F32650/atc113ca1 pushed power button to tune on tv,,green light on power button blinked twice,then went out,tv did not start! unpluged power cord for about one hour or so..thinking tv has to reset itself..pluged tv back in to serge protector..pushed power button again..no lights on..just a loud chirpping sound..unpluged power cord ..repluged cord in ..again..same thing happened...what went wrong..worked fine before for about 3 years..on problems what so ever,untill this time...maybe because i pushed power button twice..wanted to turn tv on but changed my mind..after that i had this problem..did i do the wrong thing like pushing power button on like a computer mouse? help me,i like the tv..has xbox connector build into it...

I already figured out that my flyback transformer was bad, this is an ongoing problem with a lot of RCA CRT televisions because RCA used very cheap parts in order to save them more money, rather than making there customers happy with good quality parts, and my TV was made in MEXICO, and that my friends is why we the American people are getting screwed. (Shame on you RCA)

Try this and let me know what you find:

UNPLUG TV AND THEN PLUG BACK IN---TURN ON---GREEN POWER LIGHT COMES ON FOR A MOMENT AND GOES OFF.

PRESS AND HOLD “device” and “menu” buttons on front of tv for at least 5 seconds and then release both together.


Watch for power light to blink in a sequence:

1 blink-then 2 blinks-------no error

2 blink-then 1 blink-------X-ray protection

2 blink-then 2 blink-------SHORT PROTECTION*******

2 blink-then 3 blink---------deflection circuit problem

2 blink-then 4 blink---------vertical circuit problem


******2, then 2 is most common---usually means one of the fuses that protect the Convergence IC or IC’s is blown---set will detect no voltage to convergence IC and shut down.


SET WILL REPEAT BLINK ERROR CODE UP TO 5 TIMES AND THEN TO GET IT TO REPEAT MORE YOU HAVE TO UNPLUG SET AND TRY TO TURN ON AGAIN.


IF IT IS 2 AND THEN 2---USUALLY
CONVERGENCE CIRCUIT PROBLEM

If it is 2,2 I have START TO FINISH STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS AND PHOTOS TO SHOW YOU WHERE THE FUSES & PROTECT RESISTORS FOR THEM ARE LOCATED.

The instructions tell you everything you will need for the repair and how to do it.

You can buy all the parts needed for less than 30 dollars on Ebay (I know the best seller there) I have repaired hundreds of these sets with this problem

If this information has helped you rate this solution as I do this here for free.

If you want the instructions & photos let me know and I will post them here for free.

The tv is going into protection shutdown. It will try to power up three times, but each time it tries, the microprocessor recognizes an overvoltage, or overcurrent draw, and after three attempts it will place the unit into protection shutdown. There can be many causes of this, but the most likely one is that there is a short circuit in the high voltage circuits. You probably have a shorted flyback and associated components.

Well, no sound no picture = power supply unit
Sound no picture= flyback
picture no sound =tuner/audio logic

You get my drift?

You power supply is bad you replace it you got another new TV, with this digital conversion hitting I would rather advise you to get a nice flat panel and donate that one to Goodwill


Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/edwy_1a56970cf1ea4620

Replace your Flyback Transfomer.

This is usually an indication of a failure in the scan amplifier sections. When the scan amplifiers or high voltage sections fail, the main power supply will usually also require servicing.

It is very common that the fly-back and high voltage multiplier and also the horizontal output stage fails in these sets. Along with it, the power supply will usually require to be serviced. On rare occasions, the vertical deflection amp fails.

I had the same problem. The heater did not work in heating mode. However it was OK in air-conditioning mode. The operation light and the timer light blink twice and then the operation light blinks for 5 times followed by few seconds non blinking, then the cycle repeats again. I have read on the internet that you better unplug the power cord and then plug it again so that the heater re-sets itself. My only problem was that my heater is directly plugged to the power with no visible plug. So I went to the main distribution board and put off the power for about 20 seconds for the whole home. HOORAY!! The heater worked after that.

Unplug it from the wall, wait 2 minutes and plug it back in. if problem still exists, its probably the main pcb.

I let it go and she corrected by herself. What do you think?
