Re: Another Samsung Syncmaster 245B - Solved!

Hi Folks,

Thanks for your terrific help! And thanks for your wonderfull forum too!!
I inspected RB805, RB806 and RB807. It appeared TB805 was open / dead.

Many, many thanks!

Hi everyone,

First off, congrats with your terrific forum!
Let me first introduce a little: I'm from Belgium, have fair electrical skills, but only 'some basic' electronic skills.
