Power light blinks fast red

The unit was working, with a high pitch noise for some time. I transported the monitor and now it just blinks fast when i plug in power supply. The power button does nothing. I actually consider myself a amateur fixer guy and have another non working unit to swap parts. I feel like i have swaped all parts to no avail. What is wrong is it possible the power supply is to blame and not a board level problem?

    I have the exact same problem , I open up the unit and have checked all the cables and the fuses. Everything seems to be in order,I will do a bit more testing later on , but so far I have no clue whats wrong.

Hello All,

The problem with the fast blinking power light is caused by 4 capacitors in the power supply unit going bad. We have been repairing this model for 4 or 5 years and this is a very common problem. We have a kit with all of the parts and directions available for $15.00 plus $2.00 shipping. Let me know if anyone needs the kit. [email protected] We can also do the repair for youif you are not confortaqble with disassembly of the ac power unit.

sounds like the projection bulb went bad. change the bulb and it should work. sometimes they make a high pitch noise when they are trying to turn on. the bulbs seem to last about 2 years for me.

Hi grade laptop makes high pitched noise and the screen is blank

High pitch noise usually means the inverter board that drives the lamp behind the LCD display. If the rest of the laptop appears to work, for example, hard drive light blinking while booting, try hooking up an external monitor and hit whatever function key that switches you to the external monitor. If everything works, you may want to replace the inverter board yourself. It is not horribly hard if you are very careful. But it is not exactly a walk in the park kind of work.

If the rest of the laptop does not appear to work, the DC-DC step down power circuit is probably shot, which will also make a high pitch noise. In this case, you will have to replace the motherboard. Replacing a motherboard is a major pain in the behind. In most case, it is not worth the trouble if you have an older model.

High pitched noise red light blinking

A high pitch noise comes normally from blown capacitors from the motherboard or the power supply. But mostly high pitch noise comes from power supplies.

You could have to open up the power supply to see them.

Verify if it is the case and replace the faulty part.

Won't power on

my d52w19 chassis itc222 as posted most of the time wont turn on and the green light flashes three times every time it makes a small noise. sometimes it does turn on and you hear a little pop and the tv fires up.  latley there is a really high pitch noise that will slightly change pitch if you move the tv or put slight pressure on the top or botttom rear part of the chassis. thanks for the help as I have seen that this has been posted before without mention of the high pitch noise.

My Moniter won't work!

That high pitched sound in one way is a very good thing. It pretty much points out the source of the problem itself. That is more than likely either a blown capacitor or transformer on the power source inside the monitor. I would rule out the power inverter for the LCD backlight because the power light will not turn on either. I have found that Samsung is very good with their repairs, and if it is a somewhat recent model they should be able to get it drop ship repaired with little expense. That can be an inconvenience, and if you do decide to replace the monitor altogether, please be eco-conscious and have the old screen either donated to a goodwill organization where scavengers like me will buy it for raw parts, or to an electronics recycling center. E-Waste is becoming a very large problem and LCDs and flat screens are a hefty piece of it.

Panasonic Th37PE30 Viera plasma stopped working

here is a complete list of all codes for panasonic tv's rgeardless of model if its panasonic it is these codes

1 Blink SOS: This shutdown operation is usually caused by a lack of communication between the A and the D boards.
1 Blink SOS: This shutdown operation may be caused by the improper connection of a SS board connector to the panel.
2 Blinks SOS: Pin 87 of the MPU IC9003 monitors the 15V line. During normal operation, the transistors Q9053 and Q9054 output a high to pin 87. If the 15V line is missing or shorted, a low is provided to pin 87. As a result, the unit shuts down and the power LED blinks 2 times.
3 Blinks SOS: IC9807 is a 3.3V regulator located on the D board. Its output is monitored by IC9003. If the 3.3V is not present at pin 86, the MPU shuts down the unit. The power LED blinks 3 times.
5 Blinks SOS: Pin 85 of the MPU IC9003 monitors the 5V line. During normal operation, the transistors Q9051 and Q9052 output a high to pin 85. If the 5V line is missing or shorted, a low is provided to pin 85. As a result, the unit shuts down and the power LED blinks 5 times.
6 Blinks SOS: Pin 90 of the MPU IC9003 monitors the status of the SC board. During normal operation, the transistor Q6581 and IC6581 output a low to pin 90. If the SC board becomes defective, a high is provided to pin 90. As a result, the unit shuts down and the power LED blinks 6
6 Blinks SOS: 6 blinks of the power LED may also be obtained from pin 3 of IC9003, the DRV_RESET input. The D board provides the 5V source needed to power the C boards. On the C2 board, the 5V is routed back to the D board via connector C20/C10, C11/D31 causing pin 3 of IC9003 to be high. If 5V is not routed back to the D board, pin 3 of IC9003 goes low. The set goes into shutdown mode and the power LED emits 6 blinks.
7 Blinks SOS: Pin 93 of the MPU IC9003 monitors the status of the SC, SU, SD board. During normal operation, the photo-coupler PC6480 outputs a low to pin 93. If the SC, SU, or SD board becomes defective, a high is provided to pin 93. As a result, the unit shuts down and the power LED blinks 7 times.
8 Blinks SOS: Pin 91 of the MPU IC9003 monitors the status of the SS board. During normal operation, pin 8 of connector SS23 outputs a low to pin 91. If the SS board becomes defective, a high is provided to pin 91. As a result, the unit shuts down and the power LED blinks 8 times.
10 Blinks SOS: The SUB5V and DT9V sources created on the A board are monitored by IC1100. If they are not present at pin 30 and 34, the MPU shuts down the unit. The power LED blinks 10 times.
10 Blinks SOS: The F_STB_15V of the P board, as well as the derived SUB5V and DT9V sources are monitored on the A board for excessive current. If a short circuit is developed in one of the supplied lines, pin 114 of IC1100 receives a high. The SUB5V and DT9V lines are also monitored for excessive voltage. When an over-voltage condition is detected, a high is also output to pin 114 of IC1100. The DT9V is provided to a DC/DC converter to create the BT30V for the tuner. If the BT30V becomes excessive, a high is output to pin 114 of IC1100. A high at pin 114 of IC1100 causes the unit to shutdown and the power LED to blink 10 times.
