Goodmans GTV30WLCD TV - Dead apart from ticking noise&green light flashing?

NO PICTURE OR SOUND. POWER BUTTON CONTINUALLY FLASHING (GREEN) AND CLICKING SOUND.

I've seen that the fault should be U6 TL431 a three leg intergrated circuit (like a small transistor) in the power supply circuit.

How do I sort this out, is there a free service manual I can download or can somebody let me know how to go about fixing this please?

Many thanks

I'm having problems with my tv!!!

I have opened up the LCD, got the back off fine, took cover from Power Supply area now thats where i'm stuck like theres like somebody has stolen my glasses. I really have no idea what to do and how much it will cost to fix it if I do give it a go.

Do you think this kind of thing is covered on House Insurance by the way?

Please e-mail me if you wish on - dan_courtnage@hotmail.com

Tozz, can you tell me where I can get hold of the U6 TL431 chip?

I had this problem about 2 years ago and have it again now. It happens when you unplug the power lead without turning it off at the mains...

Last time i took it to a repair shop and the replaced the whole PSU which fixed it.

Hi If you still are having problem with tv leave word here. I had same problem and fixed it my self. It was the chip U6 TL431 tv working fine now. All you need is a screwdriver and a solder iron and the part . If stuck i will send you pics of where the part is and where to solder.
cheers tozz
