Should I get a flashing red light on my Panasonic TC-P42C2 tv even if nothing else comes on?

  • Harrie Nov 17, 2014

    It is what I already tried to explain. It most likely is not the power supply, but one of the circuits is not getting the power it supposed to get. If your technician, could not find the real issue, how do you think we could find it, without having the TV here? You have to consider if it is worth repairing the one you have, or for almost the same money a repair costs, buy a new one. Up to you

When a red LED is flashing, it most of the time indicates the TV has a defect. Most of the time it is a power related issue. Don't think it is the power supply, because there are lots of other parts involved with correct power on lots and lots of different places.
Just ask a technician if it is worth repairing your TV.

Testimonial: "technician didn't even want to look at it. it is not the power supply board. it has been tested."

    The flashing of the red power light indicates a code, depending on the number of flashes you need to identify the code and the meaning of it.

That is a known issue with the Panasonic plasma TV's, the flashing red light is a diagnostic light, you might hame issues with the internal power supply board.

Testimonial: "power supply board is good"

PANASONIC TC-P42C2 RED LIGHT BLINKS 10 TIMES

These 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 stage 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, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. Viewing it in "Mosaic" will make surf easy.

Panasonic powers on, but no display or trouble codes.

I think some sort of moisture entered in, just open the body with care dry the machine with a hair dryer.
