Samsung Main Board Ln46a850s1f
I am having some issues with my TV where it would all of sudden start to strobe and then go to a snow screen then a black screen. After a few seconds a no signal box would appear. If I leave it on long enough the picture come back. After a few minutes the cycle all over again. Some days it happens often and some none at all. I suspect the main board. If so, where can I buy a good quality replacement.

Just my opinion but it sounds like a power supply issue. The power supply on these models include the high voltage inverter which supply high voltage to the panel backlights. I suppose that it could be a main board which is telling the P/S to turn the backlights on and off. I think that it is the P/S itself that is not holding the load or otherwise defective.
You might try changing the picture mode to Standard or Movie and also turning the backlight down in the picture settings. If this has an effect on the severity of the strobe effect, then it probably is the P/S.

I hope this is helpful to you!

I would first advise speaking with Samsung Support to see if they can diagnose/troubleshoot the issue with you over the phone. If necessary, they can schedule repairs too.

That said, if it is the main board that is the source of the issue, you can buy one here:
