Colby is unsatisfactory on warranty problems. This TV was rarely used, only during breakfast, and failed at the 12-month mark. An internet search shows that this model has a bad resistor problem that keeps the TV from coming on. They wanted me to pay for the service, and the shipment to and from their distant location.

Coby puts terrible power supply units in their sets, yours has probably gone bad. They need to recall this set as well I have a similar issue with it where if I let the unit fall asleep it will refuse to turn back on until I unplug it for ~30seconds, maybe try to unplug and let the capacitors drain (leave unplugged for 30-60 seconds). Good luck!

I hate to tell you that my Coby Remote broke and no other remote would work. So I tossed the TV in the garbage. Sry

It goes off at the time you set. Or close to that that. I didn't notice premature turn off, of that's the questions.

sounds like you have a defective product. Mine turns on easily. I have had no problems with mine.

okay, I was assuming the display would go blank after 5 mins. to save battery but I guess it always stays on and shows the time.thanks

I have not had that problem with my set, suggestion could your set be pre-programmed to shut off after 4 hours. Review your owners manual or the set up screen

I believe I have had that situation in the form of unplugging the device for a minute while on. As I remember, it did not reset to "off." Sorry I can't be more specific. If I remember, I'll try it at home tonight.

the red light is supposed to stay on, thats fine. but the sound going off in 1 hour is not normal, I get at least 2 hours on mine. I think you got a defective unit

Try the reset procedure--unplug for 10 minutes. I've not had this problem with this model.

There is a timer on the unit. Make sure it has been turned off. If it isn't it will shut off before it reaches 50.... I know you said it runs longer and still doesn't drop down to 50. Make sure you read instructions and check all settings. I had this problem in the beginning... I had to read the booklet again.... Hope this helps Mine works great

Auto shut off kicks in after 60 seconds of idle. No. You have to touch it/use it within the 60 secs period.

I held the play button which is the middle button down for about 4 seconds. You do the same thing to shut it off. When power I'd turned on or off you will see it blink red about 3 or 4 times. Good luck

Sorry, I haven't had that problem and can't give specific advice. What happens when you turn it off and then on again? Doing that often clears a problem with a variety of electronic devices.

I have not had that problem. I just pushed the same button to turn off that turned it on. Sorry I can't help you.

Try the light on a fully 'charged' battery. There is a 'shut off' timer that will shut it off but it should be longer than a minute or two. Perhaps the timer is defective.

Mine does the same thing. It stays on indefinitely, so must be a timer issue. I have contacted Amazon and they are sending a replacement.

I have had that happen but not often. I figured it must get "overheated" and it needs a cool down period. It will come back on after a short time. If this is the case--it's really a safety factor.

Are you sure that you are setting the timer to the correct shutoff time? One press of the button turns the switch on indefinitely. A second press of the button sets the timer to one hour. Check the lights on the timer panel to make sure that you are setting it properly. If you are setting it properly and it still doesn't shut off it must be defective.
