I had the same problem, changed the power board, main board and t con board. I purchased the led light tester, one string of lights was out. Replaced the lights, and 1/2 of the tv worked. I broke the black tab that connects the ribbon connector to the bottom panel. What a learning experience. Now I have to figure out how to change the ribbon connector.

SOURCE: red light blinking on power

this all problem may exist in your tv
1. High voltage problem/ deflection circuit problem.
2. Shorted picture tubes.
3. Problem in the vertical deflection circuit.
4. Problem in the audio ouput circuit.
5. Problem in the convergence circuit.
6. Problem in the power supply regulation.
7. Problem in the portect circuit.
8. The common high voltage arcing that Toshiba sets do at the picture tube.
so for getting pictures gently tap on the side of tv if it works then there may be some loose connection you can fix it by soldering

SOURCE: NO PICTURE, NO SOUND, TV TURNS ON THEN TURNS OFF

Well, Everything said on this site is true. I recently had a breakdown on the same type of TV and through this site and the comments left, I was able to repair my tv for less than $50. (Extra cost for upgrading my soldering iron that wasn't getting hot enough) It was amazing. The feeling when the tv powered up and stayed on. Credit goes to Howard and Chris Palmer for their comments. It is possible. You just have to commit and do it. Its not as hard as you might think. Thanks guys.

SOURCE: Picture & sound shuts off

I had a similar problem with my Phillips 42 in. LCD HD TV.

Here's the problem. The Power Supply Board. I opened my TV up(warranty was up of course) and found several bad capacitors. Phillips and several other companies were sold capacitors that although were highly rated failed within 5 years because of a lack of preservatives. All sorts of electronic equipment is now being effected due to these defective capacitors.
Solutions?
1. Take it in and have it fixed
2. Open it up, check the board for faulty capacitors(bulged or leaking) Buy a new Power supply board and install it.
3. Remove PSB, remove faulty capacitors and replace with compatible new ones.

Hope this helps

I have a 55" LG TV model#55LD520-UA when I turn it on the red stand by light blinks twice and the LG logo and clock flash for maybe 2or, 3 seconds then the screen goes black

Hi there. I would advise you to unplug your tv from the wall. Wait approximately 5 minutes. Hold down the power button on the tv for 15 seconds without the tv plugged in. This is what they call power cycling. If plugging back in the tv does not work; you might have a power board issue. A typical power board/circuit board repair runs from $25 to $125.

Sony bravia kdl55hx729 3d led tv turns on 3 seconds shows picture than four red flashes

Hello,
the error light sequence that you are seeing is indicating a "backlight error". Most likely you have a bad inverter board -the board that powers up the back-lights behind the display panel. They might be available via ebay if you are a DIYer, or you need to call for sony service.
Good Luck!

LG 42 LCD no sound or picture

Did anyone find out the solution for this??????? I have the exact same problem with my LG 32 LCD. I only had it for a year and a half, and the green light blinks a few times and it shows no picture. Not even a red light when the tv is off. The same thing happened a couple weeks ago and by some miracle it started working again.
