Question:

 Why does my TV blink standby light when powered on and how can I fix it?

 

Answer:

The standby light blinking while the TV is powering on is normal. If you're experiencing issues with your TV turning on, try the following steps:

 

Replace the batteries in the remote control.

Ensure there are no obstructions in front of the TV that may be blocking the infrared (IR) signal.

If you were using a universal remote before, try changing the code set in the remote.
