Re: Where to get Samsung parts...none on Ebay, Jimmy, etc..

I'm jealous, I can't find a board.. sears Canada and sears US are different, can't get it shipped here and they don't have it in Canada. argh. I'm trying to repair the board, so far replaced the mosfets, no luck.

I replaced the fets with the same part number as was written on them. Toshiba 30g124. I don't have enough experience to identify which ones are the driver chips that you're referring too. I've attached 3 pictures, one of the back of the board, one of the front, and one of the fets including 2 I replaced. If you could point me to the driver chips, that would be very helpful.
Thanks!...

Thanks for trying.
I made the attempt to replace the fets I found shorted, but to no avail. I don't have the technical expertise to trouble shoot this board short of just replacing all the components. If I had more time I might, but my wife and the kids want our only TV back and working sooner than later. Now I have to figure out what to buy, obviously it won't be Samsung, I'm done with them.

Here are some pictures of the board. One I pulled off a site that sells them, and the other is a close up of the info off the board taken from my phone.
Thanks for looking!...

I have a Samsung pn51d550C1fxzc plasma (2 yrs old) that I believe has a bad x-main board. I was going to replace the whole board, but I can't source one, everyone is out of stock. So I've been reading through advice, troubleshooting methods, and common problems.

It's my first time troubleshooting a circuit board, but I think I've narrowed the issue down to my X-Main board, and one of the mosfets on it (toshiba 30g124 to-220) after a little multimeter testing. I'm a newb at using a multimeter, but I think I found a short.
I was just wondering if anyone has had similar experience...

Re: Looking for a new TV, what is a reliable,durable brand?LCD,LED or PLASMA?

I love the picture on my Samsung Plasma, what I don't love that is it died after only 2 years. I would stay away from them, the parts they've decided to use just don't hold up.

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello,
Joined the forum while searching how to fix my Plasma. Plasma not fixed yet, but I've found some useful information here for sure.
Nice to find a place with so many helpful people.

Re: Samsung PN51D550C1F died, won't turn on, clicking

I was wondering if I got a different revision of the same board, would that work or would I end up frying something else. It seems there are lots of Rev.1.2 around, but mine is 1.3

I'm in the same boat for the same tv, anyone have a source for the x-main for this one?
