i just took mine into the shop for the same problem, very irritating hearing it turn on and off all the time just to start, it would take like 10 minutes for my tv to finally turn on, the technician at the shop said the power supply was bad and i wasn't getting enough power to the main board to turn the TV on, 200 bucks later, I am happy, fix it, it is worth it.

I'm not sure about your model. I picked my fuse based on a youtube video showing how to repair the on/off switch. I would try that avenue to confirm it should work. Good luck!

I had a switch that worked most of the time. Once in a while it would "stick" and a small tap on the side of the unit would free it up and it would run again ok for quite some time. However, on one of its stick times, I hadn't checked it for some time and my whole basement flooded. I changed the switch which I believe is a weak point in the system (after reading other people's posts).

We used ours about a dozen times and then the On/Off switch spontaneously stopped working. I'm not holding my breath on them sending me a replacement as it has been just over 90 days since time of purchase.

Automatic switching never worked for me, and I don't believe there's an. Option to turn it on or off.

I just called samsung (5/6/2010) regarding the clicking on/off issue. I purchased my LN46A650 May 31 2008. I don't have an extended warranty. They said they will repair the unit free of charge ONCE if it is showing any of these symptoms:Does not turn onRepeatedly turns on/off with a clicking soundTakes long time to turn onClicks on/off w/ no picture.The repair must result in replacing the capacitors or there will be extra charge.

Sorry, I haven't had that problem and can't give specific advice. What happens when you turn it off and then on again? Doing that often clears a problem with a variety of electronic devices.

Google the on/off problem, it's a well documented issue that can usually be fixed with simple firmware update. Try this thread for all things LNXXA550... www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1020612

I'm almost positive that you need all switches to be replaced. I know there is information on the smarthome web site on things like this.

I had that problem once. There is a reset button to push. When I did that it powered back on and I haven't had the issue since.

I had many problems with this myself. I tried to figure that out however was unsuccessful. I purchased other similar switches so I do not think I received a faulty switch. I would suggest YouTube.

Yes, I did! On the short side, where the power plug goes in, there is a half-moon shaped hole with nothing in it. My tv screen is rolling and I think the dip switches are supposed to be in the hole, so I could switch to NTSC. Do you have the rolling screen problem too?

first make sure the on switch on the side is slid in the on position -- even if on I've turned it off and then on and that seems often to solve this problem.

It's the simplest of on-off switches, so hard to imagine anything could go wrong. Ask for an exchange. Maybe there's some bad wiring inside. Mine works as advertised, giving me the privacy a person should have from phone solicitors and robo-calls!

Try setting the switches the opposite of how you think they should be. Switch the ones you think should be off to on and vice versa. I remember the dip switches were confusing because what looks like should be the on setting was actually the off setting.

Try the reset procedure--unplug for 10 minutes. I've not had this problem with this model.

I never used the switch. Mine works okay. You must have received a defective unit. Return or exchange it ASAP
