Have you tried a factory reset? I had a similar problem my TV was stuck on standby (red light only) I did this

  1. Turn on the TV.
  2. Wait approximately 40 seconds for the TV to completely start up.
  3. On the TV remote control, press and hold the UP ARROW button
and it worked!

The red light should be blinking a code. For example it will blink 4 times pause then 4 times pause or 5times pause 5 times pause, whatever the error might be. Let me know what it is and then we can help more.

SOURCE: standby light flashes 3 times

A 3 flash pattern indicates that either the lamp is not seated correctly or that the lamp door is not latched properly. It can also be a fault with the switches that sense whether the lamp is seated or the door is latched. Try reseating the lamp and relatching the lamp door

Switch the TV on: Press the power switch A on the front of the TV. A green indicator on the front of the TV lights up when the screen is on. If the indicator is red, press the

Samsung HLP4674W - changed bulb - still no picture - lights flash

If the lamp has been replaced I would think the Lamp ballast would be most likliest followed by the color wheel and then the Digital board. You can get any part needed for your model at www.tvrepairworld.com just leave them a email they respond quickly.

Unplug the TV for maybe 10 minutes, then turn it on. Sometimes these units simply need to recycle. If that doesn't work, you've likely got serious problems.
