The thumping sound is one of the amplifiers autooscilating - this is caused by a failure of the control unit, itself most likely caused by overheating. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do, the unit must be tested to make sure the failure wasn't caused by a defective power source and the mainboard replaced. This is going to be expensive.
Get a quote before committing, it might be cheaper in the end to just get a new one.

Rtd315w wont do any thing,i plug it in and the blue lite comes on push power or open lite goes off and nothing works no display and sometimes a taping sound from speaker/fuse seems ok

If its under the 1 year warranty call 1800 252 6123 and they will do it no charge with any type proof of purchase, if over the 1 year they charge 45.00 maximum! and will repair it or replace it if it cant be fixed, then ship it back with a 1 year warranty, takes 4 weeks aproximately

I have a RCA RTD315W home theater system. Are the speakers suppose to work with regular TV? Or does it just work in DVD mode? If it is suppose to work with the TV do i need a HDMI cord to make it work?

Need help fixing

I had the same problem a couple years ago with mine. After letting it set for several months, I tried to plug it in again after moving into another house. All of a sudden, it started working again. That was 1 year ago, but just last week...it did it again. I noticed that it does this if it is left on for an extended amount of time (my wife goes to bed at night and leaves it on). I cannot find anything on how to fix it, and no warranty assistance from RCA. I'm purchasing a Sony today, but will hold onto the RCA in case it decides to work again.
