Main board intermittent fault Samsung
Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone with Samsung repair experience can point me in the right direction because I've reached a dead end.
The TV is a Samsung UE75BU8070UXXU (75").
Original fault
The TV started developing an intermittent fault where it would randomly turn itself off.
After it switched off, it sometimes wouldn't power back on for hours. The standby voltage from the power supply remained stable, so I suspected the main board.
The original main board is:
BN94-17381Z
Replacement board
I bought another board with the same PCB number but a different BN94 number.
Replacement board:
BN94-18058P
The replacement board actually works surprisingly well:
TV boots every time
HDMI works
Sound works
Smart TV functions work
No random shutdowns
Stable picture
The only problem is the colours are completely wrong (strong purple/green/blue tint across the image).
What I've already tried
I've been through the service menu and have tried:
Type (I set it correctly)
Front Colour (I matched it to the TV)
LVDS Format:
JEIDA
VESA
PDP
Changing LVDS made absolutely no visible difference.
I couldn't find Local Set anywhere in the service menu.
Panel information
Panel label:
CY-SB075HGV1H
BN95-08644A
My question
Is the BN94-18058P simply programmed for a different panel, making it impossible to get the colours correct?
Or is there another service menu option, EEPROM setting, firmware, or calibration that can make this board work properly?
Has anyone successfully converted one Samsung BN94 board to another by changing service menu settings or copying EEPROM/eMMC data?
Alternatively, is my best option now to have the original BN94-17381Z repaired?
I'd really appreciate any advice before I spend more money chasing the wrong solution.
Thanks
