Samsung hcm4215w projection tv
I have a rear projection tv I'm trying to get running. Originally it
wouldn't stay on. If I unplugged the convergence board it would stay on. I bought two new stk392-040's and installed them. The right hand side ic would get really hot really fast. So I took that one out and installed one of the older ones and the tv works now sort of. The picture is really bowtied shaped. Should I order another stk392-040 and try that, or order a replacement convergence board? Thanks for any help. jim |

Also make sure you use the exact replacement STK and clean the heatsink surface and use proper thermal goop. Myself I would go over the converge board with a fine tooth comb and look for low value 1/10 watt resistors that may be damaged and replace before trying another STK. Thank you for the reply. I bought the stk ic's from mcminone. It had the same numbers except for the date code. Someone else mentioned I should use panasonic stk's, but I haven't found any yet. The heatsink had an insulator on it and no thermal goop. Do you think I should use goop with the insulator? I will check the resistors. I appreciate the advice. jim |
