Hi My samsung tv wasnt turning on. The red light is just blinking
mervinrs, this could be a multitude of things. the constant blinking (no pattern) is indicative of an error with the power management system. The quickest way to test is by disconnecting the main board from the power supply board, plug in the power supply board, after that you should see some lights in the screw holes if the power supply is good. If you do not, then you can either move on to the mainboard. Worst case scenario would be a bad panel, which can also cause this error. It might help if you post some images of the back of your TV with the cover removed as well as images of the different boards. Use this guide for that. Of course, a bad capacitor is always a possibility as well:-)
Most likly it’s the power supply or the buffer boards or booth. Also it could be failled capacitors on the mail logic board. If it’s more the 4-5 years old it might not be worth fixing.
Change the batteries in the remote! It fixed mine
Simple problem turned out to be a faulty remote control which had got stuck in sending mode. Taking out the batteries or moving the remote control to another room fixed the flashing red light problem immediately. I ust need to buy a new remote control.
if you can find the power source that directly plugs into the TV. Disconnect overnight and reinstall.
Well, the answer to my problems was the main board and t-com board. But I ended up changing all 3 board because I purchased the whole kit.so now I have spare parts just in case.

Same question: blinking red light and tv won’t turn on. It barely turned off two nights ago just suddenly. I’m not sure what I’m really supposed to be looking for.
