Samsung Plasma TV, PN58B540
Reason for Service: 
Turns off intermittently, cycles
Solution: Use the melody to
guide your troubleshooting.
Does melody play when set turns off ?
No – means power loss, replace power
               supply.
Yes – means the set thinks it shut off
                 normally.  Look at 1 of 2 parts.
If the TV plays a melody, that means it could either be the mainboard or
the function/IR board. When you hear the relay turn on, quickly remove the AC
cord from the wall.  Now disconnect the
function/IR connector from the main board and replug the AC back into the
wall.  Does the set stay on ?
No –  main board bad.
Yes – function/IR board bad.
