    Why did my Samsung Plasma TV turn on by itself?

      cameronnelsonSep 12, 2025
      If you turned the Samsung Plasma TV off 45 minutes ago, and it turned on again, it is normal. The TV operates the OTA (Over The Aerial) function itself to upgrade firmware downloaded whilst your watching TV.

      Alicia ReedAug 23, 2025
      If your Samsung Plasma TV won't turn on, ensure the AC power cord is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the TV. Verify that the wall outlet is working. Also, try pressing the POWER button on the TV itself to rule out a remote control issue.

    Why is my Samsung PS43F4500 Plasma TV making humming noise?
    • J
      James MurilloSep 3, 2025
      If your Samsung Plasma TV is making a humming noise, it's typically normal. Plasma TVs typically make a soft humming sound caused by the electrical charges used to create the images on the screen. If the humming sound is loud, you may have set the brightness on the TV too high, so try setting the brightness lower. You can also have loud humming if the back of your Plasma TV is too close to a wall or other hard surface. Also try rerouting your connection cables. Improper installation of wall mount can create excessive noise.
