Samsung LA32R81BX/XTC Tuner Problem

[mikecarel]

Hi to all;

I have problem with my samsung LCD TV. Suddenly I miss some of my cable channels specially all highband cable channels. Tried to auto search again but it's still missing or incomplete(only low band cable channels are searchable), tried testing it to another TV's(old type TV) with cable tuner and it all has the cable channels that I need. Is this a known tuner problem with Samsung LCD TV(LA32R81BX/XTC). My tuner product number is TCPS3001PD32S(H) BN40-00083A.

Please help me to diagnose this problem further. I'm from Philippines, and using Asia as Region setting in my TV.


Tnx,

Mike

Just found the trouble in my tuner. I removed and opened  the tuner back cover and found too many cold solder, resoldering it fixes the problem.

 Tnx.
