TV has been working great for the past 6 years, this morning when turning on the TV nothing happens except the standby light flashes about 9 times on and off. No click like I usually hear when turning on...
Hi Dave,
We have had this same problem twice now - the first time under warranty (no problem) and now currently. The 9-blink error code refers to needing to replace two diodes on the G board. Specifically, D6301 and D6116.
The warranty time, the repair guy came and resoldered the new diodes onto the G Board, reinstalled the board, and was on his way. We had no problems for the next 3 years.
THIS time I ordered the two diodes from Andrews Electronics (www.andrewselectronics.com) am removing the G board myself and taking JUST THE BOARD to a local TV repair guy. This is a LOT cheaper than calling Sears or taking the whole TV to the repair guy. Here are the links to the specific diodes:
D6301 - http://parts.andrewselectronics.com/search/electronic-parts/parts/7/6-500-567-21.aspx
D6116 - http://parts.andrewselectronics.com/search/electronic-parts/parts/7/8-719-081-97.aspx
They are a heck of a lot less expensive than other places and the customer service I received was great!
I hope this helps!!
