My Toshiba 56H80 had the blinking red light, no picture, no audio problem last week. Disconnecting and reconnecting the power cable from the wall fixed it for a week. I also tried keeping it completely disconnected for over night but it kept going into the blinking red light protection mode. I did some research and found that it may be the convergence ICs heating up. The TV did not have any convergence/picture quality problem but I went ahead and ordered the STK392-150s. Before the STK chips arrived, the TV went completely dead, no picture, no sound and solid red light. Unplugging and replugging seem to make no difference now. I am going to replace the convergence ICs but I am not sure if that will fix the problem.
Can anyone point me to what else could be wrong that could cause this and what to replace? I am suspecting that the power supply could be a suspect and if the TV does not come back after STK392 replacement I should look at that. I have taken out the board with STKs on it. I also looked at the main fuse on the power supply board (next to AC connector) and it was fine. I remember there some other capacitors and fuses that I could check on the power supply board but can't find that information now. I would be willing to replace the entire power supply board but don't know where to get a new one?
I could not figure out how to disconnect the big red wires with black rubber sleeves from the power supply board. Please help. Thanks.
