This problems is also parts of tv convergence board have dead 2 STK convergence ICS and some or all the resistors dead too.This problems the 2 STK and some or all it resistors are completely dead that why u only have red flashing light and chirping sound only.If your tv have any life function left of the tv convergence board u would have only mis alignments of colors R,G,B lines,have colors shadows or 3D pictures look alike.The shop,will cost like $300-350 to get the tv convergence board fixed also fixed this problems too.

Tod,
The little plastic button you are referring to is the IR receiver for the Remote. When the TV turns itself off, are there any flashing lights on the front or rear of the unit. Look through the vents in the rear for any flashing lights or try tuning the tv on in a dark room and see if any lights flash and reflect off of walls. If there are flashing lights tell me how many flashes and what color and I will try to look them up in the manual.

Time to replace lamp in tv.
Existing lamp in tv is dead and tv needs new lamp to work again.
Lamp replacement procedure is easy and written in user manual of tv.

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired.

Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony,Samsung, JVC, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Akai, Pioneer, Hitachi, Zenith, and others. You can get a convergenece repair kit wiith instructions from the links below.

Here are some of the most common problems with these sets...

This set should go in for repair new sets can have alot of different problems color wheel could be bad.

is there any led or small lights on front panel ... red green or flashing

Here is a quick test....

Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence section.
 
Try to adjust the red and then the blue convergence.

You should be able to move them up, down, left, and right.

If you can't move them in all directions your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem. 

Here are some of the most common symptoms.

• Screen looks 3D
• One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
• Screen is bowed in but stationary.
