Hi. I have a two-year old 56 inch HL-T5687S -- I have sound and picture, but then picture turns black and sound keeps playing . I turn off TV, wait a bit, and TV pic comes back on... then black after 2-15 minutes. I can repeat this process for a long time. I called Samsung two weeks ago and was told authorized repair company would call. Ha. Never called. Called Fios and they've been great. Sent new cables and then STB -- they say they have problems with Samsung TVs. Surprise, surprise. Of course it's out of warranty. Today, tried WII console and then DVD --which I believe are separate from new STB -- and both worked for 30 minutes or so, then screen went blank, with sound on. Is this really a TV issue and has anyone seen this problem before? I have no faith in Samsung after reading the commentaries by people with the same problem. Seems they are not helpful at all. I get the feeling that this is a problem that happens over and over again for Samsung and they're keeping it on the QT for fear of a class action law suit. Sounds like a good idea. My question: Does this seem like a TV issue now that I narrowed down the problem? What might be the solution. THANKS everyone who will reply. Most appreciative. Rob

When I turn on my HL-T5687S, the screen remains black and there are 3 dots on the lower right hand side of the panel?

My TV is (same model is doing the same thing). The manual shows that the 3 blinking lights indicate "LED may be defective. Please contact a certified technician."

Note: When I power my TV off (unplug) and back on, the TV's left indicator light is solid for less than a second ("Stadby state") then the right light blinks ("The picture will automatically appear in about 15 seconds") for about 15 seconds. This pattern is repeated numerous times (I think it was 5 times). I believe the TV must be failing some power-on test. Aftere failing 5 times it gives LED may be defective indication.

Horizontal Lines

The unit most likely has a short in the horizontal section and would require repair by a service center. Go here to find a JVC repair center in your area http://maps.jvc.com/cAscList/
