Re: Any good UK suppliers ?

Samsung LE37R88BD

Thanks for both info and offers. Much appreciated. This really is a superb forum!

Today (Wednesday) have just received package of all the caps. I needed from UK eBayer semtech1

ALL in stock, ALL Panasonic and combined postage just £1.25.
Really fast service too. [No connection etc.]

(In just a couple of cases package size was x2 or x3 but not mega-money anyway)

Am now going to replace all caps. on power board as have noticed a couple starting to bulge ominously....

Was looking for some replacement caps for a 37" Samsung LCD TV.

Wasted 25 mins searching and selecting on mouser.com website only to find they wanted to charge £12 delivery on £5.80-worth of caps.

Then wasted [U]another[/U] 25 minutes searching and selecting on RS website only to find that about 75% of what I needed was "Out of stock".

Anyone in UK found a well-stocked and non-rip-off supplier ??Was looking for some replacement caps for a 37" Samsung LCD TV.

Have tried the above advice from this forum but it doesn't work, it just switches the TV back on.

Model : LE37R88BD

Any other suggestions as to how to access Factory Reset ?

Hello all.
Looks like a very useful "reservoir of knowledge".
I must admit I found it when searching for online help with fixing a sick Samsung TV (no surprises there ...).
I'm more used to repairing/rebuilding classic cars and motorcycles (my own) but I'll have a go at almost anything. Even rebuilt much of a derelict C16th cottage !

Just got to get used to those Youtube videos with American cousins saying "sodder" when they are soldering !!
