The TV will not come on. I turn it own and the power light will come on but it will not stay on. The power light will come on three times and blink of. I can't get it to stay on. I have worked with on occasions and get it to come on but when I turned it on this time I could't get it to stay on. Help me.
I have the same problem

I press the power button. It lights up for 3-5 seconds and goes off with no picture at all. It will not stay on.

Founded user manual (troublshooting on page 53) may be useful.

No picture, no sound but TV is on
• Maybe the cable/air function is set to the wrong position.
• Maybe a vacant channel is tuned.
• If watching VCR (connected only through antenna input), make sure TV is tuned to channel 3 or 4 – same as CH3/4
switch on VCR. Also check to make sure TV/VCR switch on VCR is in the correct position
