Easy Fix! Samsung Smart TV keep restarting | UN55TU8500F

[@err2006]

they should investigate Samsung. Everybody has the same problem around the same time. This is a rip off. If this is supposed to last no more than 2yrs they should advertise it as so.

[@lindsaywelham9105]

I agree. My extended warranty expired 2 months ago and now the tv is doing exactly what everyone else’s is doing. Which is why I’m here. 2 years and 2 months for a tv that cost over $800 is not sufficient. Samsung is garbage.

[@johanburger4454]

Yeah I'm going down to the store now to cause a fukin scene. There's no ways that these idiots doing the reviews are not aware of this problem.

[@SAMratterrier]

Yep, Class Action lawsuit.

[@amoffat2012]

Outstanding big man! Just fixed my QE50Q60TAU using this exact trick. Took a while to figure out which pins - just trial and error but I got there. A 2mm strip of sellotape saved me over £400 which I was quoted to fix the TV.

[@chukwuemekaphilip5144]

I have the exact same tv model. And mine just started having the same fault

[@carlyleung3390]

TRULY AMAZING fix.... still boggles my mind how this works. A bit of tape versus hundreds of dollars for a new tv... who knew? THANK YOU!!!

[@trudyfroberts3477]

I just fixed mines. Was loosing my mine since yesterday. I hit the remote in my hand buttons 2:18 facing my palm. It worked!!!! It worked!!

[@greggyoung4382]

OMG! I've just fixed our TV with this instruction........ you, sir, are a genius! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@user-tx8wr6iu4r]

Took a few hours of trial and error but this was a useful video. Taping off a few pins got my TV working again. Thank you

[@dr.davident]

Bro, you kept on trying to tape every single line ? I tried up to 5th line, it works a while then same things happen and screen turns half black and it restarts. To which line did you reach ?

[@user-tx8wr6iu4r]

@@dr.davident used a piece of black art tape the width of 2 pins and carefully moved it down the strip and reconnected until I got a visual. I kept the TV on, which I do not recommend if you are not experienced. Reason I say is because even after disconnected from power these TV's are capable of delivering a strong shock with any stored energy.

[@wanjikunyaga]

1 hour of trial and error & it worked 🥹🥹 Second time my samsung tv is doing this. .1st time I was under warranty they brought me another tv and now exactly 2 years later. . The same issue recurred Thanks for this tip 🙏🏾

[@tiffanyakomani6086]

It’s strange that everyone is having the same problem around the same time. My tv gave no warning signs. Im beginning to think Samsung is up to something .

[@dman5501]

Having exactly same issue right now. Bought mine EXACTLY 2 years ago from this day

[@ma1oba]

Me too. I have a TU8000. What the heck is going on

[@creekdoggthepups9876]

Same for me

[@mikes361]

Joe Biden did it

[@nicolasdiaz8290]

Same here in Argentina. This issue was commented on a radio program and Samsung had to take responsibility for this, and fix the tvs even when the garantee had expire

[@gben5689]

Brilliant! I was able to fix my TV with this method, took awhile to find the right spot to put the tape, I actually had to tape it in two places, leaving about 2 mm between the tape, works like a charm at the moment !!

[@kevinjacobson2202]

This did the trick on my 1.5 year old 55" QLED. Same side as shown. What's interesting is that it takes the baclightlighting a bit of time to self-adjust now. For example, I'll have a white outline around the outside for the first few minutes, but then it disappears. As well, the repaired side was a bit lighter after taping, but it self-adjusted quickly and is fine now. Awesome fix.

[@justree2192]

I am not about to do all this . This TV is T -Rash ! Too many people having the same issue . No quality control @ Samsung ?

[@Asmr_waves01]

Is it still working?

[@DominickMascara]

Finally! I can't believe this is how simple it was to fix. Thank you! I noticed that the colors are much more dull on the left side of my tv now. Am i covering too many pins or is this just what happens after the fix?

[@dr.davident]

to which pin did you reach ? i reached to the 5th but still same problem

[@lone_wolf_215]

Woke up early this morning to get paperwork done and I saw the 70 inch Samsung cutting on and off I’m glad she bought extended warranty, I’m glad that I bought 70 inch LG tv instead with extended warranty I never had any issues with 55 inch 4k Samsung tv it’s 7 years old

[@stevostevic-z9c]

how do you get half the picture, with me only blue

[@edenbaleli6276]

Wow man, I was really doubtful but after trying many things, this actually worked! I don't know how much it will last, and still declare Samsung tvs are GARBAGE But thank you so much

[@willkelly2235]

Is that spot that you scotch taped the most common fail point on the connector?

[@michaelpasiuk9332]

Hello does this fix work on a model: UN55ES8000F? I have the back panel off but I can’t seem to find the ribbon anywhere to unplug and tape the pins. Thx so much

[@ItsTawni]

My TV is experiencing the same exact problem. I removed one half of the ribbon from one of the clamps and the power cycle stopped and the TV remained on and finally made the sound of the TV rebooting over the speakers. But I have no picture on either panel. I tried unclamping the ribbon on both sides to no avail, both panels remained black. Does this mean that I have a short on both panels and both sides of the ribbon will need tape or does this mean my problem is elsewhere? Edit: I only needed to put tape on the left panel ribbon for the full picture to return but half of the color is faded on the left side of the screen. Is this a problem when covering too many pins? I will keep trouble shooting. Thanks

[@mariovigneau_therapeute]

Did you find a solution at your problem?

what it on two sides?

[@Piratatex27]

Another one fixed with that! Thank You for sharing this!

[@dragonflygameruk4094]

I'm so glad I found this video, my TV is working again, after some faffing about to get the right pins. Mine lasted 3 years and 1 month before the fault occurred.

[@aaronneifer6108]

This is great thanks only when I unplug one ribbon only the back lights come on but at least the TV doesn't go into the power cycle. Just curious as to why half the screen doesn't work like in the video? You just saved me from recycling a two year old TV! Cheers 🍻

[@GrouseGarage]

I know your comment is a year old, but I had the exact same thing with my Samsung TU8000. It would power cycle constantly but when I removed the ribbon from one side I did not get half of the TV working, but the backlight did come on and it did stop the power cycling. My fix was taping a small section on the right side ribbon, like most seem to have done.

[@johnzachariou6046]

Good job my friend

[@Skybar23]

How do you pull the ribbon out of the connector? I feel like im gona break it

[@vkotari]

This worked, thank you so much!!!

[@yugogin]

i seem to have applied too much pressure to take the back off now the screen seems to be damaged. any recommendations on fixing this issue?

[@IceMan-xy1yt]

I got my picture back on the tv but the color is whack. Should i just keep moving the tape around?

[@mbo7613]

My model is q6f Qn55q6famfxza BN94-12756C which doesn't have the same accessible gold ribbon cables. Instead, it has two sets of white ribbon cables from the mobo into the panel. When I disconnect both ribbon cables from the mobo, it still blinks. Since it blinks when the mobo is disconnected from the panel, does this indicate a bad mobo or ps?

[@seanskatesalot]

Hey, I'm currently trying to fix my tv with this. When detaching either of the left or right half connectors the power cycle issue still remains. If I disconnect the board that has the HDMI ports etc(left while looking at the back of tv) then it seems to not power cycle but just has a black screen. Any ideas to further isolate what the issue is here? Thanks

[@ottocharms]

Hey thanks for the help! I found the location for the tape so my tv stays on, the only problem is that I only have the backlights working and no picture. I had both: no picture and a bootloop. But what can be wrong if only the backlights are working? Thanks in advance!

[@NewsonsElectronics]

need to move the tape until you get both.

[@mrhacker7293]

Did it work?

[@gmset1]

Hello, how is your TV doing now?

[@jallyphish1244]

It’s important to understand that this is more of a bandaid than a fix. any one of the pins could be broken. I just spent 2 hours doing this only to get it barely working (horrible but still visible display). Sometimes this works like a charm, other times you should just throw in the towel and buy a new TV (not Samsung).

[@anilbaksh9962]

Thank you. I just was given a TV like this by a friend for free. Guess I about to upgrade my 12 year old Visio.

[@MrHimynameisdanny]

I’m having the same problem. Unfortunately I think the best fix is throw the Samsung TV away and get a good brand…

When I disconnect one of the connectors, the whole screen turns black. I guess it differs between models but it didn't work for me. Samsung 50TU8072

[@Mikecardosobf]

The same thing is happening to me. Several months ago, I did a factory reset to fix it. The only thing I was hoping for at the time was that the TV would not go off. Now I cannot even reach that part of the TV settings as it keeps turning off and on, I have no control over it. I'm too much a newbie to try your solution, but I will see what I'll do.

[@KozmicTarot]

Did it work?

[@MrKevin1409]

What is the name Of the tape??

[@richardr5013]

Kapton tape. You may even find a little extra somewhere in the inside of the TV or other electronics. Scotch tape may work, basically anything that is not conducting electricity

[@randomcarguy3020]

My Samsung tv (None-smart) randomly turns off and just keeps going into a boot loop. I heard the sound that its turning on and then right off. I tried unplugging it for a few minutes but that did not do anything. I tried different outlets and tried holding down the power button but that did not do anything. Last night I left it unplugged for about an hour which yielded some great results. The tv turned on and stayed on for over an hour without any HDMI,USB's plugged into it. I left the TV unplugged overnight and this morning it turned back on without any issues. After about 20 minutes it went back into a boot loop. I also confirmed there are no sleep settings or power saver settings. Anything else I could try before tossing it in the trash.

I mean my panel display dosent have dot pixel and looks good) but they accusing me to change to new panel, yeah its fixed my problem. And im asking its been 2 years after purchasing this TV why samsung TV so fragile with panel even im using wall braket. Edited : The technician even suggesting me to change to brand who has 5 years guarantee panel, because all of new TV are lame. If you wanna buy beautiful color just buy Sony and never touch samsung, because sony and samsung have same problem but sony has more beautiful color. And you can buy Chinese TV like xiaomi for long using TV. Like 5-7 years
