  • TV overheating 
  • Board’s worn-out, defective, melted, or broken internal components
  • Aged or physically deteriorated board
  • The motherboard is getting inadequate electricity 
  • Defective power supply source 
  • Damaged or disconnected power cable or loose wire connection 
  • Warped, swollen, or burnt areas on board
  • Blown fuse 
  • Faulty electrolytic capacitors

Solution:

Remove your Hisense TV’s back part to check its malfunctioning motherboard and replace the faulty board. The other quick solutions to the above troubles are: 

  • Prevent power surges and short circuits by installing the dynamic voltage stabilizer 
  • Avoid running your TV for a long time. Or don’t plug other electronic devices with your TV in the same outlet to prevent your TV’s overheating.

2. Lost Network Connection

Your TV’s lost network connection is another answer to your question, “why is the red light flashing on my Hisense TV 11 times”. Your Hisense TV loses Wi-Fi connectivity when it keeps disconnecting from the router. 

Thus your TV fails to get the signal to operate and stops turning on. The main factors responsible for your Hisense TV’s lost network connection are:

  • TV or router’s inappropriate location 
  • Stocked-up network cache

  • Other device’s network interference or signal interruptions 
  • Due to the short range, your Hisense TV fails to build the Wi-Fi connection 
  • Low-quality internet signal 
  • Malfunctioning TV or TV’s internal setting issue 

Solution:

If your Hisense TV frequently loses its internet connection, you should first restart your Hisense TV and router. Unplug your TV and router’s connection from the outlet and wait for 5 minutes. Then re-plug both connections.  

After restarting your Hisense TV and router, check the firewall settings on your router. However, if resetting doesn’t fix your TV’s network connection, you should follow the easy fixing ways below: 

  • Check and ensure a strong connection between your Hisense TV and router. 
  • Follow the manual instructions, and place your TV and router at an appropriate distance.
  • Clear the network cache 
  • Disabled VPN and changed the IP settings. 
  • Power cycle your router to remove its glitch. 
  • Replace the non-functioning router and malfunctioning TV
  • While connecting your TV with the Wi-Fi connection, ensure no other electronic device uses the same internet connection and remove the signal interference. 
  • Ensure your Hisense TV’s perfect network connection
