If it says no support then it can't read the computer. There is no way around this unless you have a RGB (this is a computer input port) input port on the TV

Sounds like harmonic interference. A technician with a logic analyser may be able to find you a solution. Got to be a design flaw.

Most likely you have a fault with the power supply board or main board. I would start with the power supply board. Does the power light come on when you plug in the set?

This sound like the power supply board is failing. The electrolytic capacitors on the board may need to be replaced.
IF YOU KNOW HOW TO WORK WITH ELECTRONICS REPAIR(soldering ) or have a friend with knowledge/skill you can fix it.
>Unplug the set.
>Remove the back cover.
>look at the capacitors on the power supply board. If the top of any of them are bulging up that is the problem.
>You will have to replace ALL the electrolytic capacitors except for the large one.
> Use ones with the same farad rating
> Use ones with the same or higher voltage rating
> Use high temperature rating
> Install one at a time to prevent mixup and keep the polarity correct.
> Leave a space between the PC board and the bottom of the capacitors for expansion. They heat up.
THIS IS AN INDUSTRY WIDE PROBLEM AFFECTING MANY COMPANIES AND PRODUCTS.
One source for some good capacitors is NTE. Try nteinc.com for a local outlet.
You can also search for other sources. Some companies even sell pre package kits of capacitors.

Hi,

We have the same problem and what worked for us (until now) is holding it in until it comes on. Used to be just a few minutes but now I prop a book next to it. Last time, I just left it on with a screen saver on my PC which worked until the power went out. I think it's a power supply issue.

You can download the manual from Polaroid here.

The reset button on TVs is a thing of the past. The small pop you heard was very likely a part blowing up, probably a capacitor. They are under lots of stress because manufacturers use parts that run very close to their maximum ratings (lower cost that way) and sometimes they just can't handle it. Without seeing the set I can't tell you any specific part to check, but it will probably be in the power supply. A service shop could check it out and give an estimate for repair, or you could open the set yourself and look for obviously popped parts.

You still have the protection of the Law on your side.
Products can still be deemed unfit for the purpose under the sale of goods act for up to 6 years.
Its up to you though to prove the fault was there when the T.V was supplied. Not that hard really!. You take it to a T.V. Repair agent (Yellow Pages) get a report on the fault (It had to have been there when it was made or it wouldnt have gone faulty unless you dropped it..) pay for your report as you can claim this back as well...
Go back to the retailer and tell him you wish to make a claim for the product for unsatisfactory quaility.

Visit Trading Standards Website for more info (See below)

• A claim can be pursued though the courts for up to six years providing it can be shown that the problem was due to the work not being carried out properly or the goods or materials used not being of satisfactory quality.

Here is the link for the manula you requested: http://www.polaroid.com/service/userguides/ce/lcd_tvs/tda-02610_tdx-02610_ug_en.pdf Please rate how helpful this was. Good Luck, and than you for using FixYa!

Joe from what you describe it sounds as if the closed captioning display is turning on either through the tv or cable box if your's has that capability. Go to the menu on the tv and go to the setup option, from there you should be able to locate the closed captioning option and turn it off or disable it. The same may need to be done with your cable box if it is closed captioning compatible. I hope this is of some assistance to you. If I can help in anyway please let me know.

I would return the tv for a replacement
it sound as if one of the transformers is arking internally. or you can replace the "Control module" but it is in very short supply
