JVC 42 INCH PLASMA POWER LIGHT BLINKING ONLY NO PICTURE

Blue power light blinks on both the tv and the power box. I have unplugged the unit and turned it back on...the power light comes on solid (like normal as the picture is warming up), but then after 10 seconds or so there is a clicking sound(the same sound that it makes when you turn it off) and then the blue power light blinks. Any help please? It is almost like the tv is in a safe mode and needs to be reset. Model # pd42wx84 jvc 42" plasma Thanks!

    We had the exact same problem recently with our 3 year old PD-42WX84, and the "JVC authorized service center" quoted me $323 for a new power supply assembly, with a $350 labor charge.

    Blinking blue light for the second time. They sold me a new power board ($700+) and it worked great for about 7 months and now the same thing. I bought a tuner from ebay and same problem. What component is failing on these boards and why?

No power to my Phillips 42 inch Plasma 42pf7321d/37, just a red blinking light

Most likely it going to be a power supply related problem. The red blinking light is a code for a TV tech to diagnose the problem on the power supply board itself or the board that regulates the power for the screen. Some manufactures call it a Backlight Inverter Board. A TV repair shop should be able to look at it for you and tell you which board is bad.
Replacement boards can be found at a good price at Shopjimmy.com

JVC LT-32P679 Blinking Power Light, Automatic Shutoff

1. Hold [menu] and [vol-] button on the side of the TV
2. while holding these, press the [power] button on the side of TV (NOT remote)
3. blue light comes ON and stays ON
4. wait 10 seconds then let go of [menu] and [vol-]
5. wait another 30 seconds and some type of picture should appear

I think this is right. I got it from the JVC call centers guys so sorry if I missed or messed up a step.

Plasma problems

Well, it may be your power cord, check the cord for bare wiring which is the metal hanging out of the insulation rubber. If it is then go buy another cord.
