What size of capacitor do

open the back and look. Mine has 4 10volt 1000uf capacitors that I plan on replacing tomorrow. I'm going back with 16volt 1000uf high temp capacitors so they don't go bad again.

It won't switch on! The stand by light just keeps

The power supply may be bad. Sometimes, it's just a capacitor or two that needs to be replaced. Take it in for service if you don't know how to check the board yourself. Good luck!

Television went blank but still has sound turned

Were you watching television through antenna or video through HMDI or video RCA cable when it happens? If it happened only once, then I wouldn't think that's a serious problem. Most TV firmwares today are based on complex linux OS. Would expect a software glitch or two.

Check whether your TV manufacturer had any firmware update.

Why am I not getting sounds on my TV?

Possible that the audio selection is not the right mode, the audio output IC is faulty or the speakers are faulty.
Use a audio test signal to confirm

TV will not go on,just a constant clicking noise.

This is a comon problem with the Samsung LCD HDTV on the Power Board.

You can repair or replace faulty parts on PS board.

When checking the capacitors, If they are slightly rounded on the top where the X is, the cap is defective. See the Youtube below.

Because the Samsung LNS4051D would not turn on and the power
LED would blink 4 times and the relay would click and this
would repeat again and again. I replaced power supply board
parts CM806, 811, 812 & 817, all 1000 uf 10v capacitors,
three had their tops bulged up slightly that I missed on
initial visual inspection. After seeing the reports of
problems with these caps on
http://www.fixya.com/support/t1336881-will_not_turn_or_off ,
I replaced them with Radio Shack part 272-1032, 1000 uf, 35v.
They are slightly bigger, but fit OK. TV is working fine now.
Cost was 4 x $1.59 = $6.36 plus the time. I saved between
$100 to 300 in the process of either replacing the board or
getting the unit serviced. If you are not comfortable
replacing components which means using a soldering iron, you
can replace the power circuit board, available from
www.Samsung.PartStore.com.
