    How many times does the POWER led flash? Dont worry about the other lights.

    1x (constant blinking) = lamps or inverters
    2x = power supply
    3x = Main unit.

I had a problem with my Sharp LC-15e1u where it will not turn on
by pressing the LARGE RED pb on top. The power button remains red. It also used to be green. Well I tinkered with it and
found by starting with the power OFF,
Press both Menu & TV/Video
Turn on by pressing the Big Red Button
The power lignt is red for one second then turns green.
The TV Then turns on leaving you on channel 58.
The volume control slides from 0-30-60 and back to 0.
Also there is a small "K" in the upper left corner of the screen.

I'm returning the unit for a Factory warrenty. I bought it on
clearance "AS IS".

I hope this helps...

Assuming the inverters are bad, its better to replace all of them at the same time (there are 4 of them). Inverter A and B are the main inverters (generally $100ish is the cost... however it also depends if the service center decides to mark up the price). Inverters C and D are $10ish each (again, depending on markup). And generally, service centers charge around $200ish for labor. So total, youre looking at roughly $400-500ish.

Again, assuming the inverters are bad, they are available for repair. However, if the problem lies with the lamps, then you are looking at needing a new LCD panel (which are VERY expensive and cost more than the TV is worth).

This kind of problem is tricky to diagnose though. Basically all you can do is try to replace the inverters, and if that doesn't help, then its the lamps.

My panasonic th-42pwd8uk tv wont power on. When I press power it clicks to turn on then clicks again and the screen never shows up. No red lights no blinking lights just a solid green light.

Check the capacitors and replace the power components. It is an easy fix if handy with soldering electronics. Tv Repairman may charge less than $100.00 bucks to fix it !
Good luck

Toshiba REGZA 40E200U 40 LCD TV wont turn on after it was working fine the night before.

Your TV needs servicing, Most likely you have a power supply related issue. Do you have any experience with electronics repair?

My panasonic pt-521cx16 starts, green light flashes, then shuts itself off again

Have you even replaced the bulb / lamp on this TV - other than the green light - did they turn solid red / orange at any point? My initial thought is you need to replace the bulb.

Unplug the TV for maybe 10 minutes, then turn it on. Sometimes these units simply need to recycle. If that doesn't work, you've likely got serious problems.

Wont turn on

sounds like the tube is out. could be the transformer but probably not. I don't recommend you try fixing this yourself.

However some rcas are funny: unplug it again and leave it unplugged for about an hour then try again.

Tv wont turn on

The green light indicates that it is getting power from the outlet ok.
The clicking is the power relay trying to turn it on but there is an internal fault forcing it to shutdown. You either have a power supply problem, horizontal output transistor (HOT) is shorted or a bad flyback transformer. In any case it can most likely be repaired by a qualified technitian. If it is the flyback it may be expensive.
