Hello, regarding my Kuro LX5090 with the blue blink issue:
The TV was repaired and got a new life :)
Thanks.

PIONEER KURO 60 INCH LX608D
April 3rd 2023
I never knew anyone was still supporting the Kuro until I stumbled across a listing on the Kuro Store for a 60 inch LX608D Kuro. I always wanted one of these, so I purchased it straight away (that was back in October 2023). For the last 6 months I have been busy constructing my entertainment room to accommodate it (almost finished). The wooden panels in the picture, either side of the TV, are shutters that will have mirrors covering the side that faces the room when closed. So, the room will have a totally different feel when the doors are closed and the TV is not visible. Kuroking's support has been excellent throughout. Thank you very much

I bought my KRP-600M brand new in Hong Kong for over 10,000 and brought it with me when I moved to the UK a few years ago. Before I left I researched for someone that could service it in the UK in case something went wrong. Fortunately, I found Kuroking.com... Just before new years day it developed a power on issue (no standby light), and true to form Kuroking understood the fault and successfully repaired it. Happy new year!

I bought a used LX5090 for a good price with a blue blink issue so I googled for assistance to repair it myself because I work in the tech industry. However, Kuroking's repair kit, with a step-by-step guide, made more sense and is guaranteed to work. It is now hanging on the wall and working like a charm! Thank you for all your help! You are a pro!

I originally bought the LX6090 from Kuroking in the summer, but when I saw Kuroking list a KRP-600M for sale this Christmas, I instantly did I part exchange. I cannot tell you how many years I have wanted an M series Kuro. They are so rare. Thank you Van, you made my Christmas.

"repaired whilst i waited"
1st November 2023
Had my rare LCD Kuro KRL-32V since 2009. I am reluctant in getting a bigger TV because the KRL fits my living room perfectly. Plus, the picture quality, especially when connected to my PC, is spectacular. However, a few days ago it wouldn't turn on, and the status LEDs would blink in a weird combination of AMBER and RED. I googled for info on the fault, but I got nothing, so I decided to give the KuroKing a try because he pops up in all the search results. Straight away, he had the solution, so I brought it to him and he repaired it as I waited. An Excellent service, that I highly recommend to all Kuro TV owners.

My LX5090 Kuro would go to Standby for appx. 60 seconds, then the RED standby light would disappear, and the TV doesn't turn. I bought a Power Supply Unit from another well known Pioneer seller on ebay, and attempted to fit it myself, but that part didn't appear to work. So, I googled, found the KuroKing, then brought my Kuro to his base in North West London. He thoroughly inspected it, confirmed the PSU was not working, and that my TV is fine otherwise. That was a huge relief because I was thinking that I may have damaged my TV whilst installing the PSU. Therefore, I bought a PSU from KuroKing, and got a refund from the first seller for the faulty PSU. A very reliable chap, that knows everything about the Kuro.

HELPS TO FIX THE 'BLUE BLINK' ISSUE
"repaired whilst i waited"
3rd of October 2023
Bought my pioneer Tv from curry’s years back had a problem with standby switch , TV would not switch on sometimes , had to call out curry’s twice on different occasions to fix the problem finally it was done on the second time, few years down the line same problem, so this time I googled and I found someone who could repair Pioneer TV’s , so I rang …… spoke to a gentleman explained the problem he gave me two options either he can come down and repair it or I can bring the TV to him at his workshop and repair it while I wait, agreed a time and date took the TV to him dropped it off went for a coffee nearby with a friend after about an hour or so received a call that my TV is ready to pick up! Could not believe it my TV was ready so quick and it looked like brand new he had cleaned it and my TV was spotless! Lovely guy really polite and professional, great customer service, I’ve recommended him to all my family and friends and would definitely recommend to anyone who needs to repair their TV

NEW HDMI CABLES?
Had a rare "TV starting up" error, that the so called experts on the forums, mention is caused by a bad digital tuner. Sympton: The Kuro would be working fine, displaying a freeview channel, then suddenly the 'TV starting up' error will appear on the screen, then the display will turn black. This would happen like clockwork, between 10 and 30 minutes of being on. I decided to exchange my Media Receiver for a professionally refurbished one. Unfortunately, the new box appeared to have the same fault, so Kuroking replaced it with another one. Whilst speaking over the phone, Kuroking told to me to disconnect all the HDMI cables and try it with just the aerial attached. Amen! It worked, with no errors. Meanwhile, Kuroking thoroughly tested my original media box, and it was also clear of any 'TV starting up' faults. Conclusion: One of my HDMI cables was faulty and was preventing the Media Receiver from operating properly. TBH I'm not surprised because I have had them cables since 2009 (I have replaced them with new HDMI cables). Kuroking gave me back my original Media receiver, and gave me a refund (minus something for his expertise & time), because my original media receiver was fine all along. I'm so happy that my Kuro is working properly again.
Fantastic service and support, highly recommend

LIMITED EDITION PIONEER KURO LX6090H
I have one of these 60 inch 'works of art' in my living room, and wanted one in my Bedroom. I did a search, and first found Kuroking's ebay account, then was directed here. I was overjoyed that they were still supporting the Kuro. The warranty and support included, gave me extra confidence in making the purchase. It was delivered promptly, and they assisted me in placing it on the wall. I also have an older Pioneer Purevision Plasma TV, that had a rare 10 RED BLINK start up issue. Kuroking knew the correct solution, and repaired that one as well. A genuine seller. Many thanks

8 BLUE BLINKS CALL OUT SERVICE
Originally, thought it was the media box that was at fault, but it turned out to be the plasma display part (KRP-500P) that was blinking blue. At first, the part Kuroking replaced was fine, but an adjacent board that connects to it was faulty. He decided to take the display back to his Lab for a thorough examination and service. He kept us up to date all along, and returned the display the following morning, then demonstrated our Kuro fully working 100%. The picture looked sharper. It now works perfectly with our Apple device, that use to cause problems before.
Thanks again for your perseverance.

LX5090 BLUE BLINKS REPAIR KIT
June 13th 2023
Purchased the LX5090 Blue Blink Repair Kit on the 12th June, and it was delivered superfast the next day. Took appx 2 hours to repair (I took my time to be safe), the step-by-step installation guide was extremely helpful. Especially, how to release the ribbon/cables safely and correctly. Big thanks for your help.

My 50 inch KRP-500A plasma display had some bad image burn and there was some intermittent shutting down. I originally wanted it repaired, but Kuroking mentioned they had some 60 inch KRPs that had just been professionally refurbished. I always wanted one of these, but they cost £6000 when they first came out. They offered me a great price with brand new side speakers and the original gloss 'piano black' table stand. Super fast delivery to me, Very nice and helpful bloke A++++++++

Let me share that the Pioneer Kuro 60 inch LX6090 is one mean quality piece of Television technology, and to top it off, Kuroking customer service was exemplary. Delivered the item safely (practically wrapped up in cotton wool), set the item to work making sure it was connected correctly. This piece of kit is just unbelievable. It was a pleasure meeting up with you. Thank you. Take Care

LX5090 9 BLUE BLINKS REPAIR
8/3/2023
Had my Kuro from new, It developed a rare 9 blinking blue start-up issue. I couldn't find anything online about it and I thought my beautiful Kuro was finished. However, when I spoke to the Kuroking, all doubts were put to rest. He offered me various solutions; I opted for the Call Out Repair Service. I prefer quality things and the OLEDs don't appeal to me because the image looks false and they are built too flimsy. Van is very professional and wore gloves as he handled the Kuro to keep it clean. He knows his stuff and is someone you can trust.

KRP-600A --MEDIA BOX BLINKS BLUE AND WONT START UP???
1/1/2023
This Christmas, I suddenly experienced the blue blink, non-startup issue on my media receiver box of my 60 inch Kuro KRP-600A, that I purchased from Harrods(10K), owned since new (2008), and is still aesthetically in mint condition. I Googled for a repair, and at the top of the list was KuroKing.com. I contacted him and he understood the fault immediately and offered me two solutions: (A) purchase one of their already professionally refurbished media boxes, or (B) repair of my own media box. I chose the latter because I previously had my Kuro professionally calibrated and wanted to retain my ISF settings.
What stood out about this amazing service, is that, not only did Kuroking successfully repair it, but it was done much faster than I expected. Van collected it from me on the 29th December and returned it to me on the 31st December, set it all up and demonstrated it working; I entered the new year on a high note. Kuroking said "it could of been sooner, but we like to run a minimum 48 hour load/heat test before signing them off as repaired". His technical knowledge and enthusiasm are reassuring. This is a very high quality service, for those that appreciate the finer things in life...

My Kuro 600M failed and the dreaded 8 flashing blue light sequence began.
Decided to google and came across the KuroKing.
After a phone call with Van, a visit/repair was immediately booked.
Van arrived on time after a 2hr drive and proceeded to fix my treasured plasma.
I highly recommend Van, as he is a top bloke, and certainly is the KuroKing.

I attempted to repair my beloved KRP-600P plasma panel (the display part of the KRP-600A TV System) that had the dreaded 8 blue blink issue. I bought the part from another Pioneer Kuro supplier, but I after I fitted the part I now had 15 blue blinks instead. I was recommended the Kuroking by the supplier, who happened to have a mint condition 600P plasma panel with very low hours. I decided to part exchange my one for that. Van delivered and installed it, and the picture was even more stunning than usual. Great service!

When I tried to turn on my Pioneer LX5090 I found no picture and 15 red blinks. After a bit of research I discovered Van's website. He said that this was the most serious of the blinking codes but "don't worry I can fix it". Sure enough he did! Not only that but he provided excellent and a super-friendly service. The TV had to be picked up for Van to work on it at his workshop, but it was returned a matter of hours later. The TV is now back to normal thanks to Van. He certainly is the Kuro King.

I spoke to Van first, but instead I chose to repair my KRP-500P display myself with parts I bought elsewhere. However, it failed again after a month. I decided to contact Kuroking again and he recommened to me one of his professionally refurbished, mint condition KRP-500P plasma display (with all new parts) that had only done 6.5k hours (of 100,000 hours optimum brightness half life) and includes 1 year warranty. It was also delivered and installed. A very professional and effecient service. I highly recommend this service and I should of chose him the first time...

Paid for my media box and KRP-500 display to be checked by a local TV repair company twice, and they claimed that there was nothing wrong with it. However, the TV would shut down every 30 minutes and the display status LEDs would flash RED & BLUE. This went on for many months until I googled for help. I saw the Kuroking website and persuaded him to come to Leicester. As soon as he arrived he entered the log of my media receiver box, which displayed the fault. I immediately purchased the Professionally refurbished media receiver that he had brought along with him. Finally, me and my family can watch our beloved Kuro in peace. TV has been fault free for 10 days so far. Thank you Kuroking

The Kuro King came out to me on February 18th, in the middle of the terrible 'STORM EUNICE', to repair my 7 year old LX5090 Kuro. The TV now works as new. Van was very professional and provided me with a 1 year guarantee for peace of mind. I was very impressed with the service. Top marks! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kuroking.

I bought one of the first Pioneer Plasma’s back in 2006. It was spectacular and is working perfectly even now. But I wanted a larger screen. I didn’t like the modern 4k TV’s, as in some scenario’s the contrasts are too extreme. So on the off chance I Googled Pioneer 60” and found Van’s website. I bought one almost straight away. I’ve had it 6 months and every time I turn it on, I smile. The picture is perfection, which doesn’t come across as good in this iPhone image, but believe me, it's awesome!

Van certainly is “The Man” as far as I'm concerned. He worked tirelessly at his workshop on my old KRP-500P Kuro display that was signalling blue flashing lights - and intermittent shut down squares - and an annoying habit of not being able to turn it off!! One comms board solution tried, but another short discovered, but no matter he quickly offered a solution - swap out my TV for a professionally refurbished one with way less hours. He even cleaned out my dusty media receiver box - all at very reasonable price, I must add. Van even refitted my old TV bezel surround, so that my wife could have her original that had special attachment points for her floral decoration (as in attached picture). This bloke is the business, he is intelligent, resourceful, honest as the day is long and clearly willing to go the extra mile and more to leave the customer very happy indeed. What a refreshing change to meet a real gentleman and expert in his field.

My LX5090 got a case of the Blue 8 flashing indicator light. At first we could wait a few hours and the TV would turn on again. Then it stopped.
Not wanting to buy another TV and having already done a little research into the problem. I contacted Kuro King. Thankfully he was able to come out a couple of days later with the replacement parts and get the TV up and running again.
Great job, friendly service and highly recommended.

PDP-S65 SPEAKER BAR
FOR 60 INCH LX6090 KURO

First of all, thanks for those great PDP-S65 Kuro speakers. I couldn't find them anywhere. At 147cm long, It is a delicate item to ship. However, your packing was FANTASTIC; not a scratch! As a bonus, I did not have to remove the screen from the wall (It weighs over 50kg) to attach the speaker bar. I also possess the 50 inch LX5090 KURO. I just love the quality of the Kuro picture. It has an emotion not found in today's Oleds. Thanks again!

In the first instance Kuro King offered to repair my 8th generation 42 inch Pioneer display. The price was good and the repair was going to be speedy. However, as soon as Van showed me the mint Professionally Refurbished 9th generation 50 inch LX5090 Kuro he had available, I decided it was a no-brainer to swap and upgrade. I also picked up some mint condition Pioneer Kuro side speakers (PDP-S62) to complement the display from him. I never thought I would be lucky enough to own one of these beautiful devices and my family are delighted; most especially my son who suffers from migraines and doesn't get along with either LED displays or projectors, but for whom the plasma screen is not a problem at all. Van is a great guy. He's a passionate and erudite advocate of the Kuro.

I am a repeat customer of the Kuro King. I originally bought a media box for my older Pioneer plasma TV a few years ago.

I am extremely well pleased with the result because now the picture is perfect. In fact, it looks better than before.

I finally found someone to repair my much loved Kuro LX5090 that was blinking blue and not turning on. I called, and the Kuro King came straight away and fixed it swiftly. I decided that I wanted it placed on the wall in my games room, so I bought the original Pioneer Kuro slim fitting wall bracket kit (KRP-WM02) plus the Kuro under bar speaker PDP-S63 from the Kurostore; which was fitted at the same time. Now I can watch the soccer on Sky sports in style. The Pioneer SRS WOW sound is awesome. No need for a Sonos!!

Many thanks, Van, for your excellent guidance and foolproof tutorial for removing and replacing the circuit boards for my KURO 5090. Living in rural France I had no access to a TV engineer to fix the 8 blue blink problem. With your help I was able to remove and replace the two circuit boards in the Pioneer KURO repair kit. The KURO is now fully restored to its original glory. This was the first time I'd had the back cover off the KURO and my, my, what a quality build this set was.

I purchased the 8 blue blink call-out service for my 60 inch KRP-600A Kuro, that has been used practically everyday since new, over 10 years ago. The screw holes of the Allen key style screws that secured the wall mounting arms to the back of the Kuro were completely worn and were over torqed. They wouldn't budge. No pliers could grip them because the heads were circular and domed. I thought I was out of luck...but the Kuro King persevered and got the screws out with a drill. He then performed the repair swiftly and successfully. Phew!! Afterwards, he went in the service menu to check the usage hours, and said that I hold the record for the most hours used on a Kuro from the many hundreds of Kuro that he has serviced over the years. The picture above is from the service menu and shows the hours of 58,768. He informed me that although that's a lot of usage, I will still get another 10 years of optimal performance out of this Kuro; easily!! He added, the Kuro is guaranteed to hold its original brightness performance for 100,000 hours. Afterwards the brightness may dip a little bit, but you can always turn up the brightness in the settings by one notch to compensate, so this will not affect anything. The Kuroking is a champion!!

I had to get my Kuro repaired quickly because my wife was getting upset because she couldnt watch her favourite programmes. I couldn't find anyone locally that knows about the Kuro. I googled 'kuro 8 blue blink' and found this treasure of a website. The way the Kuroking methodically went through the steps to diagnose the fault, gave me confidence to proceed.
I ordered the repair kit, followed the instructions and now my old Kuro works again. Happy days!!

It was time to call the Kuroking because we could no longer reliably watch our favourite Pioneer Kuro LX5090 TV; it would frequently blink blue when you tried to switch it on. We have other TVs in the house but nothing compares to watching movies on a Kuro. I thought he was going to say, he could repair it next week, but to my surprise, the Kuroking said he could be with me within a few hours. I said, "yes, please!!"
All repaired now, and I am a very happy chappy. He is the genuine article!!

Hi Van,
Just found time to say thanks for your help & assistance back on the 5th December - the Kuro got safely back home & put to great use over the last couple of weeks. We are very happy with it.

Stay safe & wishing you every success !

I had the dreaded 8 blue blinks on my 50 inch LX5090 Kuro that I have had from new. As soon as I spoke to the Kuroking on the phone, I knew he was the right person for the job. Infact, I was so impressed with the repair and his pleasant personality, that I decided to purchase one of his 60 inch professionally refurbished LX6090 KURO as well. The Kuroking even helped me to hang it on the wall; perfectly centre and level, and ensured that all my source cables were fitted correctly. Afterwards he went into the colour settings and tweaked them. The picture on both of my Kuro is now 10 times better than before. It's good to meet someone that actually knows what they are doing.

I'm a hands on type of guy, that has worked in the electronics Industry for many years. 11 years ago I bought the 60 inch LX6090 Kuro because I wanted the best; and it still is!!
I was going to attempt the repair myself, but after seeing him perform with all the critical/delicate steps and procedures, let alone the shear weight and size of this Kuro, I am now glad that I opted for the Kuroking '8 blue blink call-out repair service'. He handled it with care and wore gloves to keep the TV clean. A true professional and a genuine nice guy. Now our family can enjoy watching movies this Christmas. Thank you

Thank you for all the help and support to fix my most treasured Pioneer Kuro KRP-500M. I highly recommend members to purchase the KURO TV SUPPORT PLAN to gain access to all the step-by-step high-res pictorial installation guides created by Kuroking, plus lots of discounts and more, on all purchases from the kuro store.
The KRP-500M is a beast!!

Thanks for the excellent install guide. I have replaced the boards you sent and the TV is working well.
From the initial call to you, I knew I had found the right person.
Again, many thanks for the excellent service and resurrecting my Kuro.

Smooth transaction. Thank you for safely delivering my 60 inch Kuro to my home. The picture is so stunning, even with standard definition. Watching a bluray movie or Netflix makes you go, "ahhhhhh!!",
as you experience an audio visual delight.

Very happy with your swift service and recommendation to swap my original tv out for your Professionally Refurbished LX5090 KURO. Van clearly loves Pioneer Kuro's and his passion and expertise are greatly appreciated. Will definitely recommend him and use him again

We accidentally cracked the glass of our Kuro. We googled for help and were directed to KuroKing.com. After a pleasant and informative chat regarding Kuro TVs and tech, I was convinced he was the real deal and someone to trust. He safely delivered to us a mint condition, professionally refurbished (all new parts) KRP-500P plasma display. It is exactly as described in the Kuro store. Infact, I am so satisfied, that I have also ordered the 60 inch KRP-600A TV system from the Kuroking. What I like is his attention to detail and his genuine passion for the KURO; which is something I also share.

My KRP-M01 media receiver had the dreaded 8 blue blinks and I needed someone that could offer me a same day service. I didn't want to post it out to be repaired in case it got damaged in transit. I wanted someone that was nearby so that I could drop it off myself. The Kuroking 'ticked all the boxes'. He also had fully updated boxes readily available, so I choose that option instead and kept mine as a spare for the future. His studio workshop is like a Kuro emporium, with all types of Kuro on the wall and all around. It was a pleasure meeting him. This is a man you can trust.

PIONEER PUREVISION PDP-507XD
31st August
I am a proud owner from new (13+ years) of a Pioneer Purevision PDP-507XD. We love the warm vivid and bright image it displays and It looks classy on our wall; unlike the new thin bezel TVs that look flimsy and cheap. A few weeks ago it started to take many attempts to turn on and then it would not start at all. It would just blink blue 7 or 8 times.
We googled "Pioneer TV repair" and found KUROKING.COM
He knew the fault right away and came and fixed it quickly.
Much appreciated, Josie

LX5090 8 blue blink repair kit
Just a quick email to say thank you for all your help and I now have a fully working Kuro again. It was exactly as you said it would be. With the help of your detailed guide I installed the board I bought from you and have had it running for a week now with no problems and even think the picture looks better than it did before. Once again, thank you for all your help.
Thanks

I had been searching for years for someone to repair (8 BLUE BLINKS) my two Kuro LX5090's that I paid over £5000 for back in 2009. Pioneer don't support them no more but these TVs are way too good to give up on. So, I decided to give google one last try last week, and Amen!! I found the Kuro King website. Finally, someone that is still dedicated to the service and support of the Legendary Kuro. All those wires and circuits inside look so complicated. You really need to know what you are doing. Cannot thank the Kuro King enough for coming to our rescue

I was recommended by a friend and I am very satisfied with the Kuro Kings repair service. Everything went smoothly. He arrived on time and went straight to work like a true professional. Now, my LX5090 Kuro works beautifully. We have owned our Kuro from brand new and cannot find another TV with this type of picture and build quality. I highly recommended the Kuro King to all Pioneer Kuro owners. Money well spent!!

I contacted last week with the 8 blue blinking lights fault on my 50 inch Kuro KRP500A unable to fire up. My message was answered within an hour, and after a couple of questions I was given two options. Decided to go with a replacement panel instead of a repair, and despite my concerns regarding posting a panel it arrived yesterday as promised and now the Kuro is back in perfect health. Truly great service, and it actually cost me a lot less than I was expecting! Recommended 100% and any future issues I won’t hesitate to use the Kuro King!!

The part you sent fixed my 8 Blue blinking LED (start up fault) on my cherished KRP-500P plasma panel.
I cannot thank you enough for your professional advice, diagnosis and excellent support services. Really appreciate.

The Kuro King literally went the extra mile and came to my home and fixed my KRP500A system. He gave it a full overhaul. A very professional and polite person. 10 out of 10. Highly recommended.

Absolutely perfect!! A true professional. The Kuro King came to us and replaced the plasma panel on our faulty, limited edition, gloss white KRP-500PW.
Now it works properly.

I always wanted a 60 inch Kuro and when I saw that the Kuro King was selling a mint condition LX6090, that he had professionally refurbished with all updated parts, I immediately clicked on 'buy it now'.
I Couldn’t be happier! Delivered perfectly, great condition, superb seller.

This man is a God send for all Kuro owners! I had a few power surges at my home and my Kuro LX5090 developed some bad image retention and pinkish sparkling especially on white backgrounds. My Kuro is my baby, had it since 2009, and it would of hurt to have to bin it, so we took it to the Kuro King's, workshop. He immediately knew the solution and repaired it while we waited and now my Kuro performs perfectly again with strong sharp vivid images. I am so happy now. Thank you

“The Kuro King - accept no substitute!
My Pioneer LX5090 started suffering from the dreaded 8 blinks and intermittently switched on which meant I had to resort to my 32 inch Panasonic as a stop gap. The quality of the set and not wanting to send a perfectly good set (bar this minor fault) to landfill, made me look for a repair option
An email to the King resulted in a phone call which really showed his passion and knowledge for the Pioneer units and we booked a date and time for the repair. I had previously made enquiries elsewhere for repairs and no-one was prepared to do a home visit to do the repair (or were experts with the Pioneers), with one saying “we will ensure it is strapped down in the van”. If you have one of these sets they are not only extremely heavy, but the thought of them being moved brings one out in a cold sweat.
The King turned up on Sunday (great service there) and started to get to work. Two boards were changed - one at fault and the other as a precautionary measure, which really makes sense. The set was then remounted and all tests carried out, ensuring everything was 100% before leaving. The set is now back up and running beautifully and I can't thank the King enough for his work.
I can highly recommend the King if you are suffering from problems with your Kuro. A top guy who knows his stuff, is committed to keeping these sets alive and is prepared to come to you."

issue: not starting, panel led blinking blue
I highly recommend the Kuro King to anyone who would like to continue enjoying their Kuro TV. He is totally committed to keeping the Kuro alive. His passion, knowledge and enthusiasm is a joy to experience, as he carefully dissembles and reassembles the system, then plugs it in and "voila", I have a fully working Kuro again. Thank you so much.

The Kuro King fixed my beloved Kuro with the dreaded blue blinking issue while I waited at his base in Park Royal. His extensive knowledge of the Pioneer Kuro allowed me to feel totally assured as he dissembled and re assembled the set as if he could do it blind folded. My Kuro performs better now than it did before. This guy is a legend...

My Pioneer LX6090 is still pride of joy at home. All due to Kuro King: Very friendly guy. I told him the symptoms over the phone and he understood exactly what was needed to be done. At short notice on a Sunday, we drove down to his workshop in Park Royal and it took less than 30 mins to have the Kuro up and running perfectly - Excellent Service, very happy indeed
