If someone doesnt know what 'shorting' means, do you really think that person should be trying to repair a tv, even if it's his own. FFS pay the money and get someone qualified to do it. The internet has produced a load of DIY idiots not just in electronics but most trades

A tad harsh I think....
I think the chap knows what shorting means, but was looking for some context or a procedure to follow.
The fact he's changed the caps and got the polarity right tells me he's not a complete 'DIY idiot' - we all have to learn from scratch don't we??

Hi, Sin-C5,
It's just that this one has been bubbling since failed V2's, and some folks think it tedious.
Me - well, switched to things more interesting some years ago -Chris.

This post still has its use. I googled this very problem yesterday morning and found this thread.
My TV is 3 years and 2 months old. Prompted by the poster who rang Samsung and got a free repair, I thought I'd try my luck. This morning Samsung's engineer called and tried to fix the problem, he couldn't apparently because "whole board needs replacing". As a result the Samsung Engineer has taken my TV away for repair - if they cannot repair because "that particular board might not be available" then I will get a new TV.
My point in posting is to let people know it is still worth a call to Samsung if you encounter this problem with your LE40R88BD. Like I said....my set is over 3 years old and I'm getting a free repair or replacement.
Many thanks to this forum and to everyone who posted on this thread. I'm extremely grateful for your help.
