Question about RCA Scenium HD65W20 65" Rear Projection Television
If you're NOT still under warrantee you should at least open the TV and look for a blown fuse near where the power cable enters the set. A lot of times you can buy replacement fuses at a local electronic or hardware store and they're easy to replace. Check the fuse. If it is blown, it will be obvious and make sure that the set is unplugged before replacing it. If it blows again, or if it is not blown, your problem is probably in the 'X' volt regulator and you will need professional help with the repairs. You can also check the board where the components are mounted and resoled any that look bad. Brief power outages may cause the TV to turn off on its own. If you are using a surge protector, try connecting the set directly to the wall outlet. In your case it could caused by a blown fuse, a leaky diodes or a bad solder joint at the horizontal drive transformer. All can be replaced at a local electronic or hardware store and they're easy to replace If this does not correct the problem, you may need to have your TV serviced. good luck!

For the Mitsubishi, there seems to be two common power-on problems:
1. If the green power light keeps blinking (wait at least two min. to ensure it doesn't go off). It is 60% chance you can fix the problem by replacing the DM module capacitors. If you search for this problem, you will find the solution. It takes about 2-4 hours and $20 to fix.
2. If the green power light blinks for about 1-2 min and stops (normal operation). It could be a stuck on button. Disconnect the wire connecting the front panel then try using the remote to power the TV.
Good luck.

May need a new bulb if the power button flashes and the little lamp button also flashes.

If its not a blown fuse or if you replace the fuse and it is still blowing, you should try to check the H-Output transistor it starts with 2scxxxx or 2sdxxxx screwed on a heat sink near the high voltage x-former or flyback. good luck too.

I have been asking around and this is common with this set.My HD65W20 that I have owned for 5 years just did the same thing,so I called A repairmen and the bad news,was that the set probably was not worth repairing,because the $1,500.00 DV2 module was fried,as seems to be real common with these when they are only a few to 5 years old.I called thompson and explained that I had paid $3,500.00 for this set,only 5 years ago,and they did not even want to listen,be cause they only warranty parts for 1 year,end of story.........Since getting married in 1975,I have purchased in excess of over 30 new,high-end RCA products,but never again.The best part of the whole story is yet to com....At the time when I was looking for another tv,it was onlt because my current $3,000.00 RCA tv failed because a quite evident manufacturing defect in one of the curcuit boards and because the warranty had lapsed,RCA was giving me a big run around about getting it repaired,So, the dealer contacted RCA and they sent a Rep to town and He promised me that he would get the part ordered for my old TV right away and get it repaired,so I really should'nt be afraid to but another new RCA.Well,after I got the new TV and PAID FOR IT,I was long for gotten and hade to pay over $500.00 out of pocket to replace the board that the factory had screwed up.... Now they are dropping the ball agian.The best advise that I can give,is to move on with your life and refrain from doing buissiness with LOWLIFE companies like RCA again... [email protected]

Television set red power light is on and blinking but am unable to see picture and/or power on or off.
tv will go on after plug is "pulled & plugged" in again! and, then it
starts all over again. goes off after 3-4 minutes.
i have a 44inch 44sz21rd, it is 2 yrs old, At the end of last year the tv would not turn on and the bulb was replaced. Now for the last 3-4 months the amber light and green light stay on together. Also since today it would not turn at all, and when it did turn on the manual channels or the remote would not work. Now i just leave it on permanently. I have left the tv off over night to see if it will reset itself, but still the same. I have taken out the batteries to try to rebooot it, still the same. Please help.
I have posted my "no power-no nothing" dead issue with my RCA D52w20 before and would like to know how to check/replace any fuses that might have blown. Thanks in advance....
my tv will not turn on.
The indicator light in the front of my tv blinks continually. I unplugged the set and plugged it back in then heard a series of 3 or 4 rapid clicks and the light bigins to blink again. When the power button is pushed, the light goes solid then begins to blink continually again and the tv makes no "click" noise as if to start/turn on like it usually does when the remote power button is pushed. There is no picture or anything.
tv turned itself off. can't restart - all you hear is clicking.
SWITCH ON BY REMOTE, RED LIGHT TURNS TO FLASHING AMBER,BETWEEN 6 AND 20 FLASHES AND THEN GOES BACK TO RED
Tv will not turn on. The lamp light and standby light stay on at the same time.
I turned the t.v. off to read, when I turned it back on the red power light came on but nothing else. no picture, no sound.
Mine just blinks green, no picture.....nothing. Push the power button and it blinks red then turns off. At first I had 2 blinking red lights according to manual it indicated a malfunction #9 what ever that is.
I have a problem with my Zenith TV We purchased TV Dec. 05...Thought we were getting a good TV...Now no sound and no picture...little red light comes on..and then goes out...then turns back on...etc..
We checked the main fuse with meter.. it is still good..
Any more suggestions...Sounds to me from reading everyones problem---maybe there should be someting (recall?) Zenith could do...We pay high prices for things to last 2 years???
have no power, you can push in on power button and hold it all it will do is click
My television used to shut off on its own after about two or three hours of use. I would have to wait about an hour before turning it back on. But now, the last time it shut off I can't get it to turn back on. My power led light blinks green four times, then goes to red and shuts off. While it is green I could hear the TV trying to power up but it never does.
I fell asleep while watching tv ( 60" rear projection mitsubishi ) when I woke up the tv was off. When I try to turn it back on the green light blinks once with a brief sound then nothing.
TV will not turn on.
MY TV WAS COMING ON AND THEN WOULD GO BACK OUT SHORTLY, IT DON THAT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS. THEN IT WORK OK FOR ABOUT THREE DAY AND THEN IT WENT OUT AND DID NOT COME BACK ON
I have a WD 65732 65" Mitsubishi rear projection TV. I bought this TV about a year and a half ago, and didn't get the extended warranty. Anyway, my wife was down stairs watching tv, and then poof, nothing. I unplugged the tv, and plugged it back in, and it came back on. I didn't really think too much about it until the next day when I tried turning it on, and again nothing. Initially I would get audio, but no video. A day later I don't even get the audio. Tried calling Mitsubishi about this problem, and mentioned that I received a letter from them about a thermal sensor issue and they'd extend the warranty on the tv. They said they'd contact a service provider for repairs, but if the thermal sensor wasn't the problem, I'd have to pay the bill. I spoke with the repairman, and got a real nasty attitude. He wants me to bring it to his shop, but what's to prevent him from reeming me one? Anyway, I'm looking for any advice anyone has about this problem before I end up buying a new tv in repair work.
I have a 60p8241 Magnavox rear projection tv, the problem I am having is that the tv was on but could not change the channel or turn it off. I unplugged it and plugged it back in now the red light or anything will not come on, do you have any suggestions?
Won't power on with remote or via power button. Tried unplugging to no avail. Tried alternate power cord and alternate outlets. No pic, no sound, nothing.
nop sound or video but power light comes on
