Standby light flashes and TV won't turn on. Have to unplug it and wait for a bit then plug it back in and TV turns on. Quite a delay though. Then after TV is turned off, standby light starts blinking again. Have to keep unplugging it.

Seems like a power supply problem inside the tv and when the transformer gets warm it is giving you problems you might have to get a tech seviceman to come out and have a look at it as it is not a job you should do yourself when it comes to replacing the power supply hope all goes well

Luxor tv flashing standby light

The flashing standby light on your Luxor TV can indicate several things, including:
  1. Power supply issues: If the TV is not receiving proper power, the standby light will flash.
  2. Malfunctioning hardware: A malfunctioning component in the TV such as the power supply, main board, or backlight system can cause the standby light to flash.
  3. Overheating: If the TV is overheating, it will go into protection mode and the standby light will flash.
  4. Software issues: A software glitch can also cause the TV to display a flashing standby light.
If the flashing standby light persists, it's best to unplug the TV, wait a few minutes, and then plug it back in. If the problem persists, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a professional repair service for further assistance.

TV won't turn on

It sounds that, the memory IC to your TV has damaged. This IC can be located very near to main system control IC. A very small one, with 8 solder terminals. Even though it is very small, function of it while the TV works is great. The work is a semi-skilled one, and you must have some knowledge in electronics to proceed.

My 40' vivo tv has turned off and won't turn back on but the red stand by light is on??

If the standby light is on and it does not respond, it is most likely to be a problem with the power supply . First try this, unplug and leave the set like that for a few hours. Then plug it back in to see if the tv attempts to turn on when you try to power it up. See if you hear a "click" even if it goes back to standby. Let me know what you found so that I can help you test the power supply board to confirm, if necessary.

Ive just bought this tv and when i turn it on the stand by light is flashing but i cant turn the tv on please can you help?

This shouldn't happen. When the standby light is flashing there is a problem with the television and it needs servicing. It could be the main board, the power supply, or both. This is a costly repair when a television is not in warranty. Now there are times when a television has to be turned on from the power button located on the top or side of it when first being unboxed. At a time like that the remote control will not work to power on the television. I don't believe that is the problem you are experiencing.

The troubleshooting for this is to unplug the television overnight and when you plug it back in the next day wait for the standby light to start flashing. Hold down the power button on the television set itself. Wait and see if the standby light stops flashing and turns red (or a different color). Let go of the power button. Press it once more and release it once more. The television should come on.

Even if the above works you don't want to risk something really being wrong with the television and a costly repair being needed after the warranty expires.

KDF 50E2000 WONT POWER UP POWER LITE BLINKS RED 3 TIMES THANKS

Hi,

The Standby/Power light of the TV blinks when there is any internal malfunction in the TV.
The self-diagnostic function of the projection TV will cause the STANDBY light to blink or flash when the television detects an issue. The number of times the STANDBY light flashes corresponds to a specific issue. As per the two examples below, some of the issues may be resolved without the need for service.
If the STANDBY light flashes three times in sequence, the lamp cover is not securely attached. Reattach the lamp cover to resolve this issue.
If the STANDBY light flashes four times in sequence, the TV may be overheating. To resolve this issue, ensure that the back of the TV is well ventilated.

If the flash sequence is not listed above or the light continues to flash, follow the steps below to perform a power reset:
Try the following steps to check if the issue can be resolved.
Turn off the television.
Unplug the television power cord from the electrical outlet.
Let the television remain without power for 60 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the electrical outlet.

If the television is plugged into a power strip or surge protector, remove it from the power strip or surge protector and plug it directly into the wall outlet. If the issue is resolved, the problem is with the power strip or surge protector and not the television.

If the issue continues to occur, service may be required.


Thanks for using Fixya.
