I have the same television, mine would go on but no picture then goes off and repeat itself two or three times then shuts off completely , what to do?

My guess would be the bulb is bad.It's easy to replace but you may want to call a local tv repair place if you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself

Might be the bulb. Had alotta trouble with that t.v. big waste very expensive to fix and maintain. Pisses me off that they get away selling such sub par stuff at premium rates. Hope its just the bulb good luck

I would remove the internal rechargeable battery and unplug the power, after first shutting off the power switch on the tv. Put the battery back in and turn it on, see what happens.

The fact that you still have a picture means the bulb is working fine. You problem is probably just some settings that were inadvertently lost or changed. If I were you I would start by finding the answers to these two questions:1) Are all the inputs to the TV still assigned and functional? (Does the DVD player work; does the antenna or cable box work, etc.) This could indicate whether or not a reset occurred. If you find things named differently than before the bulb change then there are probably other settings that need to be changed to get your HD picture working.2) Was the image format inadvertently changed? There is a button on the remote that can do this and it could be the only issue.Hope that helps. The fact that you still have a picture means the bulb is working fine.

I would advise you to call the customer service on the back of of the TV. I have called them a couple of times and they have been extremely helpful.

Our Toshiba just started doing this. The picture freezes but audio continues as normal for about 10 seconds or longer then it shuts off. About 3 to 5 seconds later it turns itself back on. Did your problem start the same way.

Try unplugging the tv for 10 minutes then plugging it back in and holding the power button for 60 seconds on the tv itself to turn it on. Should hard reset and project.

On mine you hit the repeat button again and it disappears. Maybe unplug your tv and try it again?

Turn off the computer, plug the HDMI cable into both the computer and the TV, Turn on the computer.If you still have a problem, try testing the cable on something else like a PS3 or Xbox

I haven't had any problems with mine, but I did have a similar problem with another model and this is how it started before the whole screen went dark. I had a technician come by. He said it was the mother board and that he would fix it but he couldn't guarantee it wouldn't happen again. He said that it's best to replace the mother board, and if you have to do that you might as well buy another tv. I took a chance and he fixed the problem temporarily, then it died, so I threw it away and bought this LG. I've had it since July 2013 and it's worked fine. Mine is the same model in a 50-inch. I did buy the 5 year warranty just in case since it's new technology. With these smart tvs it's best to get the warranty because you never know. If it's still under warranty, you should return it and have them replace it before your warranty expires because once the mother board gives out it's too expensive to fix and you're better off buying another tv.

My set never had the picture issue prior to the issue of the tv switching off entirely and not coming back on. I tried the side power buttons, and I also called Toshiba customer support whom walked me through holding down the power button and unplugging the tv for a while, etc. They were unable to help, so they directed me to my local repair shop. Called them, they seemed helpful, were supposed to order a new power supply for the TV. Haven't heard back from them...but after leaving the tv unplugged for a day or two, I plugged it back in and its worked ever since like a charm...have no idea what the problem was, but it works now...just hope it stays this way.

My first bit of advice would be to isolate the source of the problem (is it the TV or converter?). Try hooking it up to another TV (or a friends, etc). Incidentally, I have mine hooked up to a Sony TV - works great (knock on wood)...Good luck...

I have the same TV. If the green and red lights blink and then the TV try's to reset itself, the bulb needs to be replaced. I have replace over 5 bulbs in the last 7 years. Make sure to purchase a bulb with high quality or else it will have a poor lighting effect to the picture..... good luck. I will never purchase a TV that requires bulb replacement.....

i just took mine into the shop for the same problem, very irritating hearing it turn on and off all the time just to start, it would take like 10 minutes for my tv to finally turn on, the technician at the shop said the power supply was bad and i wasn't getting enough power to the main board to turn the TV on, 200 bucks later, I am happy, fix it, it is worth it.

I think I may have a similar issue. I connected my TV, and I have no picture, no sound, or anything at all. The right light on the button right comes on and off when I hit the power button, but that's it. Can't get the menu or anything to work.

I returned it. The second identical TV that I ordered at the same time does not have the problem so I hope that the replacement being shipped to me is also okay. Thanks for letting me know that someone else has the same issue. Herberto

I found a partial workaround solution for my problem (like yours) of the unit turning off a few seconds after turning it on. I press (and hold) the Stop button, and then the On button, and continue to press them both until the blue SA-CD light and the blue MultiChannel light go off, and then back on again. After that, the unit works ! Except that the LCD panel remains blank. Many (perhaps all) of the front panel buttons work. I still need to experiment to see if the remote works, and to what extent. Sony gave me the choice of a refurbished unit, or to repair mine, under warranty. Anybody got an opinion on which is the way to go ?
