Wont turn on flashing yellow light on tv making drumming sound as light flashes I have same problem with model LCT2785TA 27in TV. Started having to unplug to get tv to turn on, now red light just blinks will not turn green! If any body finds solution please email [email protected]
Power packs can be repaired, and most time it is simply capacitors. I don't charge an arm and a leg
dmorse: repairing this requires soldering skills,
capacitors in the power pack need to be checked, that will require removal of the rear cover and the pedestal mount, after that it will be obvious if there are blown caps on the power pack you can Google "blown capacitor image" and get a good idea what they look like.
these packs can be repaired by component or by replacing the entire power pack (ebay the model).
hope this helps
the click is an electronic switch being thrown because the good/bad voltage IC is getting a bad signal from some capacitor that is making the current "dirty".
the power pack will have to be examined you will need to remove the back cover's (plural here both need to come off because the smaller lower one covers two screws that hold the top part on). the blown caps will b pretty evident they will be domed or have color leaking from the top. these will need to be removed (un-soldered) and new caps of = values soldered into the board. usually these are 25 volt at 1000 Micro faradays(mikes)or u
so there you go thast abut all l can do from here unless you want to ship tthe pack to me for repair.

I purchase a 26" LCD monitor about 11/2 years ago and recently it failed when trying to turn it on. When I push the start on the remote the amber off light turns green for a short moment then I hear a slight click (around the switch area.) and it goes back to amber. I didn't have and haven't had any trouble with the screen before this experience. It seems like it's in the on off switch, I did try to start it manually but experienced the same results, can you help?

I have the same problem. After turning it on and off numerous times, I got it to work over the last couple days, however today, it is not working at all.
I have had this TV three years. This should not be happening, but if I had to guess, it is the power supply that needs replaced. If you take it to get it repaired, they will charge you an arm and a leg.
Better just to buy another TV, only a better brand. AKAI is not a quality product.
Thanks for the help, I bought my TV Almost 2 yrs ago at SAMS Club, i went by there and they said bring it in. They found the date i bought it, and gave me full refund. With a store gift card. I got a Magnavox 32in with dvd for less than the Akia.
sounds like the same problem but I did not see the yellowflashing. I was watching the tvwhenit turned off and the red light just kept flashing and would not turn back on
I have the same problem, too. At first my TV was having trouble turning on. Today I was watching TV and it just shut off. Then the flashing red light and drumming sound. Sounds like this is a common problem for this type of TV.
