Hi! My samsung lcd LA-32A330 takes a few minutes to turn on. We bought it on July 8. 2008. Hope you could help us. Thank you

Hi Ramdatt Sookchan, I could have a problem with the LCD panel, try disconnecting one of the Flex tapes from the T-Con board to the LCD panel and see if half of the image appears, do the test by disconnecting one and then reconnecting and removing the other
If a screen appears in any of the tests, the problem is in the LCD panel

Hola Ramdatt Sookchan, podria tener un problema en el panel LCD, prueba desconectar una de las cintas Flex de la placa T-Con al panel LCD y f?jate si te aparece la mitad de la imagen, haz la prueba desconectando una y despues reconectando y sacando la otra
Si en alguna de las pruebas te aparece media pantalla, el problema esta en el panel LCD
Prueba y comenta

Check the caps in the power supply first.
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, blown fuses, poor solder jopints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed SAMSUNG monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.

Most common failures in SAMSUNG and other LCD monitors are due to bad caps, that will be the first thing to look for inside. Please see SAMSUNG albums so you will know what to look for inside.

Hello,

You will need to take a small flat blade screwdriver and insert it between the two halves of the case and gently pry the two apart. There are latches around the case that just need a little pressure to release. Once you get a few released the rest will pop open as you pull the halves apart. We have some pictures posted on our web site at: www.ccl-la.com Look in the monitor repair section. THere are several repair guides for different brands with pictures of what the release latches look like. If you have any questions just call us at: 318-447-9040

Please check/ replace T-Con board (lcd controller board) that is located at top center of lcd panel rear side. It would be covered with metal shield and after removing that metal cover, you will access it.
Thanks.

Hello,

It sounds like you have a monitor with a common problem. After a few years some LCD monitorswill blow a power supply. The problem is caused by parts calledcapacitors overheating in the confined space of the monitor. If you aregood at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix the problem. Check out a few pictures on my web site www.ccl-la.com/badcaps.htm You can take the back cover off your monitor and look for the bad parts,replace any that look like the pictures and your monitor should workfine.We just posted a repair guide showing how to remove the case ansreplace the parts. The capacitors do need to be installed with thecorrect + and -connections, note the stripe on the old one and insert the new one thesame way. If you don't want to try the repair yourself we offer a repair service for $35 plus shipping.

I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.
