Most all of those Samsungs use a Time delay fuse

> This set is back again.,..

pressed the power button. I found an

the fuse opens.
> I suspect the FBT which I got from ASTI, but I would think the HOT would
go also.

section..resistors, diodes, etc.,

keep going through fuses to

> I repaired this set exactly one month ago.
> Replaced the FBT with a generic from Acme Sales...(Don't say it). Also,
replaced the fuse, HOT and R415.
> Got a call today the set was dead again, just clicked on, then clicked off
when pressing power.
> Went over this evening to find R415 (.47/1w) open again and burnt. I
replaced it with a .39 ohm and the
> set worked. The color bands were burnt on this.
> The B+ goes through this resistor.
> I felt the resistor after running the set for a while and it didn't get
real hot.
> Question, could a faulty flyback cause this or a marginal reg?
> Is it possible the lower value I used may increase the longevity of this
component?
> Thank you.
