These blinks of LEDs are fault indications. If you wish to get more details about these blinking codes, check this link. The details are there. It is very difficult to include all those details in tables here by this window.

where is fan #3 in samsung dlp

Its a tiny fan inside the silver cabinet where all the plug in jacks are. It keeps the pc boards in the cabinet cool. Most of the time you can blow out the dust in the fan with canned air. If this doesnt work, you will need to replace it. Partsstore.com carries them. You have to get the exact match since the TV reads the amperage so computer cooling fans wont work.

This is an older model projection tv that uses a bulb to generate the light for the screen. It's normal that the bulb wears out after all these years - it should have been replaced before complete failure. If the inverter/ballast board (the one that powers the bulb) has been fried when it failed it's normal that the tv refuses to turn on - if it would do that the damage would become a lot greater.
Now the damage is done. To fix it the tv must be opened and the boards, starting with the power source and the inverter ones, tested. This is something only an experienced repairman can do, you will have to find and call one . It will be expensive, around $750 , or even more if you were unlucky and some other board was fried when the bulb failed. You now have to decide it the tv is worth all this money or you just cut your loses and buy a new one.

Hi there,

Your connections are correct, it's more likely to be the audio settings on the TV that need to be changed. There is no way of connecting a digital optical audio cable to this TV.

The audio connection you are using between the PS3 and the TV is analog stereo, so the TV audio settings need to reflect this. I suspect you need to the change the Dolby Surround setting for this to work. This can be done using the SURROUND button on the Samsung remote, or from within the on-screen menu.

If this doesn't solve the problem, please go to the SOUND sub-section of the on-screen menu and let me know what the current settings are in this menu.

Thanks,

Defective Color Wheel. Replace it.

Hello,

your TV is having a power problem. The power supply board is defective that's why the TV won't power up. Its receiving power but it cannot transfer the current to the necessary part of the TV because a capacitor, diode, etc may have been faulty. Until these bad components are replaced, the TV might not come on.

If you know about TV repairers, I would suggest that you open the TV and read the power board/panel with a meter, detect the bad component and replace it. Take note that TV stores a lot of current that can shock, so leave the TV for a while before you open it.

If you don't know about TV repairers, take the TV to the nearest repairman to fix the fault for you.

I wish you good luck.

Usually there are screws that hold the front part of the screen on. They are usually right on the edges in the back of the set. be carefull when you take the screen off. If by chance you may need to clean the mirrors inside the set. They are usually serface faced mirrors. meaning the mirror material is on the glass and can easily scratch or rub off easily.
