Guys, I am devastated. My Samsung 64 F8500 plasma TV has died on me just after 1 year warranty. Has sound but no picture.
1. It started around the 11th month where the TV would only give out the sound(no picture) once in a while - this happened once every 20 starts or so.
2. Around the 13th month, the TV wouldnt start once in a while(1 in 5 starts) but would eventually start within a min... This delay extended sometimes to 5 min by the 14 month.
3. Now, after 16 months, it just wont show picture and only give the sound. The weird part is that even the sound comes in after about a minute of the power light blink.
Here is the video I made
Samsung India service asking to change panel and quoted 80k with the TV just out of warranty
Samsung India have a section where we can send complaint email to the executive management - I am doing that now with a link to my video. Not holding my breath - but I am not going to splurge 80k servicing a TV that's just over a year old.
