Re: Seiki SE39UY04 Red standby light, not powering on

I'm not sure if it would disappear before the TV went out because I got it second hand already broken, but I know that it doesn't now. I think the LED should be blue when its working properly also.

If the LED's are bad will I be able to tell with a flashlight test? And if they are bad is it worth trying to fix at all?

Re: Seiki SE39UY04 Red standby light, not powering on



I should be able to post some later today, but in the mean time theoretically would replacing the main board AND the power supply board be a safe fix for it if the problem is the main board is not sending power to the backlights and PS-ON?...

So I have a Seiki SE39UY04, and when I plug it into the wall the red standby light on the front comes on, but the power button on the TV doesn't do anything. I have opened up the back and none of the capacitors look bulged or necessarily bad. I really don't want to throw this TV in the garbage but I'm not sure how to fix it. Should I replace the main board or power supply board and hope it works?

I can take pictures of the boards later when I'm at home, but nothing seems burnt out or in the wrong spot on the boards.
