Stl Bills Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 I just bought my 61" Samsung DLP 2 weeks ago today and its been shutting off due to overheating. When it shuts off the sequence of the blinking lites (per Samsung's website) indicates that I have a fan that is not operating properly. This thing is 2 !@#$ing weeks old! I guy at my work said he bought a Samsung 2 years ago and had the same thing happen...he received a new TV and it also did the same thing and he eventually had to have his Samsung replaced with a Panasonic. I have another friend who has had his Samsung for over 2 years with no problems. I'm going to take it back to Best Buy tom. and get a new one but should I try and get a new brand? I really like the Samsung a lot but don't want to go through all this BS. Anyone else have this problem?
sweetbaboo Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I don't have a Samsung, but I was considering it against the SONY SXRD. They're about the same price. I ended up going with the Sony and have had no problems since I bought it in September '06.
BigdaddyinOrlando Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I also was looking at a samsung but instead got the 62" Toshiba dlp and haven't any problems in the year that I have had it!! Don't know i that helps or not but there seems to be a pattern with samsung!
