You can look in the owners manual which will list the error codes and define each (if you do not have it GOOGLE the full model number with "manual" and locate it.On some of these (not sure if your model) 3 blinks is lamp door not closed---on those it does not mean that but means the door has been warped and a peg on the back is not engaging the safety switch which prevents set from coming on if door was removed.The door can be examined by removing outer plate where lamp is inserted and looking at it edgewise to see if warped.I can tell you to test this: Remove lamp door--inspect it--where plastic peg on back of it is behind you will see a tiny lever--with something not metal engage the lever forward and hold it.If set comes on this way door is the problem and easy to replace (lots of places if you GOOGLE the MODEL number and door you will find the part.If set works this way: DO NOT OPERATE SET FOR PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME AND DO NOT LOOK AT LIGHT AS IT CAN HARM YOUR EYES---DO NOT OPERATE SET IN THIS CONDITION OR REPLACE OUTER PLATE BACK WITH DOOR REMOVED- it can melt the outer plate or damage it.
