Re: Samsung LCD TV - LNS4051 power on problem

UPDATE: After 3 weeks of smacking the TV it doesn't work anymore and there's no picture when we turn it on. We're thinking of replacing either the mother board or the circuit/power supply board?

Re: Samsung LCD TV - LNS4051 power on problem

Ok p-dog you fixed your set by jiggling, or reseating, the ribbon cables. I am glad that worked for you.

Well just an update on my TV. Samsung LN-T4071 FX/XAA , original post is a few above this one. Samsung customer support is not the greatest, I think they forget it's OK to empathize with people and not ONLY read from scripted replies. When I escalated things to "Executive Customer Relations&quo...
