Philips TV: LED blinking fast for a few seconds after a joystick restart

fast
Our drawing: the light under the screen, colour not named by the maker, fast blinking for a few seconds.

One Button Recovery has started. Philips says the LED blinks in fast succession for a few seconds when the TV is powered on with the joystick held; the TV then reboots into first installation.

Applies to: Philips TVs released between 2019 and 2022; the article does not cover TVs sold in the USA, Canada or Mexico. What you see: colour not named by the maker, fast blinking for a few seconds.

What Philips says to do

Philips’s page gives no step for this state: it is what the TV normally does, or the meaning above is all it says.

Philips notes the TV will then offer a software update again if it is on a network, and says to watch it for the fault coming back.

No repair advice of our own. The steps above are only Philips’s, as its page states them; semiatic gives no repair instructions of its own. Nothing here asks you to go inside the TV: anything beyond Philips’s own steps is a job for Philips TV Customer Support.
