Horizontal dark Lines

The problem with my Samsung PCL5415RB 54 in. Rear Projection TV is that sometimes a dark lines shows on screen. It looks that they show when a scene of the presentation changes. Some times there is only one line and other times shows more than one. The wide measure of the lines are variable and sometimes looks like moving according to the different moves of the objects or persons in the show presentations. A technician told me that the problem is with a video board but I don't know which one. I have the service manual. If any one can tell me what is the problem and identify the video card, I can buy it and change it myself. Thanks for any help that you can give me and I apologize for my poor english. My first language is spanish. Regards, Luis Soto

    I paid $125.00 to a technician for just check the TV. He is asking me for $800.00 to fix it but I will not pay that sum. I prefer to buy a new LCD tv. The thing is that I will like to have my Samsung tv fix. I discovered that when I decreased the brightness the dark horizontal lines disappears or just show less. Something new that's happening now is that it is showing convergence problems. I don't know if it is for the same reason with the horizontal lines. I will appreciated any help that can help me with this problem.
    Thanks, Luis Soto

It is a simple problem. 1 it is due to low voltage at your home 2it might be due to loose contact near cable or its socket. 3 it might be due to loose contact in tv near tuner. in my opinion 100% there no problem in video board regards

There are a couple of boards that can cause this problem. You cannot simply say, yes this is your problem without first looking at the TV set. Yes, it could be the video board, but which one? Oh my crystal ball says the one that's bad. Get the point. I wish it was that easy my friend. It simply is not that easy as this. As a matter of fact, authorized repair people would sub out the digital board probably first. If that did not work, then maybe the video processor board. Once you buy a board, it is yours to keep. It could turn out to cost you three to four times what it would cost if you called out an authorized repair shop to diagnose your problem. Good Luck

    Your problem is the video board or a loose connection on the same.

SAMSUNG PCL5415RB 54" IS NOT TURNING ON

The main idea is to find the short circuit in any area of the tv. The most common suspicious areas are:
  • IC convergence and +/-20v
  • Horizontal output
  • make sure you B+ is around the power supply area.
if all these ideas are familiar to you pretty sure you can repair the unit. If something is strange to you. get an estimate in a workshop to make sure is economical to repair to you, Any help we can provide you after you start digging into the set please post it and we will be helping you.
