Three blinks is short protection----the most common cause in panasonic sets is a shorted convergence IC---most use 2 STK-392-110 ic's;they are located on metal heat sinks next to each other(Ic is black with STK and number in white on it)

I have details on replacing this if you are able; if not find someone in your area to do this; What I usually do here is gain access to the 2 ic chips and UNSOLDER BOTH OF THEM(each has 18 pins) with them un-soldered turn the set on---if it comes on the convergence will be out the window but it tells you instantly one of the two chips are bad.

Both must be replaced and any of the 2.2 ohm resistors(light blue in color) around them that are white in the middle(gone) also replaced.

The chips can be purchased on Ebay and for less then 20 dollars total parts cost.

If you are not able to do this repair yourself--this is the slow time of year for TV repair shops---find someone local (make sure they change both chips!)

This repair should be able to be done in your home----If you have questions or would like the general instructions let me know.

I do this here for free so if this has helped you give me a vote here.

Why will my Panasonic 52 inch rear projection will not turn on?

I had a 50 inch projection tv and when the bulb would go out there was always a popping sound. I went on ebay and found a new bulb at half the price the tv maker wanted. I would replace the bulb. If that is not the problem then you will just have a spare that will be needed at some point.

I have a Panasonic PT-50DL54 50" rear projection tv. My tv screen won't come on but the fans will. The power led light flashes green like normal but than starts to flash fast for about a minute than the...

Time to get a new TV. I have similar problem. In my case, the set turns off, LED blinking green for about a minute or 2, then the set will turn on by itself. Something the LED started to blink yellow after blinking green and then shuts off. I can turn it back on. This happens 3 or 4 times in an hour. After that, the TV stays on for as many hours as I want until I shut it off.
And then the problem repeats everytime I turn it on from a cold start.
I have my eyes on the 50 inch Plasma from Panasonic. Bestbuy has one for 999.99.

Red light indecator keeps flashing red

Flashing red is a fan fail . It is probly blinking like 3 short and 1 long blink. If so then most likely your tv needs to have a new dmd fan installed.
Also once that tv detects a stopped fan it must be unpluugged from the wall outlet and plugged back in to get it to even try to turn on again. Sometimes fans will kinda work after a few trys or when the tv gets moved around.

My RCA 52 inch was doing the same thing.  TV guy had me use a regular hair blower blowing very hot on the power supply board ( bottom left in back). After a few minutes the tv would come on.  He replaced 2 capacitors, charged me $100.00, plus the $95.00 service call, and is working fine now.  This was a month ago.  So far so good.  He only took the board to the shop, not the entire tv.  Hope this helps.
