Hitachi 50inch Ultra Vision will turn off on its own, maybe stay on for about 20 min. then go off. Will take a minute or two to turn back on and then again will turn off. Picture is fine when on.
I have the same problem , bought new in 96, two weeks later tv went dead, took 2 weeks to train people to fix it, Hitachi gave me a 5 year warranty, this is the first problem in 12 years, tv turns on then shuts off then it takes several minutes of power on, power off, finally tv stays on, only happens when tv cold..

have the whole unit replaced if you are still in warranty surely they will agree if they see it on your service record. talk to a supervisor if you have to.
If the set has not been serviced in several years and the picture slowly got darker and or duller looking you may just need to try something simple.
With the set unplugged and the back cover removed look for the three lens----I presume it is a older set called rear projection and not a DLP, the model number would tell me which it is.
If older you will find three large black lens near the middle, clean them free of dust etc with a lens cloth and check the picture again.
I tried all of the above and no luck but THEN we realized we had it plugged in to the surge protector not the battery backup. Once we plugged it in to the battery backup it powered up like a champ! Good luck!
There are a few things in this model to cause this. Most common is the vertical circuit, or the regulator circuit for the power supply. both of these will run you $300-$500 if you call a repairman. If you know how to use a meter and solder I might be able to assist you in the repair yourself. The vertical circuit is VERY easy to repair if you know how to solder. Let me know so i can help!
