Samsung 40" tv not coming on

Samsung 40" standby button clicking on and off but no picture coming on. Started couple of weeks ago taking about 5 minutes to come on, but now will not come on at all. Sounds like it is coming on with the click sound but then clicks again and nothing, this continues either until tele comes on or i switch off by plug and give up.

I would check out the power supply module for bad caps with bulging tops. Check DC voltages at the output connectors, you should have 5, 12, 24V.

Testimonial: "This seems to be a common fault on these tv's. I probably wont attempt to fix myself even though the warranty has ran out. Thanx "

Hi, I have just started having the same problem, fortunately I took out insurance but looking around the web this seems to be a common problem that Samsung refuse to acknowledge.

Hi,
with the fault worsening slowly it points to failing capacitors on the power supply Board which is not uncommon for this brand, there are many repair kits available for this brands power supply boards if you feel you are capable of fitting them try Here:

or you could consider replacing the whole panel, a bit more expensive but less technical expertise required, shop Jimmy is the largest supplier of replacement boards:

Samsung 40" flat screen looses sound

this problem started on my LN-S4051D a couple of years ago. eventually the sound stopped working altogether. I then started using my surround sound speakers for the TV via optical out but soon that stopped working as well. I recently took the TV to a repair shop who said that the main board is bad and needs to be replaced. Labor plus parts was going to cost me $400. I said no thanks and paid for the estimate. Good luck.

I have a Samsung series 5 530 and the picture only recently is too big for the screen. also tried everything in the manual. Just started a few weeks ago.

The picture size may have been changed on the remote. Try the button that says pic size or something close to that. It must have been switched to a mode which zooms in the picture. That should fix it.

TV clicks constantly, as if trying to turn on/off.

Probably a bad main board or T-CON board or both. If you're trying to fix yourself, try disconnecting the cable (LDVS) from the small board (T-CON) at top center of the LCD panel and see if it still cycles. Note, be very careful with that cable, it is very delicate. If it still is cycling off and on, then it is probably the main board. A slight chance it may be the power board also.

Sound, but no picture. Standby light blinking 5 times

A few weeks ago my set started flashing to a black screen. Now a couple of weeks later, i have no picture, but the set turns on and i have sound. The standby light is flashing. I purchased the set in 2000 so it is seven years old. This is the first problem. Could it be all three of the bulbs? Could it be all three of the bulbs? no as you say that sound is ok that means your power supply &high voltage section is ok. please check chroma ic luminance section or system control section stand by ckt ihanks
