Blinking protect blinking led 7 times

These 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. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

can you please mention your tv model

This is on a protection mode.

This is a case to be handled by a qualified service technician.

power supply faulty indication

Seven blinks = High voltage shutdown (overcurrent protection). The high voltage has exceeded 33k and the unit goes immediately into safety shutdown. Check power supply regulation and horizontal circuits, otherwise send the TV to a workshop for a quote on likely parts and labour costs, then make a decision afterwards about whether it is economical to repair or not.

Usually it is either the flyback transformer, the tuning capacitors in the collector circuit of the horizontal output transistor(s) as well as the transistor(s) which could be faulty. These parts should be replaced at the same time.

Short-circuit horizontal output stage - hence the 7 blinks error code from the standby LED.

When an abnormality has occurred the unit, the protection circuit operates and reset to the stand by mode. At this time, the defective block can be identified by the number of blinks of the Power LED on the front panel of the unit.

Physically disconnect the SU board and the SD board. (See precaution # 5)

Plug in the TV and turn it on.

Does the TV shut down and the power LED

blink 7 times?

Yes

No

Replace the Panel and the SU board.

(See precaution #3)

Reconnect the SD board only.

(See precaution # 5)

Plug in the TV and turn it on.

Yes

No

With the SU board and the SD board still disconnected, remove connectors SC2 and SC20 from the SC board (See precaution # 6)

Plug in the TV and turn it on.

Disconnect the SD board and reconnect the SU board. (See precaution # 5)

Plug in the TV and turn it on.

Yes

No

Replace the Panel, SD, and SU board.

(See precaution #3)

Replace the Panel and the SD board.

(See precaution #3)

Replace the SC board.

(See precaution #3)

No

Replace the D board.

There is a sequence that you have to check to figure out which board is bad,

There are different patterns for blinking light...
10 times indicate DG board problem - SUB 5V SOS, MAIN 3.3V SOS, DTV 9V SOS and Tuner Power SOS.

sounds like your tv in shut down mode why lamp needs 2 be replaced nominal cost 120 200$

Good Day, TSIRS; Try all of these: This model is equipped with a self-diagnosis feature to help with diagnosis of shutdown problems. To activate this turn the unit on let it shutdown then press the device and menu buttons on the front panel simultaneously and hold them in for 5 seconds after 5 seconds the power LED on the front panel will blink a two digit sequence. This will be one set of blinks a short pause then another set of blinks, this will repeat 5 times. 1 - 2 = no error detected 2 - 1 = X-ray protect (high voltage or beam current) 2 - 2 = Short protect (short protect monitors low voltage supplies) 2 - 3 = Deflection protect (this could be loss of vertical or horizontal deflection) 2 - 4 = Vertical protect (usually loss of vertical from the source) 1. SHUTDOWN AT POWER WITH SELF DIAGNOSIS ERROR 2 2. CHECK FOR LEAKY C9A60 470 PF 1000 V PART # 154P400030, PARALLEL TO D9A57 ON THE POWER PCB. 2. SHUTDOWN AT POWER WITH SELF DIAGNOSIS ERROR 2 2. CHECK FOR OPEN FUSES F9A04 AND F9A05 PART # 283P043090 ON THE +24 AND -24 VOLT LINES. IF THE FUSES ARE OPEN THE CONVERGENCE OUTPUT CIRCUIT WOULD BE SUSPECT. 1. Check for 12 volts DC (AC-off detect) at pin 3 of PC9A21, if missing replace PC9A21 part # 268P058020 on the Power PCB. 2. LED does not blink at plug in. Check for 5-volts DC at connector RF pin 3 (system reset) if low or missing suspect the reset switch S7L20 part # 432P089010 on the Control PCB. 3.LED does not stop blinking after plug in. Check for 12 volts at connect or PF pin 10 and 28 volts at connector PF pin 11, if the supplies are correct suspect a problem in the DM Assembly (part # 955C230002) 4. LED does not stop blinking after plug in. Check C9B01, C9B02, C9B03, C9B13, C9B14, C9B17 and C9B18 (1000 UFD, 16V, 105C) on the DM Power PCB located within the DM Assembly. If they are bad, replace them with part # 181P734030 (680 uFD, 16V, 105C). See Service Tip VS-76 5. LED stops blinking after 70 seconds of plug in but will not power on. This model is equipped with a keyboard lock feature; this can be mistaken as a no power condition. To unlock the keyboard press and hold the "menu" button on the front panel for 10 seconds 6. LED stops blinking after 70 seconds of plug in but will not power on. Check for 4.7 volts DC at connector RF pin 4 and 5 on the Signal PCB if low suspect problems with the switches/buttons on the Control PCB part # 935D587002 7. LED stops blinking after 70 seconds of plug in but will not power on. Keyboard is not locked and key inputs at connector RF pin 4 and 5 check good suspect the E2P PCB part # 935C978002. Good Luck, big IRISH.
