These blinks are fault indication, and known as blinking codes. From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON; you can get an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside the TV. This will make repair easy. For more information, check the link http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

where is the solution??? The sideline said there was one!! I have the same problem and FixYa seems to be useless with this particular problem. Spent half a day fighting my TV setting, but no luck. Panasonic should specify what kind of devices can be used to connect their TV's to network: whether you can only use it with a wired connection going straight to your router, so you get DHCP/DNS resolved, or some other means. You definitely can't use wireless Access Point to get the Viera Cast to work. I tried bunch of modes and settings on my Access Point (Trendnet, both router and AP), but get the same error "DNS name not valid". What in the world!!! I get connection to my router, my DHCP is enabled, connection in Network Settings checks OK, but VIera Cast still gives me that DNS error. What gives??? Anyone smart enough around here to figure this one out? I tried both automatic and manual network detection, with the same results, even tried connecting another router to AP, which got connection right away, and thought I could full Viera Cast that way. No luck! What a useless option in a TV, when it doesn't work! FAQ on Panasonic's site are not helpful with this issue, either. No straight answer on the Net, either. HELP SOMEBODY!

The blinks are counted as they go dark, not light up, so it is probably 9 blinks.
9 blinks highlights a bad SUS (sustain) section which could be the SS board. More likely a failure in the SC, SU, and SD boards on the opposite side of the PCB area.

It will need to be serviced either wayas its not something you could do yourself. Best of luck!

Not totally sure what your asking but I think your saying your LED lamps aren't working, if that's the case replace them

You either have a bad Main board or simply a bad touch control button in other word one of your side buttons is defective and it is blocking any other signal to the main board, but usually its a bad main board. In some cases ther is a FIRMWARE update from Panasonic, you may want to call Panasonic or check there website for any type of FIRMWArE UPDATE.

These blinks (flashes) are fault indication. By the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside the TV. Count the blinks occur at one time switch ON, carefully. Do it once again, and make sure about the number of blinks. If the flashes are continious, non-stop, the main system control IC should be suspected. If you wish to get more details, check the site linked here. It has blinking codes detail to many brand TVs.
