Title: Samsung LE40R88BDX
Post by: sinclairtv on August 07, 2012,13:52:03

I've got no sound on this set although headphones are working. Customer was using headphones and when he removed them, there was no sound. The on screen volume control has a headphone logo so I think its stuck in headphone mode although there is no setting to turn speakers off. Most of the sound settings are 'greyed out'. I've tried a service reset and replaced the eeprom. Headphone skt seems okay as headphones can be taken out and in okay. Any ideas or is it a new panel. Tx

Hi,

I think you will find there are some switching contacts inside the headphone socket. A squirt of WD40 into the socket might help. I has a similar fault a while ago, can't remember model though! I actually removed the headphone socket, stripped it down and cleaned it.

I told the customer to buy a MP3 type amp and I coupled that up for him.
