unplug the television...wait 10 seconds and then plug back in....if you listen carefully after 5-10 seconds you will hear a click sound (the same sound that you hear when you turn on or off) ...once you have heard it, turn the TV on again using the remote. Do not turn on until you hear the click. If this does not work, try again but turn the TV on again before you hear the click. I dont know why it happens but it is as if the TV gets confused as to whether its supposed to be on or off. Most of the time, the solution is to turn it on after the click so I would always try that first.

Bad caps in the power supply must be replaced .

hi right now samsung is the best tv maker out right these problem dont happen with samsung what would be good to do is call them and let them know your problem cause you have a year protection on it thats if it less than a year

I need to know how long do you have the tv?In the other word,approx. how many hours you have put into it?
Secondly,did you wall mounted the tv or setting it close the the area which there is not much room for the back of your tv to breath?

That high pitched noise you're hearing is the power supply telling you that it has too much of a load on it and lowered its operating frequency which in effect cuts its output way down! Normally you don't hear any thing since the power supply operates at a frequency that's beyond human hearing. In an RCA this indicates more than likely that your horizontal output transistor is shorted and this short was caused by the flyback transformer shorting. This is a common happening with RCA's You'd need to take to a tv shop and have it checked out. Stargazer
