Plasma problem (ps50c430) - jumping pink pixels

[DarkDenim]

6 Series 50" Full HD. I think it was the Ps50B650. No Buzz, No Break In - Absolutely love it. I dont use any other media players as the one on the tv handles almost anything I throw at it. except flv's doh! But the PQ is superb. It has a really nice picture engine which helps I guess.

That's the model before the PS50C550.

Awesome, must have cost a pretty penny 2 yrs back.

21.5K + 2K for warranty. Feel like an idiot when I look at the prices now. I was wobbed I tell you. wobbed.

That's the model before the PS50C550.

Correct.

Its a worldwide problem, google bad caps and you will see that Samsung put bad caps in all 2004-2008 tv models.

They KNOW this and they DID NOT issue a mass recall.

I opened up my tv last night and found the culprit, with electrolyte leaking out, it will cost me under R10 to fix.

Im never buying another samsung product again.
