Flashing red center light

Recently bought a Samsung 42 inch Led tv and the picture and sound work fine but the center light on the front continuously is flashing red which is totally distracting. Is something wrong with the tv or is there a way to make it just stop.

With most flat panel TVs, the TV turn itself OFF when it has a fail electronic part and the red light starts flashing. They call this "Protection Mode". The flashing red light should be a error trouble code.
But, it's weird that everything is working and the red light is flashing. Since you just recently bought the TV, I would get it check out while it's still under warranty. Better safe, than sorry.

And did you check visually, or did you check electronically? In a power supply lots of things can go wrong. More than alone a capacitor with a rounded head.
