Standby Light Blinking

I was watching tv then suddenly it went off and the Standby light started blinking continously... no code just blinking. I tried resetting the tv by unplugging it... waiting for 5 minutes then plugging it back in... still the same result... MY TV is a KP53HS10 Rear Projection TV. I downloaded the repair manual but it has no troubleshooting section in it. What do I do?

Plugging it into a power surge didn't fix the problem for me.

I had the same problem with the video also blinking for a fraction of a second.

Standby light is a signal indicating a voltage trouble on your system . It could mean a compoment is defective or a power regulator needs replacement worse is a system IC replacing. you better bring your stuff to a Sony service center and do a check on your TV system.

SOURCE: Standby Light Blinking

The service manual is for the technician who knows how to troubleshoot electronic circuits using the schematic diagram and test equipment. There is no such thing as a trouble shooting section in Sony service manuals. My best advice would be if you have no solid state repair experience, play it safe and call in a pro to assist you in this repair. Good Luck

Hi, I have a Panasonic Plasma TV and Was recently watching it when all of a sudden the screen went out. The light to the tv only blinks now and there is no picture. Any ideas what this problem isn't?

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/
Blinking codes details to many popular brand TVs are given. Surf the site with patience. If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

Some time ago, I was watching TV, then, all of sudden, the TV screen has gone, just like 'blank'. The main power (red light) keeps on blinking. Normally, it is just on, not blinking. TV doesn't respond at...

These blinks (flashes) are fault indication. By the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can vet 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.
