    LC-70LE65U 1 fast 3 slow blinks

    Odd symptoms here.

    When I plug in the set, we get a solid white light and no response from any of the buttons either on the set or from the remote.
    Now after a couple minutes of being plugged in, the set will go into the 1 fast 3 slow blinking code. I tried forcing the set on, but all it does is go back into the blinking error code.
    Now I have seen off other threads and youtube video that this code directs you to a bad Power supply. However I have a known good power supply I took out of this same model TV a few weeks back that had a bad panel. Same error code.
    Now I did go ahead and disconnect the power supply from all boards and proceeded to short PS-on to 5v standby and got the 13 volts to turn on. Did the same with the panel on and was able to get all voltages to appear properly out of the power supply except for the LED's. Could not get those to light up. Output voltage would not go above 77 volts with the leds connected and disconnected.
    took out all the jumpers and reconnected everything back up. This time disconnected the right ribbon from the T-con board to the panel and powered up the set. When I did this, the led strip still did not come on, however not only did I get the sharp logo on the left side of the screen, but the voltage was able to climb up to 144 volts output to the LED's regardless of them being connected and disconnected. They never did light up or flash even when forcing the tv and would only stay at 144v for a second or two before going back down. But at least now the voltage climbed up to 144. Now after this happened, the tv went into a 1 fast 1 slow blinking code. This usually means bad LED strips. So does this mean the main board got confused due to half of the panel being disconnected and showed the wrong blinking code, or do I have a bad panel and bad LED's? I super don't want to take the LED strips out if I don't have to for obvious labor intensive reasons but if need be I can fix them no problem
    Please advise.
    Thank you

    If you disconnected one of the TCON tabs and you had half a picture it does make you wonder if you have a panle fault. Is this repeatable?.
    What happens if you disconnect the LVDS cable to the TCON. Will the backlights flash on breifly?

      If the t-con is fully disconnected then we are back to the normal 1 fast 3 slow and the led's still don't flash. I have not gotten any flash from the LEd's what so ever no matter what I do. Yeah the same exact thing happens so I guess it is repeatable unless you were talking about repeating the flash from the LED's in which case I still haven't been able to do that.

        I'm puzzled. You said with one Tab disconnected you could see half the Sharp logo on the screen?

          Tab drivers failing can damage Tcon btw.

            Yeah if I disconnect the right ribbon going from T-con to panel I essentially disconnect half of the screen and the other half shows up. Sill no back light however or any sort of flash.
            I don't think the T-con is bad since half of the screen still turns on. Usually when the t-con goes out you can't get any picture out of it what so ever. Not impossible though.
            I think the only thing I can do is take out them damn LED's and test them all out of circuit.
            Will update on this in a couple hours.
            Anyone have any suggestions in the mean time?
            its is only $100 for a full replacement of all boards from shopjimmy, but I fear we have a none circuit board related issue here.

              Sorting out the backlights first does seem to make sense. What ReeceyBurger123 said is also a fair comment.

                  Image for power supply
                  http://assets.shopjimmy.com/media/ca...31wjqz-top.jpg


                  I have checked all 3 LED strips individually with an external power supply. I have gotten all LED's to power up properly.
                  The power supply was replaced with a known good one.
                  I have jumped 5v Stby to PS-on and panel 0n and got the whole system to boot up but still no backlight. I then jumped the dimmer, and the OFL lines and still nothing. Keep in mind the only things plugged in are the back-light and that's it. Everything else is disconnected. So why is the backlight not coming on? What am I doing wrong here?

                  regardless, I think this is a bad panel since when I disconnect the right ribbon going from T-con to panel, I get half picture to show up, the blinking code then goes from
                  1 fast 3 slow to 1 fast 1 slow. Which actually indicates bad backlight but I already checked it. By having the ribbon disconnected, I also get 144 volts to the backlight as apposed to 77 when it is connected. So the panel is probably bringing everything down. I do want to try any other options that anyone may have first before discarding this unit since it is a really big panel and I would love to be able to save it.
                  Any suggestions by any chance?

                  Thank you all

                    The only other thing I can think of is that there has been chatter about a fault with the DIM control resulting in holding the backlights off. What voltage do you have at that point.

                      75 v with the T-con fully connected and 144V with the right ribbon disconnected.

                        disconnect the corner ribbon cable on one side (cable going from the bottom edge board to the side edge board. What happens? Repeat "test" doing the other side. My guess is a bad panel is causing the main board to take things down.

                          Yeah that is what it seems like. With the right side of the panel disconnected I already had the blinking code go to 1 slow 1 fast after the screen show picture for a couple seconds. Still no back light but I could tell with the flashlight.

                          That's it, calling it a bad panel,
                          Can't afford to spend more time on this thing.

                            Sharp LC-80LE844U Blinks 2 slow, 5 fast
                            by joblo37pam
                            It's been a while since I've checked in here or needed input on narrowing down what to replace on a TV repair, but I've got one on my bench now that has me wondering. The lack of part (board) availability means I may need to do some component-level diagnostics, and a second opinion is always good when it comes to that.

                            The issue - Sharp LC-80LE844U does not display. Power light comes on for a while, then you can hear a relay click off and the light blinks twice slow, then five times fast. Service manual points to 'Panel Power Supply Error' with this code, but isn't much more help...

                            Hisense H8G not turning on, only slow blinking white LED
                            by frannyjunk
                            These Hisense H8G series (or Q8G if you are in Canada) tv appears to have a common failure of the main board. Many posts on Reddit without a solution. Mine is a 55" tv hence the 55H8G model (TV comes in 50, 55, 65 and 75". Corresponding models are 50H8G, 55H8G, 65H8G and 75H8G). Symptom is that the tv will not turn on, only a slow blinking white LED near the on button on the tv. Has anyone found a repair for the main board? I can buy a replacement main board, but would prefer to repair my main board. Thanks.

                            Hi there !

                            I'm having an issue for several weeks with my quite old K70 LUX RGB keyboard. I haven't used it for few months, and once I setup up again my desktop computer, I got several dead LEDs on that keyboard. I tried the Corsair troubleshooting thing (disabling options in iCUE, ...) but nothing changed so I conclude that for some reason some LEDs went in retirement...😅
                            Decision taken to change these LEDs as I have access to desoldering iron and binocular magnifier, I wrote a ticket to tech support, hopping to obtain the LEDs reference and... They refused to tell me 🙄...

                            I was trying to repair my tv wich previously had a blinking red led 2 times and it kept going. After shorting the sdm the blinking led changed 5 slow blinks and 3 fast ones wich in the service manual meant error 53 / the fusion chip.
                            After I heated the fusion chip with a hairdryer for 5 minutes it started working perfectly but after a day it stopped this time no led blinks even in sdm mode.
                            After probing the psu I have 3.49v and for 1 second I have at least 2 12.3v lines active the fusion chip gets warm in that second the led turns on and then the 12v lines start losing power...

                            Hi everyone,

                            I have here Pulse GL66 11UDK, when i connect charger the power led is blinking slowly 3 times after that no sign of life.
                            When i disconnect the KB ribbon and Cmos battery laptop boot without problems every time i connect and disconnect charger.
                            When i leave the KB disconnected (assuming its broken) and connect only the Cmos battery, laptop power up once and after disconnecting and connecting charger again no sign of life expect 3 slow power led blinks.
                            Tested with and without battery - same behaviors.
                            Bios cleaned ME and updated to newer version....
