While watching TV last night, it made a very loud POP and sparks shot out the lower left. There is a crack in the lower left and a piece fell off when I touched it. The clear plastic piece along the bottom has damage all the way across. It still works! However I think it is a fire hazard. I see others on this forum had the exact same thing happen, though with newer models with different numbers and Samsung offered assistance offline. What did they say? I'm looking for Samsung to offer me assistance. It is model LN32B540P8D. Made in Tijuana Mexico in 2009. Time to just get a new one?

Sorry to hear that your Tv had a issue since it's 15 years old, you would need to contact Samsung support for repair, and I'm not even sure if they still make parts for it.
