Thank you Hamie and Shinju for you reply. I really appreciate it.

Re: Samsung tv blinking panel light

Thank you for you reply budm. Voltage across the large capacitor is 158v when ps is not jumpered. With the ps jumpered, the voltage goes to 383v. Is it your opinion the main board is bad?

Samsung TV LNT3242H Power board BN44-00192A (MK32P3)

Problem: No picture, no back light, no sound, just front blinking red light

I have been looking at this tv for about a week now as a novice, and can't find anything wrong. I have tested all caps visually and with ESR and cap meter. Can't find any bad ones. I have tested all diodes some in circuit, some out if they tested positive both ways, but found no bad ones. I replaced the large resistor RM801 with a 2w but the original was not bad. It had that glue crap all over it and the caps next to it, but had no carbon...

Hello all you brainiacs. In reading many of the discussions, I'm amazed with the knowledge. I wish I had the electronic knowledge that abounds here. But I'm just a want-to-be.
