Samsung LE40R87BD LCD TV - relay clicking repeatedly but wont start
tv john:
We are talking about electrical safety here, after all you didn't hear about the house going on fire because the guy attempted to repair his Samsung tv. He fitted an inferior component which went on fire.
In the past I've seen dry joints,capacitors and on-off switches all going on fire,so get a tv engineer to repair your Samsung lcd tv.

Well said john!
I love this site and always try to help where I can, but I do question the wisdom of encouraging Joe public to bugger around in the back of their TVs, not only from a health and safety point of view (sure someone will get sued sooner than later) but also from a financial point of view as I don’t know of an engineer making much money these days, decades of knowledge given away for free to Joe public is that wise ????
PLEASE DISCUS!

Too true daz
Driving a P registered Astra estate is testimony to how much a tv engineer earns!
Not sure how much use to joe public our topics are-at least as to repairing things. Think they are more likely to get into some bother rather then complete a repair to the high standard required. Unfortunately with this trade there are no regulations regarding who should be allowed inside the back of a tv set full of dangerous voltages. Gas fitters and electricians have to be qualified and registered to do their job and coincidentaly seem to command greater respect (and greater charges) from the public then ourselves, yet the level and quantity of knowledge required in our trade is far greater.
OK had my gripe-on the plus side gotta say that this is a great site and those of us in the trade are always helpful to each other. The equipment we`re working on is becoming ever more complex and information scarcer, so we`re going to need to stick together and share what info there is to have any chance of paying the bills, whilst (reluctantly) accepting that this is an open site.
Regards
John.

Set now up and running. It was a case of a corrupted eeprom. Thanks John for the info.
For anyone with the same problem the procedure is as follows.
On this model the eeprom in question is IC 1803 (24C256) 8 pin smd and is located on the underside of the main board near the common interface. The clock and data pins are pins 5 and 6 and are identifiable by the 100 ohm smd resistors connected to each of them. Fit a shorting link (on long wires) between the pins. Reassemble the chassis. Switch on and then remove the short. Bring the set out of standby. Now access the service mode as follows-
Using the remote control, switch to standby, press info, menu, mute and power. The set should start and display the service menu. Using scroll keys select item 8 and enter by scrolling right. Select "tuner" and set to auto. Revert to previous screen by pressing menu. Now scroll to "reset" and enter by scrolling right. The set will revert to standby. Power back on and tune in stations. Thanks again tv john for the information.
John.
