Yes. Its probably a stuck button on the TV's front panel. Try pushing or wiggling each button on the panel. It could be the channel up/down buttons or volume up/down, menu, etc.

When there is a button that is making slight contact, it keeps the microprocessor busy attending to the command its erroneously receiving from the offending button and may not allow other functions to work when this occurs.

It doesn't matter which button is stuck, any of the symptoms you describe can happen.

RCAP46924 turns on by itself then constantly changes channels . Remote will not work.

Check for a sticky channel up or down button on the TV.
That will cause that problem.
Hope this helps.
