Slide #9
Power LED’s Response to Shutdown Operation
When an abnormality occurs in
the TV, the “SOS Detect” circuit
is triggered and the TV shuts
down. The power
LED on the
front panel will flash a pattern
indicating the circuit that has
failed.
If the power LED continues to
blink even after the TV is
unplugged, press and hold the
power switch on the TV for a few
seconds until the LED turns off.
CAUTION: Some steps require
removal of connectors and sometimes
PC boards removal. Do not let the TV
run for more than 30 seconds while
connectors or boards are
disconnected.
