Samsung ln46c600f3f, turns on, sound, no picture?	Can't Post

Hello, I have a 46" Samsung, model ln46c600f3f. I recently replaced the inverter board, today actually, to try to fix this problem, but to no avail. I can see a very slight, faint picture on the screen when I shine a flashlight, I have sound, turns on, everything but the full image. As stated, replaced the inverter board today with the same model.

Any help, tips?

Check C1818 on PS.

1) A fork & knife?
2) Become a professional Big Rig driver?
3) Your ~~swollen/leaky/puffy/bulging~~ eyes to observe IF capacitor(s) swollen/leaky/puffy/bulging and/or a Capacitor value and ESR tester?

Swapping out whole board is the 'easiest' way to try - also the most expensive, but since you already KNOW how to replace a board ...

None of the capacitors are bulging, no clicking like I've seen from capacitor issues, either

Have you located C1818 yet?

Notice I said to locate and check this particular one ... NOT that this particular one IS the one and only possibility.

The one that is a white rectangle? That one is bulging on the sides, yes.

Shop Jimmy has a kit of parts - '(board part number) shop jimmy' will usually show on first Google page.

OR

Digikey / Mouser for cap alone. 0.47uf 450VDC Polyester Film type.

I think that I'm just going to replace the one capacitor. It's cheaper. Thank you so much for your help!
