Problem with the Samsung LN-S4051D 40 in. LCD Television

Will not turn on or off


By sonnyd405 on Dec 05, 2008
where can I purchase new IP Board (power board) and I PCB Board (main board)

  1. Hi guys,

    I just replaced these 4 capacitors with Radioshack (272-1032). My TV won't start though. It is still making same clicking sound with 4 blinks of red light. Has anyone else observed this? Any solutions? Opinions? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Nick
  1. i have a samsung 19inch syncmaster 940w after storing it fro six months i opted to used it but when i did try to fine tune it it freezes and woulnt turn off so i pull the power cord and have difficulty turning it on i after several tries it turn own but wouldnt work on the remote or buttons so i did pull again the power cord and fron then on it never turn on even the lights.nothing.what could it be
    i hope some will help.thanks

  1. My 40" Samung LN-S4051DX had this same problem. Kept taking longer and longer to turn on eventually taking over 30 minutes, continually cycling through the power up sequence. Finally got to 60+ minutes and would not come on. Following the information from other posts, took the unit apart and sure enough the 1000uf caps had bulged tops and we're blown. In fact one of the ribbon cables that runs between the IP Power board and the Main board near the caps had a burn mark on it. Changed the four capacitors (as mentioned by others, it was the same four capacitiors, CS806, CM811, CM812, and CM 817) and the unit is back working normal again. Less than $7.00 for the parts. Good thing. I tried calling several places trying to get a replacement IP Power board before coming across this site and was told the power supply is discontinued and equivalent replacment boards have been discontinued as well. Hoping to get a few more years out of this set as it's only two years old.

    Also, I found a full service manual for free online at this location,
    http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/40021/Samsung_LNS3251D.html
    . It inlcudes the 26', 32, and 40" models. The files are zipped using the 7zip utility which you can get for free at http://www.7-zip.org/ .

  1. I have the same problem, but my tv is only 14 months old. I believe my model is Samsung LN-T4661F. I would hit the "on" button and it would click for several minutes, then it would start. It did it for 3 days, and today it won't start.
  1. My Samsung 40" TV did the exact same thing described here...

    It's the easiest thing in the world to fix.

    Go to Radio Shack and get 1000uF 36V Capacitors (they will be bigger than the originals)

    Locate the capacitors based on the photos in this blog.

    If you have never done this practice on an old piece of electronics. Remember...keep the soldering iron with a light coat of solder on it.

    Replace the caps and its done.....will take 1 hr... 2 if you need to practice.

Try this for new power supply - http://www.discount-merchant.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1029657-SAMSUNG&Click=35. Is the red LED blinking 4 times, hear relay click and wait, then another cycle? I developed this problem yeaterday. No visable damage or discoloration of components.

  1. I have ordered and am waiting for service manual download from https://www.manualsparadise.com/AboutOurStore.do for my LNS4051DX/AXX. I hope this helps give some measurements to do.

  1. Samsung LNS4051D - I replaced power supply board parts CM806, 811, 812 & 817, all 1000 uf 10v capacitors, three had their tops bulged up slightly that I missed on initial visual inspection. After seeing the reports of problems with these caps, I replaced them with Radio Shack part 272-1032, 1000 uf, 35v. They are slightly bigger, but fit OK. TV is working fine now. Cost was 4 x $1.59 = $6.36 plus the time. I saved between $100 to 300 in the process of either replacing the board or getting the unit serviced. Well worth the effort and experience.

I had the same problem. I work for a mother board manufacturer w/offices in New Jersey and brought mine into our engineering lab after Samsung told me tough luck. Anyway, one of my engineers fixed it in 10 minutes. Essentially, he replaced the 1000uF capacitors on the power supply board with 2 cent capacitors instead of the 1 cent capacitors that had blown out on the CHEAP SAMSUNG POWER SUPPLY BOARD. You can tell the caps are blown via visual inspection. The top of the cap should be perfectly flat and a blown cap will be convex on top. Unfortunately, there are also 2500 uF caps by the same cheap manufacturer on the board as well and we don't stock that value for our products. According to my engineer, those will most likely blow next since he replaced the others with better caps, but I'm getting samples of those and will replace them shortly. After that this piece of **** should last me at least another 2 yrs! It's been working for about a week now w/no problems. Hope this helps.

Had the same problem with my LA40R71BDX. After stumbling upon this thread (luckily) I've saved myself at least AU$500. The same capacitors described by everyone else (CM806, 811, 812 & 817) were bulging and two had black stains on the top. Replaced those with 1000uf 16v capacitors (as the 35v ones i'd prev bought were too big) screwed it all back together and presto! worked first go! Thanks to everyone on this page, you've been great! Oh and by the way, if you are thinking about doing this and haven't done ANYTHING like this before (i.e. Soldering, electrical work) I suggest you take the risk. I had no experience before this and it was a breeze. There is a youtube video on how to replace these exact caps on a 52 inch LCD samsung... Just search samsung tv repair. Thanks again!

I just did the same thing, replaced the 4 infamous capacitors, and no dice, picture turns off after a few minutes, and the sound is still on. Unplugged the tv to take it out of standby mode, turned it on in the morning, seemed to work, for a few minutes that is... Any other advice? Maybe it surged from a recent power outage? The caps cm806,17,11,12 were not bulging, but I changed them anyways. .

Thanks everyone for the helpful tips on the bad capacitors. I opened the back of my LNT4042HX and there were the bad capacitors plain as day CM806, 811, 812 & 817 plus i had 1 more bad one # 807 which the top was bulging, so i replaced all 5 with 1000uF 35v capacitors from Radio Shack. It took about an hour to do the entire job and my TV was up and running again. Or should I say turning off & on like its suppose to "With The Power Button" ;) Life is good once again :D

Thanks guys, my Samsung LNT 4061 had the same problem, after 1 year and a half. I called Samsung and they told me that I was on my own (CANADA). After reading the Forum i bought the capacitors 7.25 dollars. replaced it and it is working again.

SO GLAD I STUMBLED ON THIS THREAD!!!

Same problem, clicking sounds...no picture on my beloved Samsung LCD tv. I opened it up, and sure enough, those same four capacitors were blown on mine as well (including the burn-mark on a nearby ribben). Uncanny. I've never dealt with this sort of thing before, but on close inspection ONLY these 4 capacitors were not flat on top, and three of them had black marks on them as well. Went to Radio Shack, bought the replacements described above, as well as a $8 solder iron kit (which came with solder as well) and in about 30 minutes had replaced all four capacitors. There are lots of helpful how-to YouTube videos on how to solder if you have never done it. My TV is back to perfect working order AND I learned how to solder. Not bad for a days work!

Just Letting you guys know that I had the same problem with the same 40"Samsung. I have owned it for 2 years and I just finished changed the capacitors about ten minutes ago, It worked like a dream, my kids are playing the WII as I sit here typing. Thank you so much for the solution. An $8.00 dollar fix instead of several hundered and ten or more days out at the repair shop. Thank You

I had the same problem and found a board for 112 dollars shipped on the internet. Two days after I ordered the board the TV is on and working. The IP board # BN44-00134A for a LNS4501 samsung. I purchased it from partstore.com.

I had the exact same problem with my LN-S4051D samsung LCD TV. I was super excited to hear that everyone had been able to fix theirs. So i went and got myself a soldering iron and some rosin core solder. I could only find 1000UF 25v capacitors which are better than the **** ones that were in it. (and yes the originals were convex at the cap and blown with the burn mark on the ribbon.) I replaced cs 806, cm817, cm811, and cm812. I was super happy to see if the fix worked as the replacing of the capacitors seemed to go off without a hitch. Unfortunately my happiness and excitement was soon replaced with sadness and disbelief. It was doing the exact same **** upon testing. Any suggestions?

I have a burned out capacitor as well; however, it has 2200 uf (10V) on it. It also has 115 degrees C as a rating. I'm nervous about buying different capacitors at Radio Shack...what should I do?
Also, I just noticed ONE capacitor that was bulged/burned; the others looked fine. Should I replace all the other capacitors as well?
