TV stopped working

The unit stopped working. When it is plugged in you can hear relays pick up and drop out a couple of times and the red light on the front of the set blinks 2 times a second for about 10 seconds pauses and repeats. After about a minute the relays stop trying to pick up, and the light continues to flash. I have opened up the unit and identified the relays. They are on the power supply board. I have replaced the power supply board and I still have the same problem flashing light and the clicking relays. I cannot visually see and bad capacitors.

Since no brand etc listed here

Google the model number with 2 blinks and look at the results, you may find on another forum the answer to what it means and even a answer--error codes tend to be general in nature so do not expect it to point to a specific part.

SOURCE: tv shuts off after 10-20 minutes

its not the problem with ur electron gun tube or with any picture ic or sound ic. Every t.v. is microcontoller switched machine.
any damage to microcontroller ic that controls the switching will lead to this kind of problem.
0.01% chance of residue EHT voltage would have affected the microcontroller.

SOURCE: Samsung LN-T2632H won't turn on.

Follow these steps to figure out what problem is.
When you turn on TV, look at the back and see if the back light on. If it is on, the power supply and inverter work fine. The suspection now is main board and T-con board (the small board on the middle-top of the panel)
To find the problem from the main board or not. Look at the power supply and measure Vs on - turn on the TV, this approx 5 vlt DC needs constant once you turn on the TV. If it is drop or unstable - main board problem - replace it.
If Vs on is good - disconnect the T-con cable from the power sup. If power sup stop clicking - T-con need replacing. Hope it help.

SOURCE: Have a Magnavox 37mf321d LCD TV, one day, went to

Although a capacitor may look good, it may be weak or bad. Here is what you will have to do. Replace capacitor (location) 2074 which is a 25 volt 2200Mf at 105 degrees. Replace capacitor (location) 2081 which is a 35 volt 1200 Mf at 105 degrees. And you should change capacitor 2066 which is a 16 volt 10Mf at 105 degrees. Please be careful with the last cap mentioned. You can easily tear the PCB trace if you are not extremely careful. This should bring your TV back to life. Thanks for asking and show a few hands of support!

I recently dropped my amp after a gig and once I hooked it back up only one channel works. I noticed upon start up after the fault lights go out I would hear two clicks .. now I only hear one. I'm...

I am a musician myself (classic rock band) I too have a crown two Chanel amp , only difference is ours is a 3000. Well don!t feel bad. I had dropped mine more than once and your right, when you turn it on you hear two clicks, one for each side, those are relays that trigger the power to come on and like warm up. I dropped mine one time and both sides were not clicking at all, so I took it apart ( lid off, unplugged of course) located the relays which were pretty easy to find as they were the first switch from where the internal power plug comes in, I moved them around, got lucky, they got loose from when I dropped. Then happened again by a helper, and this time no help. Went to guitar center and they took unit and replaced them, about 40 bucks. That was a couple years ago. Point of my story, this problem seems as mine, and I believe it is going to be a loose or broken relay for that side chanel. Thanks mike, hope this helps.

I was playing my PS3 and moved it from my tv upstairs to my tv downstairs. After plugging my PS3 in my tv downstairs, on which it had worked just 1 week previously, my tv picked up no signal from my PS3....

Try this.

Plug your PS3 on either TV. Turn on the backswitch. When the red light in front is on, put your finger on the on/off button in front AND KEEP IT THERE. You will hear some beeps; don't worry about that. Keep your finger on the button until the front power light goes red again. This resets the PS3 video settings. Turn the PS3 on and the TV should pick up the signal.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted.

AKAI 32" LCD HDTV WILL NOT TURN ON

The only solution at this point would be to get the power supply repair since new boards are not longer being manufactured. In about 95% of the time if the LCD doesn't power up or turns OFF by itself or need to be unplug for some time to make work again; those are the symptoms of a dying or defective power supply.
I service these power supplies, for more info write to [email protected]

Bike not firing

no go. When I got to the bottom I keep trying to start it. The starter had good power and would turn it over but it wouldn't fire. After trying a couple of times I would turn it off and let it set. I did notice that I am not hearing the normal buzz that the fuel injector makes. I don't see any damage on either side and don't see any loose wires. We finally got the bike back to camp around 5:30 this evening and got home. Has anyone else had this problem? What can I check? What next? P.S. It has been a great day, and got better. When we stopped to clean the bikes at the car wash, I forgot to put my boots back in the trailer. Anyone have a size 12 that they aren't using???,Under the left side cover you will see two relays, one is a fuel pump relay the other a fan relay. Try changing them around and see if that works it could be a faulty relay. Some auto shops sell them, if you replace it or just refitting it seel the relay with silicon to stop water getting in.If it is not this look at the fuses under the seat are not loos or blowen.,,,

Ilo 32 lcd

I have the same issue. Here's a temporary solution, which is what I've been doing for the last couple of weeks, unplug the unit from the wall, just long enough for the red standby light to go out, then plug the unit back up. as soon that the red standby light comes on, press the on button the the remote or the unit. You may have to do this couple of time before it works. Somedays it works on the first try for me and then somedays I have to do it 3 to 4 time. I sure that at some point this will stop working too.

Hyundai plasma model HP-4200

Hello ****, I have the same problem. However. I manage to get the TV on by pulling the cable out and then plug it back in again several times. A couple of times just after you have heard the first click and the a couple of times just when you hear the second click. Sudenly the TV decided to work again. I think it must be a problem with one of the two relays that sits next to each other near the centre of the TV. If you take the back of and then plug the power back in you will see the two lights next to those relays come on and then die out when the relays let go. This is what hapens if the TV doesnt work. If the TV works those lights/LED's will stay green and the relays will hold on and feeding the TV screen. I will probably try to see if I can buy replacement relays and replace these. If I can get hold of them, then probably I would take the existing relays appart to see if I could see any fault. If those relays ar ok and the replacement relays appear in the same manor like the old ones I would look for problems before those relays. Maby order a new circut board from Samsung.
