If 'no Disc' display is there, surely the laser pickup unit or its loading mechanism will have the fault. Check it.

There is and normally it is located inside the power supply board, where the power cord goes in. But, watch out for hazardous high voltage even if the power plug is removed.

Change the input to some other you are sure works. Then if the problem persists, this might need attention by a qualified service technician.

I see so many here with no sound/nopicture issues:ISSUES: 1. IF sound main fuse/s are good.2. If no power or standby check main fuse, standby power supply and any signsof damage you can see---burnt parts etc.3. almost all these sets the troubleshooting involves checking voltages on the main power board to narrow down theproblem.4. Be safe and if you do not know what you are doing don't open the set.Answers to issues:1. RE:fuses---if a blown fuse is found get a good replacement(not the genericones like Radio Shack). Many fuses are special even aside from amperage--Don'tput a higher rated amperage fuse in the set for any reason.2. RE: power supply in set: if total dead aside from main fuse the set uses astandby power supply that runs 7/24 and a main supply (some are combined andsome not.Here aside from checking fuses you want to examine all the filter caps on thepower/standby to see if any are puffed up or buldged up in some fashion--Iattach a photo of a good one---top should be silver metal and PERFECTLY flatand have no brown material coming out on top or bottom.What happens in the standby area is they use caps with too low a voltage rating(saves money) which causes them to fail in a year or two---the standby runs7/24 and the heat dries out the caps and they fail.3. Trouble shooting consists of the above and then at some point you have to buyand try a board to see if it fixes it or not.4. Safety first--no TV set is worth getting injured or even killed over.If set isopened at least look for puffed up and bad caps like in this photo

the inverter is the usual cause of that issue, some westinghouse models have the inverter combined with the power board. You can get the replacement board and free tech assistance from www.tvrepairworld.com

Let verify first to narrow down to where the problem can be. First, make sure the MUTE or SAP function is not activated, then check the on screen sound set up menu to make sure the speakers are not set to OFF. If the setting is OK, then attach the powered PC speakers to the Audio Line out RCA jacks (Red and White) to see if you can get the sound there, if you do, then the problem can be in the power amp circuits, if you do not get the sound at RCA jacks, then the problem can be in the sound processor circuit. Please post back what you find.

Plug your hdmi cable into the hdmi slot on the box then into your set. If your box doesn't have one then you either have to upgrade your box or use another method.

The most obvious reason is an overheating issue in the Power Supply board. There are other ideas here, but you need to take it to a television engineer to diagnose https://www.google.com/search?q=television+will+suddenly+turn+off+every+4+minutes ..
