Tv will not turn on. when the power switch is turned on, instead of going to stand by, it tries to turn on. there is a click, the led light goes to green,the screen flashes a faint "AKAI" like when it started normally. then there is a click and led flashes four times. the screen goes blank and led just keps flashing. I cannot find a service tech in my area and would like any advice you could send my way.
Absolutely, the blinking light is a code for the service tech to use to diagnose what the problem is.
Call AKAI to help diagnose the code specifically, so you can change the correct part!

Have the SSB modual replaced. the problem is the talk back to the power supply shutting down the system. it may need prior authorization to order but best guess is SSB after that it 's the digital board. have a tech determine the ture problem. the best thing to do is call the akai for the nearest repair or go to the web sight. some of the akai products are made by Funia.
1) Is the TV plugged directly into an outlet or is it plugged into another device, such as a cable box or audio receiver? If it is, try plugging directly into a wall outlet. Sometimes, devices like cable boxes don't provide enough current to power on more powerful newer TVs (like Plasma, LCD, etc) .
2) Check the manual to see if the flashing LED is a code for something you need to troubleshoot. The number and color of flashes may correspond to a problem that may or may not be easily fixed.
Hope that helps. Let me know how you make out.

the tv has always been plugged into a surge protector, this problem just arose recently. the owners manual dos not have a troubleshooting section for a blinking code.I've read other people having the same problem with other plasmas. Has anyone come up with a solution.
I have an Akai PDP5006H plasma tv. I have had it for about 2.5 years. It has always been plugged into a surge protector. Last week the tv will not turn on. When the main power is turned on, instead of going to standby. the LED light flashes 4 times and goes to green, like it is triing to start. The screen will flash a faint "AKAI" on a blue screen just like a normal start up from stand by. But then goes blank end the LED light just starts flashing. Can you give me any sugestions on what the problem could be.
The red standby LED is lit. When I press the power button, the LED changes briefly to green, then goes out, and then returns to red. The TV never turns on, and the LED does not flash a error code.
