Question:

Why does my TV blink standby light when powered on? What can I do to fix it?

Answer:

It's normal for the standby light to blink when the TV is powering on. However, if you're facing issues with powering on the TV, try these steps:

Replace the batteries in your remote control.

Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the infrared (IR) signal between the remote and the TV.

If you were previously using a universal remote, check whether changing the code set resolves the issue.

Please note that intermittent issues can be challenging to troubleshoot. If the TV continues to struggle with turning on using the remote, you might need to replace the remote control. For further assistance regarding remote control troubleshooting, click here.
