I have never seen this but I have notes saying TV tries 5 times (not just blinking power light but HV will come up and shutdown 5 times, the picture may even come on) being caused by the tuner. The CTC203AA5 uses a discrete tuner (not TOB) part CTF5800 so that may be the trouble. I am not sure if you can open the tuner terminals or if you need to replace it to determine the problem.
