Westinghouse SK-32H540S LCD TV Turns Itself On - Appears Random
Just got a replacement Westinghouse SK-32H540S LCD HDTV and it turned itself on at 2 am Saturday morning and 8 am Sunday morning. Otherwise seems to work fine.
I have tried to do that, but cannot find anything but a "sleep" timer which is off. I have also done a reset of the TV to factory settings, but it still turns on at 8 am.I have tried to do that, but cannot find anything but a "sleep" timer which is off.

This tv turns itself on during the night. It happens 2 or 3 times a week, usually early in the am, around 2am. This tv turns itself on during the night. It happens 2 or 3 times a week, usually early in the am, around 2am.

The problem is cause by the transformer on LIPS inverter (Power supply + Inverter board). You could see an obvious burn on the 1 of these transformers ( There are total 3 black transformer on this board). The part number is 4302H. It is available online at http://www.lcdparts.net/TransformerDetail3D.aspx?ProductID=2775
Take a strong light and put it up against the screen. Do you see a faint image? if yes, then your backlight has failed. Could be a lamp, inverter or power supply issue. Not for DIY'ers.
Hello, two things, one try using the TV with the native resolution of 1366 X 768, and secondly try updating your video card. If you are not having this issue with the TV on the other inputs than most likely it is a settings issue with the laptop. Please rate this comment if it was helpful.
This is not the fix for this TV. I guarantee that none of the capacitors exhibit the common bulging characteristics of a faulty capacitor. The common answers to everyone's questions are to replace the capacitors. Most likely the culprit is the inverter board.
Hello, it sounds like you need to replace the inverter board, I believe this model has LIPS board which is the power board and the inverter board put in to one single board. You can find price and availability for parts by emailing [email protected].
Try leaving the TV unplugged for 30 minutes so the TV can reset itself. If that doesn't work, most likely the TV has a power supply related problem. Or, it maybe something simple like a blown fuse inside the TV. But, I can't say it's 100% the problem because I can't actually look at the tv over the internet. If the fuse doesn't fix it and If by chance the TV is still under warranty, go that route. If not under warranty and If you have some electronic experience, you can purchase a Service Manual over the internet and diagnose the source of the problem with the power supply and fix it by soldering in the new part. The Service Manual will give you circuit diagrams, test points, and part# lists. Usually, cost under $20.
