I have A Pioneer SDT50W1 rear projection TV which is about 11 years old. It is in A1 condition but recently I have had a problem when turning on the set. When I press the on off switch on the front of the set it clicks on with a green light showing but then immediately clicks off showing a red light as if going into standby mode. ( I have tried then turning the set on from the remote handset but nothing happens). The set only does this on some occassions. I had the set on for most of the day a week ago turning on and off through the day. The next morning tried to turn on the set but immediately clicked off. Tried several times that day but same response. After leaving a few days TV all ok again. This has been happening over the last 3 month or so. Any ideas? it's driving me mad.

The most likey cause of this is poor solder connections either in the power suply area or the convergence circuit area. If you can solder and are comfortable working inside the set where there are potetially dangerous high voltages (even when unplugged), you maight be able to resolve this yourself. Try resoldering any connections on the boards that appear grainy or have rings. Update this with your results.

Thanks,
Dan

Pioneer Elite Pro 100 TV, turns on, NO VIDEO, won't turn off

Retire it? Are there no television servicers in your area? Being a tech wizard seems to be a requirement for merely hooking up and operating some systems, but repair is still a valid option for most electronic items. Consult an experienced electronic technician specialized in television repair, another 10 years of operation is possible. Needless disposal only depletes our landfill space.

Pioneer SDT50W1 rear projection TV clicks off when switched on.

Hey dudes...even i hav had the same problem that too with the same model specified here..Its a problem actually concerned with the power circuit boards of the tv. Its best to get it checked by an authorized technician. For me I had to replace a transistor on one of the boards. But after that my tv came up with a new problem....the colours appear like rainbows! Could nyone xplain y dis is happening?
