The access panel to the lamp has a switch sitting behind it. If that panel is opened, the switch will turn off the TV automatically if the TV is on. Over time, the plastic expands and contracts and the switch triggers false signals. You have to tape the switch so that it thinks the panel is always closed.

That is the most common reason for the random-turning-off of samsung TVs. However, it could be the color wheel is going bad, or the tv could be overheating (clean exhaust vents), or the lamp is going bad.
