george crosten Posted on Jan 15, 2014

I have a sharp lcd tv model #lc-32sb21u, it will turn on and work fne for roughly 5 minutes then the picture goes blackand a few seconds later the auio goes dead ending with the power light flashing a

The tv is two years old and in fine physical shape. once the light starts flashing it will turn on using the remote but each attempt lasts a shorter period of time until I have to hold the power button on the tv down until it turns off then start over.

Unplug the unit for 1 minute, replug and try again. If it doesn't work the power supply is faulted and it needs professional service.

SOURCE: POWER AND OPC LIGHT BLINKING GREEN

The condition of your TV called power supply overcurrent shutdown that"s why you hear a click. The TV is going into a protection mode to prevent further circuit damage. That's why it will not turn on or not powering up. I would concentrate on the power supply section board. Bad regulation of the incoming voltage could caused this issue although,there is a capacitor across the incoming line and nuetral.Maybe its leak or dry up and cause the problems,change it out with one of identical rating . Although now you are getting into dangerous area,especially if you have no electronic experience background. It could be also be a loose ,crack or cold solder joint,a blown fuse,fusible links or other component .It could be one of several boards.Unfortunately the level of sophistication on these TV make it virtually impossible to diagnose them further without taking them apart and probing around with a multimeter and other tools.This TV is handy enough to take to a repair shop find a good one.You will probably have to pay $75 to $100....

Hope this may help you..

SOURCE: Sharp LC-26D43U Power light flashes and unit won't turn on?

It's a power supply related problem. When it turns itself off, this it called protection mode. The TV automatically turns off to protect other parts form being damaged.
The most common problem is the Power Supply Unit or the Backlight Inverter Board.
You may have to take the TV to a repair shop to find out which one is bad. Paying a repair shop to replace the board for you maybe more than the TV is worth. If you let them diagnose it and you replace the bad circuit board yourself, it would be cheaper.

Here's a place I use to get parts for TVs:

The problem is the repair shop may charge you double or three times of what the part costs at the web site link above. Then, plus labor. I just want to save you money. :)

Backlight invertor is most likely cause of the problem, in rare occasions defective CCFL lamps could cause similar symptoms. Replace defective parts, reset lamp error counter and you good to go.

Sharp tv difficulty starting. Will come on and immediately go off .Audio stays on screen black. this happens over and over. Banging on the on/off button works sometime. Once on it stays on indefinately....

I have not worked on this particular model. But, I wopuld certainly say you have a couple of bad capacitors in the power supply. You will need to remove the back cover. Weak or bad capacitors will cause your TV to do exactly what you describe. You may note these capacitors will be bulged. The values may or could be 35 volts at 1000Mfs. Once again, I do not know the exact values. In most cases these capacitors in many other brands will have this value. This info is a very good start for repairs. Hope this will clue you into a repair. Thanks for asking and show all hands of support!

Hard to get started when powering up to watch.

definitely, something wrong with it. TV shouldn't take more then a few seconds to start, I suggest, while it still under warranty, give Sharp a call to get it fixed.

I originally purchased a LC-32SB24U and wound up needing a replacement because there was a black line going accross the top of the screen. Sharp didn't have any of that model so they sent me a LC-32SB21U...

Don't feel bad. You didn't do anything wrong.
They sent you a TV with a bad power supply board for the
screen. The TV is trying to power up the screen, but it can't. Because of a defective part somewhere on the power inverter board for the screen. That is why the power/opc light is flashing.

I would call them back and and make them replace the TV.

Sharp Aquos LC-32D41U pictures problem

I have had exactly the same problem. Sounds daft but by not using the remote, and only using the power on/off switch on the TV itself, it is working perfectly...no idea why
Use the remore for changing programmes etc but not for on/off
Try it anyway because I know how annoying this is
