I have 4 of these exact same units and 2 of them are giving me problems with shutting down after about 10 minutes of normal operation, while the other 2 work perfectly fine. After the units shut down, the green power led on the front goes to a flashing red and I have to disconnect from wall socket to power up again. The process repeats after I repower up the TV. I took it to a local and he gave me some garbage about needing a new main power supply pcb. I dont think it has a separate pcb for the power supply. As I dont have a service manual or scematic on this unit, can anyone help me in pinpointing the problem?
Thanks in advance.

I have this tv. I just sent it out for repair. It's going to be the power supply in the tv. It's going to cost me roughly 500.00 to repair. If you don't have one, be sure to purchase a very strong surge protector for it.
