The flashing light indicates something is wrong. Have you tried pushing AV reset button on the front panel of the TV. You may even try the little pin hole reset by the power button too. I think you may have bumped or, vibrate it to hard in the move and, caused the lamp or lead wires to become lose or, unseated. You may have even damaged it. Did you move this TV when it was still warm? Is the light blinking fast and, can you hear anything going on inside. Usually the DM board fails or, a few capacitors need replaced with this model.
If you still can't get the TV to turn on after the reset buttons have been pushed. Can you read the blink code. It should blink, blink, pause, blink, blink, blink. That would be a blink code of 23. Count the blinks in between the pauses. Let me know what code you get. If it just blinks real fast it is probably the DM. I kind of think you may just need to re-solder the leads. A DM cost about $250 with labor. When you plug back in and turn the TV on, let it blink for a few minutes, it might come back on. I'll wait for your response to give further instructions.
try this ... if there is a reset button on your 'front' control panel..maybe 2 - 3 positions to the left of your blinking timer light..
try inserting the tip of a mechanical pencil or tip of a straighten paperclip into the 'tiny hole' of th ereset button ...hold pressure on that button until yout blinking light starts blinking RAPIDLY .. this
rapid blinking should continue for several seconds or a minute.
then it should stop .. may even go off ... now ..hopefully.. you will be able to turn your set on
Did you try unpluge from the wall, and repluging back after 10 min.
Also run the self diagnosis by pushing the menu and device buttons on the front and let me know the code?
My Mitsubishi WD52725 will not turn on...the timer light is blinking. We pushed the reset button, unplugged tv. Just got off the phone with Mitsubishi customer "service." After answering numerous personal questions, and being on hold for several minutes, I was told that the only solution was to push the reset button. Duh! We'd done that several times with no change, which is why I called them! BIG WASTE OF TIME!!!!
Can you please supply us with the make and model as well as the blink count of the green light. That count should be indicating the problem circuit. Once that info is posted, we should be able to give you more details and possible solutions.

i hve the same problem. I turned on my Sharp Aquos lc-32d62u HDTV last night for the first time, but it is black and a blinking green light.
did you find a solution?
You have a common problem in the DM (Digital Module), more specifically the DM power supply. There are four electrolytic caps in that supply 16v/1000uf that are bad and likely buldged from heat stress. Replacing these caps and the E2P module, a small stand-up board further back on the main DM board should restore normal operation...
You might be lucky enough to have a tech come out and simply replace those caps in-home. It's not a really big job for a qualified tech.
Hope this helps!
