Samsung TV Won't Turn On | PROVEN Fix!

Mate you have explained your steps in fixing a black screen for a Samsung tv in a professional and easy to follow way, it was a pleasure watching your video and a big thanks to you my tv problem is fixed.

Didn’t work for me I’m afraid , I just can’t get the remote to connect to my tv , it’s just stopped working ! Nothing wrong with the remote as it works with my other Samsung tv . Could you suggest anything else to try Please?

Power cycling as you directed worked for me! Thanks!

Thanks for the help troubleshooting this POS. I will give it all a shot and let you know how it went. Thanks again!

After resetting the Verizon menu w sound comes back on normally than disappears and then there’s some of the picture at the bottom. That disappears and the red light continues to blink. Any advice on that issue would be greatly appreciated.

I am actually having the same black screen with my 50" Samsung 4k uhd frm Wednesday 23rd January . I called the Samsung expert and explained the situation they told me the warranty expired even though the tv is less than 2 years used. I tried all the syeps that they instructed me even the red light is still on.

thank you !!!! i am a complete novice at tv care. so easy to understand and it worked !!!

Thanks this worked perfectly!

He didnt explain when the red light doesn’t come on he said he’ll get back to it and didn’t smhh

Didn't work for me!!🙁

When this crap happens, trash the tv and be done with it. Its not worth putting money in old tvs when they are so cheap now.

My TV is going on and off by itself.

This works!!
I have a Samsung LN S4051D that, out of the blue, wasn't turning on and no standby light at all. My power button on TV is on the front bottom middle and standby light is on the power button. This button hasn't worked in years.
I unplugged it from both the wall and back of TV, held power button down 15 secs then actually waited 20 mins before I plugged everything back in.
But mine wasn't instant, it took 30 mins before the standby light came on and I was finally able to turn on TV.
But thank you SO much for this video!!

Thank you so much. I was getting so frustrated. Draining the power worked!

Yep, tried it all and nothing. Funny thing is it was working just fine last night. We decided to move the bedroom around, and now nothing, dead as a door nail. Guess it's time for a new TV.

I fixed it with a hammer and a bottle of vodka. And a trip to Costco

I moved my Samsung to another room... would not turn on. Found your video... pulled the plug... found the manual power button and held it for over 15 seconds. Waited 30 seconds, then plugged it back in... and voila! It turned right on. Thanks so much, there is no way in hell I would have figured that out...

It doesn’t make any sense. This is random not technically solved

Extremely well worded....you should teach others transparency... unfortunately out tv is shot...we may try the boards you mentioned....does any of that requires welding?

We thought you was Jessie from breaking bad! Thanks

Your a legend.thanks man!

I went through all you steps and it now turns on OK . thank you so much

L🎉

Thanks for the video, we just got this samsung smart TV in Nov 2023. It's off and the power light is blinking so I'm guessing it's the power capacitor.

steps were easy to follow - I don't think I want another Samsung.

Phew😅. Brand new QN85 b. Took it out the box, set it all up
on the instructions It says to turn it on with the remote but nothing was happening. The red light at the bottom right of the TV was on. I had a look. Couldn't see a button but after watching your video I had another look. And yes, where the Samsung logo is on the bottom right There is a tiny little power button. and it's all good. Thank you!

Highly appreciable job that u hv done..only bcz of u i will b able to able to watch manchester united vs chelsea 2night...

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS. MY SAMSUNG TV LIGT IS NOT DARN FLASHING IT'S RED WHEN THE TV IS OFF NOT FLASHING WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

I replaced the power supply board because the screen would not turn on. Now the screen lights up with SmartTV. Then turns off. Cannot get the menu up. What should I replace next? 2016 samsung un65ju6500 smart tv

Had my Samsung 55" for 12 years, I didn't want to give up the 3D. Problem started about a month ago. Stuck in standby, flashing red light, clicking noise. Click...click...

The ol' unplug didn't work...messing around with the buttons didn't work. Guess what amazingly DID work, and keeps working 😂

I got so frustrated after trying everything, that I BANGED the tv with the fleshy part of my fist. IT CAME ON 😂😂😂😭😭!!!!!!That "woke" it up, LOL 😂!

That screen lit up, I couldnt beleive it, I was unplugging, holding down buttons, for days! Not with a hammer, or any blunt object, just take the fleshy part of the side of your fist and joilt the tv with a hard bang! Might have to do it multiple times. "Wakes" the tv out of whatever is going on with the standby or motherboard. Not just one spot. Bang it near the red light, in the middle, far left corners. Not sure where "the spot" is, choose a different location.

Tv's good for a couple weeks, until the next standby issue. Then I'd leave the tv on, and dont do the standby. The cable box changes the screen, so theres no burn-in ghost imaging.

The new Samsung 4K Qled 55" is coming in two weeks, the Samsung rep cut an irresistible deal, I had to take it. But getting my precious 3D set to work while I wait for it warms my heart 😂.

I was gonna throw it away, but it's going to the bedroom, while the new tv takes over the living room 😂. No troubleshooting exercises, no $200 repair bill, just a simple fist 😂! Who'd have thunk it!

…thank you SO much 😭😭I had tried everything , bought a new cord , left unplugged forever and had just accepted my 2 year old tv was screwed but THIS fixed it after months using my laptop to watch stuff , thank you soooo much 😭

First step throw your TV away and go get an LG tv

Ok my Emerson flat screen is almost 10 yrs old and has a black screen on it, but sound. Was working fine 2 days ago. I used a flashlight and vaguely see the images and light and picture. Is it black light failure and just time for a new TV. Because I'm not opening the back of that or even trying. I do leave tv on all night while sleeping.

I does not have a Samsung TV remote I'm trying to hook up my Samsung TV to my TCL

Nothing worked for me it is what it is and I probably have to buy a new tv I have been using my tv for about 2 years and those tv’s are supposed to last more longer than that

I appreciate it, buddy! Step 3 worked perfectly, smooth as a whistle.
Thanks again 😄

Yeah you just saved me a few hundred dollars 😂😅
Thank you so much sir 👐

At first the red light was flashing, then I pressed the off button for 15 seconds with the plug pulled out, waited 30 seconds and plugged the plug back in. Now nothing flashes anymore. What's the problem??

Your steps for troubleshooting which of the internal boards was the culprit were perfect (blank screen, but sound was good)!
I replaced the T-ConBoard - nope, and then the Powersupply-board - Bingo!
Also – best advice – take the back of the TV off and TAKE PICTURES to make sure you replace the board with the EXACT board (because there are different revisions, etc.).
Thank you for the advice. I really did NOT want to throw out a 62" TV.
Less than $100, and it's back in action. Thank you!

Buy a high priced ass samsung they tell u pos went out in 3 yrs on me today fell asleep with the tv on and woke up to a black screen pos and none of these steps is working

Thank you so much! You helped fix it. You just save me hundreds of dollars.

I worked and worked finally figured it out the power cord came unplugged..Thank you😊

Thanks so much.Your instructions did the trick. TV came on after unplugging cord and holding in power button then switching outlets. Thanks again

I've haven't unplugged my TV in 6 years. It just stop turning one one day. No red light or anything. Unfortunately, none of these tips helped me

Mine has worked.. awesom

Fixed it, actually took a few attempts and I believe it was because of the power bar. Thanks a bunch 👍

Phew!!! Just fixed my old 32" Samsung that suddenly stopped working a few days ago for $0!!! Had a black screen of death with a steady standby light. No picture, no sound. Power cycling the TV did the trick! None of the other videos I watched (a bunch I tell 'ya) told me about holding in the power button for 15 seconds to discharge the power from the capacitors. Thanks so much for providing this valuable info!

I was ready to order a power supply board when I saw your video. THANK YOU!!! Your advise to pull plug, disconnect surge protector, and reset WORKED wonderfully. We pair over $400 for our un50tu8000fxza Samsung TV 3 years ago and we were distressed that we may need to discard it. We are retired and $400 for a new TV would hurt. Thank you again for selflessly sharing your expertise with others.

This worked! I had to go through to the remote reset but that did it! Thank you! 🎉

Mine was doing this. Before I watched your video I tried unplugging and plugging back in and pressing the power button for some seconds etc. My last resort was to give the TV a hard smack with my finger tips at the bottom right hand side next to the power button.That immediately worked. Its currently fine but If it does it again I'll try your proper approach. I really like my 50 inch Plasma Samsung and would rather fix it than replace.

All good advice! I left the room and my tv was blacked out when I came back. I didn't know if the red light meant it was powered on or off. I started pushing buttons on the remote and checking all the cables and power connections. At one point I had sound but I must have changed the source with all the button pushing so now I know the red light is standby I will try the resetting again. Really frustrating just having the power button and the remote. My other TVs all have multiple buttons on the side or bottom. Looks like I'll be going to Walmart!
