Philips E-Box FTR9965 Blinking Red Standby Light

Switched the E-Box on and instead of the standy light going green all it does now is flash/blink red. any ideas? The Philips plasma TV will not operate now - although if I connect my PC to the screen it works fine so there is no problem with the screen.

Mine was the same, took it to comet, fixed it within a week and gave me a warranty. Thirty pounds call out fee and another forty five pounds when they bought it back fixed, highly recommended, not like the idiots at philips who couldn't be bothered

Hi, my TV is starting to develope a problem & I have traced it to the e box (mine is FTR9964). I had the screen repaired in January (would'nt start from cold) cost was £156 inc vat. Anyway this time its the ebox & since we are going digital next year I thought I would try & do away with the e box by using one of these http://www.js-technology.com/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=33&osCsid=c05e56ff6e909a4b42d53af48a5940ae I managed to buy one on eBay for £30, so fingers crossed it should be problem solved.

KDF-60XBR950 Red light blinks 5 times

Those blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

The Power Light is Red

yeah, should stay red when unit is turned off, indicating there's power but it's doing nothing.

Per user manual:
Solid red - power off (standby mode)
blinking red - power off (now cooling)
blinking green - power on (preparing to light lamp)
solid green - power on

Phillips FTR9965 / 12s

The no signal message is there because the screen is waiting for a signal from the receiver, it then switches into protection mode (flashing red). The usual cause is a blown protection fuse inside the receiver.
