Will not power on but red blinker is on.

My tv just turn off on its own the other day and now when i try to turn the tv back on, i get no picture or sound. however the red blinker does come on. could this be a power supply problem? i have a few friends who have purchase the tv around the same time i did(1999) and they are experiencing the same problem.

could you give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost to repair a problem like this? would you recommend this as a DIY or should professional technicians take matters?

We have the Toshiba model MD20P1 and it shut off in the middle of a show we were watching and when we try to turn it back on the little red little comes on and the picture shows up for a split second, but it will not stay on.

Your set likely has a bad convergence ouput ic that has caused a fuse to blow. The convergence output ic type number is STK392-110. These can be replaced with STK392-120 or STK394-160. It is good practice to replace both ic's because the one that is not defectie now will likely fail soon. The fuse may be a small glass fuse or a pico fuse. One is for about +28V and the other is for about -28V. Also to the left of the heat sinks for the convergence output ic'S you will find (2)small wires that have black insulation on them. It is very possible that one or the other of these have bad solder connnections.

TV won't turn on. No picture or sound. Please Help !

If the red light won't come on it is not getting power.First,try plugging it in to a different outlet,or unplug one of the gadgets you know is working and plug the tv in there.You are simply switching.If you know that there is power coming from the outlet and it still won't come on then you'll have to check the cord;don't go much farther than that without expert help.

Samsung lcd tv ltm1755b won't turn on (power light stays red)

Problem: Samsung LTM1755B with only a blinking yellow LED when you try to turn it on.

Solution: I just had one of these come in. I opened it up, and found the U501 capacitor a little suspicious looking, in that it had a deformed top. It was a 470uF 16V electrolytic 105degC 10mm x 12mm. I replaced it with a very good quality 1000uF 16V electrolytic 105degC 10mm x 16mm Nichicon UHN1C102MPD. After that repair, when I tried to turn it on, the LED was yellow for a second, then green, then I got a picture, and it appeared to work great. I then asked the owner a week later how it was working, and they said it was working just like new!

Power button Flashes

For the first one, please list the model number and count the blinks. Also, can you please post each problem separately. It will get too confusing trying to address 3 sets with different but similar problems.
Thanks,
