Anyone with suggestion on how to fix this problem please answer! TV turns itself off, pops back on, and is stuck in a autochannel search. I think it has something to do with the front panel, but I repair computers not monitors.

Press down gently with the TV set unplugged on each one of the front panel button and make sure thy all feel the same, pushing easiness of the buttons, you may feel one or two that may be stuck a little or will not push down like the rest of the buttons, those are called tact switches and can very easy to get, easy to replace if you can solder ok,
Larry,
Thank you for responding. I tried buttons, all feel the same. For some reason the tv will play for a few minutes, turn itself off, then on, and start resuming channel search. It won't stop search mode. I changed with resetting the tv to FRNT and used the vcr to delete all channels but ch. 3. It worked for a short period, but then resumed channel search again.
one or more switches could still be bad even if they feel ok, common problem with these RCA SETS
