Samsung un55nu6950fxza TV
These LEDs are very susceptible to static electricity damage. What happens when they get zapped is a tiny threading fault starts in the LED crystal. The aluminum contact metal starts migrating into the crack, makes it wider and longer, and eventually goes all the way through the LED and shorts it out. When that happens, the metal overheats and burns out the LED so the entire string goes dead.
What this means for you is that the original LED may have been may have been zapped at the factory. The replacement strip likewise, or when it was removed from another TV (if it is a used part), or when you put it in. It should have been in anti-static packaging. You have to be very careful not to touch any of the circuitry on the LED strip, and make sure you ground your hand to the TV metal both before picking up the LED strip and right before connecting the strip to the TV. Better yet, use an anti-static wristband connected to the TV frame.
It is possible that the LED driver for that string is pushing too much current, but that's not likely. You would probably notice that part of the screen is unnaturally bright.

Brand new Samsung 77 OLED tv. Got knocked off the stand and fell on and bent the lower corner
It sounds like your TV has a display issue, likely caused by physical damage to the screen due to the bend. Repairing a damaged screen can be quite expensive, often nearing or exceeding the cost of a new TV, especially for larger screens like the one you described.
Here are a few options you might consider:
- Sell it as is: You can try selling the TV in its current condition, clearly describing the issue with the display. Some buyers may be interested in purchasing it for parts or attempting a repair themselves.
- Attempt a DIY repair: Depending on your technical skills and willingness to take on the challenge, you could try to repair the TV yourself. However, this can be risky and may void any remaining warranty. There are online tutorials and replacement parts available, but again, this route requires some technical expertise.
- Professional repair: You could contact a professional TV repair service to get an estimate for repairing the screen. Be sure to weigh the cost of repair against the potential selling price of the TV after it's fixed to determine if it's worth the investment.
- Sell for parts: If repairing the screen is not feasible, you could dismantle the TV and sell its components individually. Some parts, like the internal circuitry or casing, may still hold value to electronics enthusiasts or repair professionals.
- Trade-in or recycle: Some retailers offer trade-in programs where you can exchange your old electronics for store credit or discounts on new purchases. If the TV is beyond repair, you can also look into recycling options to properly dispose of it.
Ultimately, the best option for you will depend on the extent of the damage, your budget, and your willingness to invest time and effort into repairing or selling the TV.

Drain pipe clogged in samsung sr606-ev - how to clean it/ unclogged?
Is this the flexible pipe coming out of the back of the machine or the pipe work inside the machine? The flexible pipe (usually grey in colour) is a 'push on' fit. You'll need to get in behind the machine. With a bit of wiggling and twisting the pipe should pull off at the machine end. You should then be able to get the whole thing out from behind the machine to clean it. I used an long, old piece of wood dowel to loosen the dirt. I then carefully flushed it through using a garden hose with the nozzle set to jet, not to the wide spray pattern. I know this because I got very wet making that mistake.
Fans in both refrigerator and freezer of Samsung RF4287 HARS-xaa are not working. Replaced evaporator fan motor in fridge and it is still not working. Help, please!
could be just the coil on the valve, but most more likely valve getting stuck as it opens. somtimes can take apart and clean, will work for awhile, but if have the cash best just swap it out. will save you hassel down the road.My Aplogies I was under the impression you had already located the valve. I as I have not seen unit I can not give the location, However since it is on the water system, I would trace water tubing from where it connects to unit. It should not be far from inlet connection. Look for tubing going to a valve with wires ontop, ensure after the valve is where you whish water/ice to come out. Once that is located take photo and order new valve, or secure water remove and clean valve. Note have container ready as water will leak once you remove valve.
