Samsung LE40R88BD Clicking Relay

<< < (7/30) > >>

hi try this
Thanks all, it's now working. Owe you all - big time. This is as detailed as I can go ( after replacing 4 caps ). The critical part seems to be the delay ( see point 3 ), thanks to Mike for this ( my name's Mike - a lot them around ).

1. Short out the eeprom pins 5 & 6 ( the two legs with the resistors ).
2. Turn on the power.  - Instead of the usual noticeable relay click, you get a faint click, the backlight stays off, nothing else happens.
3. Wait around 1-2 secs ( anything longer than this NEVER seemed to work ).
4. Remove the short
5. Press info,menu,mute, then power - In that order individually, one at a time.
6. TV should come on with noise picture and the service menu.
7. Navigate to reset to go back to factory defaults and you're away....

Thanks,

I've been trying this for a little while now, the relay clicking has stopped but no picture as of yet. Does the picture come on as soon as you release the short on the eprom or after you have completed the sequence on the remote control?

Thanks again

I have just replied on another thread for the LE40R87D that has the same issues, it is over 2 years old, out of warranty and they have recognised a fault with them.
  I rang samsung today and they are repairing it free of charge, I only had to mention the clicking noises tryimg to start tv.
