    Samsung LE40M87BD red light flashing.

    I have a Samsung LE40M87BD

    Was turning on and off.

    Replaced the 5 caps on the power supply.

    Replaced the eprom.

    When switching on it flashes 5 times then comes on
    and is fine.

    Put old eprom back in same issue. ( just incase was issue with epprom)
    reset the epprom
    Now it too flashes 5 times then turns on
    and runs fine.

    No longer makes the samsung meldoy either.

    Any thoughts why it is still flashing ?

    Other wise the tv has been working fine all day..
    had it on test.

    Update just to test a theory
    Let the tv cool down and then turned back on

    Now it is turning on and off again..

      Is your TV the model with another board between the mainboard and the panel? If so, the fault resides in the Micronas BGA processor on that board. It is called the SUB MAIN".

      A working TV? How boring!

        Samsung UE43KU6400U Flashing Red Standby Light
        by Bloopeta
        Have a Samsung UE43KU6400U that will not turn on, just continuous flashing red standby light.
        Power button does nothing

        Have unplugged the mainboard, and backlights illuminate.
        Have tried removing panel ribbon cables one at a time, and that makes no change.

        With mainboard unplugged, all voltages from powerboard seem ok, but with mainboard connected, they never quite reach full voltage, and drop and raise in a constant loop (in time with click noise from mainboard.

        Using backlight tester, I get 63.6v on both sides, so seems like no bulbs...

        Samsung UE46EH5000 - Flashing red light but not turning on
        by Phil289
        Hi
        I aquired a Samsung UE46EH5000 from a lady that said it was turning on and off so she just purchased a new one.
        On plugging into the mains and turning on i get a solid red light.
        On using the on/off button or remote i just get a flashing red light in a pattern of flash/flash gap flash/flash gap flash/flash etc.
        Opened it up and disconnected the main board from the power board by removing the connecting ribbon cable with the hope of getting either a 'no backlight' or a 'working backlight' but got neither,i just got a blinking backlight that turned on and off randomly...

        Samsung plasma - flashing standby light
        by 7ony
        The TV is a 2013 Samsung plasma, model # PN60F5300AFXZA.

        Snagged it up in non-working condition a couple years ago. Previous owner said that sometimes he could get it to come on after repeated tries but other than that he couldn't get it to turn on.

        Personally I haven't been able to get it to turn on at all. The standby light comes on solid when plugged in, but pressing the power button results in the standby light flashing once every 4 or so seconds. No "click" noises, no light from the panel at all. Just the flashing standby light.

        No visible...
