Check your power source (electrical outlet) and the power cable.

If everything is ok but still no indicator light, call your technician there might be a problem with the TV power supply.

to watch two defferent channel in one screen,u just need to activate the PIP feature of you tv..PIP means picture in picture.

Hi,
The TV Guide feature is active even when the zip code is set to all 0s so if you have an over the air antenna attached the TV will look for the TV Guide info and if it can not find it because of a weak signal or the chanel it is tuned to does not carry that information the TV thinks that tuner does not work which triggers the 12 flashes. Also on power up the gray box with the waring message "Plasma Display Starting Up, Please Wait" appears and the screen is blank. .Un plug the power to the Plasma Screen and also to the Media Receiver for ten minutes. Disconnect the off the air antennas both A and B. After ten minutes plug in the plasma screen then the media receiver and turn on with the remote control. You should now be back in operation.

If Problem still Remains, There are two cables that go from the media center to the Plasma display. One is the video/audio signal, the other is control/communications with the between the two units. Power off both units and remove the power (from the wall) and double check that the cables are fitted not loose - even removing and then reconnecting could rectify this problem.

If that does not correct the problem, there may be a power supply problem with the Media center on its boot up. This will then need to be serviced.

Let me know, if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Is your TV connected to a cable box or satellite? Please check the physical connection first, it could only be a loose connection or connector for the TV out.

Make sure your on the correct input that the Cable and PS# are connected to i.e. Input 3, Input 4 etc.

Since your plasma is less then a year old, I would suggest to contact the manufacturers to get it fix under warranty. If the plasma keeps shutting off by itself, that is not normal and should be repair.
