Samsung Flashing Lights

I have a samsung tv model HLR5668WX/XAA. I have replaced the color wheel and the lamp. Now the tv turns on for just a minute, then goes dark and all the indicator lights (timer & lamp & standby/temp) continuously flash in no particular sequence.

A new lamp is possible or even the ribbon cable from the wheel to the engine may be in backwards.

SOURCE: Have a Samsung DLP hln507w1x xaa. When you start

I had a similar problem with my 42 in Philips LCD HDTV. Here was the problem. My Power Supply Board had several bad capacitors. I opened my TV (warranty was expired ofcourse) and found four bulged capacitors on the PSB. Many major electronics companiesPhilips/Magnavox, Sony, Panasonic, and others were sold capacitors that failedin 2-5 years instead of 10-20. Thecapacitors fail prematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in allsorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems. Here are some options for you. 1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$??????? (Is itunder warranty?) Remember, TVs CONTAINHIGH VOLTAGE AND CAN KILL YOU! Do this at your own risk. 2. Open your TV and find PSB. (The board that the power cordplugs into) Check for faulty caps. If you find some (bulged or leaking) bad capsreplace the entire board. The entireboard costs around $250 right now because they are in high demand right now.They can be found at tv-part.com but supplies are limited. I would definitely shop around though. 3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill. Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourselfit will save you hundreds. This may be your problem. If you determine that it might be. I have a Tip/How TO tutorialon this site that may also help. Itgives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this isyour board you are in luck. Here is theLink: Fixingthe Philips Turns/shuts off on its own problem. I'm working on uploading pictures to helpguide people though the process as well. Let me know if I can do anything to help. Hope this helps and if it does please rate itaccordingly. Good luck.Kaufman605

The LED indicator is flashing/blinking we replaced the lamp and it will not still turn on. someone suggested the cooling fan? Thank you [email protected]

If Fan is running when you turn TV on and keeps running then its OK ,Ballast Board is what turns Lamp on, Is Lamp Lighting at all?
Encompass Parts Distribution has Ballast board for $62.00
Be sure to give the whole model # to TV Ending in WXXaa

Loud noise and no picture ON DLP model HLR5668WX/XAA

If it is a high pitched whine or a grinding sound it is a bad color wheel.

Not real difficult to determine and replace.

Let me know if I can assist you.

TV won't stay on

Hello Fonzell!
Regarding the tv turning, my question is, do you hear a clicking sound? if so, it's most probable tio be your ballast, that might not have enough voltage to keep on with your lamp, and that's why it shuts off.
You could try replacing it and seeing if it resolves your issue, I believe they're running around 70 dlls..
have a great one ! :)
