Picked one of these up free yesterday. The previous owner said it was working fine one day and then died with the standby light flashing 4 times, pause 4 times, pause etc etc
The TV works perfectly for around 3-4 minutes then exhibts this behaviour. Googling the flash codes points to the inverter board or possibly power supply board (less common) or terminally the LCD panel backlights (pretty rare).
Some people suggest trying the microfuses onboard the inverter, other obvious things to check are dodgy capacitors etc. Grumpy TV Repair "engineers" seem to suggest the panel backlights are duff and the whole telly should be scrapped.
Anyone in the repair trade with access to the holy grail - Euras or similar have a spare couple of minutes to suggest other things to look at on a component level basis ?
