The picture on my Samsung TXN3245FP keeps going into the shape of an hourglass! When i take the back off the tv and jack up the board it makes the picture just fine, but if i put the back of the tv back on it goes back into the hourglass shape. Can anybody please give me some help with this problem?? Much appreciated :)) |

you have a bad solder connection on the board. Apparently when you flex it, the circuit is completed. You're going to have to take a bright light and possibly a magnifying glass and see if you can find it. Then solder a jumper wire across the bad connection. |

Oh wow. That could take awhile. Is there a particular spot that you would recommend checking first? Possibly an area that controls the shape that the picture is in?? |
