Stand By/Timer Flashing 4 Times

T.V. is totally locked out; as the only thing that is working on it is the Stand By/Times Flash button; which is flashing 4 times. Can someone please direct me as to what the 4 flashes mean & what need to be done to get it up & running. Thanks, T.

    I have a May 2000 SONY 42" Flat Screen TV, Model KP43T75. Nothing works excepts the red standby flashing light. It blinks 4 times. What is wrong with my TV? How can I fix it? How much will it cost? Is it worth fixing?

    I have the same problem on my KP-53V85, flashing 4 times, no picture or sound. I have replaced the ic1509 (LA78045) on the board. Still the same problem. I have found a replacement G-Board (A1316437A) online. Does anyone know if this will fix the TV?? I have talked to the nearest Sony Service Center, they tell me they can not get parts for repair.

It means that there is a horizontal sweep or High voltage circuit falure. It is a high voltage circuit and only a trained tech should attempt to repair these sets. A TV set is not a place to be experimenting inside of.

The unit is working but Operation and timer light flash 4 times then timer light flashing 3 times

It depends on the model as some models error codes differ slightly but this is the typical code for operation x 4, timer x 7:
VDD permanence stop protection (Electric air clean)
When the air cleanness monitor trial protection operates 4 times.
> Only clean air permanent stop.
[Diagnosis Point]
The front panel is closed.
The foreign body such as dust doesn't adhere

Our Trinitron KD-27FS170 Tv will not turn on. It sounds like it is turning on/off but no picture or sound. The Stand-by/Timer red light is flashing 4 times, pause, then 4 times, etc.

This typically means you have a bad capacitor, you can inspect for any swollen or bulging capacitors however unless familiar with desoldering boards best leave it to a repair technician.

MY FIJITSU inverter is not working correctly, the timer light is flashing continuously and the timer lights flashes 5 times can anyone help pleawe

fujitsu is a good brand.
try one of these two things:

Turn the unit off then on again. After that press test button on remote control (rear side) and look how many times now operation and timer LED flashes. Note that. Then press MANUAL/AUTO button on indoor unit until you hear 3 beeps from buzzer. That will erase error memory.
Switch off and than on unit and see if indication repeat or it is gone. If it is gone, keep using your unit.
If it is repeated post your notes here.

OR+++++++++++++++++++++FOR OTHER MODELS

5 x Operation flash and a constant Timer flash indicates an outdoor unit control error. With this code flashing on the indoor unit, you need to point the remote at the unit and push the test run button. The flash pattern will change to a continuously flashing Operation light and a number of flashes of the timer light which gives more detail on what the error is.

To get the unit to try to restart you need to push and hold the manual/auto button on the indoor unit for a few seconds then reset the mains power supply but leave it off for a minute or so for the unit to power down completely. If you are going to try this make sure you make a note of any error codes first if you have to get someone out to look at it, it will help them a lot.

FUJITSU Indoor Inverter ASTA09LCC/ASTA12LCC airconditioning - not cooling

If the operation button is flashing 8 times, the timer light should also flash 4 times in each sequence. This indicates a failure of the PFC circuit in the outdoor unit which basically means a faulty outdoor board and will have to be replaced.
If the operation light is flashing 8 times by itself, the indoor controller board may have a fault. You can normally test this by putting the mode on the remote to 'Fan' and checking that the controls otherwise work normally - louvers work as directed and fan speed changes correctly when selected on the remote.
Most likely the fault lies in the outdoor board but you should contact a tech to diagnose correctly.

Probable Lamp. If lamp hasn't bown the red Lamp Lite won't flash but other lamp issues cause stby timer light to continue flashing. If stby red lite is flashing, count the no. of times flashing - could open thermal fuse (6X flashing)
