Brought this home DOA for free. Going to fix it and use in my garage while playing with my toys (No cracks Admin)  Has flashing stby led on the front. Assuming power supply needs attention with my esr meter. Got any history with this pig? G. Howie Phartz |

You have the right idea. And while that iron is hot, touch up everything that looks funny.

Most likely capacitors in the PS. Replace them all, in the secondary section, with Panasonic FC, or FM series from Digikey.

Only found one bad cap. It was a 1000uf 25V cap at CM856 Replaced it with same value but a 35V. Replaced CM851 and CM852 because I had them. Actually pulled and tested the rest of them to be OK.
Still flashing stby led The power bd is # BN44-00156A. I don't know if it matters but the flash is 2 seconds off and 5 seconds on. One thing I did notice is that it seems to see a signal coming from the IR remote as I see a quick flash when I press the remote power button. I am using a later model Samsung remote to try it though but it sees it.

Interesting tidbit The large 150uf 450V cap on the bd which has never been (as far as I know) been a issue with these won't even read on my Atlas ESR+ ER70
I couldn't get a in circuit reading off of it. It's glued to the bd so I snipped one leg to get a out of circuit reading from it. Stll would not read. The meter just says testing and then times out and shuts off.

That did it. I scabbed a 150uf 400V cap off a AmPro horizontal bd I had kicking around and she's off and running.
