Ur Main Tuner signal board is dead.Replaced this board will fix this problems.Tries websites Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a refurbish Tuner signal board for the replacement.

Ur lamp is dead,replaced the lamp.

this may be a problem on the 5 volt line in the set, there is a constant 5 volts running through it even when it is off....so long as its plugged in.
There may be condensors that are open on the 5 volt line.. after they warm up they start to function more proper. but being that they are leaky..they are no longer doing thier job of keeping voltage steady until they warm up.

i do not condone this but if you were to open it up , im willing to bet you have a series of swollen or blown condensors that are not doing thier job on the pwb (power supply board) if thats the case its a 30 minute fix for a technician. Id like to discuss this with you further , i do have a couple questions that may help me diagnose this.

Hi I had the same problem with one of my TV's and I know this may sound daft, but mine was literally a signal problem, got a booster, re-tuned the DVB tuner, hey presto. You might not be so lucky, and may have an aerial issue, in which case, that's a job for the aerial chap, which incidentally I also had to have sorted.

Good day sir/maam, the trouble is caused (possibly) by the failure of the IF amplifier system of your TV, it is usually sets of transistors, or an IC that controls the gain of your TV. Have your service repair man check the section fro the tuner stage to the IF stages. chances are the IC is not functioning properly. Hope this helps.

Call for Waranty service,video backlight have prob.is dying.

It's the B board.... (Logically speaking) !!!!!!!!!!!!

If the Standby light is blinking at the front panel of the TV, it seems that there is an internal malfunction occurred in the TV.
I will forward a link to a page where you can get more information and troubleshooting steps for this issue.

Please perform the steps provided on the page. If the issue still persists then service of the TV is required.

Do you know where your remote is?I have had it where it would do that for days and then I would find my remote was wedged into my chair somewhere and when I sat down it would press a button.Either that or check the wires in the remote and TV.For the changing channels do you look at your remote when you press buttons to switch channels?There is a common button,which,when pressed,will surf through all of your tv's channels.

How old is the TV?After a certain number of years the pixles will degrade and around key areas they will turn a rough color.Pink green orange blue,you name it.Otherwise It could be that it got damaged in a shipping process and then there wouldnt be much you could do except take it into the retailer where you purchased it and ask if the problem is fixable.

hi friend,,,,,,,
i think due to high voltage resistor in dma board has blasted,,,,,
did u see any burnt marks,,,,,,,,,reply me

thank u,,,,,,,,

It sounds like the TV is in overscan mode, thus chopping off part of the screen. Check your manual to see how you can change this mode. The mode also might be in 'Zoom', thus chopping off part of your picture

are you able to see the picture in a dark room ? does it appear bright enough then ? if so the lights behind your screen have dimmed or gone out completely. this may just be the power supply for the lights or your lcd panel may need to be replaced

the new lcd tv you have will pick up hd channels. run the autoprogramming for the channels for sd and hd. be prepared for about a 20 minute wait

yes you will. either install an outside antenna or get a good amplified indoor antenna. try your old antenna first, but when your picture freezes or it says something like " weak signal " you will need that new antenna

either its hooked up wrong..in the wrong slots, or its not plugged in all the way, those are two of the most common problems

You can connect the RCA plugs to the speakers. But, as for using the red/white Audio outputs you may need an amplifier, those connections are used when going into a dvd or vcr that boosts the signal in their own environment. If you have a connection for headphones on the TV you might have better luck there for the speakers.

This is really easy. A pair of simple bookshelf speakers will do nicely. Simple speaker wire can be run to them, to extend whatever cable they have. If it's only screw terminals they have, so much the better.
You'll have to attach RCA plugs to the ends going to the TV, but that's easy.
