Power Supply Card Replacement

Will Samsung's BN96-00249A power supply card work as a replacement for an AKAI's PDP4294 (which was manufactured by Samsung for them)?

Anonymous Dec 07, 2007

I too have the entire card which was replaced. Perhaps it could contribute to the repair of other units out there?

Remove the back cover. The switch mode power supply board is in the middle at the top. It's a large board. Along the top edge of the board the model number will be printed. It should be a bn96 00249a but check to be sure before ordering one. Take special note of the 5 fan headers located on the lower left of the board - all unused. Explains why so many of them have failed. Mine has been dead for almost a year now. I know which part on the board is bad, but so far, have not been able to locate a place that will sell me the IC. I'm not paying $300.00 for the whole board when all it needs is a $15.00 IC.

Change the 2 orange 400V capacitors located on the power board in the upper center, once the back of the TV is off. They are C523 and C524. Digikey has the parts. .022 Poly cap 400V

I did this and my picture came back on. It cost $6.

the replacement of that board is easy since it is all plug-ins and you can find that power supply in quite a few places,
Just google that part number.
Hope this help and good luck

With no picture but only sound on my Akai PDP 4294

Try replacing the Y-sustain board. Might have to replace buffers attached to it too. Have you had it diagnosed? My picture went out and I replaced the power supply board. Worked for 2 weeks then acted up again. Got a different power supply board. Same thing 2 weeks later. Was told it now was a bad Y-sustain board. Replaced y-sustain board. Worked OK for about 2 hours then started having picture issues. Not the same issues before power supply or y-sustain problem. Was told that you might have to replace buffers attached to y-sustain when you replace y-sustain. Tired of dealing with it and only watch a couple hours a day, so I don't always have the problem unless I watch the TV for a long time. Will eventually replace buffers to see if that works. I would definitely find a place that gives free estimates or close to free to get a technician diagnosis. Then you can decide if you are able to do the work yourself.

No Picture on PDP4294

Normally the sets have seperate power supplies for the input/main logic board and the HV which drives the panal (could be 2 parts on the same board). It sounds like you have a problem with the power board that drives the panal and HV. Check to see if any fuses are blown, if the fuse is blown, you can try replacing it, but if it continues to pop, then the main fets that drive the HV are shot and will need to be replaced.

Will not turn on, only blinking green light

It is a rough gamble to speculate but if all you have on the PS +5v and +3.3v it's obviously toast.. It would help at this point to have an adjustable dc supply and scope now to trace yest the remainder of the set but for the cost of a good scope you could buy the Tv new... Just going to have to go with your instincts on this one. I could add that usually in lcd cases where the supply has failed it's simply isolated to the supply.
Good Luck!
