I am a computer guy and electronics hobbyist who found this forum while looking for a good picture of a electric fence controller board. A friend's electric fence controller grounded out and I saw a similar board here. It's great to have experts and others willing to share their knowledge and help out others.

Hello and merry Christmas to all. I love to play golf, hence my name is Maxfli. I am a high voltage Journeyman Lineman out of I.B.E.W. Local Union # 104 since 1986, sworn in, in 1977. I am new to tv repair and find it interesting. I built my own computer and water cooled it. It is not too hard to do, as most components are plug & play if compatible. I fixed my 2008 Samsung lcd tv.It had a starting problem. I replaced 3 bad caps 2 years ago, and still, all is well. Knock on wood or my head, same thing. My son is a trouble man for Eversource, 3rd generation Journeyman Lineman. He. brought me over a tv that his buddy was tossing out. It is a 2012 Samsung plasma smart tv It plays great for about a minute and shuts down. I only get a reading of 3.3 volts on pin 1 (PS_ON), and 5.30 volts on pin 2 (STBY), after the tv shuts down. I took out the SMPS and noticed rings around the solder on mosfets QS802 & QS804. I am going to resolder the board and see what gives. The tv is model# PN60E7000FFXZA. The SMPS is model # BN44-0051A, P60SW_CPN. I was wondering where to go, I think you all could tell me that, as to where I could find schematics, part numbers, and trouble shooting info for this tv. I could not believe how thin the boards are in this tv. My motherboard in my computer is at least twice as thick, if not more. The problem I see with this SMPS is that it is so thin, it flexes, and can't support the wait of the heat sinks which leads to solder and power problems, amongst other things. Any help in this matter would be deeply appreciated. As my Parents use to tell me, nothing is too good for you, and nothing is usually what I got. Thanks again and have a safe, prosperous new year.
