I replaced the 4 capcitors on the panel and the TV

Had the same problem with this model.
1) Open up the TV by undoing all the screws - they are what I think are torx screws, but any decent screwdriver set should have the correct attachment.
2) The smaller brown board where the power supply comes into had 4 1000 pf 'popped' eletrolytic capcitors - the tops were bulging, a sure sign that they have blown, although it's not always the case - I would suggest replacing bulged ones first and test the others if this doesn't do the trick.
3) I replaced the capcitors - delsoldered and resoldered new ones in place. I got a set of capacitors from Maplins for £9.99 but you could probably get them cheaper elsewhere. I didn't have an exact match for the voltage but I replaced 16v ones with 25v and it seems quite happy.

Hope this helps. Be aware there are high voltages present in capicitors even when you've unplugged the mains. You should always discharge them using a shunt resistor.

take the back of the tv off there is probally 4 blown capacitors on the board on the left,change the 4 capacitors you can tell there blown they will be bulging. I had the same problem, changed the capacitors and tv works fine

Look at the power supply for burnt parts, bad capcitors, poor solder joints.

Please post back what you find.

I opened the power supply unit, and found two blown capacitors (swollen, and oozing black stuff) It is easy to fix, if you keep track of where the screws go, because there are so many.
1) open tv, and tape screws where they go
2) open power supply unit, and check if any capacitors are swollen, and oozing black junk, even if its just a litte
3) if you find blown capacitors, look on the back of the board, and find out what hole, or socket the leads go into, they all have a number.
4) with a DEsoldering gun, remove the solder from back of board, its easy, trust me. I'm no tv repair man, but even I could do it.
5) write down how many microfarads the capcitor(s) are, and the corresponding hole number.
6) find replacement capacitors online, and solder back into psu
7) re assemble tv, and enjoy.

last time I had seen these syptoms on Philips plasma it was bad panel. Replace tv panel is too expensive to replace.

Could be a blown capcitor as well but if the fuse is blown and you replace it and it blows again you gto capcitors and resisters haing issues as well. the back cover has snaps where your talking about and should pop off with a little play.

Good luck on your tv repair!

there could be a fuse or a capcitor blown out in the unit it would be hard form e ot tell just by the description you are giveing me but i would start at the fuse and look from there. I hope this helps.

This sound is a capcitor pop and this could be in the power supply unit itself. The glass could be a fuse that took the brunt from the capcitor pop.

1. Unplug the unit and do not plug it in.
2. if its under warrenty take it in please!
3. if its not under warrenty and you know eletronics verify what cap popped and replace that and the fuse.
4. if you do not know about eletronics this work would cost you around $150 for the wrok done.

Good luck I hope this information helps you!!

My TV had a simular issue...delayed power-on with repetitive clicking. I found a post at Techreport.com about bad capacitors on the power board. This and other Samsung models seem to have an issue with these components failing. I replaced the capcitors myself last night, and the tv is now working perfectly. Cost me about $15 in parts and an hours time. Hope this helps!

You need a higher capcitor as far as voltage if you got a sag, A power supply making noise is not a verry good sign period and this is dcomming from a eletronics engineer! There is something wroung with the circuit. I would sugges changing out the power supply unit due to a possiable problem with the rails.
