    POWER LIGHT BLINKS TV WILL NOT TURN ON UNTIL LIGHT STOPS BLINKING

  • Anonymous Jul 02, 2008

    I had no problems with this tv set at all, but had a few months of not using it and one day pluged it in to use as a pc screen and the blinking green light, but one day someone noticed it not blinking and it turned on, we left it on for 5 days straight, but once turned off it started again. months later after loking inside at c21 nothing looks damaged, and pluged it in and a few hours later the light stopped blinking and I refuse to turn it off yet. any other type of solution to fix this as you can plainly see the TV is 100% fine once turned on.

    Power LED at the bottom of the unit flashes off and on. Power supply seems to be the proper voltage. No life in any mode.

I found a solution, Heat. When the set is on and heats up it stays on, but once off for the night it gets cold and can't start, try using a hair dryer on full blast and put the heat around the back top vent like structure and wait for the light to stop blinking, this only takes about 2 min or so

I am having the same problem and I noticed that the on/off button seems to stick
I get it on and it is fine but next day I have trouble with it again until I get it on again and it plays for hours

OMG - I was so skeptical about the hairdryer thing, but it worked! It stopped blinking, the light steadied and I pressed the on/off switch and the tv work. What the heck...thank you so much....

  • mendye Mar 31, 2011

    Great idea...the hair dryer worked, but what's the long term solution? Do I have to use a hair dryer every time I want to turn the TV on?
