Samsung TV Problem Turning On - How to Repair Fix

Samsung LCD TV's have problems turning on. Well known problem due to bad capacitors on the power supply. Class Action Lawsuit should be filed. I am in Canada and looking for people to join me. Samsung is not accepting responsibility and my $1500 TV is just older than the warranty period. I had to fix it myself but I bought 2 other Samsung TV's and Blu-Rays at the same time and now I'm praying they aren't affected. I will never buy Samsung again.

Wiki's are always a reliable source of official information. /sarcasm

[gestergester]

More reliable than Samsung corporate public relations. :-)

I chose LG. It still didn't fail me.

@FOGoticus Don't get me wrong, I am not blaming Samsung for necessarily making a bad product... Every company has issues with products because of bad supply-chain. I am blaming Samsung for not admitting the problem and offering to fix it. That is why Toyota credibility fell after they tried to hide or delay a recall with their cars. If you are a company and see a common problem, FIX IT and be HONEST. That's all. People understand problems happen... they will be loyal if you stand by them too.

@brantk81 Glad to see another successful fix! Keep on spreading the word and lets get more people to fix their Samsung (and maybe other brand) TV's!

gestergester - Would love to get in on a class action lawsuit! I've had this problem a few months ago, Samsung completely blew me off basically told me too bad. I am disgusted by Samsung. I live in Toronto, Canada and would love to start a class action suit against them

Please check the "Samsung's TV market share in Japan. There is a proverb that "lose money to buy a cheap" in Japan.　『安物買いの銭失い』
