20 Most Recent Dell W2600 26 in. LCD Television Questions & Answers

Google Dell W2600 blink codes. You're tv is doing a self diagnostic and letting you know what's wrong with by flashing the yellow light. Count how many time and if there is a sequence to it, then look it up.

Replace the Philips TDA8925ST "Class D" amplifier chip, readily available from Rich-Tech in Richmond, B.C. Canada.

>you can try this: Replace capacitor (10uF/50V) on small board >mounted to power supply next to mother board power connector.

didn't work for me. any other suggestions?

I have stand with this tv and like to have on wall we can exchange or if not I also like to sell it. Thanks please email me @ [email protected]

There should be and will be a fuse.

hi,hard to push bottons on TV manual controls usually happens because they are not use for a long time carbon accumulates inside the switches.You can just use a contact cleaner spray (windex) just spay it directly to the button and press repeatedly until dry..good luck1

i dont understand

There is no fix for the W2600. It has a power supply problem.
For sometime Dell was replacing the tv's with new ones, but don't think they are anymore. If you go to the Dell Forum and type in your tv you will see the amount of people that have had the same problem. Unbelieveable. As a matter of fact, Dell is not even making TV's anymore. Guess they gave up. They cannot be fix, cannot get the parts for it.

Take the back off - look at the Power Supply and check to see if any electrolytic capacitors are bulging. You normally see this at the very tops of the components. If this is the case - it costs nothing to repair it only the price of cheap electrolytic capacitors - as long as your capable of replacing them your self! If you have no idea on Electronics - don't atemp it as it can be dangerous as many components can hold a charge long after the TV has been switched off and you can get a shock

The tv have a power supply board is the causes and the problems.That the board,where the power a/c cord plug into it.Tries websites like Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a whole refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

Power supply problem, look for bulging capacitors, if you have never soldered or worked on any electronics, go to youtube and search tv repair and see the bad caps

Hello,

The issue you describe is consistent with a power supply board issue. This is the board where the AC goes to. This problem may have occurred as a result of irregular power supply, or excess power supply or power surge.

The TV is receiving current but cannot circulate or transfer the current to other necessary part of the TV because of the defective power supply board.

I do not think it needs replacement, rather some defective capacitors are causing this issue.
Open unit up and take a look at the power supply board.You will probably see one or more electrolytic filter capacitors that are bulged up in the top-not perfectly flat like the others.

The value of these capacitors will be different, most likely they will be somewhere around-820 to 2200uF/25 V( or /10V sometimes)

You can replace them with same values but I would recommend the voltage rating to be higher(like 35V for an original 25V) for reliability purposes.

What happens is,these bulged top capacitors will cause a low and unfiltered DC voltage=main board will malfunction(the relay will keep clicking until the caps are holding enough charge to bring the voltage up over a threshold point).

You can buy these capacitors at any Fry's or Radioshack store or you can order them online at vendors like "mcmelectronics.com"(look for electrolytic capacitors).
After replacing these capacitor(capacitors) most likely the normal operation will be restored.

Note: There may be also some other causes for this symptom ,like a defective T con board ,or main board,but the bulged top capacitors are the most common cause for this issue.

If you don't know about TV repairers, take the TV to the nearest repairman to fix the fault for you. Also, note that TV stores a lot of current, so wait a while before opening the TV back cover.

I hope this helps.

Good luck.

You could have changed a setting for the sound so that it is off or meant to come out of an output for external speakers instead of the television speakers. If that's not it, reply back.

Hi.

When the unit is in power save mode, the led is amber and the led amber light is solid.

If the led is of a different color, or if the led light is flashing, then the unit is not in Power Save mode, but it is probably defective.

If the TV is in power save mode (amber led and solid):

Use buttons on the side of TV either one of the channel buttons, or on-off button, or input button should wake up the TV unless faulty. Once TV is on, use input button to switch from TV to monitor. (see manual at page 6)

If TV is used as monitor and does not wake up when you use computer mouse or keyboard, check connection cable from computer to monitor.

If LED is not amber, or if LED is flashing, then the TV is faulty. In that case contact Dell at one of the numbers listed on the owners manual to arrange repair.

Here the manual.

Regards.

Are you trying to turn it on via the remote control? If so, turn the T.V. off at the set, and even go as far as pulling the plug. Wait half an hour, then plug in and switch on - I hope it works. For some reason, T.V's tend to "forget" their internal programming sometimes, and you have to completely switch them off for their memories to be reset. Good luck.

Very good TV. Since this is LCD there's not much that goes wrong with them except their internal power source. You will have to get it serviced. It is not something you can do without the expertise.

I have a 2600 with the same problem that is out of warrant. What I have been doing is unplugging it when I'm not using it and some times it turns on (sometimes it wont)
Im sure there has to be a quick fix on the internet.
