu, ram and video card testing of stuff i bought from ebay and got for free from momaka. he bought 50 e8400 cpus for cheap from ebay some years ago and i decided to help him relieve him of some of his supply since he had waaaay too many!! what did we say about hoarding too much stuff and depriving others of them?! *cough* socialism *cough* lol!

                                          i had to blow some dust off the board and heatsinks with the datavac as i didnt clean it up before putting it in storage. after finishing...
