Re: Yet Another Samsung 245BW - Power Board BN44-00195A - No display, solid blue ligh

Ah okay! I just saw a youtube... i gotta use the pump thing to remove the solder first eh :-p trying now!


Oops Just ripped off some of the circuit board.. NOOOOO

Guess I'm buying a new board... Sigh!

Whelp I just soldered on three new capacitors that might've looked maybe SLIGHTLY blown ... no luck ... still a blue power light, but black screen ... Radio shack only had 35V varities of the capacitors... but i made sure to match the MF reading (2x1000 and 1x2200 is what i replaced)

I have the resistors but... i dont even know how im supposed to keep the solder melted long enough to un-bend the leads from the board... lol ... i cant get the damn resistors off!!

hey Vhaos......

Wow... I should've paid way more attention in electronics class.

I came across this thread as one of my 245BW's that I paid $400 so handsomely in 2007 has finally gone black screen (With solid Blue Light).

While I have a soldering iron, I certainly am quite novice at all things electronics.

I'll be cracking this thing open tomorrow morning to take a look.

I was wondering ... are there folks on the East Coast (New Jersey) that offer 245BW repair?...
