Re: Samsung UN60ES7500 HDMI failure

Thanks for the replies. Any way I can connect the component connectors to a box that would have multiple HDMI inputs so I can use a DVD player, Xbox, etc. and switch back and forth as needed?

I have a TV problem that I hope someone can help with. I have a Samsung UN60ES7500 where the HDMI connectors don't work but the component connector works. I would like to know if I can connect component cables to a switching box that has multiple HDMI connectors for DVD player, Xbox, etc. If not, can someone recommend a reasonably priced repair service to fix what I think is the main board. The repair sites I see on Ebay are $150 and up. I haven't pulled the back off to get the board number but the ones that could possibly fit are $175 and up - too much to risk on a 5-6 year old TV. Your thoughts/suggestions/comments...

Hi everyone. I am a retired senior who has access to two recycling centers. You would not believe the working electronics people discard. As I have access to these centers I often find TV's that are 2-4 years old, 55" to 65" with non-broken screens. I have no electronics training but I'm not afraid to take something apart to see if I can fix it. I have fixed a couple with problems like a loose power cord or bad caps. I hope to use this forum to help fix more complex problems. Many that I have fixed have been given to...
