PROTECTION SHUTDOWN
Self Diagnosis
Supported model
Critical voltages and circuit operations are monitored by the CPU
on the main board. If a fault is detected the Self-Diagnostic function
in the TV will force the TV to shut down by the CPU. The monitored
circuit in which the fault occurred will cause the CPU to flash the
Stand-By LED in groups of repeating sequences. The number of
blinks in these groups identifies which voltage or circuit caused the
protection event.
Not all of the available protect codes are used in every model.
For example, models that are LED backlit do not use the 4-blink
balancer error as this circuit is found in models that are backlit with
fluorescent lamps. The following contains the protect circuits and
diagnostics codes used in the models listed in this manual.
