Hi. I posted a question earlier about a Pana CT-34WX50 tv set I aquired. When I orig got it it was totally dead. I found an open winding in the standby ps xformer. I ordered the part and replaced it. Now I get the power led blinking 5 times, pauses, then repeats. Nothing else. Theres 4-5 relays and none ever actuate. Thanks to Art for trying to help, but the standby supply ckt is not of the switchmode design. It is a simple linear supply with the only active devices being a handful of diodes (which all act like diodes !) Does anyone know what the 5 blinks signify? Thanks in advance for ANY help.

I dont mean to repeat this message, but Ive been trying to get out of the thread of my original message.
Try reflow soldering all the relays...Also I have the complete service manual. Its in an exe file 15.5 megs. I'll sell it cheap
