TV turns on, then turns itself off about 2 seconds later.

I have a Mitsubishi WS-65413 which started to have this problem just today. When we turn the TV on, the green light comes on, and then about 2 seconds later, the TV powers itself off again. I have tried recycling power, but that didn't help. (mikeyfix says to try unplugging the convergence board, but I don't see how color convergence could have anything to do with this problem. Am I missing something?)

Set has a self diagnostic---after set does shut down press and hold MENU AND DEVICE(INPUT) buttons on front of set for 5 seconds----if 2 blinks, a pause and 2 more blinks: this is short protection error code---The set does use 2 Stk394-250 and each is protected by a pico fuse in the power supply---if either fuse is blown the set will shut down(it detects no voltage or missing voltage;) It is not uncommon for a shorted IC to cause this problem; if you locate the STK's look carefully at the resistors around them---if any are discolored or burnt---you have found your problem.

I have a Mitsubishi tv ws 65413 that when you turn it on 5 sec later it shuts off, I called a tech today he said the tv is shot and do not make parts any ideas??

yes, if set comes on and shortly after shuts down do this:

On front of set press and hold both the menu and input (some may call latter device) for five seconds and release.

Watch power light which should blink two digit error code:

2 blinks, 2 blinks a pause and then repeat is the most common.

What is error code?
This is a self check feature built into the set to see where problem is.

Tv wont turn on

hold the menu and input/device buttons for 5 seconds and it will blink you a 2 digit code
1-2 normal operation
2-3 i believe is short circuit protection = probably a convergence failure
here is a link to my tutorial

Tv will turn on and turn off in seconds

TRY the self check it should have: when it shuts off on the front of the set push MENU and INPUT(sometimes called device) both for 5 seconds and release both buttons.

Power light should blink a two digit error code like:

2 blinks and a pause and 2 lbinks


let me know what code you get and I will tell you what it means.

When i turn my TV on green light comes on timer turns off

Hi my name is Roety,
I can help you with your issue ,
Most likey you need the convergence ICs replaced.
A repairman would charge about $350 to replace them
Voltage checks and a visual would be needed to determine exactly what is bad in your TV

The industry uses PTS corporation for board repairs and exchanges. You should be able to find them on-line. You will need the part number off your circuit board to check their price list. They also have tech support but I don't know if it's available to just anyone.
