Sound but picture is barely visible on Sylvania flat screen

I have Sylvania flat screen which I got a couple of years ago. Last year I went to Iraq. Up to that point it was working just fine. When I came back I left the military and am currently moving to another location. During that time, the TV was never used. Tonight I plugged it in and there is sound. But after a brief flash that shows what channel its on, the screen goes black. My friends brother says he can just barely make out the words of the menu option when I put the menu on but you have to be right in front of it to see it. Is this fixable and how?

No longer has picture - voice still working - can it be fixed or is it worth fixing?

Not knowing brand and model number most of these sets have a 4-5 year life and parts for a set of this age may not be available.

The risk in repairing a set this old is it may just fail again and again.

I have a VIZIO VO47LFHDTV10A that is less than 4 years old. Last week the screen went blank but the sound is OK. The sound is fine on all inputs but no picture. Another TV hooked up to the same power and...

Good day!!!!

If the reset is not work the problem could be the inverter board found inside the TV..

When you open the back cover of your TV by unscrewing it..After that the inverter board become visible.

This is the sample picture of inverter board:

After you replace that board your TV back to normal operation..

Hope it helps..

That's a very old model to be only 1 year old?

It needs a Z-Sustain PCB anyway.

Camera does not react

I quote: "A couple of days ago after using it when trying to see the pictures on the camera the LCD did not show anything. The lens reacted and even take pictures but nothing was visible on the LCD screen."

That means that there was a problem either with a LCD display or with ribbon cable.

Now:"I tried charging the battery and removing it from the camera, now the camera only does a bit sound when switching on but nothing else, the lens does not even come out."

That means that the ribbon cable had probably shorted, now the camera may be furtherly damaged.

The camera must be disassembled to access the LCD and fix the problem.
The repair must be done by an experienced technician, as to access the LCD you need to remove both covers.

Sylvania 27 inch stereo flat screen tv

This problem sounds like a short inside the picture tube itself unless a driver transistor failed that drives the red gun in the CRT. You may have to take it to an authorized repair facility if the picture tube is still in warranty.
