Hello,
Strange issue with my Funai TV.
I'll say it right away: I don't know the model. It's wall-mounted, so I can't turn it to see everything, and I can't see if there's a plate indicating the model.
What I can say is that it's an LED screen, it's around 4 or 5 years old, and it has never given me any trouble before.
Now, here's what it's doing. Usually, it's off, just in standby, red LED. I turn it on tonight, normally when we turn it on, another LED takes over, green, placed next to the red one. Now, I use the remote, both LEDs blink alternately and nothing happens. I've never seen this before. Did I accidentally press two buttons at once and trigger some process? How do I stop it? And if that's not it, what else could it be?
Thank you for any advice you can provide. In the meantime, I can't use it...

Hello
I'm not familiar with it and I've never experienced that flickering.
But I resolved a TV freeze by pressing the off then on button. I hope for you that the TV's button is accessible, not the remote control's (I never knew the cause).
Another time I unplugged/replugged the two powerline adapters to resynchronize them.
A third time it was by turning off/restarting the Orange TV decoder that triggered a firmware replacement at startup. Surely a bug on their part: usually it happens without me having to intervene.
In all three cases, I didn't have any consequences or recurrence of the freeze.
If you have the manual lying around, check if the meaning is there; I had a similar case with a washing machine where a light that usually has a different meaning started blinking and indicated a malfunction. Conveniently, I was able to buy and change the part myself without having to take the machine to a repair shop.
I'm also thinking of an "unconventional" power cut to the TV by unplugging it, which is not recommended but something we sometimes do when nothing else works.

I looked for a power button, but I couldn't find one.
I will try the powerline adapter trick. It's true that it's been connected to this system recently, and I've never seen this issue before. Coincidence or connection? I don't know.
Right now, I have a socket powering everything, including the decoder, and I've turned everything off. So the decoder should reset when I turn it back on, probably. I mostly use this TV with a DVD player and a multimedia hard drive, but regardless of the device connected that delivers the signal, the TV needs to be on.
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check it out again and try to understand if I can.
whatever connected device sends the signal, does the TV need to be on?
I have a DVD player capable of switching the TV to the correct source automatically when it starts playing, but it doesn't turn on the TV.
At first glance: yes, the TV needs to be on.
When the powerline adapters were desynchronized, they completely stopped blinking. Currently, everything is plugged in and working but the TV, DVD player, and TV decoder are turned off with the remote (the clock is displayed): the powerline adapters are blinking a little.
check the power cord, remote control batteries, and the on/off button.
The button for this model has a somewhat complicated operation. At times, the volume is active first, then other choices are accessible. See the description in the manual.
Without knowing the model, it may not necessarily be the operation of yours.
