Background info. - I am currently viewing on an old 26" CRT TV due to lack of funds. I found a Samsung PS-50C96HD on Gumtree for £50 with sound but no picture. Digging here made it look possible to fix so a possible bargain buy. I understand more than your average Joe but need help as fiddling with TVs is new to me.
I have downloaded the Service Manual. http://elektrotanya.com/samsung_f30a.../download.html Overall Wiring diagram attached below.
Observations/findings
I have not yet started to disassemble beyond removing the back cover.
No obviously damaged components in view.
When powered on the Blue light comes on for about a second then goes off.
A single click (relay?) is heard after about a second.
No picture.
Should anything light up on the front panel when a remote is used? Nothing seen.
3 fuses found and checked. 2 on SMPS board OK. 1 on Y-DRIVE board next to the power lead connector CN5707 is blown. Marked 3.6A.
What next?
I do not have a 3.6A fuse but I do have a 3A which is physically bigger but could be temporarily bodged in. Should I do that with fingers crossed just to see if it works for a short while?
Thanks in advance, Paul.
