Hey guys !

New around here, tried a bit of diag on my own before venturing here, but have not had any luck so far. Hoping someone can shed some insight as to whether or not this TV is a lost cause or not.

TV is a PN50A450P1D Samsung Plasma

Symptoms:
Powered on the TV after it sat for a couple of weeks, after the boot tone heard a loud pop. When the TV booted, the screen picture was as seen in the photos below. This is with my PS4 hooked up, same type of picture presents itself with all inputs and menus.

I ran the pictures tests by disconnecting...

Re: Samsung PN50A450P1D Pink Screen Problem

Sorry to revive an old thread.. but I have a similar issue to this but due to the picture distortion as well as the colour. I wanted to confirm the diagnosis was indeed the X-main board as well.

I have the same TV as the listed on above: PN50A450P1D.

The TV spent its time off for the prior week, went to flip it on and as it booted heard a loud pop and the picture looked like the images attached.

Found a popped capacitor on the power board which was replaced, but the TV still has a distorted...

Hey guys !

New here, and realtively new to TV repair.
Purchased a used Samsung PN50A450P1D for the love of older plasmas for gaming.

Looking forward to working on it with the wealth of info on this forum !
