Hello, I am having a problem with my RCA SDTV 27V414T. It shuts off and then turns back on by itself. I've called Thomspn/RCA and they said to unplug it for an hour and it should help. Well, it didn't. Unless my TV is unplugged, it will do it all day and all night. Is there any solution what so ever to this problem? If so, what is it?
Is it a steady on and off with a timed cycle to it or does the set just go off at random and start back up again with no clue when it will happen?
Goes off and on at random. No timers have been set on it. The time is'nt even set for those timers to work.
No I dont mean timer. Is the shutting on and off at random or is it steady or at random and does it come back on right away. When the TV sert is working, try turning up the volume loud and see if it goes on and off then. if it does then the regulation in the power supply nis the problem.
It goes on and off at random. It has spurts to where it will stay on for about 15 seconds and then shut off for about 15 seconds. and then there are times it will stay on for about 45 minutes and then shut off for about 30 seconds to 5 minutes. And yes it still does it with the volume up loud. I've had it plugged into the wall outlet, the cable box, a surge protector and even a different outlet. How can the regulation in the power supply be fixed?
Does it turn itself on in the middle of the night?
What \I was asking you was, when the set is working fine, turn up the volume and see if it starts to fail.
