    How do I reset my 32" EMERSON LCD TV If it will only stay on for 2 seconds or so?

  • ylharris Aug 16, 2008

    And I paid $10.00 for that smart assed answer, I want my money back.

  • ylharris Aug 16, 2008

    The solution that was offered corresponds with what Emerson's custmer service tech suggested. With this information I can now speak with a little knowledge with the repairmen that I am taking the unit to.

    Thanks again

Hello,
You must look for its sleep up timer that might have been changed by some one.. By restoring its setting you can get out of this problem..This will be a better choice for you or if you wanna reset it then leave it unplugged for 4 hrs and then plug it back but according to me this wont help you in this case..So try to change the timer value using the manual of the tv if your not sure how to do it and finally if all this fails then The fault might be the inverter that drives the backlight. There are 8 stages in it,if one of them was faulty, the screen will try to start up, but if the inverter chip sensed something was wrong and shut the TV down. In few case it might need a new inverter transformer which doesnt cost a lot, but you can sometimes get reconditioned inverters for a reasonable amount...Thank you..

Please post back how things turned on for further assistance...

Kind Regards!!...

    change the timer settings. it is set that way so it is happening.

  • Anonymous Aug 15, 2008

    its definately the sleep timer.for sure.but probably you cannot adjust the timer in 2sec time.it would be set by mistake by someone.so if under warranty call the company person it will take not more then 10 minites for him to set the timer off.and if not under warranty you will be charged not more than service charge.

    he will have to set the timer manually.by opening the tv unit.

    the tv is absolutely perfect,.

    pls rate the solution if helped by it to know your problem. thanks.

I have a LCD Color TV, but when turn on, green

The most common problem is the Power/Backlight Inverter Board. There are 6 mini transformers on the board, one goes bad and the TV will turn itself OFF automatically for " Protection Mode". Replace the whole board or replace the bad mini transformer.

Whole board, BA71F0F01042
Mini Transformer, LTZ2PC0MS008

TX-47F430S seems to be the common problem of going back into standby. Powers up shows the logs and then goes back to low power. The light never goes blue. The fiber optical laser turns on and stays on but...

This is known as SLEEP MODE / STANDY MODE problem.

Simple solutions:
1. Get a power surge protector / strip.
2. Plug your TV power cord to the power surge.
3.Then turn-on your TV using the remote control2_bing.gif. Just in case it won't go all the way to normal state.
4. Turn-off the switch of your power surge like 5 times with an interval of 3-5 seconds.
5. Then repeat step 3 and 4.
6. These steps are done to over-ride the sleep mode.

Your not alone with this problem.
I had to fix mine. The warranty is less than impressive.
The trouble is going to be the Power Supply/Backlight Inverter board.
This is the picture of yours:

Fixing the board like I did seem to be the only option. If you need info on fixing it, let me know.

My emerson tv standby light is on the power light flashes twice

Mine stayed in stanby mode and all I had to do was to switch the plug to a different outlet. The power strip it was on wasn't providing enough power. It worked fine for a month before I had a problem.
