Re: No power on Samsung LN40B500P3FXZA, but Caps look ok?

I have the same unit Samsung LN40B500P3FXZA no power led, however the back lights do come on. I removed the back and have performed all the test tips so far on this model from this site. Great stuff appreciate it.

Ok I've tested V at 29/30 connection and randomly across the pwr board, they are a little low, the 13V are 12.59 to 12.94v, and the 5.3v is 4.96 to 5.29v. tested the 2 fuses and the fets by the big caps no continuity. no caps popped.
Plug in the a/c and the back-lights come on.
Went...
