Channel keeps changing

This is a long shot, but give this a try. Try doing a channel set up. Go through menu, and then look for something like SET UP,

CHANNEL set up, and AUTO / Manual.

Select AUTO, and let it scroll through all the numbers until it stops. This will lock in all of the channels that have a strong signal. Then get out of Set up and see if that does anything.



If you have already preformed your set up before, please let me know and we can go a different route to see if I can help solve your problem with the TV.

Thanks.

Ok, now we are getting somewhere. By telling me that the tv turns on, and off by itself when you hit the power button on the tv, lets me know that there is a good chance that the power switch or channel switch on the TV itself is either worn or the board that the switches are mounted on is either cracked or has a bad solder point.

At this point the only thing you can do is Hit all of the buttons one at a time, and listen for the CLICKING Noise. You should hear a click when you push the button and usually a slight click when you release it. Hit all of the buttons, power, channel up/down/ volume up/down etc and listen for the clicks. (Focus on the Channel UP and the Power Button more.)

What you are trying to do, is to get the switches to the home position (Out position)

If you are successful, then I would ONLY Use the remote control to do anything with the TV and put a piece of paper over the switches on the TV so that nobody else touches them.)



The only other solution would be to get the TV repaired.



Sorry, I couldnt be of any more help.

IM hoping that you can get the TV working with just the Remote control.

Best Wishes,

Good luck.
