When I turn the television on, the red comes on, there is a clicking noise like it wants to come on and off. Audio comes on but no picture. Then audio goes intermittent. My question is what is wrong? Is it worth fixing? and can I do it myself?

If this tv is a Samsung HCM4215W with the symptom you described you are likely to have fluid leak on the board. Sounds like a classic fluid leak problem since the audio does come on and then going intermittent. If you find fluid from the tube(s) on the board then the set could not be worth fixing unless you can break up the fluid with degreaser spray. The fluid is conductive and will cause intermittent or shut down altogether the set. Look for the fluid as a clear substance. Also you may have a bad proscan board (module) Comes on with audio and no picture then on/off REPLACE PRO SCAN MODULE BP95-00077A. Do a search online for part for availability. But look first for the fluid leak.

Hi I have a sony kp-53HS10 TV. When i turn it on it use to make a clicking noise and than the tv would turn on, but now the clicking noise is gone and nothing comes on. A red light under the tv stays on....

Sounds like a Power Board / Video Board issue - stand by power is still ok - and why you have a red light - but the set is unable to power up the panel to drive a picture. Or the video board is the issue an is no longer processing the image to your panel. Based on the clicking noise - I lean towards the power board as the issue.

TV wont power on, clicking noise and flashing standby led

Sounds pretty bad to me, I had a computer monitor that did a similar thing when plugged in after blowing, it's not a good thing. I didn't even bother to mess with it. You may have to replace the whole power board or at least have a whole handful of pieces to re-solder. It most likely isn't worth it unless your other tv's are under 30" and you don't have a lot of money ;)
