New main board in, and the TV is working!

Thank you both again!

Re: Samsung pn58b860 Clicking

Tom66, and ptheman12345,

I just want to thank both of you!

I was able to follow these instructions and reproduce the same issue and get the test patterns to display by using a resistor to short out PSON to GND, and also jump pins 3 and 4 on the control board.

I just ordered a new main board and am hoping that it'll bring my TV back to life. If it wasn't for this guide I would have spent a lot more money on a new TV.

Thank you again!
Nick

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello! My name is Nick, I'm 32 and live in Chicago, IL.

I found this sight after searching for the symptoms I am seeing with my Samsung Plasma TV. Everyone here seems really bright and friendly, so I thought I'd join.

Sadly my TV doesn't have the obvious blown out caps, but hopefully with the knowledge on this board, I'll be able to figure it out.

Thank you to everyone who has already posted a wealth of information. I've learned a ton already, and am sure I'll learn a lot more.
