When I press the power button, the TV will turn on, but it will not display anything. The power button will blink on and off, however, and the TV is on. At first, I would hit the area around the power button and the picture would work. But now, it wont work at all and the light just blinks on and off.

Re: TV is on, but not displaying picture.
This unit is known for bad relay contacts. It may be that tapping in-on-or around the relay at Sr41 might restore the pic temporarily. If so, replace it - p/n#23146558.. If not, you may have some poor solder joints that will take a little bit more investigating and possibly shop time if you're not up to the task.

Check to make sure the device you're trying to use with your TV is plugged in and turned on. While it may seem like a silly oversight, it is possible that you switched on your TV and didn't actually turn on your DVD player, gaming console or whatever device you're trying to enjoy. If you tried to use a remote to turn on the device, check that the batteries still have a charge and turn on the device using its built-in power button.
TIP
The problem may be your input device itself. Check your TV with other devices and see if it displays them properly. If it does, contact customer support for your device for more detailed troubleshooting instructions
WRONG INPUT CHANNEL
Make sure that your TV is on the right input channel for the device you're trying to use. When your TV isn't switched to the right channel, no visual or audio input from the device will display on your screen or through your speakers. Turn on the input device and press the Input button on your remote to cycle through your input channels until you see the device's display on your screen.
AV CONNECTION PROBLEMS
If you're on the right input channel and your device is turned on, there may be a problem with the physical connection between the device and your TV. Make sure that all cable connections are secure, and also that all cables are connected to the In ports on your TV and the Out ports on your input device. If you're using a connection that has color-coded plugs, make sure the connectors are inserted into their appropriate color-coded ports.
If you're using an HDMI connection, make sure that the cable you're using is compliant with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection, especially if your TV and input device are both HDCP-enabled. HDCP is a copy protection system that prevents the copying of digital video and audio content as it travels over the connection. Systems connected with non-compliant cables won't display any video or audio conten
FROZEN TV
Periodically a TV may freeze up, showing that it's still turned on but not actually displaying any information from your input device or the TV's menu system. To fix a freeze, power cycling is the best solution.
TEP 1
Turn off the TV by pressing and holding the Power button on the cabinet until the TV powers down.
STEP 2
Unplug the TV from the wall power outlet.
STEP 3
Press and hold the Power button on the cabinet for 30 seconds, and then release it.
STEP 4
Plug the TV back in and turn it back on using the Power button on the cabinet or your remote control.
HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE FAULT
If everything is correctly set up, powered on and on the right channel and you still aren't getting any picture or sound, there may be a hardware or software fault in your TV. The best way to check is to press the menu button on your TV or remote and see if the on-screen menu appears. If the menu doesn't appear, contact repair

Note: How to reset video output settings
If you are attempting to change to an HDMI cable from a different video cable or if the video output settings do not match those required for the display in use, the screen may stay black. If the screen stays black for more than 30 seconds, you may need to reset the video output settings of the PS3.
To reset video output settings:
Turn the PS3 system off by holding the Power button on the front of the console till you see the power light turn red.
Then hold the power button on the front of the console for at least five seconds until you hear a second beep to turn the system on again. The video output settings will automatically be reset to the standard resolution.

TV "Input" or "Video" channel for the HDMI port
You need to know the TV "Input" or "Video" channel for the HDMI port on your TV. For instance, if your TV has multiple "Input" or "Video" channels, (i.e., "Input 1", "Input 2", "Input 3", etc.), you will need to toggle through each "Input" channel on your TV until you find the correct channel that displays the HDMI picture. This is important to remember, especially if you do not see the HDMI picture after you connect the cable and configure the PS3 settings. Please refer to the TV instruction manual for more information.

just spoke to Samsung support and it turns out that the freeview tuner had froze and needed resetting. To do this put TV on standby and then push in series these buttons on the remote: 'info, menu, mute, power' the TV will then turn itself on and display a menu. Press the 'down arrow' untill you've highlighted option 12 - 'reset' and then press the 'right arrow' to enter the option. TV will turn off and when you turn back on it will start in 'plug & play' mode as if new. Set the time and country options and then it will perform a complete scan. I've just retuned mine and all back to normal. Hoorah!!!! :-)
