TV WILL NOT TURN ON AND RED STATIS LIGHT IS ON NO CODES ARE SHOWN. WHAT DO I DO?
If the red indicator light on the front of your HDTV is glowing a solid red, you should first unplug the AC cord from the wall power outlet and wait for 60 seconds before reapplying power to the HDTV.
After you turn the TV on, if it doesn't power up, try holding the power button down for at least 8 seconds. That's supposed to force a system reset. If your model has a system reset button, use that instead. Press the reset button for about 20 seconds...release it and press it again for 20 seconds, release it again and the led will blink just for a minute or two. You should now be able to turn the TV on.
If after several attempts, the HDTV has not fully powered on and the LED on the front of the HDTV is still glowing solid red, you may want to reseat the lamp.
If reseating the lamp has not resolved the issue then your next step is to order a replacement lamp. Keep in mind that some off-brand lamps may only last a few weeks, so replacing a relatively new off-brand lamp may unfortunately be necessary.
