Hi Tim
In my opinion
No... the LED's are doing their job
Error reporting
Modern TV's are computers and try to indicate where a problem exists.
Does it need a Firmware upgrade?

Red green or orange lights are on or blinking on the TV

Samsung led tv quit working. Replaced all the boards inside, main, power, Tcon and WiFi. Still all i get is blinking red startup light

If one of the led lights in back light strip fails, the power supply senses the current change and shuts down. The LED strips have to be tested to see which one failed.

LG 55LN5700 LED TV. Screen went black, audio works. Flashlight test, able to see pic moving. Replaced LED strips & pwr board. Try turn on, LEDs blink 1x and red light flashes 3x. Let it sit 8hr

Replace the jack wires going to the LED strips. Or look for the one bad jack wire going to the LED's and fix it. Use a volt meter on ohms to find the bad wire.

Have a Samsung 65” led tv. Model # UN65H6203BF. LED back light blinks and red status light blinks when power plugged in. Changed Power Supply(used but good), no Change, all still blinks. Can unplug main...

You may have a back lights problem.

To test the back lights, you need to disconnect the cable between the main power supply & the main board, apply the AC power to the power supply, if the back lights are not light up, or blinks, the back light are defective.

Vizio 420i-A0 Backlight issue. Screen was dark in the center. Checked the LED light strips. Only top and bottom strips were working.

It could be a defective LED strip you bought. You may swab the top & center strip to check it out.

Sony Bravia KDL 50R550A six blinking light issue.

Those blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.
Search the site by type in the "brand name" to your device, in the "Search box at the top right of the display window of the Homepage" to get gathered related posts.

  2. Open the hood and make sure the 4-wire power supply cable is fully connected to the power connector on the system board.
  3. Check if a device is causing the problem by removing all attached devices (such as disk drives and expansion cards), then power on the system. If the system enters POST, power off and replace one device at a time, repeating the procedure until the system power failure reoccurs. Replace the device that caused the failure, then replace each of the other devices and confirm that they are functioning properly.
  4. If you cannot isolate the failure to a specific device in the previous step, replace the power supply. **
  5. Replace the system board.*
Pre-video memory error. Power LED blinks red five times, once a second, followed by a two second pause, and five simultaneous beeps are sounded
  1. Reseat the DIMMs in the memory slots on the system board, then power on the system.

  3. Replace 3rd-party memory with HP memory.
  4. Replace the system board.*

If the hard drive LED turns green, then:

  1. Make sure the voltage selector (which is located on the back of the power supply) is set to the correct voltage for your region.
  2. Remove the expansion cards one at a time until the 3.3V auxiliary light on the system board turns on. If removing a card turns the light on, replace the card and then see if the system works.
  3. Replace the system board.*


If the hard drive LED does not turn green, then:

  1. Make sure the computer is plugged into a functioning AC power outlet.
  2. Open the hood and make sure the power button is securely fastened in the power harness and that the harness is connected properly to the power connector on the system board. In other words, make sure that the power button is making contact with the power circuit.
  3. Make sure the power supply cables are connected properly to the power connectors on the system board.
  4. Check to see if the 3.3V auxiliary light on the system board is not turned on, replace the power supply. **
