Hello,The most common cause of this type of power issue is a failure of the filter capacitors on the power supply board. Below is a picture of the board with the faulty capacitors circled, there are 2 more under one of the big black heat sinks. The board can be repaired by replacing the bad capacitors. Below the picture is a link to a kit of the correct parts for the board repair if you want to do the job yourself.http://www.ccl-la.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=240I hope this helps you out.

maybe your wire came lose in the back of your TV, look in back to see all connections.

Try the audio and video inputs on the set to see if have picture there with a DVD etcAlso possible if using a box or receiver in line they can cause this==I ask as I do not know what you have hooked up.If a box is used and rear inputs are ok unplug set and box for several minutes and plug back to see if a reboot helps.

The set will need to be serviced, it has a internal problem !

If it goes on for a very short time (a secong or so) it could be the power suply unit.

I would try unplugging everything, then plug back in. Try new batteries in remote if there is one. This sounds like TV is not getting signal to turn on, so I would look carefully at remote power and 'eye' and power button connections. Good luck!

If it has a format feature it will usually only be on the original remote--if using a box of some type look for the feature to also be there.

Metric M5 or M6, you can get them from ACE hardware, HD, or Lowe's for about 20 cents each, the length will depend on the thickness of the mounting plate, by the way, when you buy the wall mounting kit, it will come with a bag of screws for mounting the TV to the bracket.

Hello,

Power supply board just die.It can be dead at anytimes.Tries websites Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

can you tell us the model number of your universal remote control?

Change out the electrolytic caps on the power supply board, or the power supply itself.

I'm assuming that you have tried to cure the tv by reseting it from the menu and it didn't helped.
The symptoms you describe indicate that the image processor no longer decodes the colors correctly. Since it's glued on the motherboard it means that the entire board will have to be replaced. This is a job for a pro, i think it's time to call one.
