Thre is no DVD or VHS tape in the TV, but the screen gives the option to eject? Apparently the tv thinks there is one inside?? TV comes on for 5-10 seconds, then shuts off. Has anyone else had this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
Replace the ir diode (D1224) under the vcr section. its a clear looking led (bulb like) this solved my problem ... as it was previously suggested as one of the solutions. vcr know function as well as the rest of the tv---- you need to have some background in this work or it will be tough to do .......
But thanks for the help it took care of my problem
This problem can be solved by replacing the IR diode on the main board, D1224. It is leaky causing the tape end sensors to think there is a tape in the unit...... Good luck

Just a workaround, but I found that if you insert a tape in the VCR and then press STOP, that the tv will not turn off by itself. Kinda dumb, but so far it works.
I am afraid the set has a bad or broken tape transport, or better known as a bad tape carriage.

when turned on tv says eject then stop then it turns off. there is no dvd or video tape in the tv. how do i fix the problem?
Same problem but it DOES have a tape in the VCR already...can't get it out, and can't get the TV to stay on long enough to do anything about it....pushing the stop/eject button doesn't seem to work. Any other workarounds or do we just need to get my sister a new tv?
My TV isn't the exact same model but does the same thing. Some days it'll stay on for hours before it does the eject thing, other times it won't stay on. Sometimes a temporary solution is to unplug it and plug it back in, but it still only stays on for a short while. Other than that the TV works perfectly fine. HELP!
I have a MWC20T6 and it has the exact same problem. Thinks it has a VHS and shuts off in 5 seconds.
My daughter started watching a dvd at that time the televion shut off. When we turned it back on it had eject and the counter time like vcr mode on the tv. I unplugged it for 30 min then turned it back on. It played for afew minutes then went out again. The customer service # was no help she just wanted to make sure I knew it would cost me because as of xmas 07 the tv was 1 year old. Please offer any help.
I have the same problem with mine. I also bought my around Christmas, and I had the same problems with customer service. Like someone said on here, I found that if I stick a tape in the VCR, let it play a couple of seconds, and then press stop, it will play fine as long as I keep the tape in there.
Also, has anyone noticed the "R" and "C" beside "eject" in the top corner? I was wondering if that had anything to do with the problem. I tried asking customer service about it, but they said there was nothing they could do to help, and that they could give me information for repairs, but I would have to pay for parts.
I hate that everyone is having problems, but at the same time, it's nice to know my tv's not the only crazy one.
