Blue light blinking-

I've had this tv for a little more than a year and i seem to have the same problem. Came home one day and turned the TV on the sound came up for a brief second and as far as the picture is was nothing but a reddish blurr and also lasted for a brief second, after that the screen went blank and the power light(blue light)started flashing. I'm so disappointed. I've made some phone calls to tv repair shops and it will be about $300 dollars, as if the TV wasn't expensive to start with problems so soon.

I would say you are lucky to get a pretty fair price, sounds like a convergence problem- if the tv is a projection wide screen. worth the investment Julio [email protected]

Wd65737 Mitsubishi 65 in dlp tv, Does not go past blue welcome screen

Can you call up the settings menu? Check to see if the ANT-1, DVD, and other ports are properly activated. You may need to re-scan for channels and to activate the HDMI ports for your other devices. Regards.

Samsung sp-r4232 power button blinks 4 times but tv wont turn on

I have this TV. My father in law tried to turn it on one day and it started making a clicking sound and never came on. So he went out and bought a new tv and gave it to me. It came on when I brought it home and worked for a couple weeks. Then just the other day it stopped working. When you hit the power button the light around it blinks four times and then you here a clicking sound. TV does not come on. Took the back panel off and I don't see any damaged caps or fuses. b435b80e-6d09-419f-a021-9b8a430e0a74.jpg

I also have this model. A few months ago, when I turned on the tv, it told me my lamp was in need of replacement. just yesterday, my tv did the same as you....the blue light flashed and then the lamp light kept flickering. All I can say is your lamp needs to be replaced.
