Winner: Rix86

Giving away a 40" Samsung LCD TV Model LN40A550. Wifey said get rid of it since I'm not willing to fix it at this point. I bought this approx. 8-10 years ago. Worked perfectly as my bedroom TV, but found it easier it to buy a new one with the all the 4K tech. Comes with remote (no batteries), stand, and power cable. At some point I mounted it (removed the stand) and lost 2 of the mounting screws for the stand, but I have replaced them with longer screws, but no issues besides what is listed below.

Issue: TV powers on, displays distorted picture (green lines) and high pitched noise, power cycles a few times and works fine after that.
Fix: Replace the power supply board and/or some capacitors. It might just need a dusting/cleaning, not sure.
Here's a link to what I think the issue is: https://www.justanswer.com/tv-repair/8b ... anied.html

Not in but I know that era Samsung TV had power supply issue a fee capacitors on the board would blow and cause that issue, happened to my au ts TV and they had an extended warranty for it. I was actually surprised they had someone come to the house and fix it. When I say fix not just swap out the power supply he soldered in new capacitors in the age of parts replacement.

In please. Would make a good tv for my 8 year old, I don't think he would mind a slightly distorted picture.

Not In

Ya, I'd check for domed or leaky caps.

I used to have the contract to maintain all of the Wyse terminals for a 45 branch library system.
What made it so profitable was I was a component level troubleshooter.
Where the previous company would swap out a board for $150, I would replace a diode and two caps for a total cost of 35 cents.
Rode around on my Harley with a butane soldering iron and some flyback transformers, transistors, diodes, caps, and 88/89 com chips.
Since they all used the same terminals, I knew what the problem was before even opening it and it took me less than 5 minutes to fix it.
And I didn't have the room to carry a dozen boards.

I'm gonna tap out. I'd rather it go to a kid or someone actually needing a TV.
